LOC Veteran Posted November 29, 2004 Veteran Share Posted November 29, 2004 They haven't actually introduced the Romulans yet have they? There was that one group of emotional or some what different Vulcans from the first season but that's about it. 585005452[/snapback] Actually they were in an episode in Season 2 called "Minefield" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted November 29, 2004 Veteran Share Posted November 29, 2004 I wasn't sure...Romulans have cloaking tech right? So do Klingons..so why doesn't the Federation? 585005577[/snapback] Cloaking technology is unique to the Romulans and Klingons. The Federation eventually gets it (Stealth technology). As seen in the VOY episode Eng Game, Part 2. Admiral Janeway's shuttle was cloaked right outside the unimatrix hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G4M3R Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 I wasn't sure...Romulans have cloaking tech right? So do Klingons..so why doesn't the Federation? 585005577[/snapback] I remember it in a TNG being talked about. Something about the Federation signing a treaty or something about not devoloping cloaking technology. I think it was in the Pegaus episode where they use a phased cloak to escape from inside an asteriod after being sealed in by the Romulans by passing through solid rock.

Samoa Posted November 29, 2004 Author Share Posted November 29, 2004 ^ yes I remember that. I always thought it would be rather stupid for the federation to sign such a treaty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also didnt Kirk take a cloaking device from Klingons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G4M3R Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 FYI The Treaty of Algeron was a peace treaty signed between the United Federation of Planets and the Romulan Star Empire in the early 24th century, following the events of the Tomed Incident. The treaty reinforced the Romulan Neutral Zone, and made clear that any violations of the Zone without adequate notification, by either side, would be considered an act of war. (TNG: "The Defector") The use of a cloaking device by a Federation starship is strictly prohibited by this treaty. Admiral Pressman attempted to circumvent this clause in 2358 with the test of an interphase cloaking device aboard the USS Pegasus. (TNG: "The Pegasus") Prior to the episode "The Pegasus", it was believed that the Treaty of Algeron had been signed at the end of the Earth-Romulan War. According to this episode, though, it had been signed about 60 years before.
