- Comment on The Star Trek Adventures first edition Core Rulebook pdf free for Saturday, June 22 3 days ago:
You don’t have to play the good guys for the system to work, the same system is used for Dune - Adventures in the Imperium, and that’s a setting about as morally grey as it gets. Even with Star Trek Adventures, there is the Klingon Core Rulebook if you want to be a bit more rowdy than your typical Starfleet officers. The Operations Division sourcebook has suggestions for playing as Section 31 as well.

Lack of time is definitely the enemy of table top gaming. I feel very fortunate that I’ve managed to have an ongoing [mostly] weekly STA game for two and half years now.

Right now there are two ongoing series, Star Trek and Star Trek: Defiant, and there’s frequently a number of mini-series happening as well.
They’re pretty fan service heavy, which works for me but I know some people find that to be a hurdle.

So you’re saying you don’t just have an encyclopaedic knowledge of medieval European torture methods?
Huh. Weird.

If we’re being honest, the whole post may or may not have been an excuse to just share that image.

My current completely unfounded theory is that he’s going to use the Progenitor tech to evolve himself – in the Star Trek (derogatory) sense of the word – to the point where he sees the koala and is able to use his powers to stop whatever final confrontation there is.

Yeah, that one was new to me as well.
The Paul Pope art is as gorgeous as one would expect, though.

Assuming that actually is Eric J. Robbins in the comments on that article, he’s the co-writer on the episode, and he’s claiming the librarian is an Efrosian.
I want her book pendant.

I considered suggesting “The Last Outpost”.
- Comment on Searching for the "most representative" Star Trek episode 1 month ago:
I don’t disagree, but I do believe that when we think about what Star Trek is, what it boils down to is an episodic procedural, despite how serialized it can be at times.
- Comment on Searching for the "most representative" Star Trek episode 1 month ago:
My first thought whenever the topic of what episode a person should to introduce Trek to someone comes up is “The Measure of a Man”. Though perhaps a courtroom drama, while certainly something Trek dabbles with on multiple occasions, is not typical enough to fall under the umbrella of conventional.
Maybe something like “Children of the Comet” from season one of SNW. There’s a strange mystery that’s going to spell disaster for a pre-warp civilization, an alien of the week antagonist whom the Enterprise crew needs to figure out how to deal with without getting into a fight, and everything’s neatly wrapped up by the end. The biggest mark against it would be the subplot where Pike’s dealing with the knowledge that he’s going to end up in a beep chair.

- Comment on Were the [REDACTED] also a result of the Progenitors? DIS s5 spoilers 1 month ago:
Writer Carlos Cisco has indicated that they conceptualized the Breen’s solid form as an adaptation that they developed over time
Interesting.
It’s completely unrelated to the current Disco story arc, but that does make me wonder if the Vorta and other Dominion species would have been aware of the Breen’s goo form. The Changelings evolved the ability to shapeshift over time, but were originally solids. having the Breen start out as the soundtrack producers for the “Spider-Man & Venom: Maximum Carnage” video game, and later develop a solid form might seem anathema to the Founders and their worshipers.
- Comment on Canon Connections: DIS 5x05 - Mirrors 1 month ago:
I like the idea that the Breen bodies loose consistency upon death, especially if they’re more gelatinous in their natural form, as these episodes of DIS appear to be presenting them.
However, I do not envy Kira and Dukat having to scoop a bunch of Breen jello out those helmets before putting them on.

I like the idea of Kirk pulling out his wallet to try and chip in for beer and pizza in 1986 with a couple strips of latinum, some Klingon darseks left behind on the Bounty, and whatever Federation credits he has, which I assume are a digital currency.

They do 100% use money in the 23rd century! 24th century is a bit more debatable, but I’m still on the side of they use money.
