As a continuation of comments made in the latest Enterprise weekly discussion thread I'd like to know:
Is it just me, or does anyone else see trouble here?

would be tricky, as current continuity holds that Romulans didn't make first contact with humans until the time period of the original Star Trek series.
Now, is my memory failing me, or was it not established in the original introduction of the Romulans in TOS episode "The Balance of Terror" that the (pre-Federation?) Earth space force had fought a war with them
a) never seeing Romulans themselves
and
b) in pre-warp-capable spacecraft????
This was supposed to have taken place about 100 years before Kirk's time, no? If so, that would mean that Berman and company can't pull off such an adventure without gross violatoin of the established canon ("history") of the franchise, since Enterprise is already premised on technical progress beyond b)?
Am I misremembering?
