POWDERS....AND LIQUIDS FOR THE SICK.
He's pretty menacing.
"You and your primitive knives and your weapons, I'll teach you what killing really means." [link]
That's a great line.
I do care a little bit (I like pretty starships), but yeah... I often wonder how some fans can obsess about little details on a starship and why a fictional design in a fictional universe has a problem that shouldn't make it work. But hardly pay attention to the stories, the plot, the acting, the characters.
And, again, every fan can and should get out of Star Trek what makes them happy, I will never judge that.
But for me personally, all it will be is 'oeh, prett ship' and back to plot/story/character/acting.
I'm sure there must be people like that, but I can't imagine there are many of them.
The Daedalus is what I fly around in on Star Trek Online. I love it.
I do wish ENT had shown a couple of them and established that they predated the NX-class and that's why they looked the way they did.
As critical as I am of most TMP fashions I will always say this uniform is pure fire. A uniform so good even the Kelvin Timeline had its own version seen in two different films.
Wait, that's not controversial. That's just the truth.

Agree - the two-tone Admiralty uniform was definitely the best of the lot in that film. At least on the Starfleet side. The TMP Klingon suits were so well done, the design remained relatively unchanged for over 20 years of shows and movies.
A perfect nod to "The Cage" as well.I love the TMP away mission jackets.
It’s very interesting. If you look at the uniforms between The Cage, WNMHGB and TMP, the uniform colors are very similar. Very muted, earthy colors. When you add in the technicolor Gold/avocado green, blue and red from the series, that’s where the issue comes into play.
I wish that had continued through into the Monster Maroon era as the flag officer’s dress uniform.As critical as I am of most TMP fashions I will always say this uniform is pure fire. A uniform so good even the Kelvin Timeline had its own version seen in two different films.

Interesting how the Dominion War-era dress uniform echoes that same color pattern, too.
No. And that's my point. The Borg Queen's existence negates the need for Locutus. She already was the unifying embodiment of the collective. She was the one voice. She could access the collective memories of all humans assimilated up to that point (and after) and fill every requirement the Borg intended for Picard as Locutus.
Yeah, I think the more logical reason to have something like Locutus is as a deliberate form of psychological warfare to soften particularly tough resistance. There's no reason the Borg shouldn't be willing to use that idea.
Only problem is they used it rather too early. The Federation hadn't proven itself so shockingly intractable until they stopped the BoBW invasion.

The Borg probably would've won if they hadn't been dicking around with Picard.
She was shy back then. Then she assimilated Dale Carnegie.
