So an old ship with new guns, coming to visit an out of the way world. ::stands:::
Cdr Edra Crow – Negotiations — 06/18/2024 9:13 PM
I don’t suppose the Klingon Empire would keep track of derelict ships…

Lt Kerwen Nuhl-Helm — 06/18/2024 9:14 PM
Very odd that an old ship would have new guns if they were here in .. a nice way.
Cpt H Crow — 06/18/2024 9:14 PM
Klingons usually wouldn’t waste new tech like that, would they?
