Obviously, one of the more significant characters in the series is eliminated. This is truly sad because these personages become sort of family-like. The Federation decides to take the action to the Cardassians. They know this will be an overwhelming task. First, they need the Romulans to carry their weight. They are so self-consumed, it is hard to depend on them. Sisko is given control over the entire operation. Dukat, seen as a mad man by his own people, returns and takes on demon status. One of the things one forgets to notice is a really significant part of all wars. When the Federation takes on Cardassia, a huge number of Federation and Klingon vessels are destroyed. If i remember correctly, they contain huge crew numbers. Thousands are killed. When one cast member dies, it is horrible for Ben. We forget the cannon fodder. Once again, the Prophets are central to what is going on and the Bajorans can't seem to take two steps without them. It will be interesting to see the Season 7 first episode.
