I hope they'll finally establish as canon ---
--- that the Gorns' only vulnerability is to huge boulders. So the Enterprise triumphs by chucking a meteor at the Gorn ship with the tractor beam!

Made of styrofoam.
Only if attached to the ground.
Tri-styrofoamium
Quadrostyrofoaminium.
Quinta…err…pfft…
In this era of Trek, it's photon-styrofoaminium, but by the end of DS9, we'll see the introduction of quantum-styrofoaminium, which will be really bad news for the bad guys.
Meh. ENT kinda screwed that pooch in Season 4 with Archer learning about them, and I'm not talking about Mirror Archer.
Knowing their name is one thing. Seeing them is another.
We'll see.
No pun intended.

Cool indeed. They should be cold blooded.
Check it and see.
Their ships can travel at Warp 8.3.

They are?
They were an unknown species whose territory the Federation accidentally encroached upon when they set up the Cestus III colony during the course of events in “Arena”. But shit, (NX-01) Enterprise ran into the Ferengi, the Gorn, the Romulans (who cloaked), holodecks and a bunch of other stuff that they shouldn’t have.
Fuck it… I like the Gorn and hope they go back to resembling the TOS version as opposed to the ENT version, if they even show them.

The ENT version can be explained as being the way they looked in the Mirror Universe but even in that scenario the 2005 television budget CGI did that Gorn few favors. That Gorn looked good at maybe two angles: above Mirror Archer in the shadows and prone on the corridor floor.
Here's the thing about Arena, Kirk personally doesn't know about the Gorn, he's on the planet and out of contact with the ship when he finds out their name. That doesn't mean the Federation doesn't know there is a power out there called the Gorn.
I'm curious if SNW will be able to thread the needle.
