Heh. As long as it's not in MY fleet or ship, I'm ok with that. Oh...and she has to lead the charge in an engagement.

[screwoffreg]

If Tali leads the Migrant Fleet against the Reapers...let's just say extinction for the Quarian species is a very real possibility..

[SL22]

Didn't she say it can take a really long time before someone is even considered for a position by the Admirals, let alone actually becoming one?

[Frotality]

the combined 1000 pages dedicated to tali suggest nothing but a teammate again would be acceptable.

THIS.  
Because people who performed surgery on their childhood toys are just plain awesome.

I don't see her leaving Shepards side until the Reapers are beaten. She pretty much has no reason to leave, so I doubt this happens.

Did you play ME2? Was she not leading several missions when you met her both times?

I don't want her to be an admiral, since I really want her to continue being in my squad. But putting my bias aside, I don't think it'll happen.

-She's pretty young still, and the Quarians don't seem like the type who'll put someone young into that position.
-vas Normandy
-She's not a good leader. She's got a good head on her shoulders, but she's prone to letting emotions get the better of her. Plus we saw how she completely failed to keep those Quarians on Freedom's Progress under her command. Compare that to Shepard for example, who can talk his way into letting a Geth attend a Quarian hearing on the Flotilla.

All this. And didn't bioware say something about your LI playing a big part in ME3?

[marshalleck]

You know, I just played through her discussion in ME1 where she tells you her father is an Admiral. You can ask her if that makes her quarian royalty, and she says her father's rank is not hereditary.

That means she couldn't simply be 'elevated' to Admiral without breaking some of the social/political customs of the quarians. It could happen of course, the writers can write whatever they want, but I still think it would make more sense and be more believable if Tali were to join the Conclave instead, which is the civilian branch of government.

Still I'd prefer to have the character in my squad.

I love Claudia Black.  I just have a feeling I will have to blow her through an airlock in ME 3.  Oh well...

Nah, I think that it just means that you have to "earn" your position on the admiralty board.

After the trial - assuming that you didn't get her exiled and she doesn't hate you -  Tali mentions that there are actually people suggesting that she be voted onto the board.  In such a situation, it wouldn't be her bloodline that got her the seat.

[arafinwe_ingalaure]

I want Tali'Zorah Vas Normandy in my squad. She must be because she's a love interest. She can't be an Admiral, she's too young for that.

You mean the team who ignored her orders, ran off, and got killed? Real aspiring leader she is.

Also was it ever said she was in charge of the marines Haestrom? It seemed like she was only in charge of the science. Regardless, they all die again.

Also try putting her in charge of one of the fireteams during the suicide mission and see what happens.

Tali is genius mechanic, even by Quarian standards, but she is a poor leader.

I suspect it's because she's just getting started, and keeps ending up in lousy situations.

Freedom's Progress might have gone better if her team didn't suddenly decide that it needed to "compete" with Cerberus (i.e. your team) and get to Veetor first.  Haestrom was just a disaster no matter how you look at it.  The Quarrians were so badly outnumbered (and not composed of elite troops, unlike your group...) that they would have needed a lot more marines to avoid the mess that it turned into.

After hearing that, it makes sense why she wouldn't. Maybe in the near future, but not in ME3.

Heh. I'd sooner chuck Tali (and Grunt and Jacob and Miranda and Jack...) into vacuum...
Dangit. I want Wrex back.

[77boy84]

Make her an admiral and give us Kal'Reegar.

Please.

He's the only cool quarian.

[RhythmlessNinja]

send over korin vas qwib qwib and we gots a deal bioware.

[DeMoNxDaVe]

Bioware is going to ****** off fans either way but yeah. I want tali in my squad.

[Collider]

Tali has minimal leadership experience. She's not really fit for being an admiral beyond the role of symbolism. Plus, she has to be with Shepard fighting the Reapers, and eventually marrying him.

Not all of our shepards are dirty xeno-lovers. <_<

[Snowraptor]

she wont be admiral, i wont let her

[SuperVaderMan]

Didn't bother reading most of this thread... but my guess is that Kal'Reeger's gonna be the next admiral, if you save him in your playthrough. I mean he was a squad leader wasn't he? That makes him more capable than Tali in my books

[Collider]

Edited for being too acerbic.

An interesting thought but unlikely, for the sole reason that tali can get exiled so she could never return to the fleet let alone become an admiral. I would say she might be given the option to become an admiral at the end of ME3. And I would say she either accepts or declines based on your relationship with her. But he being one right from the start seems preety unlikely, but we'll see wont we.
