From what I know of the sketches these were preproduction drawings for Enterprise Phase 2. The show never happened and the drawings by Ralph McQuarrie (of Star Wars fame) were rejected. The primary hulllooks like a Star Deatroyer with a saucer and nacelles slapped on. Looks like shit.
I didn’t see this before. Mophidius is a pretty solid PnP RPG publisher/designer. I like their Actung! Cthulu setting.
This is terrible Marcase. If someone slotted the Tribble project on Main and KDF as well you’d be switching captains constantly to keep up with the little monsters and their messes.
Thanks for the update Marcase. Might as well add I might have first D-4x reported in the fleet. I never like my odds dealing with lockboxes but the 700m pricetag the honest way was going to be expensive if I chose the selling route. The other option was to sell slower moving commodities but I didn’t see the price going any lower and the key market (if I had to go the sell route) was very strong. Most other commodities have tanked on account of the Infinity Box.
I decided to invest 60 keys into my shot in the dark. I got some shrapnel, some cool stuff and on key 49 I hit the prize I was chasing. It’s a beautiful ship visually, handles like a dream when my framerates aren’t getting me fragged and hits like a swarm of bees with pointy bricks attached :). It’s as fragile as you would expect but it is nimble and has pilot tricks to protect it from the hurt. The interior is single room but quite beautiful. The colours and angles feel classic but with modern sensibilities; A nice piece of design. I gave woogs a tour already. If anyone wants to have a look please ask; Everyone has always welcomed me to their bridges when I wanted to look at the pretty pixels and I’m happy to return the favor. Qapla’!
Nice! I didn’t need another NX but all my captains get additional cats from what I understand. Very nice. Thanks for the post code. Too bad you can’t summon multiple pets simultaneously then I could have a clowder of cats in game.
Looks nice. I pretty much chose the same parts you did. The only difference I can see is the choice of pylons. While the flared ones do look more dynamic and the classic seem flat and let the ship down a bit I couldn’t get over those red accents and kept them classic.
Best of luck James. Most of military life is a waiting game so don’t let a slow process get you down. Watch that melon of yours on them hatches; People like you don’t get called zipperheads because you were born ugly 😛 .
Can I haz your stuff? 😛
I had to play around a bit and wait out a couple of downloads until the most recent updates to Tribble took properly. AoY is a lot of fun. It feels pretty brief but it manages to establish a relationship to TOS by placing you on the fringe of various canon storylines each mission. It’s a fun little visit but I burned through the posted missions in no time.
There are some bugs and spelling errors in the dialogue and everything is still silent but I the nostalgia was pretty entertaining. It feels very similar in format to the other arcs starter missions but in the end it didn’t really matter. The 1500 series utility cruiser looks pretty hot and I admired it happily as I classic phasered the shit out of old school villains.
I hope they make additional classic missions beyond the first arc; I’d really like to see more stories set in the 23rd century. I’m pissy about not being able to put on my green command tunic on Tribble yet. If this is an oversight I hope they get the tailor working along with some of the other kinks when it goes live. I’m not into buying a “temporal command tunic” if I already own a serviceable classic one.
Does anyone know why they made the daedalus a T2 ship? In spite of the plug they made for it that sgip is a rolling turd. Older than the connie the Daedalus is the Albatross of the Void. Anybody who watched TOS knows Daedalus missions never ended well.
That’s a lot of no sell; Particularly the lack of crossover and the dread of being roped into XBOX live.
From the PC side of the fence I think we are fortunate the servers won’t be merged. Foundry may be neglected but I’d wager it won’t exist on the console side at all. I’d also be really uncomfortable changing my control systems so radically. I experimented with my gamepad at one point and it was awful and uselss. A gamepad is pretty nice for Champions but STO has too many complexities.
Yeah apart from parentage Chris Doohan might not seem like much. It should be considered that he has portrayed Scotty in live action productions before and bears a pretty convincing similarity to his father. Give him a chance. I don’t think he got the job just because he is someone’s idiot kid.
Holy Shit. YESSSSssssss!!!!
Seriously, this sounds pretty cool! TOS adventures and a gaggle of classic stuff including 6 new classic outfits. Maybe not quite but we must be on the edge of a t6 Connie. Back a couple of months we spitballed trying to do some team gameplay with brand new captains. Who wants to rock it out in your great great grandparents final frontier?
New character concepts based on TOS incoming 🙂 .
What are the odds? While you acquired an attractive looking BOff all of mine look like they got dragged through the Ugly Nebula behind a starship doing about warp 12. Just once I would like a BOff (Either gender, any race especially alien) thats arrival doesn’t necessitate a visit to the tailor.
