Heck, all of the ST series do that, to one extent or another. I know Enterprise was probably originally intended to show the backstory before TOS, but from what I can infer from these Posts, it's gone astray. I just haven't seen too many since Season 1 to make a judgement.

Huh? The mod is in no way broken. most of the comments I've seen represent at best minor tweeaks which you could put or leave out and it would make little difference.

I am in the current STM2 game and I can tell you I enjoy it immensely. It's fantastic how it really "feels" like Star Trek. I haven't downloaded the latest Version yet, but the one used in STM2 is just great.

thanks,

Alarik

It is time to call it a night. Thank GOD for restore option.....

With all the chat lately about technical crap I lost focus on the game. Can any one tell me if they are enjoying the mod currently and are having fun?

Any positive remarks that come to mind about the mod that you would like to share would be nice.

Remember that Enterpise is the result of a TEMPERAL time war. Archers mission was started because of this, and altimately will never have happened as a result of this. "The Time Lime must be restored, your place in history is not as you are, but as you have not become."

Enterpise has grown into a very interesting series with some damn good episodes of late.

I have only seen the first series of Enterprise. But my impression was that Archers mission was interrupted by the temperal cold war not caused by it, or are you saying the time line was broken before the events shown the first series.

The Enterprise series isn’t that bad, the first series any way. The problem with the series is that it is trying to fill in the back story of pre-TOS by taking the facts of pre-TOS and trying to make a more believable back story for TOS. An example of this is that the Romulans have warp ability and cloaking ability in the series, but this is a known contradiction of facts of the pre-TOS back story. If the facts of the pre-TOS back story are to be believed, without question, as some Star Trek fans do, the Romulans fought a war with the Vulcans, Andorians and Humans, all without warp ability?

The fact that Romulans have cloaking ability in the The Enterprise series is not a big problem either because the Enterprise’s Sensors are really bad. Better Sensors would/may have seen the Romulan ship. This is only a my theory: I haven’t see the Romulan episode of The Enterprise series yet.

OK, so in the STM2 game, I just spent the Last however many turns building some 10 odd ships. Only to find that when finished none of them have any movement points.

OK, so, clearly I need to get a grip on the scaled movement points + bonus (warp) points = >0 movement.

BUT, I am looking at the Cardassian Small Transport. It;s specs say it can have a MAX of 3 engines. BUT, with 3 engines, it has zero movement. How can I get around this? Am I just stupid, missing something basic?

thanks,

Alarik

And, while I'm at it, can someone explain to me why Cardassians seem to all want to riot even though I am building troops up the wazoo all over the place? The situation just seems to get worse, even though pretty much every build queue I have is pumping out riot police like nobody's business...Just looking for some advice, not complaining...

thanks,

Alarik

Did you select Xenophobic race? Or lower your happiness points below 95%?

I am not in the game, so if you want, send me your PW and I can look into it.
