Re: Seniority
There is an offical star fleet regulation that says the captain with tacticle superiority gain over all command.
It came up in the Voyager episode with Equinox.

What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Re: Seniority
I saw someone mention it as a posibility but not as canon, I tend to speed read if there is more than a page of posts.

We know from Equinox 1 or 2 (can't remember which) that whichever Captain is in Command of the Tactically Superior Vessel assumes Command for the action.
There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.

Re: Seniority
Yeah well I got the real quote soRegulation 191, Article 14: In a combat situation involving more than one ship, command falls to the vessel with tactical superiority.

Oh it's canon, I won't dispute that. I dispute whether it's wise, given who was involved.Teaos wrote:I saw someone mention it as a posibility but not as canon, I tend to speed read if there is more than a page of posts.

So you do... lol

Re: Seniority
I dunno dude, it was awefully convienant that this reg got trotted out in the episode. Almost like their was an invisible force screwing with them, I shall dub her Writovah!Mikey wrote:

Re: Seniority
They could but she would probably get them for discrimination, throw in harassment if she asks them to stop and they don't... Maybe thats how she made Admiral so fast...Mikey wrote:Unfortunately, they can't write regulations with the clause "... except when Janeway is involved."Cpl Kendall wrote:Oh it's canon, I won't dispute that.

She might have pimped out 7o9 to get the job.

And share her snookums? I never figured Janeway as a swapper.Teaos wrote:She might have pimped out 7o9 to get the job.
Re: Seniority
Amen to that. Had that Regulation not got pulled out of somewhere that shall remain nameless, we would have to assume that the most senior captain (which I believe would be Ransom since Janeway just got promoted to Captain and assigned to Voyager before getting lost). Boy, would the series have turned out differently then, huh? What a relief to have those writers of regulations on your side, huh?Cpl Kendall wrote:I dunno dude, it was awefully convienant that this reg got trotted out in the episode.
