Thanks for that, PENT and STO probably would have confused me as well, I've seen/translated the others before.

I just have one of those minds that holds onto the little details about everything. If you name a season, I can spit of episode names for pretty much any ST series (besides TOS and TAS) and give you basic details of what happened in that episode.

Sadly, this power doesn't seem to translate to real-life skill. I kill at Trivial Pursuit though.

I started Playing Dungeons and Dragons in the fall of 1979. I got the Star Trek RPG from Fasa as a Christmas present in 1984. So ive been playing role playing games forever and Star Trek almost forever. And my biggest advantage is that I was in the US Navy for 11 years. As much as things are different they are remarkably the same.
By the way at the moment you have a huge advantage. Your playing a race you created. And your doing a very good job. Azmay, to me, is coming across as an explorer, tempered by Es innocence, but pushed forward by Es curiosity. The only thing you need is practice, practice, practice.

Liam I thought I might be one of the older ones, but in 1979 I was in diapers. LOL. I love trek, would love to be a writer some day, and love to talk to people that like some of the things I do. This is why I rp.

I'm just going to point out that I am not one of the older ones. In fact your dashing, adventurous and amazing Captain is only 25 years old. I wasn't even alive when Mr. McTavish started playing D&D. I'm not sure how I feel about that...

feel? Feel happy happy joy joy. We have a good thing going here, lets not get jittery because we have an old man on board lol I admittedly know a lot less than Captain Brennon and tons less then Calodan. You would be surprised how many hours I worked on the first meeting between Our pet Kilngon and McTavish. But im practiced in meshing into a group and feeding off the situation.

I think I might be one of the youngins aboard the ship.

I am the ripe old age of 21...thought most days I feel 50. Bum knee and a bad back means I creak and moan like a man twice my age. On the positive side, I can always tell when it is going to rain.

I hurt my food several years ago at work, small fractures of the bone that hardly count as a break. Point is I know how you feel about the rain... not fun. In fact it hurts right now. Whenever I'm not moving too much for very long it gets really sore.

Incidentally, in 1983 when I joined the Air Force, I had been playing Dungeons and Dragons since 1975, so long I had a land called the Torloc Empire, even before they even introduced a Gods mode. I had all ready played Champions for a year and Top Secret for at least that long. In June I enjoyed my 45th birthday.

I got Starfleet Battles as a gift in 1980 as a way to get into some other RPG. In 1982 I was given Champions and our D & D team switched off for a couple years to build the Challengers. My cousin Mike, friends Kevin and Tim built fleets for Starfleet battles, though and in 1984 I took the game to Wyoming to play with my younger brother, who was collecting Transformers (still has the all metal versions of most of them). During those years I built a collection of Star Trek that I thought would last forever. Had all the movies, all the ships, many Franklin Mint pieces, blueprints, etc. Lost most after a divorce in 2000, and now this sim has become a way to bring all that energy back to life.
