PPLLLEEAAASSEEEE cryptic allot of us want missions that force all three to work together. I want my Science/Engineer’s to be wanted I feel like i have acne and am in high school again sometimes 😉
YES I’m so happy that the idea of getting all three professions forced to working together hell ENG/SCI took alot of work why wouldn’t cryptic want their time spent used
If I could join the DEV team for just one idea it would be to add a medical / operations / security profession to pick ontop of the TAC/ENG/SCI this is the only RPG with only 3 professions to pick from and ontop of that 2 of them sux for alot of missions, also the trait system is great now but it still means nothing to 99% of the guys that plays space they were not force to pick any ground & again enforcing ground play to be bypassed when just a little bit of work with a steady pace would make ground amazing its almost good now.

to paraphrase Col. Jack O’Neill, “JJ, its not that you lied to me again, BUT IT’S THAT YOU LIED TO ME… AGAIN!”
I hate what JJ is doing to Trek. I get the marketing, but there are tactful ways but it feels that he thinks that all Trek fans are stupid.
As for Voyager and STO, I disagree. Just because we made friends doesn’t mean its all good now. Voyager been away for a long time, also had no way of backing up the friendship in the long run. It was just one ship that visited and went away….

Just an interesting tidbit… J. G. Hertzler was suppose to be the new bad guy in Star Trek Renegades, but he ended up not being able to do the role because of 2 reasons. The first is because he has a teaching obligation which he couldn’t get out of… but the second is because he’s running for town council. I found that funny … You *have* to vote for a Klingon if you live in that city and are a Star Trek fan =P
Also, as an FYI, filming has wrapped up on Star Trek Renegades… so now it’s just time for post production!
Last, I love the new ship. It’s the second ship I’ve ever purchased (MVAE being the first).
