What you'd expect when two fan groups collide!

There is a huge (and very nice) fandom for Star Trek. There also are tons of historical re-enactors who often recreate the US Civil War (I even met some of them from the UK). So, if you've ever wondered what you'd get if you combined the two fandoms....well that would be the fan film "United We Stand".

Some sort of alien virus has invaded the ship's computer. When they are trying to isolate and eliminate it, there's an explosion and Kirk and McCoy wake up in the US Civil War. McCoy is a Confederate and Kirk is a Union man....and it's the day before the incredibly bloody Battle of Antietam.

It was nice to see the series off the ship and in the real world. Often the best episodes of the various Trek shows were best when not confined to the ship alone. On the other hand....the episode itself didn't particularly impress me...mostly because it didn't seem to make a lot of sense.
