What was STNG's best "action" sequence!?

[Kelthaz]

I enjoyed seeing the Enterprise's final stand in Yesterday's Enterprise. Riker getting killed by the exploding tactical console and Picard leaping over the railing to continue firing phasers while the bridge burns all around him. Yeah, that was cool.

I like the one from The High Ground and I think it has some pretty cool music. As a kid I loved the fleet scenes in Redemption II

Oh yes! Agreed, a long one for STNG

This is tough. The earlier seasons had more action scenes but they all seemed staged and cardboard. Actors standing completely still like action figures and waiting as the beam is drawn from the phaser.

I like the escape sequence in The Hunted and the similar misdirection sequence in the much maligned Game.

Maybe Worf's fight with Duras in Reunion or the sequence in Gambit where Picard and Riker are 'robbing' the Enterprise.

How about the main phaser arrays from both sides of the saucer firing on the Birds-of-Prey in "Yesterday's Enterprise" and one of them exploding and a second flying threw the explosion?

Or the three little Mars perimeter defnese ships encountering the Borg cube in "The Best of Both Worlds: Part II" and three quick shots from the cube that descimate the vessels.

Then of course the action scenes of Wesley being hunted down in the Enterprise. It combines three great things: chases, good dramatic scoring, and Wesley being hunted down aboard the Enterprise.

Say what you will about Descent, but that opening with the feral Borg, & Data muscling one by its throat, is petty bad ass

I also like when a character is in a lurch & comes thru it. Examples like, Geordi trapped on Galorndon Core, using his visor to see metal ore in the soil, & using his phaser to melt it into climbing spikes. Another is Riker totally going on the offensive in the climax of Schisms. I'm not a huge Riker fan, but dude is on point in that scene

Roga Danar in The Manhunt. My numero uno choice by miles. Takes ten men and one irate Klingon to subdue that guy in a corridor brawl.

Ten? I counted five. O'Brien, two no-names(one skinny with the face a stoner and one stocky guy with grey hair), plus Riker and Worf. And Worf looked pretty even with Roga solo later in the episode as well, with Roga dropping some metal boxes on him to escape. (Why someone would keep such massive metal boxes near a ledge I will never know)

My favorite would be Nemesis - Scimitar vs Enterprise and Warbirds. I also like Worf vs Duras.
