MoulinRouge 0 Posted August 8, 2003 Check out these spoilers from episode two that appeared at Trektoday. Jonathan, Jonathan, Jonathan.....you have grown a pair. Morally ambiguous indeed. Sounds tasty. Attention ladies and gentlemen we have left the 24th century and all its nobility. Click for Spoiler: Set approximately two weeks later, "Anomaly" revolves around an attack by a group of aliens known as the Ventaxians. The Enterprise crew drives the boarders off and follows them back to their base, a large sphere which has its own cloaking device. When Xindi material is found on the sphere, Archer becomes obsessed about finding further information on the mysterious species. Convinced that the Ventaxians have material that could be of use in their databanks, Archer "uses airlock decompression to force the Ventaxian to reveal important codes". This reckless act leads the crew to speculate that the Delphic Expanse could be taking its toll on their captain...... Wow!!!!! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jack_Bauer 1 Posted August 13, 2003 Weren't Ventaxians in "Devil's Due (TNG)" or a similarly named race? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack_Bauer 1 Posted August 16, 2003 Yep, Ventaxians were in Devil's Due (TNG). Could this be the same race or another race with the same name? Or have the writers lost originality? Episode still sounds good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoulinRouge 0 Posted August 17, 2003 Just because a race has been mentioned once on some obscure episode of TNG they can never be used again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack_Bauer 1 Posted August 17, 2003 I'd have no problem if they reuse races over again. However, I don't think they'll be using the original Ventaxians. Of course, it could be the same race since the Klingons first made contact with them and the Klingons have been in the Delphic Expanse. Anyway, it would just seem odd if there were two races with the same name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trekzone 0 Posted August 17, 2003 dont get me wrong, i love trektoday....however i like to keep my eyes "on the bird", thus meaning i dont believe in speculation. While they may have a good source, there is no substitute for straight from the horses mouth is there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted August 17, 2003 If I remember correctly (I did not go re-watch Devils Due) there was nothing stated or implied the events of DD was a First Contact with the Ventaxian's. According to the reference book Captains Logs (page 101) there is an TAS episode of the same name and nearly the same circumstances. Paraphrased; Responding to a distress signal from a solar system that should not exist the Ent. arrives at Neuterra. Upon beaming down they find a paradise and a profound sadness cause the world is going to be destroyed in 20 days, that is when a 1000 year old contract with a being named Komether will be up. Twist on the tale... Click for Spoiler: In this version Kirk discovers the being Komether is a construct of the Neuterra own imaginations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack_Bauer 1 Posted August 17, 2003 I'm not saying it violates continuity, it just seems odd two races with the same name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
