Some people do take things too seriously. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: PBW Star Trek Game
 

I'll play the Borg if they are still available. And I'll try to keep an appropriate level of treaties. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Would be nice if you could spread the players out on the map a bit. And I would suggest no stellar manip, just because. No particular reason. (but it's not a deal breaker for me or anything.)

Re: PBW Star Trek Game
 

I just realized this. The player can set up their race any way they wish with the points they have. Sorry about the confusion on that. My bad.

Re: PBW Star Trek Game
 

Will the game be effected by the fact that it list the FQM as 2.1, while I we will be using 2.2?

Re: PBW Star Trek Game
 

ok, now I feel like a total hypcocrite (sp?). After seeing the list of players, most of which I have enjoyed playing against, I guess I am interested, particularly in playing the Federation, whom I have never played. Atrocities, give me a description of what the I should or shouldn't do (I dont expect it to be exact of course) with regards to each race. I know that in general the Federation are peaceful and that's ok. I just need to know what my initial reaction should be to each race that I meet and then I will feel comfortable with participating.

Welcome Gravey http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

The Federation is really up to you. There are three types of Federation races that you can play as. Check out the description of the races HERE

Basically, the STGN Federation is:

A diplomatic community of peaceful space faring scientists. They are determined to explore the galaxy and expand their concept of morality upon all others regardless of there prime directive not to interfer. (IMHO they are a manipuating race who enjoy using the high moral road as a distraction to there true nature which is galatic domination.)

The DS9 race is mostly a religious race.

The UCP is a break away federation and is the most hostile of the three. This race can and has resorted to using violence to obtain its goals.

Basically the Federation races are human, therefore subject to human desires. They are mostly a nice people, but when pushed they are mean as hell. They want what they can not have, and will use diplomacy, force, and cunning to obtain it. They are an advanced race, cunning, and have good political and diplomatic skills along with a formidable military force.

They can be freindly and honorable, or cunning and ruthless. They are seldom blood thirsty, but when push comes to shove, they are among the deadlist of all the know races.

I hope that kinda helps you out Gravey. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

The link to the STGN page appears to be broken...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Just get it to use 2.02 instead of 2.01. Not a big deal. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I second the motion to have no Stellar Manipulation. It makes warfare much more interesting than when you can just open WPs to wherever you want in the enemy's empire. Also, you don't have to worry about building tons of planets out of the asteroid rings in FQM with SM off. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
