This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate
my satisfaction.

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

But there's no sense crying over every booboo
You just keep on trying 'til you run out of statues
And the killing gets done, so you replicate a gun
For the people who are still alive
And I can hear the ambient trills/beeping in my head.
Singing the song in Dukat's voice is entertaining to imagine
You wouldn't steal Odo's bucket
I bet Peanut Hamper would download a turret. She strikes me as just bonkers enough to override some security clearances.
Once it stuck to walls and slagged... So great
Ah slag, the scapegoat for forcing weapon variety on top of the bullet sponge late game mechanics. Still the best of the series, though.
... stuck to the wall, you say?
My favorite way to use it has to be the Nuke + Gemini Turret strategy. Toss one nuke at the enemy, drop the other right in front of yourself, immediately pack it back up, wait for cooldown, repeat.
Replicator phaser: “Where are you?”
"Just try getting close to that baby. Ha! It's your funeral."
"Hey, stand in front of this!"
"You fellas meet the missus?"
I absolutely adore this scene. Not only does this maniacal genius weaponize the ops replicators on the off chance he needs that to happen, but they can never hurt him. So much so he can use the replicators as he pleases - this is thirsty work after all - while the whole room is set ablaze with lethal phaser fire.
I really need a gif of the whole "i'm thirsty waitasec" scene that's before that last screengrab.
