Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations

Finnaly, a place where you can put your accumulated Trek knowledge to good use!

The rules:

  Only one person asks questions at a time, while the others guess.  The most questions one person can ask at a time is three (3).  When  all the answers are guessed correctly, or when the asker volentarily reveals the answer, then someone else posts a maximum of three (3) questions.  If the questions have gone an absurdly long amount of time without being answered, then new questions may be asked.  Finding answers in the Star Trek Encyclopedia is greatly discouraged.  Last of all, NO FLAMING.  If you have any questions about the rules, pm me, DO NOT POST ABOUT IT.  I will amend the rules as nescisary.

If no one else wants to start, I guess I will.

[1]
Catagory: TOS
 Who was the highest ranking human of african descent in Starfleet during the year 2267?

[2]
Catagory: Apocrypha
 What is the name and class of Admiral Ross's flagship?

Let the games begin!

1:Im guessing it would be Lt. Uhura (prolly wrong)

2:Im betting its an Excelscior class considering most admirals have that as thier flagship.  

ok

1, it was in the courtmartial episode the one where kirk is accused of he redalert thing it was commodore stone

2, the belleraphon the Intrepid class


hmm maybe i can do one

Name the leader of the race that deemed the orignal enterprise a
" Casualty of War"


its a very easy one

To Double V:
Yup  :P
Nope.

To 4 of 11:
Correct!
That is technically true, but it wasn't the intended answer.  You'll notice that the catagory was "apocrypha", essentially meaning non-canon.  In the books (I can't remember which one, but i'll tell you when I remember), his flagship is the Prometheus-class USS Cerberus

-----------------------------------------
The episode was "A Taste of Armageddon", if I remember right.  The aliens which you speek of fought a "bloodless war" with a nieghboring planet for generations by using computer simulations, and having the "casualties" report to "elimination chambers".  As for the leader's name, it eludes me...

wait so do u agree or disagree with teh commodore

Generally, "correct!" means that you got it right.  :P  

lol aight


lets see

what has sisqo done that neither picard nor janeway did


this one is too general for anyone person to guess so ill give u a clue

between P and R

i know its alittle hard but come one someone answer


the kool fact about this questions is no encyclopedia will give u the answer you need to see the ep

ill give another clue if u need

lol generaly you need to give them more than 14 min to answer, umm yes another clue plz

1. adm. Cartright

2. ??

lol euf ok well lets see

first clue was

between P and R

second clue

J 25

that should  identify the individual and from there you can all guess unless you havent seen the episode in that case you will never find out  :lol:  

hmm...

picard and sisko became religious icons, so it's not that.

um...

has a son/child?

---edit

janeway is married i know, but did she have kids? can't remember and i don't want to cheat.

if u give up ill give it to you ur gonna smack your self that you never got it

or was that a clue? B)  

it's not jake?

a h god the answer is

Sisqo is the only one of the three to actually Punch Q

oh, when Q dumps his exgirl friend at DS9?

oh, i got one.

what was the class of the first destroyed vessel seen after wolf359 in (was it desent or best of both worlds, i always get them confused) TNG.

That if the episode is actually DS9, "The Emissary" It is the USS Melborne, the excelscior class starship that recieves a cescarian section of sorts from the cube with its cutting beam. :)

HOWEVER, if you are talking of the reckage field in "The best of Both worlds Part II" Shelby stands by Picard and says, "The tolstoy, The kyushu, the melborne." So therefore it was the Tolstoy, Neworleans class frigate.

that's right. just couldn't remember the exact episode. lol

That New Orleans was the Kyushu, not the Tolstoy. So right name, wrong class :-)

you know there is more than 1 ship in each class, perhaps the tolstoy was another new orleans class ship.

Exactly, niw my trivia question for you people is:
Catagory: TOS-TMP
DID Commodore Matt Decker, have a son and if so, Full name, rank, and ship?

yes he did.

name: was it Matt? matt decker?

captain, commanding officer USS Enterprise post refit.

:lol: I can quote starwars episode 4 to 6 better than anyone I know but when you trekkies really get into... :omg:  

yeah i remember decker he was angry at kirk for stealing command of the ent

lol

hmm lemme think?

really easy one

who is captain of the Uss Centaur

easy :lol: Jean-Luc Picard? :omg:

you got me there

---edit
it was Will Decker. i feel like a moron now, but i guess some times a son is given his fathers name and jr. at the end of it. glad i was never that unlucky

the tolstoy was rigel class (and it wasn't shown), the Kyushu was the new orleans (the first ship shown), and the melbourne was excelsior (outside the cone of vision).

rigel class ships look like miranda class ships with the torpedo/sensor modual removed, and a "cannon" of sorts on the underside (between the nacelles). the saratoga class is like a miranda too with the torpedo/sensor thingy removed; and nothing else done to it, seen in STIV the voyage home.

I asked for the class not the name, so he was right.

 

Captain Charlie Reynolds. Source (http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/USS_Centaur)

w00t! ;) :lol:

What Is The Name Of Admiral Akbar's, the commander of the Rebel Alliance's fleet, ship called?

:lol:

better yet, What was the name of the Colony where Number Six, the cylon, First Meet Gaius Baltar?

^_^

1)  The Home One

2)  I have no idea.

how about

1. which DS9 charactor's actor (i wawnt the names of the DS9 & STVI charactors) played a part in STVI the undiscovered contry?

2. can't think of a second one right now

Very Nice, he also commanded a Mon Calamari Starcruiser by the name of the Mon Remonda. ^_^

and

:lol: Caprica, one of the 12 Colonies of Man. Where the Lords Of Kobol Reign over their Loyal Subjects B)

*fills remaining space in the ever expanding universe with ego...*

Regarding the actor that shared a role in STVI and DS9 is
Rene Abujenuewa(something like that) also known as ODO

Odo has cool ears :)

I've got one for you trekkies, what year was the NCC-1701 a constitution class starship, Destroyed?

Well, I would say Michael Dorn is also a DS9 actor (at least for 2 seasons, I think).

So there is René Auberjonois and Michael Dorn. The latter is even in the short version of ST VI.

Both characters were called Worf, the one from ST VI being the great-grandfather of the TNG/DS9 Worf.

(Just wanted to add that. ;) Vincent Vega was first and wins. :D)

but u also forgot a third charecter who plays two different roles

Admiral carthwright
and
Sisko's dad

very impressive. my hat is off to you gents.

what year was the NCC-1701 destroyed. um... my guess off hand would be 2285ish

Yep...and your offically a loser...:lol: jk ;)

wanna know how i figured that out without looking anything up?

u watched search for spock at the start it tells u the star date

nope.

i know that STVI was 2292, and i just counted backwords till i hit the right spot.

:lol: I can't say I can't do that sort of stuff with starwars...but still...use google man! ;)

ok what did the kling boearder guard aksed to ururah when the enterprise crossed the klingon boarder to save kirk and mccoy from the prison planet. ( in klingon if you can )  :lol:  

Qu'Pla? :lol: and that moon is called Rura Penthe right? I remember the name cause I thought it was so cool :)

nutra'gross gren, i know i butchered it, i don't know klingon all that well.

in english. "what is your cargo and destination."

or do you mean the joke?
"don't catch any bugs."

L'oh cher, Vous êtes fou! :lol:

Again...I can't say anything, I can speak Goa'uld, yeah I like Stargate too...lol

Kegalo Ha'shak is one of my favourite things to say to people...It means Silence Fool in Goa'uld. :lol:

Here's one for ya, what does NCC stand for, the code used to indentify starships in startrek?

numaric commission code?

Navigational Contact Code, ooo, whos the bigger trekkie now? lol jk ;) :lol:

is that right? didn't know that, i guessed anyway.

Neither did I, google is beautiful hun, despite the fact it's going to become the next Skynet...Slashdot Article Here (http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/11/20/1514244&tid=217)

That was offtopic, but it's funny :lol:

why is it that people answer trivia questions with Google

we should have a rule no google when answering trivia it makes the games so ******* bullshit

heres something nothing to do with google dont even try to google it


in which episode does a charecter end up living an alternate timeline awakening 700 years after his crew is gone


now this is an easy one but should limit the Google cheaters

Well, official sources state that there never has been any true meaning to NCC except being a registration prefix for Starfleet vessels.

However, that could have changed with "Enterprise"... but I missed too much of that series, so I don't know.

...lol, I don't answer the trivia questions seriously hun, I'm not a Trekkie, so I google this stuff to learn more about it :P besides, how would you even know if someone used google or not? you wouldn't! So there is no point to trying to say it's cheating, and certainly no point to losing your cool over such a ridiculous topic...You need to re-examine what you consider cheating, because you certainly had to learn somewhere, google is my prefered search engine, If people can't figure a question out, they should google it, why limit yourself to the knowlegde off the top of your head? The Internet is amazing because you can find the answer to anything out here...Over reacting like that isn't going to dissuade someone from using google to answer a question. I told him to use google because well...if you seriously know the definition of every acronym in the star trek universe then you need to go outside...for once...it's something that he could have just typed in as "Define:NCC" to figure out, thats why I said it, I doubted very much that he would be able to answer that off the top of his head.

Using google to answer a question, in a game or no, is not a weakness but a resourcefulness, I would support such things, that way you actually learn something rather then just reading the answer, you read why it is the answer...Don't bad mouth people for being more resourceful then others, and thinking ahead, it's a game to test your star trek knowledge but I seriously doubt anyone is keeping score, It's for fun, so if there is no score, how can you cheat...

Hmm...

the doctor's back-up program was captured by aliens who ransacked the ship during some uprising, 700 years later it is reactivated in a museum, the museum was another holo recreation in an even further off future. don't know the episode, it was voyager though. is that good enough?

course it is good enough


and the reason i consider google cheating is because of the fact that you cheated to get your answer you didnt even watch the episode to get the answer all you did was look for it you need to watch the stuff

if you just google it then you dont deserve to answer

.....what if we go to Startrek.com for the answers :sweatdrop:

8 of 11 secondary adjunct of unimatrix 0

Startrek.com depends on if we lack the knowledge

which we do not

oh goodness...he's going to assimilate me now, wait, I'm safe, I'm a deity, ph33r m3 b0rg! :lol: *makes cute little puppies invade the borg cube by the billions*

can i use my st encylopedia to make questions?

--- :ph34r: edit

i got one!

what class of warpcore is installed in the intrepid class starship voyager?

you can use stuff yeah its all good but just dont do the whole google thing im gonna go watch some voyager to find out bout the core

Well I aint got much to say bout the warp core, but why your boiling that one up (was it a type IX warp core? probably not) anyway here is a question to keep you busy

Of all the ships that participated in the Battle in First Conact, ILM only designed three in detail, the Enterprise, The Defiant, and a third ship, What was the class, and name of the third ship?  

the akria  i think it was the thunder child ?

wasn't the thunder child a nebula class at wolf 359?

---edit
nope wasn't a type IX. type 9 warpcores are use in defiants, galaxys, new orleans, and nebula class starships.

neat fact, the first 2 intrepid class ships had type VII warp cores, but they were upgraded and all intrepids underproduction were refitted with new more powerful ones, mainly because the intrepid has a higher rate of energy consumption, far higher then ships of similar size.

That would be her, ILM saw Jaeger (sp?) concept and was thrilled, and decided that it would be the ship that would define itself in the battle other than the enterprise, because they didn't want all the Fed ships being low detail, so they needed one design that really really stuck out. The akria slid across the desk and was chosen, subsequently it is a tech geek favorite and the model has made numberous other apperances in DS9 and Voyager. becoming one of the only non lead ships (constitution, intrepid, defiant, galaxy,  sovi) Other than the Excelcior, Nebula, and Miranda to make so many appearances in such clear detail

Source (http://www.lcarscom.net/fsd/art/akira.html)


and ahhhh on the type 7 warp core heh, I guess I have heard it so many times now :P .  

The U.S.S. Thunderchild was an Arika class ship in First Contact

commonly mistaken with Wolf 359
 

what was the first sentance kirk said when the show Enterprise started?

um space the final frontier perhaps?

hi?

kirk said something when "Enterprise" started? his character wasn't alive at that time

OK.. so what did Pike say then?

argh now i gotta look for the ******* tape with the orignal pilot lol  

"what did pike say"... when? we never saw his first moment on the bridge, we only saw some scene from a battle, something or other, used in a court years later

So then what didi Kirk say!?

that kirk said... WHEN? you cant just ask "what did <name> say", the first thing james t. kirk said on the bridge of the enterprise was that "The bridge smelled", when he was a teenager

WHAT WAS THE FIRST FRACKING LINE IN STAR TREK TOS EVER!?
(enterprise dont count)

define when "star trek" officially starts, books keep going into the past

FIRST FRAKING LINE OF THE SHOW-WHAT WAS IT

the first line of the TOS series with kirk

was the opening to the intro with the Space the final frontier


as for pike without watching the ep i can remember

that it starts on the bridge and he talks to his number one and  tells her to go to Time warp

i figured it would be something like "Take us out."

Alright here is an interesting one, In star trek first contact there were 4 non major new ship types introduced. Which one of these tyes CGI model was lost du to a computer glitch and never seen again  

norway, i remember reading about that a while ago

Yep  ^_^  

i didn't get here quick enough to answer. :unsure:

---- :ph34r: edit
has everyone given up on the voyager warp core question?

after literally watching tonnes of voyagers
 
i think its a type IX

nope.

look back a few posts. ;)

not type 9.  

what then and soon as you say provide a reference of proof  

it is a type XI (type 11) warp core.

startrek starship creater + startrek encylopeda. ya just got to know where to look. :rolleyes:  

ok heres a good one

whats the most commonly used evassive manuever pattern during voyager season 7 towards the end?

evasive maneuver? evasive + voyager = fancy word for "turn left"

nope janeway uses the same pattern over 6 times in season 7 what is it
 

it's been a while, i don't have cable. but um... omega something?

run away and use warp speed?

warp speed, please all they did was run on full impulse, then when they were about to explode they'd jump to warp  

no janeway would always go to evassive pattern Beta 6 lol

ok heres a good one

whats the defining feature of Lt. Marseille ?

hmm, skin tone?

moustache

her 81 eyes covered around her body?

That she hates the EMH? lol.

ok first off its a guy lol, marseille was the evil paris from doctor's holonovel, photons be free

i like it man at least you know ur ****  B)


how about the easiest one in the world

when was the last time the maquis tried to take over voyager?

easiest one in the world *cough* Now if I asked what class of Mon Calamari cruiser Admiral Ackbar commanded before it became obsolete, you'd all look at me weird, however you can answer questions like "Who was evil paris in a holonovel"? come on...:lol: sometimes people can simply amaze me, you trekkies really make star trek your life huh? :D

Isn't that Repression? the one where the maquis are...brainwashed, for lack of a better term...I remember that episode, I have it taped :P :D

yup tis

the one where tuvok is controlled by the Bajoran

 

ok this is an easy one, when was the first time, picard said ENGAGE!, you don't have to say even the episode title

first episode farpoint

That giant cigar shaped ship called Home One, apparently Larger then a Star Destroyer?
And with weak *** weapons, but a shitload of fighter cover.
(20 odd turbo lasers?...29?).

Unless you mean his pre Yavin Flagship...Independence...which might...even be the same class as home one...although this is...debateable.

And I'd say the first time Picard Said Engage...yeah I agree. lol.

 

wasn't home 1 a MC-80a (or was it b ) type mon-cal cruiser?

i like them both (star trek & starwars), but starwars games cameout first, and i just absorbed stuff from that, and to get better at a$$kicking in SW-Xwing & tie-fighter i read all the tech books i could get my hands on. i'm boaring people now aren't i, ok i'll shut-up now. :huh:

MC 80 = smaller then ISD.
Home-One = Much Larger then ISD.

ok first off she wasnt bajoran she was cardassian loing like bajoran.  second u need to read STAR TREK BADLANDS BOOK 1 & 2

what are you talking about???


in the episode tuvok had been exposed to mind control by a bajoran man while he was still in the alpha quadrant and was activated while on voyager

your talking about Seska

seriously read before you post

home 1 wasn't a mc-90 (they didn't have em yet), and it doesn't look like a mc-80b (IMHO), so thats why i said MC-80a. the thing about the "early" mc cruisers is that they are makeshift warships, where as the ISDs and VSDs are designed for combat. but argue all you want.

oh oh! I have a question.  in DS9 finale.  what year bloodwine do they drink?

if memory serves 2309 there is no finer vintage

EDIT:!Eek :omg: I had the names mixed up :P Thanks to Rhaz for correcting me :P! As such, deleted large parts of the post :P I'm very sorry people...my mistake, all me...*hears someone turn on a lightsaber* ok...not my fault to that extream...

it was MC-80b MC-90 was the class that made his ship obsolete. ;)

MC-80 is smaller than an ISD, however not by much, it was said to take on an ISD by itself with considerable confedence.

Home One was a MC-80b Cruiser that Admiral Akbar commanded during the battle over Endor.

Nebulon frigates were tiny 300 meter escourt ships, the Millinium Falcon was docked at one whilst Luke was having his hand "repaired". It was the hopsital ship.

EDIT: and yay, i got one right! :lol: thank you VCRs!

oh they were tiny! the melinuum falcon was wider than it.  and it was a medical frigate not fit for battle

yes, they were skinny, the falcon was a very wide ship though, and it was that way for modular addons to the vessel if needed.  

nubulan-b frigates are mainly used as very small mobile bases for fighters, because well, the only thing they can do is hull fighters around and guard unimportant convoys. oh, and they are used as patrol ships as well. i'd say 4 nebulan-b frigates can take-on a standard ISD, they'll get the snot kicked out of em, but they'll bring down the isd with them.

not even close IMO, 4 neb-b's could only threaten a shrike, maybe a dreadnought class

thi si an star trek trivia isn't it? (just checking)

True True.
No you'd need like a dozen Nebula B's (Not counting Fighter support)
To tackle an ISD...as it has alot of Turbolasers.
To take an ISD II? Don't bother...its heavy turbolasers would chew those frigates up.
Its all about the fighters, 3 nebula B's could win if provided with ample well motivated Alliance squadrons of X-wings/E-wings and Y-wings/B-wings, but if the ISD Had Tie Avenger or Defender fighters on board it could really **** up those Rebels. (Even if those two classes were REALLY rare). In a fight like that its all down to who has the best or most (As imperials Meatshield their ISD's with ties).

MC80 and 80a cruisers were not a match for ISD's in terms of Firepower.
They had redundant shielding however, that meant they could out last their imperial counterparts, but the ISD II had much better firepower (Albeit Weaker shields and Lower Maximal Velocity than an ISD I).

The MC80b as a part of a fleet destroyed a SUper Star Destroyer (Executor Type) under the command of Rogue Warlord Zsinj. Although it was easily capable of soloing an ISD and coming out successful, it was utterly destroyed by Silencer-7 (A large world devastator with the firepower of an Imperator class Star Destroyer). This is just the Mon Remonda, I know little of other ships of similar build. The MC90 was its successor, and the successor to that was the Mediator Battle Cruiser, which is my personal favorite Mon Calamari Ship. But in the tough times after the Empire, they found it hard to produce more ships and so began refitting ISD's to meet their needs in the form of the Nebula and Rejuvenator Class. They also refit VSD's for service, and named them Republic Class Star Destroyers.  These refit ISD's were more than a match for an MC90 but took a backseat role to the Mediators. Teehee.

 :lol: I guess that is a no oh here is an interesting one, don't know if it has been asked, but what ship appears in the most nubmer of episodes (non lead) class is the only thing needed

excelcior? or miranda?

funny you ask when I was doing the research I was wondering about that two, but someone counted and the award goes to the excelcior (not sure weather or not to trust Memory alpha though) http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Excelsior_class (http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Excelsior_class)

In what series? all of them? The excelsior is old though :P why would they need it in tng when they have galaxies lurking about? :P

excellsiors appear in TNG and DS9 frequently way too frequently

im not sure if there was ever one in voyager maybe in the temporal episode where janeway goes back in time but i doubt it  

I don't remember them in DS9 :P Perhaps it's because I didn't really care for what was outside the station when watching, Didn't pay attention to it unless it was really a key point in the story :lol: I remember someone on the enterprise-D gets transferred over to an Excelsior class commanded by an Admiral, one thing I didn't understand is if she was an Admiral, why would you want an old ship like that? I'd get the new one, fastest, strongest, ect ect :lol:

when i said that 4 nebs could take on an ISD, i figured that everyone would assume that they would have a full screen of fighters. without fighters they would be slag. that was a major part of my last post. now as for the "this is startrek trivia". you'd think so, but i guess we have to many SW fans here.

as for why you'd need excellsiors in TGN or ds9. just because a ship is older doesn't mean it should be scrap when newer models comeout, if a ship can still hold it's own, why stop using em just because newer or bigger ships are used as well, i mean that's just wasteful. IMHO

and about that admiral, maybe that ship has some kind of sentimental value to her? that would be my guess.

because the show was low on cash  B)

but also they were proven vessels  

that is a terrific point. unfortunately military logic doesn't always fare well on the big screen, newer ships mean you can have longer names for their technology, and more flashing lights

well, i'm a big fan of military tactics myself. but i can see your point nontheless.

In DS9 the most common federation ship class was Excelsior.

The Excelsior started life off as a Battlecruiser, in the age of the refitted constitution.
(Enterprise-B)

Around the TNG Era they took the role of Heavy Cruiser (Being suceeded in dangerous jobs by Nebulas and Galaxies).

In the DS9 era they were the most common ship.
There were TONS of them in the final battle, the battle for Chun'toka (Sp)
Retaking of DS9 and alot of other skirmishes (Lakota).

The Excelsior in the DS9 era was a medium cruiser and general purpose line ship (They made up the meat of the federation fleet) and they could carry 500 personel (Good for troop landings, supplies ect) and were used in all manner of warfare.

I would doubt they are obosolete now as the class was very easy to refit, I believe it more likely that they were simply relegated to core federation systems or as part of larger task forces in specialized roles like communications ship or dedicated to a starbase in case of an emergency. They will soon be replaced by Nebulas, Akiras and more combat worthy classes if the need arises, but until then they are the meat of the federation armada.

ALTHOUGH

Can someone explain why we see so few ambassadors? But so many Excelsiors?
I mean the ambassadors are better, and sure they were few...but wouldn't a few have survived to be in major battles?

yeah but wasnt the ambassador ship line pretty low compared because of the extra cost and the size compared to the excellsior

plus as you said the excellsior was really easy to refit **** some where used as fighter carriers  

If tou recall the excelsior was built to test transwarp  .It was ahead of its time because then structure had to withstand transwarp focres but also because they used a lot of reverse enginering in it.  it is the most eisily refited ship in the fleet.

yeah that is true too bad it failed but ur right ahead of its time just like many other ships

 

i think im gonna save that and use it against you one day

wait, wait wait...Star Trek, low on cash?! My left boot...I'd be surprised if Gene didn't have more money than Gates for a good part of his life :P

i don't know if i'd go that far, but he must have been loaded.

The girls he mustve got

he was married to majel barret the woman who places nurse chapman and does the voice for all startrek computers

add to that is the exec producer of andromeda or was

oh.  i always wondered who did that vouice  would be funny if it was same person as cellphone account.  DO DE DO you have reached the cingular account of-------
