    So they don't use ballistic projectiles, unless the author has redefined ballistic projectiles as concentrated energy beams. Mitchell asked three time if the guns were ready to fire, bad leadership, the guns should have been ready to fire before the confrontation. I got to around 13 minutes before the gag reflex kicked in.

      you've got more fortitude than I. I've been putting all these channels on my ignore list since I accidentally listened to one months ago...and they just keep popping up and not going away.

    Yes. The Vastness of Space.

    In space, one cannot "hold the line", because it's all 3-D. While asteroid fields might be useful at times, intelligent attackers would come from "above" or "below" the plane of the ecliptic, so a spherical defense would be necessary.

    It didn't use heavy armor and ballistic weapons, though, did it? It used shields and energy beams lol

    This writer can't write without "resilience, shining eyes, determination, pride, confidence, and repeating jingoist phrases without apparent purpose beyond more words. There is no "meat" to the plot, no familiarization with characters. It's only names usually borrowed from history. I believe this writer can't be over 12 years old. Investigate something called a "thesaurus". I want to care about characters. I want to find drama. I want a plot. Repeating "bang bang bang" does not make a story no matter how many freaking eyes you shine with confident resilience.

      Let's add "the tension was palpable". The writer also needs to learn that every noun or verb doesn't demand an adverb or adjective to give the illusion of substance.

      He needs an intervention to force him to put the thesaurus away.

    Wait...I thought that "Unconditional Surrender" Meant it is over. How is it that Zorac (which was captured in battle) is preparing for a second battle?

    As humans we already have plasma force fields though they wouldn't work in space unless the craft also ejected the gases to use. czcams.com/users/shortswMakv5GCcvk?app=desktop

    I'm sorry, but this is boring. Nothing original happens within the first twelve minutes and I'm not going to wait if it gets better.
