FASA based their Klingons on John Ford's book The Final Reflection, much like how they based their Romulans on Diane Duane's Rhihansu. Roddenberry avoided both...
Ah yes, I remember now. Its been 25 years since I read either. The one thing that is/was problematic about Trek Fiction is that it failed at being canon for a...
No, it wasn't directed at you, I just replied on your post because you had mentioned the old FASA ST:RPG version in your post. Yeah I got out my Klingons...
Just to be clear, it would have been fine had you directed it at me. I was not insulted or anything like that, so we're good (just in case you thought ...
I remember reading it when I was a sophomore in HS. I dont think I have read it since. Which is a shame, because it was a good book. I always wanted to learn...
Sounds like one of my shelves except for the SFB, never really got into that one but I do have the original Prime Directive RPG and both GURPS versions of...
Guilty as charged, working on a couple of newer editions of PD now, a new Modern version, more streamlined and self contained and a Savage Worlds variant. SFB...
... You are lucky you can continue the series from books. Since I live in the Ukraine, I have no more access to books (or money to purchase them) ... In...
... The Final Reflection was a good book. It one of my favorites Star Trek Books. ... Agreed, 100% :) I haven't read a Star Trek novel in 25 years. "The Final...

OK since this won't die let's kick it up a notch. Forget the books on the movies and TV shows are considered canon. Anything else is non-essential fluff...
Wait a minute, Enterprise isn't included in the JJ Abrams movie. In fact if that movie is the new canon, then nothing except that movie is. This may be the...
Nothing has changed about Trek history in the original (prime) universe - well other than Jar Jar Abrams destroyed one of the major races home planet for a...
... So the only canon we have left is the last Star Trek movie and Star Trek Enterprise and since there were no smooth headed Klingons in any of those we can...
... I liked most of Trek except Voyager (even Enterprise wasn't so bad), but loved (and continue to love even with the blasphemic prequels) Star Wars. I think...
Is there a sequel to that last Star Trek movie coming? Even though I am a fan of the previous (except most of DS9), I really enjoyed the new Star Trek movie...
There is one being worked on at this very moment. Rumor has it it is supposedly based on Wrath of Khan. (Way to go there JJ. Whole new universe to play with...
Yeah, but everyone involved with the production claims it's not actually the Khan story. One can hope he's smart enough to leave that story completely alone....
I too have kept quiet about the Star Trek, in deference to those who are likely much more knowledgable (and adamant in belief) about the canon and its...
Actually there is a better reason to explain what happened, starting with the middle of the Jedi script -- George got divorced from a woman who as a well...
Well, the predictable Lucas-bashing aside, I think this completely off-topic discussion has energized the group. That being said, both ST and SW are most...
There was the Star Trek episode "The Omega Glory" that was obviously mixing the PA genre with the space opera of Star Trek, come to think of it you could also...
That being said, both ST and SW are most certainly not PA atmospheres, Actually Star Trek is a PA Universe, canon has it and many episodes and at least one...
