Re: Where would you place Star Trek on the tech scale?
 

Plus the federation have some secret weapons that will make your empire gullable and per-dick-ta-bull and they will destroy you with one well placed shot. So if you meet the federation you better have researched Story Arc level 3 or you have 1 hour left to live. P.S. Story Arc level 2 gives you 1 season of playing time.

P.S. Don't forget to mine suns etc.... just incase they want to slingshot around them and attack you 300 years in the past.
