Mission Briefing ::

At Star Base 09 the USS Endeavour was equipped with a new cloaking device and Captain Kynes was ordered to deliver the new technology to the USS Flame. While in route finds a mysterious ship adrift. The ship’s main systems have been knocked out and artificial-gravity has been lost on most decks. There are no life signs to be detected but scanners indicate that the ship’s warp core is leaking moni-decurions, a toxic energy form that is produced when the warp core can no detoxify waste products. The USS Endeavor comes into close range to investigate, and without notice the mysterious ship explodes, knocking out the Endeavor’s shields.

At the very moment that the shields are lost, two Romulan vessels de-cloak and begin attacking the ship. The USS Endeavour is disabled, boarded, and hostages are taken. The Romulans were assigned to capture the cloaking device and deliver it to Remus. If the Romulans are allowed this technology, they will have the ability to fire weapons while cloaked. Now the crew has a race against time to disable the enemy boarders.

Hmmm, you have just had a mission man, and besides i don't realy like it. The federation had no cloaking till the defiant class witch is almost 100 years after this. so i realy don't think this is a good idea, sorry. and besides the Endeavour even shieldless would be a difficult match for romulan ships of this era witch are a 5th of its size. I mean we would inflict heavy damage, and besides im to good a pilot to let them land every shot=P lol anyways i just dont like the idea.

[Commander Vorak]

I like it other than the cloak part. The federation dont use cloak until the dominion wars and that kinda cloak was a prototyep destroyed last mission (st6)

[luno]

Alright, what do you sugest the technology be?

[Commander Vorak]

Perhaps somthing we discover that would be valuable to the Romulans or mabye a new species.

[luno]

Perhaps Replicator Techonology, or Holo-Decks?

[Commander Vorak]

hmm yes holodecks jmake for excellent soilder training. They would like it.

[Rudger McVanlen]

hmmm well something about it i still dont like it, and plus that would be two episodes almost in a row writen by the same crewmen. We still need to do the episode i made as part two of my three part story for the drengin.

[luno]

I don`t mean it needs to be done ASAP John. It's just an idea ...

[Commander Vorak]

Blinded is next followed by what ever plot is voted for in a poll i will make of a few ideas

I'm sorry John and Karl, you are both incorrect, the first prototype for a federation cloak was implemented on the USS Pegasus a Oberth class vessel, its helmsman was 'Ensign' William T. Riker, and it was Captained by Captain Pressmen. This was seen in the TNG episode, 'The Pegasus' not only was this episode alone a long time before the dominion war, but the test ship in question was tested many years before this episode again.

There's no reason to say that this can't be a fore runner to the cloak we saw in this episode, not to mention the romulan cloak that Kirk stole a mere 30 years prior might've had something to do with this.

So the answer is that the cloak could very much be possible, and hey, cloaks are always good, to solve the problem john suggest, the fact you directed episode 11, this episode could be directed by admin instead, and just written by jeff as another player.
