Without might no empire can last. It will either fall to its enemies or rot from within. Might made this Empire. Might will ensure that it lasts. Unless we are willing to bring that might down upon the necks of our enemies, and strike them without mercy, then we are not worthy to wield it. Without the willing and deliberate exercise of our might this Empire will surely fall. – Chancellor Kessa War Address to the Klingon High Council prior to the Organian Incursion (2267) - 5 - Table of Contents Preface 15 Fleet Transports Foreward 16 Fleet Auxiliaries State of the Klingon Fleet 17 Selected Shuttlecraft and Small Craft Klingon Hull Types 18 Other Klingon Starship Designs 1 Battleships 19 The Future of the Klingon Fleet 2 Pocket Battleships Appendices 3 Dreadnoughts Klingon Shipyards and Ordinance Manufacturers 4 Shuttlecarriers Glossary of Terms 5 Heavy Cruisers Afterword 6 Battlecruisers 7 Other Cruisers 8 Assault Ships 9 Destroyers 10 Frigates 11 Scouts 12 Escorts 13 Monitors 14 Patrol Craft - 6 - Foreward This one hundred and sixth edition of Guide to the Klingon Fleet comes “authorized,” indicating a vessel that has been authorized but has not at a time when its subject matter is in something of a state of flux.

Richard E. Mandel We have endeavored to follow the general system of presentation used in Federation Fleet Review. GMT (gross metric tonnage) is a measure of the actual physical mass of a starship. This is the mass measurement normally used by Starfleet Intelligence. DWT (deadweight metric tonnage) measures the mass of a starship in subspace as opposed to its true mass in normal space. Deadweight tonnage is the mass measurement used on an operational basis by Starfleet and likewise in most public and civilian publications.

They slaughtered all Klingons who opposed them and looted Q’o’nos and its sister worlds. They moved on, so one account of the legend goes, only when there was nothing left of value. As those Klingons who survived crawled out of the ruins or returned from the hills, they swore as a culture that such a thing would never again happen to them. Thus was born the Fortress Doctrine that has been a part of Imperial military doctrine ever since the earliest days of the Empire. As the Empire expanded, it fortified its holdings. As new conquests were added, older ones were reinforced. Layer upon reinforced layer was built up over centuries, so that by the 23rd century one might describe the Klingon Empire as a concentric set of armed barriers, each more formidable than the last, until one reached the heaviest armed and most protected defenses located in and around the Klingon home and inner systems. It was a tactic guaranteed to slow, if not eventually stop, any attempt at armed invasion. What it did not foresee, what it could not have anticipated, was that the Empire’s fortified heart would be gutted from within by a single, massive stroke of disastrous consequences. Thus the Praxis explosion of 2293 did what no would-be invader since the Hur’q’ The end of the 23rd century, Terran Gregorian calendar, finds the Klingon had done: it brought the Klingon Empre to its knees.

Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek Abstract Hollywood films and eligionr have an ongoing rocky relationship, especially in the realm of science fiction. A brief comparison study of the two giants of mainstream sci-fi, Star Wars and Star Trek reveals the differing attitudes toward religion expressed in the genre. Star Trek presents an evolving perspective, from critical secular humanism to begrudging personalized faith, while Star Wars presents an ambiguous mythological foundation for mystical experience that is in more ways universal. This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol7/iss2/3 Schultes: Any Gods Out There? Science Fiction has come of age in the 21st century. From its humble beginnings, "Sci- Fi" has been used to express the desires and dreams of those generations who looked up at the stars and imagined life on other planets and space travel, those who actually saw the beginning of the space age, and those who still dare to imagine a universe with wonders beyond what we have today.

My own small contribution to this legendary story has continued to be a source of great pride to me during my career, and although I have been fortunate enough to have many other projects to satisfy the artist in me, I have nevertheless always felt a deep and visceral connection to the show. But there are reasons why this never- ending story has endured. I have always believed that this special connection to Star Trek we all enjoy comes from the positive picture the stories consistently envision.
