Changes: Tomed Incident

Revision as of 13:47, 16 December 2014

The Tomed Incident was a terrible confrontation between the United Federation of Planets and the Romulan Star Empire in 2311 that cost thousands of lives. The incident at Tomed led to the signing of the Treaty of Algeron, which banned Federation research into or use of any cloaking device, and led to the withdrawal of the Romulan government from interstellar affairs until 2364. (TNG: "The Neutral Zone", "The Pegasus", "The Defector"; ENT: "These Are the Voyages...")

The Tomed Incident was the primary focus of the Lost Era novel, Serpents Among the Ruins. In the staged terrorist attack, the flagship of the Romulan fleet, the Tomed, crashed into a Federation base at high warp. When the quantum singularity confinement of the Tomed failed, the massive explosion wiped out thirteen Starfleet outposts, as well as the USS Agamemnon. While the official casualties numbered in the thousands, in reality the Agamemnon and the bases were all empty, rigged to emit false lifesigns. The thousands of Starfleet personnel listed as killed in the attack were already dead - their deaths in the past year having been covered up - and records fabricated to appear that they had been stationed there. The act of terror was orchestrated by Starfleet Intelligence to diffuse the rising tensions between the two powers, forcing the Romulan Empire to stand down when the Klingons sided with the Federation in the wake of the attack.

-{{bginfo|The Tomed Incident was the primary focus of the ''[[Star Trek: The Lost Era|Lost Era]]'' [[Novels|novel]], ''[[Serpents Among the Ruins]]''. In the novel, the warbird ''Tomed'' crashes into an asteroid, housing a Federation base, at high warp, and because the containment of its quantum singularity had failed, the massive explosion which results distorts the fabric of spacetime and wipes out numerous Starfleet outposts, as well as the USS ''Agamemnon''. However, while the "official" casualties (including [[Esteban Rodriguez]] and [[Tom Paris]]'s grandfather) number in the thousands, the ''actual'' death toll is six, all Romulan; the ''Agamemnon'' and the bases were empty, rigged to emit false lifesigns, the thousands of Starfleet personnel listed as killed in the attack already dead - their deaths in the past year having been covered up - and records fabricated to appear that they had been stationed there.}}
