    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    Captain Maxwell was another, also from TNG, who attacked Cardassian ships and outposts after the treaty was signed.

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    Fair enough. Diplomacy might be more accurate. So, perhaps another question to ask is: If you were writing things, how would you approach the Post-Dominion War Alpha Quadrant? What stories would you want to tell?

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    Urgh. Sorry, I kind of killed the discussion. My bad. It is kind of weird that in Star Trek, with such a focus on big interstellar politicking, that we rarely get to see anything of the government of the Federation. I know that the shows are focused on adventure mainly and talking politics can...

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    That said, the Trek novels were pretty awful too. In detailing the Post-Dominion War galaxy, urgh. Especially what they did with the President of the Federation, Min Zife: https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Min_Zife The Tezwa deal was incredibly stupid, a hamfisted attempt to somehow make...

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    I don't disagree that it would be nice to focus on newer enemies, but let's be honest: The Borg are iconic for Star Trek now. It'd be like never having Daleks in Doctor Who or Darksiders in Star Wars: You gotta have them because their concepts are so interesting. That said, doing the same thing...

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    Honestly though, the Post-Dominion War Alpha Quadrant is fascinating if you're A: a fan and B: a good writer. Cardassia is occupied and being rebuilt under Allied supervision. The Klingons are conquering smaller worlds to rebuild. The Romulans are in chaos from the Hobus Supernova. The...

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    I doubt "Picard" will capture anything but a feeling of irritation and boredom from the audience.

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    Well, yes they would be more militaristic. Yes they would take the universe more seriously. But in the long run, the most important ideals remain. The Federation isn't going to invade or conquer other worlds, they are still going to go out and explore the universe to learn and to boldly go. They...

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    Yes. They would require at least 10 years to rebuild after the massive strain put on them by their civil war, fighting the Cardassians, the Federation, and the Dominion all within the space of a decade. More than likely this is why they began annexing various smaller powers in STO-The largest...

    Star Trek The true cost of the Dominion War

    The re-militarization of Starfleet began with the first encounter with the Borg in 2365, but it didn't get serious until the massacre at Wolf 359 the year after. The losses of several Galaxy-class starships to the Dominion, the Borg, alien viruses and an obsolete Klingon Bird of Prey were also...
