13:30 ; The fact that *ALL* of those ships names have history behind them just represents how much detail and lore there is in Star Trek overall by this point and much of the effort the STO dev team goes into for it.

Why can’t canon Trek be this interesting? It says a lot when STO videos are what I look forward to these days... Love the flux capacitor in the display case!

“Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds” becomes a terrifying reality, when you control the ability to erase worlds from existence.

Don't tell department of temporal investigations, they will flip out.

It's ironic. Hale is against the use of temporal manipulation in the name of survival, but if it weren't for temporal manipulation, he'd only exist in 2409 as a name on a plaque remembering a destroyed ship.

The fact your character is an admiral, we don't have any influence or what ever, and there are captains or commanders that can give us orders,

Looks like a Klingon officer wanted to make sure he could see everyone in the meeting room from a good angle above in the back.

rock filled computer go boom

They did such a good job with the perspective on the sphere, it looks truly enormous, far more so than most of the gigantic objects encountered throughout the TV series.

Hey Rick? Guess what name I gave to my Kelvin Heavy Destroyer? ;) Thank you for all the work.

If I could turn back time, if I could find a way, I'd take back those words that hurt you and you'd stay.

I love your narration

One would've thought that people in Star Trek would've learned by now that time travel *anything* is a baaaaad idea...Honestly, I think this, along with Midnight and Butterfly, was one of my favorite episodes in STO simply because of how neatly they tied up some of the loose ends and questions about the sphere builders, the Iconians, and their backstory, and also address the hubris of trying to make things better in the past instead of learning from it to do better in the future.

"weapons have a purpose, and it isn't to make things better" How much fire power does your ship have again?

Well, I think this temporal erasing weapon is an utter overkill. It is like dropping a nuke at the capital of an enemy country that's blast wave even dangerous to your country. I think they should have picked a more humble piece of krenim temporal tech that can be more easily reproduced and distributed in the alliance yet it still gives the upper hand. For example that temporal displacement cloaking tech that the krenim used to shield their installements. I think it is more then enough to turn the tide of the war if widely distributed. With this they can literally put an antimatter warhead in front of an Iconian without the Iconian noticing it (and then of course decloak it and immediately explode it). Also if the Iconians capture the tech, then they can use it due to their temporal weakness.

Why does Noye's voice sounds familiar... like someone who has been around for a long time ;)

While Von Richtofen is most associated with the WWI Flying Ace, I would think any Federation Starships would more likely be named for his Uncle, the 19th Century Explorer, Geographer and Scientist Ferdinand von Richtofen. Mount Richtofen in Colorado is named for him. He just strikes me as the better namesake for a Starfleet Exploration Vessel.

This was a good storyline. I greatly enjoyed playing through it.

Since time travel always makes things worse for the people doing it you just have to make your enemies disrupt the timeline and then they'll wipe themselves out and make you stronger. Easy peazy.

The two part space/ground TFOs for the Iconian invasion of the Klingon homeworld do a good job fleshing out what's going on around this time.

7:25, I saw what you did there 😆

4:10 "A GREAT TIME-YEEET" OMG couldn't hold it xD HILARIOUS!

14:54 captain Hail: hi i brought friends i hope this isnt a bad time

With the fleet seen in this episode, I do wonder how many ships the Alliance actually has in total. Looking a Federation registry numbers I would guess Starfleet has somewhere between 30,000 and 70,000 ships. More speculatively and arbitrary, I would presume the Klingons have around 1/3rd to the number of ships as Starfleet and the Romulans about 1/12th of Starfleet. Still some official (or semi-official) numbers would be nice.

What do we want? *Time Travel!* When do we want? *Irrelevant!*

7:17 Hahaha, the Fux Capasitor

BEHOLD "THE GREAT TIME YEET"

Always a pleasure to watch these adventures. Hope life is treating you well.

wow...watching your videos makes me wanna re-install STO. I'm feeling nostalgic, and missing my Science Officer.

This scale of fleet was never seen before since the Dominion war...

Excuse me but is nobody gonna mention those chairs in the conference room lol

Imagine 200 ships attacking a Dysonphere that can hold 8 quintillion people on the surface.

Have to disagree a bit on war. For evil to take root good people only need to not appose evil. For good to take root from evil there generally is conflict that eventually leads to war. Yes yes I know war can happen to take resources but that's only because good people are opposing being taken over, or 2 evil factions trying to out evil each other.

Thank you for this series. I would never have time to play STO. Your series lets me explore these stories.

Personally, I wouldn't use that thing unless it had an undo button. And then I would make the smallest changes possible, rather than the big ones. Something like... Eliminating Sela, or the specific iconian that attacked the preserver records facility.

hmm a futile gesture, why the Genesis device in a small lightning strike group isn't used is rather bemusing!

5:15 Don't you mean " When is Agent Daniels when you need him?"

5:01 depends who's holding the weapon at who.

Thank you for playing and sharing. I realy like your meta comments and its reminds me to mamy episodes of ST i loved.

7:15 great scott it's the flus capasator

A great time yeet. Good one!

Admiral Hail has to take a break from this war and go too Risa it's his first time at the festival remember what's ours is yours

7:24 is that Flux capacitor from the movie back to the future?

The cage is probably a reference to a movie, or a Dragonball thing, called the Time Cage. I dunno what that other thingie is.

I'm surprised no one pointed out what taking the Iconians out of the time stream would do and how much it would affect EVERYTHING... There's a problem with taking them out because they were "the first race" of the seeds from the Progenitors. There would likely always be a "First race" that had outmatched influence compared to the other races so you could change the whole universe because there would always be a first race it would just change what race it would be. There's only one other race you could take out of the time stream that would have a bigger impact and that would be the Progenitors themselves.

Wow I totally forgot that they changed Noye's voice actor recently. It's so weird watching this arc again after playing it so many times and not hearing that snide nasally voice coming from him lmao.

Certifiably Ingane: Thought I would say thanks for the new addiction. I enjoyed these so much I have spent an average of 12 hours a day for the last 13 months on STO. I so need sleep!

wow, STO put more effort into creating a believable massive federation fleet than Star Trek Picard did. That's just kinda sad.....

I'm collecting ships from the eaglemoss collection, I currently have the Andromeda, Gagarin. They both are beautiful, my favorite is Andromeda I love the update to the Galaxy class.

Great job can’t wait for more.... no apologies necessary

"Time yeet"

5:20 Sorry, I couldn't make that out... "where's that dude Daniels when you need him"?

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Love it woohoooo go STO

Forget about Daniels, what has VrinaTyral been up to during the Iconian War?

4:50 [Cher cameo intensifies!]

Wow, they need to remember -- what doesn't kill you only cripples you ... I mean makes you stronger. Struggles makes all of us stronger. Have you seen the soft lives of those born into a rich family? Not good people. Remove those three massive wars and you'll be so soft Ferengi will see you as pray.

I see 7 of 9 still has her funbags 🤣

"We might actually be able to do this, without resorting to temporal cheating." Flag! 🚩

Waiting for the ads to finish and already liked it. Love this series. Your creative additions make it great. And... Thank you for cutting out all of the... Gameplay. It's very repetitive.

Now you have to a Starship Legacy on the USS Nelson

cant wait for the next one

I want Annorax to show up and call someone a dumbass. It's funny that you keep mentioning the Year of Hell. Your character would know nothing of that though, right? It would have been funny if one of the time related objects in the conference room was a British police box. The flux capacitor was a continuity error. It should have been in a square box, not a triangular one.

Do you have some tips for some less experienced players of STO? Also, I wondered what kind of weapons you have equipped to your current ship.

Is star fleet sure that putting Paris in the command chair was actually a smart idea? His first reaction to any setback is to run away. That's not a good trait for a captain to have. You need to be able to come up with alternatives and create solutions when you can't see any. Honestly he should probably have gone into writing the holographic equivalent of Fallout or the Witcher.

Hey, What fleet are you in? Also is it active?

So what can u sujest a new player ?

Where's Species 8472 when you need them?

went back and watched I have the same problem that I did when we fught superior numbe3rs in the Dominion Wars. We could not come up with Antimatter missiles sorta like the only from voyager the Beylana reprogrammed!!I think 50-100 of them would of caused significant damage to the herald???? Just a thought. Quite pos. put us at a more even playing field..

Eliminating villains would bring about a worse villain than before

Seriously where is agent Daniels during this?

3:26 no kidding.

Question to all: How do I unlock Teirs on my Fleet Starbase?

I think Department of Temporal Investigations needs a new acronym 'DoTI' because why not.

Is this it? Is this the spark of the Temporal Cold War???

Why isn't any of this Canon?!

Hmmm? Watching these videos you notice subtle details that you fail to pickup in game. Such as Seven of Nines Catsuit apparently suffers from Pantylines... and Borg prefer thongs. They also would appear to forgo bras. I'm not saying that designing the Seven of Nine character model was a labor of "love" for some skilled graphics designer. I'm just saying you might not want to touch his keyboard or mouse... for reasons. (and for gods sake don't sit in his chair! We've arranged to have it burned!")

Was that that Flux capacitor at the 7:18 mark

😀 😀

wheres the dominion

CBS should create series based on STO Iconian War instead of STD and Picard.

Time Travel doesnt exist!

Didn't know anyone still played this game

I'm sorry, but did that Iconian ship OPEN A GATEWAY INSIDE OF A STAR TO FIRE A MASSIVE ENERGY BEAM!?!?

why not get some shuttles, small ships and use autopilot to ram the ships at warp speed and kamikaze their asses?!

There are races like the Borg who use time travel why not ally with them there no longer hostile in this timezone the queen got killed

Did they stake out creator content? That was the coolest shit.

Sorry, can't help myself, but wtf is Kagran thinking? At 11:54 he blurts out that the alliance needs to strike the Iconians now. After hearing about the temporal weapon not being ready, he seems to think that throwing the weight of the fleet against the enemy is their only option. But why? It accomplishes nothing; the Iconians have superior numbers, technology, firepower, and the ability to gate in to pretty much anywhere they want. Any major offensive is going to get swarmed and decimated, as it's shown in-game, and anyone with a brain could see it coming. They have multiple spheres, fleets, and plenty of Heralds that would survive any single attack, and that's IF the alliance stood a chance in hell of cracking the shell of a sphere, which they don't. In fact, the only reason anything close to progress is accomplished is due to a stroke of luck involving a gateway left behind by an Iconian ship; without which no entry into the Sphere was possible. If anything, the next thing the player does (kill an Iconian) only makes the enemy even more committed to winning through brutality. The assault was a complete failure, no question about it. Personally I would have shot Kagran after the battle. He leads one of the worst assaults in-game against an enemy he can't beat head-on and has no real reason to do so. Tom Paris shows that hit-and-run tactics work before this battle, and really all the Alliance needs to do is delay the enemy until the temporal weapon is ready. Instead they lose most of the fleet, several thousand personnel, and good luck defending the worlds of "civilians" without those ships and crew now. I know it's a year-old vid, about a video game, and it's not worth it. But I don't care, it baffled the hell outta me and was the dumbest moment in-game I'd ever seen. No shade intended to CI.

Is this canon

Wheres the bikini mod for 7 of 9?

time manipulation will end in disaster

Annorax did nothing wrong.

john 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life!
