  • Hi and thanks for this thread. I did have a spotlight mission way back when called "Checks and Balances" about the Deferi and the Borg. I think it got broken at some point - I believe that it was used to test something on Tribble, which was an honor, but after that I could never access it and could never fix any problems.…

  • Probably my favorite is my main's Pathfinder: USS Laika
  • This is terrible. The fact that I do not have developers in the room where I'm playing making these sounds in person is, well, what else can I say? A total slap in the face. Someone should be saying "zoooooom" for the entire duration of my slipstream IN MY EAR. And I should be able to send one of you to get me coffee…
  • Quite right, I wasn't thinking. I guess I let my TOS/TAS nostalgia get the better of me.​​
  • Since there is a mechanic for tripeds (Undine) I'm wondering if Edosians (not Efrosians) are possible.​​
  • Just a quick update. I was able to beat an ice spider as a snowman (again with the Frosted Boots). The headstart you can get at the beginning was crucial. We were also pretty neck-and-neck (or, I'm not sure, since snowmen and spiders don't have necks) up until the last couple of turns, when I was able to pull ahead. Again,…
  • Hi all. This is a great thread and I wanted to contribute something too it. For the last several years, I've always used the method of running and drifting through corners. I've now got a pretty good idea where I can cut without getting disqualified. I never jump or roll. But I recently tried something that might be…
  • There is a prompt, like the Horga'hn hunt, where you can pick up the sand castle building mission remotely. Yu can also visit the Arenologist near the Promenade. You can get the mission from him. You also turn it into him when you're done. One note: To get the bonus rewards, there is no reason to build a castle during the…
  • This is an interesting topic, and one I happen to have been thinking about lately. It's a pity that it has to become a contest over who dislikes or likes the game most, but I suppose that's the nature of the forums these days. One of the things I've been wondering is whether the concept of a "grind" is even that useful. It…
  • I'd like to add my thanks here and also my growing intolerance and disgust with people who just want to complain. This game isn't perfect and there are appropriate places to vent/provide useful feedback. But please, allow some appreciation to stand without blemish. I've been noticing a growing discontent on the forums with…
  • Hi all. I've been away from the Foundry and the game for a long while, but something about this challenge caught my eye. I managed to get an entry in--it's really rough around the edges, but hope you all enjoy. I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone else put together. Best.
  • Title: Errand Undone @Handle: mygod_itsfullofstars Faction: Starfleet Level: 21+ Summary: A routine patrol mission becomes a journey to a strange new world where nothing seems right and a trip back in time to one of the pivotal moments in Federation History.
  • I've actually used character background story to make decisions about all my builds, as well as character skills and traits. I've invested a bit of time and effort into fleshing out the backstories of BOFFs too, so I tend to assign their abilities depending on who the are. That's probably a little extreme for most people's…
  • Thanks @marcusdkane, @cmdrscarlet, @sander233. It's only after I wrote this piece that I went back and counted the number of times Nalah thought about killing someone (not counting the concussion). I was going for something like post-trauma, but that might have been a little over the top. Still, glad you liked it. I…
  • "Nalah, give up. Plants hate you." A loud snap punctuated Ael's sentence. Nalah stood up straight, half the handle of a spade in her hands, and sighed. "And it's not the only thing." Nalah narrowed her eyes at Ael and threw the broken handle at his head. He dodged it. He was good at dodging things. She sighed again. She…
  • @sander233: Thanks for the comment. That's just what I was aiming for. This particular piece was a challenge--I haven't contributed to these LC's for a while largely because I didn't have the time. But I saw the topic of this one, and had an image of the empty room, and decided I'd go for it. This piece isn't as polished I…
  • Well, I'm impressed by your choice for the last round, so I suppose I owe you a little something out of the ordinary. It was stardate 87001.4. The Lewis & Clark had been ordered by the Old Man to pick up a "special delivery" from a research station in the Xarantine Sector, in the R735 Gamma system. Now, I think I've…
  • First off, I wanted to apologize about not being able to get through "Checks and Balances." I've been trying to e-mail everyone who leaves a review that mentions the problem with the planet individually, but that can get time consuming and I sometimes get a little behind. The problem is that there's an "interact with…
  • Hi all. I've been following this discussion and really enjoying it. Since the only group left looks to be the Ferengi, I'd be willing to take them. I haven't been able to be ingame for a while because of work commitments, but I think this sort of structured story is just the thing I need to get back into the Foundry. Since…
  • Great to see the attention to the spotlight missions increasing, and looking forward to seeing who's next. I did want to warn anyone who might want to play "Checks and Balances" that the first space map is broken (filed a bug report, #1,451,419). The player is supposed to be able to interact with a planet, but the…
  • Given that they were relocating (presumably) Native American woodland groups from Earth, I'd imagine some subset of them must have been active relatively recently. Also, even if they were asleep, I'd imagine their devices were probably gathering information constantly. Or at least, I would have made them do so if I were…
  • I've played Contamination and really enjoyed it, but I haven't tried this mission. I'll correct that omission. I look forward to the absence of "continue" on the Klingon side. Congratulations!
  • This was a fantastic challenge. I was really impressed with all the entries. That said, I think Relics was the right choice to win. Congratulations, KF!
  • Just wanted to express my thanks for this honor (and thanks especially to Kirkfat for his continued enthusiasm--it means something when a real master of the foundry likes your stuff). Also wanted to say thanks for the ability to contribute to this game, and to Trek.
  • We are a mature relaxed fleet where families and real lives come first and the game comes second. You won't hear any complaining if you have to be at work early tomorrow morning or need to get offline to help a spouse or change a diaper. We don't have labyrinthine rules or regulations. We're just a group of people with a…
