Okay, then let us send over transporter bombs instead of troops so we can protect us a little better, save our people from getting wasted, and still do damage to the enemy vessel.

I can see it now...
'Drop shield 6!'
'Shield 6 down, sir!'
'Transporter...engage!'
'Bridge, transport complete!'
'Shield up! Weapons...now!'
(Visual of internal explosions)
'Sir, sensors indicate severe internal damage! They are venting atmosphere!'
'Helm...60 degrees to starboard! Aft phasers fire!'

Mmm, yes! I love a good battle!

I'ld rather be a dwarf in a 4 ft wide hallway than an Ogre --
Ogre always make a better target --
Especially if the hallway is also only 5 ft or so high --

Probably even worse on a Tholian vessel ---

On a Tholian ship the "hallways" can be upside-down and rightway round pretty much anywhere. Very odd shapes and odd beings.

Well we have gotten off-topic pretty far. It's been a great avenue for me to image how the boarding parties might interact. I appreciate everyone's input that has helped me to understand boarding and the hit & run tactics. However, I'm not really exicted to see this go into what's "real" or what's scientifically possible in a futuristic setting that really has nothing to do with the topic. Thanks again everyone.

I suppose the use of ludicrously large words is inevitable? Smile

You're right though, I guess the Hydrans would be good in hand to hand combat.

Make that hand to hand to hand combat...

"Hand to Hand" combat in the SFU is usually pistols & grenades, with the occasional use of knives. Although the Kzintis do seem to like to get physical, and Slirdarians as well.
