DS9 Question

[superman9595]

Anyone knows what was the final Casualties count after the dominion surredered. I know the Cardassian was well over 800,000,000 but what about the federation side.

[Tenebrae]

Never stated.

 

Is it in the millions? Well... I think it quite possibly could be but I think that we can only really speculate.

[TFMF]

I'd imagine it would be close to the Dominions losses - it was a close battle

[Steveo]

I doubt it, the Federation was on the defensive for a long, long time, with a reasonably (comparably) short offence.

[superman9595]

well according to wikipedia, billions of peole gave their lives in the struggle.

[Steveo]

Depends on the useage of billion. I use the UK, not the US, Billion.

[Tenebrae]

You've made a crucial mistake supes - listening to wiki. Unless it's citing, it's generally just someone remembering something or expressing an opinion. Canonically, the total casualty level was never stated... although the Augments did calculate the losses if the war ran its course. They didn't factor in the Prophets winning the war though. Or section 31.

 

No one really uses British billions anymore.

[hayden]

perhaps you should wirte a letter to the producers or writters to get an exact number. that would answer it for you.

[Steveo]

I just find that British billions make more sense, but I'll agree, it's a defunct numerical classification.
