Admiral Jarok's Tactical Intelligence Dossier

A consolidated, bridge‑ready intelligence packet attributed to Admiral Jarok containing encrypted schematics, star charts, fleet-strength tallies, annotated threat assessments, tactical plans and proposed maneuvers with Jarok's voiceprint and classified metadata. Presented as projected tactical overlays and briefing files, the dossier functions as decisive operational intelligence used by the Enterprise crew (Geordi, Picard et al.) to inform navigation and engagement decisions regarding Nelvana Three.

Purpose

To provide actionable tactical intelligence and recommended courses of action that inform starship navigation, engagement strategy, and high‑level command decisions.

Significance

Functions as the decisive intelligence precipitating the Enterprise’s course toward Nelvana Three; it catalyzes a fraught command choice that risks treaty violation and tests trust in a possibly deceptive source. The plans shift the plot’s stakes by converting disputed intelligence into a binding operational commitment.

Picard Accepts Jarok's Risk — Course Set for Nelvana Three

Admiral Jarok's Tactical Plans are invoked by Picard as the factual core of the defector's offer—mapped strength, location and proposed maneuvers that justify an operational response. The plans function as the immediate cause for ordering a course and as the contested evidence whose credibility Picard must weigh.

Before: Transmitted to the Enterprise and available to senior command as a vouchered intelligence packet.

After: Used as the operational basis to set course for Nelvana Three and treated as provisional evidence pending verification.

Nelvana Three — The Risk of Belief

Admiral Jarok's Tactical Plans are presented (referenced aloud by Picard) as the primary intelligence payload: fleet strengths, locations, and tactical plans which the senior officers must weight. The plans function as the explicit cause for action—Picard uses them to justify setting a course—while their contested provenance creates dramatic friction.

Before: Transmitted to the Enterprise and available to Picard; stored as encrypted data believed to be vouchsafed by Jarok.

After: Retained aboard the Enterprise as the operative intelligence basis for the Nelvana Three course; subject to verification and analysis by engineering and tactical teams.
