Hmmm tom, if the enterprise E and defiant were around at the same time, ---- why not have you commanding both ships at different points of the game?
Afterall, Worf certanly moved around in the cruse. i love the idea of exploration or scanning missions with unexpected events (much like the next gen episodes), and that would seem the prerogative of one of the enterprise ships, but tactical fighting might be fun as well. How about set the game just before the dominion war, have a few missions with the enterprise E, then switch to the defiant during the war, ---- and perhaps a few more missions with the enterprise E. with things being single ship, I'd love to see some variety, though obviously this would mean more work for you. Just my thoughts (particularly as I'm just about to embark on a massive watch of ds9, so soon will know all about the dominion war). Beware the Grue!
