And then Starfleet invented the Danube class which could either take a Galor in a straight fight or tow one at warp 5 like a disobedient toddler, and deployed them to what was once Terok Nor. That had to sting.

Really, the dumbest part of all of this is that the Cardassians didn't really take the opportunity at any point to draft up better ships than the Galor and Keldon.
One of the things that amused me a shitload about Bridge Commander was the sheer number of Galors and Keldons you left wrecks of throughout the Maelstrom by the end of the campaign.

I actually didn't mind that part. Based on Kira's little comparison demo of the Cardassian and Fefderation phaser rifles to Ziyal during their pirate phase, Cardassian technology was supposed to be like IRL slavshit weapons - simple, rugged, reliable, ugly as fuck, and largely unchanged for the past few decades. Then the Dominion War happened. It would probably be the 25th century before they got their shit together enough to make a new generation of capital ship.
I suppose. I just don't like how far it gets taken sometimes in the series. Like, Enterprise literally wanted us to believe that the D-7 type cruiser had a service life of two goddamn centuries.
>That one episode where a rogue Nebula class was completely unstoppable to the bulk of the Cardassian military
>That same episode a Gul finds out Starfleet can effortlessly decode Cardassian IFFs and track all their ships with ease
Really, the Ferengi were more of a threat, their D'kora Marauders were at least comparable to the Galaxy class.
>tfw an enterprising DaiMon could have waltzed through Cardassian space looting and enslaving unopposed.

Did they? I thought those were earlier takes on the general design, like maybe a D-2. Even STID showed the 2250s as having a "D-4" predecessor design.

Fuck, that's stupid. Rick Berman strikes again.
Is there any point to starting to play STO today, especially if I'm not going to fork over any money for it?
