“As soon as their shields get low enough to do a 10% accurate transport, transport as much of their warp core from engineering to the bridge as you can. Then when shields fail entirely, get the rest.”
Though maybe the core shielding would also block transports, or else you’d figure “eject warp core” would involve the transporter. Or maybe they could even just use “stick the warp core in the transporter buffer until, uh, we delete it? Or use a simulated copy to figure out what transformations we could apply to fix it?”
Or: “Just run the transporter over their ship and move random molecules around.”
Or, depending on exactly how transporters work: “Convert as much of their warp core shielding into plutonium as you can, such that we can still warp away from the blast in time.”
If you could just transform matter, it could be possible to use a transporter and a pattern to have a shuttle sneak into an area and build a fleet of warships. Or to build one if attacked. I think been the replicator and transporter, Star Trek has the tech covered, it’s just a question of energy, but I have a feeling that the amount of energy needed to create Starships (minus warp capability) is trivial compared to the amount of energy required to create and sustain a high factor warp field.
They’re not transporting through Shields thing always bothered me. Okay so you can’t reliably get something through the shields? I bet you could get… At least a little bit?
Ngl I’ve kinda wondered why that was never seen/ used.
“Oh we surrender! Lower your shield and our capt will beam over < boom >…”
The Cisco would do it.
The Cisco would simply destroy the enemies ships network equipment by using one of millions backdoors they had to install.
Sisko on the other hand would go over and pimp hand the captain.
Sorry but everytime I see a comment regarding the Sisko being spelled like the Networking Company I die a little.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn it!
Lol yes the Sisko
Gdism
They do it in one episode of voyager to a Borg vessel.
I bet there’s a whole database of borg zero-days that only captains are allowed to access, since using one means it’ll be patched right away.
The Asgard had a problem with it too but they caved almost instantly
I’m sure there’s something important in the warp core you could transport out as well
