Battlespace 'The Dominion War' The Battle of Benzar

As The Dominion Continue their Kalandra Offensive; more and more Federation Homeworlds face the prospect of Dominion invasion; including the recently joined planet of Benzar, Homeworld of the Benzite species.
If Benzar is to be saved, then the Federation cannot fight alone. Her salvation now rests in the hands of Starfleets Romulan Allies.
But can Tomalok and the Romulans be trusted?

and Thanks again to Harper Steele and his boys in the 4th combined fleet for their STO Renders!

I love the renewed "relationship" between Picard and Tomalak. I really wish Tomalak had become more of a permanent villan of TNG like Gul Dukat was for DS9.

[Okiedog]

Whew! That antimatter refinery was something serious. Picard and Tomalok sparing verbally. Loved it.

[andrewharper]

Halfway way through and the introduction of Picard in charge of the Enterprise E is enough for a thumbs 👍 up.

11:40 "Listen, I could have rick-rolled you, but I chose to use the classical music to spare you."

[andrewdelafranier]

The back and forth between Picard and Tomalak at the beginning - A+

Keep up the great work!

[madrabbit]

I've always wondered about the exploits of the Enterprise E during the war. Thanks for this.

[matthewwhite]

not gonna lie, im not surprised the Dominion blew up that antimatter refinery. Astounding production Venom! loved this one

[JoacinoDaGona]

The VA doing Picard does an amazing impression.

_"If we open a quarrel between past and present, we shall find that we have lost the future." - Winston Churchill_
The thing about any war is that the members involved may have complex pasts with each other. This is deeply true for the Dominion War. Though the actions here both by the blood of war and the words of diplomacy lead on to the potential of brighter tomorrows. Cool to see the Picard - Tomalak interactions as well as ground battle formations. Curious to see more of Sayaran.

Excellent production! Detailed, compelling, and highly entertaining! No one expects the prefix command codes!

[geekiusmaximus]

The Offenbach bit was a little weird but everything else was ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
The Klingon and Federation cooperating attacks were incredible and did I see some lost era Stormbirds escorting the black legion's warbirds? :0
THE DOMINION DID HAVE FIGHTERS!!! :O
This episode has a little bit of everything!
Also hot damn the fleets are getting BIG. Like REALLY BIG. Multiple massed attacks, 200+ ships per engagement for a lot of these. Long story short, epic.
I'll save my more analytical thoughts for after soaking up this awesome episode a few more times.

I'm about to say is from The Babylon 5 movie a call to Arms, " Romans had a name for it they called it poisoning the well when they were driven from an area they literally poisoned water wells so that no one else could live there either the ultimate expression of spite." I think that best expresses you wrote for this episode Venom geek I enjoyed it even though the end s my heart looking forward to your next one

[miamijules]

I don’t know where you come up with this shit Venom but DAMMMMNNNN ITS GOOD. I mean like ITS GOOD. And wow bro... wow... I knew they’d blow up that facility!

[lynandraelifersss]

Outstanding! I especially enjoyed the conversations between Picard and Tamalok.

[TimothyChapman]

If the Dominion hadn't previously overplayed their hand with the presence of the Federation's plot armor erasing an entire Dominion fleet out of existence, their attempt to destroy a Federation home world has just marked the beginning of the end of the Cardassian's membership with the Dominion.

[ISAF_Ace]

The dominion moved too quickly and too aggressively, everything was rolled back on them shortly after gaining it. The Kalandra offensive is very much like the battle of the bulge, the last great dominion counterattack which expended their remaining strength. They will be briefly rejuvenated later on, but even that is not enough at this point. In my opinion, the Dominion had entered a terminal decline in the quadrant, like the Byzantine empire after then end of the Komnenos dynasty, they would never again achieve the great power they once held. Like the Byzantines as well, the dominion has gone way past the point of negotiating for its continued existence in the quadrant and its enemies will settle for nothing less than the end of the hated enemy.

[darrenrenna]

Great video, what a cool final scene! Tomalak and Picard meeting as colleagues, sadly we never saw it on television, but great that Venom Geek was able to give it to us!

[ShannonCarter]

Sweet. Really good to learn more about what happened at Benzar. What's next in the Dominion War? Liberation of Betazed? First Battle of Chin'toka? Ricktor Prime? Sybaron?

[shanenolan]

I have been looking forward to this cheers. I am going to save it this tonight. ( to fully appreciate)
