I like the implication in lower decks that not only does he watch Enterprise regularly on the holodeck, he watches the opening with the music.

The reviews I'm seeing are that it's mediocre as a game but decent as a Star Trek story.

I think the SNW Enterprise is *just* the perfect environment for a big nerd from the future to geek out about.

Prediction: he grabs Uhura's earpiece out of her ear and starts ranting about historical tech

I'm betting there's going to be a comment about how 'I always thought the original Enterprise was more cramped and plainer, this is really nice!'

Sure, if you care about that, whatever.

Powered Descent posted:

The people who claim that the arrowhead wasn't an Enterprise assignment patch but was for all "starship duty" somehow never seem to remember the uniforms on the Defiant, which all have a different insignia.

That was back when it was assumed that every starship did have its own patch. However: we saw a few Defiant crew wearing arrowheads in TOS! And then ENT introduced a distinct patch.

My assumption is that the arrowhead is the standard duty patch, but that certain special duties or fleets get special patches.

So, say the Exeter and Defiant were on some special mission (but not everyone on Defiant had switched their tops yet). Matt Decker was wearing a Commodore patch.

The 70's and 80's tech manuals and fanzines had a bunch of different created patches for every drat ship in the fleet, under the erroneous idea every one needed it's own, before canon overrode their ideas.

Yeah that kind of idea is the perfect fanon bait.

Well we know by the late 24th century civilian Gorn aren't uncommon on Federation starbases, and Gorn ships were among the allies who came to the aid of the Federation in the Prodigy finale and risked their lives for Starfleet.

The moral of the story is, canon includes all the 90s shows except the bits we don't talk about, lower decks, prodigy, and a specific 160,000 word fanfic.

Not to backseat, but how about we all just move on from that.
