Hi guys.
I am a pretty good and new player to this game and i have decided to do an episode of TNG (The Next Generation) on the server but i will need help for one of the scenes and i will need one of the Game mods help aswell (To play the role of the borg cube).
I have decide to use The episode named: Best of Both worlds.
I will need players when it comes to the Wolf 359 Fight because as you know 17 ships where destroyed during that fight.
I almost forgot to mention you will need BASIC Phasers and Torpedoes
the First 17 will be guaranteed a place during this video.
I need you to leave:
Ship Name, Registration, Ships Class, Captains Name, how many crew members, and you steam ID: (If you have one) in this format
Name:
Steam ID:
Ship name:
Ship Registration:
Captain Name:
Crew aboard:
Captain Rank:
Ship Requirements: Rear Admiral, Upper Half and below but the equipment can vary.
Cannot have too many Rear admirals though, i can have max 2 rear admirals
3 captains
the rest can be Lieutenant commander and below
As for the gamer mod he will be a lone Borg cube which will Destroy my ship and the 17 others within 2 minutes, you must have the most basic gear for your ships , I will be recording as i go along (Once i have discovered how to minimize my HUD
Please get into contact ASAP so recording can begin.
Afraid I can't sign up for this epic project, but I have some advice for the ships you should allow:
Nebula
Excelsior
Constitution (one wreck is visible in the TNG episode as a constitution hull)
Miranda
Cheyenne
Galaxy (not seen, but one may have been involved in the fight)
Klingon ships might've been involved in the fight but not seen or referenced in the episode. I'd suggest:
B'rel
K'tinga
Vor'cha
Just about every other ship type is outside the TNG timeline and is inappropriate for the re-enactment.

Thank you for your advice.
If only you could be involved
i would like to join in on it, but without 100% a gaurantee that a cryptic GM will join in and be the borg cube, then you kiss any chance of this idea goodbye.
in the aftermath of the battle of wolf 359, there was something that looked like an intrepid class ship in the debris when the ENT-D arrived, it's likely such a thing was a prototype. but as far as the saratoga is concerned, how are you going to turn a torpedo extension module into the two side mounted things on the miranda? what about the Ambassador class? i destinctly remember seeing a neb and ambassador ships doing a manouver and then attacking the cube while the saratoga was being drained of its shields.
besides the ovbious, the powers of each ship and the effects will need to be removed or stripped down, the borg cutting beam cant be red and 3 seperate beams, it must be a single solid greenish-white beam, the the holding beam has a dual purpose and is blue, not green... so on.
I have two possibilites, pick one. I have more credits for alterations on Lokar than on Badger. Also if you contact me using steam, let me know who you are.

wow a community moderator, that's gonna perk things up...What class is you ship Defiant?
also i'm still trying to find a Mod to help by playing the role of the borg cube.
As for the gamer mod he will be a lone Borg cube which will Destroy my ship and the 17 others within 2 minutes, you must have the most basic gear for your ships , I will be recording as i go along (Once i have discovered how to minimize my HUD
...
When are you doing this (sorry if I glazed over the date)?
At the very least I would recommend you familiarize yourself with demorecord if you haven't already. IMO the best tool available to record in-game movies like what you are proposing.
I have no set date yet as i have to get the rest of the pilots and the GEar was a bit OTT you can use anyger just nothing too high in DPS like Tri-cobalt torpedoes or Transphasic (they didn't have en back then)
Also why is rank important? If you're thinking lower ranks so it's easier to destroy the ships, having a high rank character in a low tier ship is pretty much the same as having a character of the apropriate rank for that ship.
I only wish I had time to take part, sadly I don't, but good luck to you.
It was 40 Federation ships that took part in the attack of Wolf 359, not 17. 39 were destroyed. The surviving ship was the USS Endeavour
One of the ships that survived is canon, which is the Cheyenne class U.S.S. Ahwahee NCC 71620 - she was salvaged from the battle.
The USS Ahwahnee (NCC-71620) was a Federation Cheyenne-class starship that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century.
The Ahwahnee, along with 38 other starships, fought the Borg at the Battle of Wolf 359 on stardate 44002. The ship was discovered adrift and decimated by the USS Enterprise-D following the battle. (TNG: "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II")
After being salvaged, in early 2368, the Ahwahnee joined Captain Picard's fleet that blockaded the Klingon-Romulan border during the Klingon Civil War. It was positioned near the lower rear of the tachyon detection grid.
According to the quote above from Memory Alpha - the ship count was 39 not 40, least thats what it appears to be.

Where did we learn it was Endeavor that survived? I don't recall anything about that in the shows or movies.
The third edition of the Star Trek Encyclopedia, on page 135 apparently, according to Memory Alpha http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/USS_Endeavour_(NCC-71805)
The Encyclopedia isn't really considered canon. Though I guess that's a matter of opinion.

I'm still looking for 16 pilots (ship captains)
Thought this would help if you were going for realistic battle of Wolf 359
Sometime in the GMT once i have pilot i will give specifics, i also have to Coax a GM to be the Borg cube
You might convince Farktoid to do it. He's been ingame before as destroyable ships and Borg Drones, it was pretty fun
cool, thanks
I still need 17 pilots ASAP or the event won't work

I have been a bit too lenient on the equipment, you can any equipment just nothing way to high DPS (such a Tri-Cobalt Torpedo).
I've just realized what i said and noticed it won't work well.
@Chase Quinnell you can send me your Steam ID through STO mail or add me through mine
