[uokoxywl] Star Trek Deep Space 9 and Deep Space Gamma-1 twin space superfortresses

imagine if the Federation weren't monumentally incompetent and instead appropriately fortified the most strategic transport corridor in the galaxy.  hundreds of Starfleet warships patrol both mouths of the stable wormhole.

there's a battle on the Gamma quadrant side, but the Federation, having discovered the wormhole first, had first move advantage, so had thoroughly entrenched around the Gamma mouth before the Dominion could attack.  how quickly can you construct a battlestation from components carried through the wormhole?  maybe not so hard because you have replicators.

but CGI is expensive.
