Compared to other conflicts mentioned here the numbers involved are much smaller in scope, 40 Starfleet vessels and a single Borg Cube.

Deep Space Nine’s “Sacrifice of Angels” 25 Years On

Deep Space Nine revolutionized so much of what could be possible in the world of Star Trek, but it will always be remembered for one of its most transgressive plot threads: the devastating outbreak of the Dominion War, a conflict that, 25 years ago, challenged everything the franchise’s idealistic vision of utopia could stand for.01:25Randall Park's Favorite SuperheroesMonday 5:02PMAlthough the Dominion had been an ever-growing threat throughout the fifth season of Deep Space Nine, its dramatic finale—and the coming…
