That would be his bestie, Sir Ian McKellen.

It remains an ongoing source of delight that Captain Picard and Gandalf (or Professor X and Magneto, YMMV) are BFFs in real life.

I don’t like that this made me chuckle. Good job.

Reminded me for some reason of the description of what "catastrophic damage" is in the board game Starfleet Battles. Not necessarily the level of the nacelles falling off the ship, but a bit more than the captain's chess board slipping off the table.

Not necessarily the level of the nacelles falling off the ship

I feel like "catastrophic" would be at least that, or maybe at the level of a warp core breach; basically losing chunks of the ship that are required for crew survival. Other categories should just work backwards from there.

Critical damage is what Reliant did to Enterprise.

Catastrophic damage is what Enterprise did to Reliant. :)
