Wow..Killing Time? Why? I have AFFoS and it is horrible. I always wondered why, now I know. Crisis on Centaurus is IMHO one of the best of the Star Trek...
Stunningly beautiful, and next to worthless ;) Eventually I'll be culling general cultures and histories from them (fluff as some call), but not anything...
... <GULP> Crims, you've shattered my illusion with reality...a lot of the LUG and Decipher stuff is "next to worthless", yet STUNNINGLY beautiful... I'm...

My surprise with "Killing Time" is not what was controversial, but rather how they released copies of the "1st edition", then had the author rewrite bits of...
Yeah, that "It's Colonel West..!"-- perhaps the worst throw away EVER in the history of Star Trek. I felt like I watching the 80s movie "Clue"... And that...
I must say I didn't mind VI nearly as much as First Contact. It had some great views of the D-7. I'll have to go back and watch that briefing again. I don't...
Yeah, IIRC Sarek left and the Romulan ambassador STAYED!! ROTFLMAO!! Fed Prez: "So Sarek, what is the position of the Vulcan government as to this plan?" ...

I can cite other aircraft with similarly long service lives. The KC- 135 which entered service in 1954, C-130 which entered service in 1956 and is still in...

For me, it doesn't really matter. The Mirandas are there in DS9. Any number of rationalizations can be made for their inclusion. I only bring it up as an...
Very well said. From what I've gatherd on the proposed new movie is it will be set in the academy years of Kirk and spock, who as nearly everyone knows didnt...
I agree on all points. Paramount has sacrificed any pretext of continuity an the altar of the almighty dollar. Plot, consistancy, fans, logic, and pretty much...
I'm not sure about the mechanics yet, though I did notice a lack of tactical combat. Mostly it's the annoying NG, and later era stuff. I'll give more ...

I played LUG Trek when it first came out. As you could imagine, I was quite skeptical about it. However, it became evident to me that the folks working on it...
