Midnighter 13 chapter 17 . 5/10/2017 Honestly the only real problem I have with this story is that you effectively have a corporation going up against major powers of the Alpha Quadrant, and constantly winning. You have yet to suffer a single defeat against forces far larger, better equipped, and better trained than your own forces. In the beginning that made sense, you were fighting the enemy when they didn't know what you were capable of, and they didn't really consider you a threat. But now? You have engaged both Romulan and Klingon war fleets head on and not only won, but won with near zero losses each time as well. In every engagement your enemies do something stupid or your captains pull off some hitherto unheard of tactic that no starfleet captain has EVER dreamed of (or the Romulans, or Klingons for that matter) and each time it works perfectly the very first time with no mistakes. The enemy always does exactly what your captains think they will do. There are never any nasty surprises, they have never turned your tactics back on you, in sort there is no risk. At this point you can just sit there, beat fleet after fleet, and then just conquer the entire Klingon Empire because you are just so much better at fighting than they are. It frustrates me because for there to be real tension there needs to be higher stakes with a real risk of failure, and at this point even full battlefleets from hostile empires are little more than a nuisance to your growing empire. Honestly if that's they way you are going I suggest focusing more on the politics of what this new mercenary empire/megacorp means for the galactic players (are there ambassadors on Oz for example?) |

Robin42069 chapter 13 . 5/2/2017 i loved this story so far i ended up staying up late so i could finish after i started. i just couldn't stop reading. i tend to love these kinds of stories. I kinda wish there were more dialog and first person interaction with other characters but i wouldn't change anything about this story. |
