And an engineer would have been able to present that comic in a much nicer fashion!

Those text boxes!

Love this thread.

As a current Tac officer I agree with everything said in this comic and how it is presented.

and watch them wheel in another sky, would that satisfy you?"

lol nice Kerry, I love it, "fire all the things". If I'm in a group of DPS/tanks, I love playing science. But if there's not good enough DPS, my Defiant class owns pretty nicely as long as there's not too much incoming damage.

For me, I *love* how the Tactical captain didn't call out the specific weapon systems. Likely, as they 'slept' through that class at the Academy.

All 'weapon systems' are now 'things'.
