Boarding Actions, performing and defending against.
So, I was wondering after watching a lot of Star Trek (all eras), what kind of problems you have figuring out what kind of personnel you need to take on a boarding action, and how you would prepare to defend the ship against expected boarding parties.
Like when defending, how do you deploy your security personnel, like around sensitive areas (engineering, aux con, bridge). Do you think some ships have natural choke points engineered into them? The "neck" of Klingon ships come to mind. What systems would be restricted? I think that turbolifts wouldn't allow just anyone go to the bridge during a red alert or intruder alert.
And when attacking, I suppose you would have the typical "commando" team make-up. A leader, demo, medic, engineer, and a couple of shooters would probably make the best team composition.
