I'm still wondering though... is it possible to go to warp when the impulse engine is down?
Some episodes say yes, others seem to say no... very confusing.

I could always check my ST:TNG Tech Manual.  God, I'm such a Trekkie.  Got the Tech Manual, Encyclopedia, PLUS the limited-run blueprints for the now-deceased NCC-1701-D.  Let's build a starship, guys!   :D

I know for sure that you don't need warp to go to impulse. I can remeber a few episodes of DS9 and Voyager in which the impulse engine was broken, and they could go to warp still.

I'm still working on an M2 Bradley. Ran out of one of the air brush paints and been too lazy to get it. It's incredibly detailed and I have been taking my time with it to get it right.

hm_murdock:
Impulse = fusion drive. There is a fusion reactor, and they blow charged particles out the back. It's a fancy rocket.

Warp = Antimatter or fusion powered FTL drive that utilizes subspace fields to manipulate gravity to "pull" the ship along using a constantly moving gravity well.

Refalm:
So basically, the impulse drive and the warp drive are two very different things?
