Battlespace 'The Dominion War' The Siege Of Vulcan

after 3 months of constant retreat Starfleet has been driven back to the very core of the federation. The founding world of Vulcan now in jeopardy. For over 200 years the Vulcans have remained steadfast pacifists. yet now as the shadow of the dominion looms over their world they may have no other choice than to take up arms... a choice that will forever change the face of Vulcan Civilization.

Notice how The Enterprise pulled The Riker Maneuver? Swinging the Fleet (leg) over the top of the Cardassian line (back of any chair) and then down the other side (straddling the chair)

Inclusion of Adm. T'lara: ah yeah, remember her, cool.
Inclusion of Adm. Bullock: oh yeah, him, nice touch.
Inclusion of Nechayev: HELL YES. SHIT IS GOING DOWN. DOMINION ABOUT TO GET DOMINATED!
Inclusion of Enterprise-E: <faints>

[Qardo]

To think the Dominion got the Vulcan to rethink their way of life. Their way of thinking. To figure out that Logic is not always the answer to everything. That following a logical path is not always the right course of action. That even the Romulans may have the right idea. To have emotions and logic together. To which that maybe it was time to follow...Logic...and bring the two halves back together.

[Self-replicating_whatnot]

I imagine the first experience of fighting vulcans hand-to-hand was quite traumatic for jem'hadar. Dominion warrior caste probably got accustomed by this point to humans being pushovers and klingons being only somewhat of a challenge, but then this panzy-ass lookin' elf walks up to you and snaps you in half with his bare hands. Like, wtf, did someone put lsd in my ketracel?

Dude, your Star Trek videos are the best on YouTube in regards to strategic and tactical realism. Why the hell do you only have 11k subscribers. We gotta get your videos more circulation, i think there are hundreds of thousands of fans who would go for this stuff.

[allnamesaretakenful]

Those green-blooded Hobgoblins did good.

[homelessveteran]

This is so nerdy, I support your work nerd. May the great x checker take your bribe.

[matthewwhite]

[weldonwin]

Well, they chased them around the Moons of Nibia, now where is the Antares Maelstrom and Perdition's Flames?

_"Not one __-step-__ system back!" ~ __-Soviet-__ Starfleet Order No. 227_
This siege gives me both Leningrad/St. Petersburg & Stalingrad/Volgograd vibes in regards to the encirclement of Andor & the battle at the Vulcan border. It gives the off the UFP's desperation as well as jubilation after their victories here & Operation: Return.
Also, an excellent showing of the Grey Ghost that is the USS Enterprise-E proving why it's Starfleet's flagship.

nechayev ordered the Enterprise…
Me: well the dominion is doomed.

[wedgeantillies]

Have to say that it is great to see the federation fleets and their admirals making effective use of the terrain, spacial phenomena, fortified positions and military assets at their disposal to slow down, frustrate and ultimate defeat and turn the enemies numerical advantage and tactics against them. While brilliantly concentrating their best forces at key positions to defeat the enemy at key moments vital to victory. Plus great to see the enterprise e showing how lethal a sovereign can be to the enemy.

[nicholaswalsh]

Honestly, I want this to be made official canon and provided with the effects budget necessary to give us actual footage of these battles.

[philiptai]

Wow, the evolution of the Vulcan mindset, moving them closer to reunification with the Romulans. What a great touch.

when an animal has its back to the wall it will fight with the fury of an animal with nothing left to lose.
The Federation needs to make further usage of surface based phaser weapons, best fit to be lance weapons that could provide the best ground support in siege battles. when it comes to large scale battles the federation always seems to make the mistake of treating all their ships as battleships rather than their actual classifications, they need to use their fighters and escort ships like mirandas, defiants and maybe even sabers as a further skirmishing line to keep the enemy at arms length while their frigates and artillery vessels can provide support from a distance with a seccond escort force behind that can act as a mobile reserve force.
the federation also needs to make the usage of mines more common, throwing self replicating mines in random clusters along well travelled routs they could use them to slow down dominion forces who would have to manoeuvre through them slowly buying the federation more time. The federation could use this to set up traps with automated turrets and small squads of fast moving ships like defiants. if they focus on the Jemhadar fighters and cardasian frigates then their cruisers will lack their support and can't safely engage the federation formations and will need to pull back and regroup, then while they reorganise the federation can catch them flat footed and drive a wedge in dominion lines.

in summary, I love the video

Nice bravo bravo good to see Enterprise-E in action and Kirk student putting her lessons on the Enterprise from her first battle against Khan to use

[Clenched.Cheeks]

War is such; thirsty work.

Don't you agree?

[grimreaper]

What an awesome presintation Thank you for this outstanding video on the Dominion war and its effect on the Vulcans, Logic is great till someone sticks a gun in your face. I can see how the Dominion war would have change the Vulcan way of thinking and would lead to reunification of Romulan / Vulcan People and maybe make them whole again. having looked at both they always seemed to be missing something like both were incomplete.

[apotheases]

Ha even the Oberth's are kicking ass in this one.
