[quote="Spidey"]Simple, the people in the Star Trek universe are way to civilized…[quote]UHM one word Klingons
The StarTrek Univerise is MUCH larger than just the Federation. and add to the fact that the Defiant class was not a ship of exploration. it was a compact warship equiped with a cloak. hard to hit what you cant see. also it would seem that the Star destroyers use more of a spray and pray apporach when it comes to targeting
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
Spray and pray? Tiny ships like the Falcon are hard to hit when you're stuck on a big honking capital ship.
Phasers are rediculously overpowered. It's a tiny beam in a tiny remote control thingy. If there was one thing that Star Trek has that is a little out there, it's the tiny Swiss Army Phaser. Blasters from Star Wars seems more logical to me. I know, beams are supposed to travel at light speed, but I think that the reason that it is so slow is because it shoots a matter type projectile encased in some kind of energy for increased damage. That's what I've heard and that is my guess.

hell we can hit missles traveling at supersonic speeds with other missles traveling at supersonic speeds today. with the advanced Tech they have you would think that it would be all that much easier.
Besides it doesnt matter. the Borg would just assimiliate them.
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.

But, you know how Star Trek is in regards to continuity…
Agreed. The odd thing and showing lack of the "C" word... Janeway came home with the "Fix all" to the Borg iirc, but then we had first contact ... or ... was Voyager's return in the future by like 10 years? i only saw the last episode once..

Sorry to inform you the Borg threat wasn't ended during that Movie since only a single Borg Cube ship was used to battle Earth's entire fleet.
In Star Trek Enterprise "Regeneration" the survivors of the Borg sphere shot down in Star Trek: First Contact try to assimilate the Enterprise and a few other ships along the way. The Borg vessel is finally destroyed by the Enterprise, but not before the Borg send out a distress signal. The Enterprise crewmembers estimate the signal will take roughly 200 years to reach its destination.
In regards to continuity why are the Borg such a surprise to the crew of Enterprise-D when Q cast them in to the further reaches of the galaxy after they battled Jonathan Archer captain of Enterprise NX-01?
Thats because all previous Star Treks were the Windows Version. they did a defrag and Reboot with the latest movie. so now all is well in the Star Trek Universe

In the Star Trek: Voyager relaunch novels the Borg Queen isn't a single identity that can't be replaced. The queen can be replace by any female Borg by a program called \"The Royal Protocol\".
In the game Star Trek: Legacy if you unlock the bonus content the game gives you an hint that females of a particular species have the strong enough mind to filter and control traffic of the collective mind of the Borg. They serve as regulators or signal boosters allowing the consciousness to be maintained over the thousands of lightyears of Borg space. Then there is the two different starfleet captains that killed the queen which brings up the possibility of multiple queens.
They show the Nostromo, from Alien, with out its cargo attached, making it smaller.
Here's the whole thing:
However, I think the movie only takes place on the part that can detach and land on the planet. It should still include the whole ship and not just the lander... oh well.
