Report Start
Summary: I went through several missions and got my main character up to level 57. It took a little while but it reminded me how much I like the game. Sometimes you can lose sight of that when you are evaluating missions for authors as much as I do. Speaking of evaluations, below is mine.
This is a good mission overall, even though I found a large number of spelling and grammatical errors in the dialogue. It almost felt like you were rushing the dialogue, which would be why you had a higher number of the errors than in previous missions. The mission is a good combination of map design, battles and well written story dialogue. I would definitely recommend the mission and the entire series. It was enjoyable all the way around and you hardly notice the time spent playing.
Below are some things I noted while playing the mission that I wanted to let you know about. Everything in this write up should be seen as suggestions on ways I felt you could improve certain elements of the mission. They are yours to do with as you see fit.
Mission Description: This is a good description. I noted no spelling or grammatical errors with this description.
Grant Mission Dialogue: The grant dialogue is well written. I noted no spelling or grammatical errors with this dialogue.
Mission Task: This is a good initial task. I noted no spelling errors with this task.
Mission Entry Prompt: This is a good use of the prompt. I noted a couple of items to consider changing:
-Consider changing "[OOC]Arriving at Delta Command you find it in shambels[/OOC]" to read "[OOC]Arriving at Delta Command you find it in shambles[/OOC]"
-Consider changing "Fleet Admiral Nevalis still hans't returned from" to read "Fleet Admiral Nevalis still hasn't returned from".
MAPS:
Delta Quardent: This is a good map design with fun battles and well written story dialogue. I noted a couple of items to consider changing:
-Consider changing the map name "Delta Quardent" to read "Delta Quadrant".
-The Fleet Admiral Nevalis dialogue; consider changing "I don't who this is" to read "I don't know who this is".
-Consider changing "forces at the dyson sphere" to read "forces at the Dyson sphere".
-Consider changing "reports of the undine attack on Sol" to read "reports of the Undine attack on Sol".
-Consider changing "I gathered everyship I could" to read "I gathered every ship I could".
-Consider changing "in the Delta Quardent exepct the undine" to read "in the Delta Quadrant except the Undine".
-Consider changing "toxin to make us attack eachother" to read "toxin to make us attack each other".
-Consider changing "Files, gatway codes, technology" to read "Files, gateway codes, technology".
-Consider changing the response button "Will you be abke to make repairs" to read "Will you be able to make repairs".
-Consider changing the response button "Evasive manuvers" to read "Evasive maneuvers".
-The post Second wave dialogue; consider changing "How intresting" to read "How interesting".

-Consider changing "we might be ale to learn" to read "we might be able to learn".
Asteroid Field: This is good map design with tough but fun battles and well written story dialogue. I noted a couple of items to consider changing:
-The initial hostile engagement is too close together. Consider spreading them out to enable the player to engage them one at a time or reducing the total number to be engaged.
-The map transition dialogue; consider changing "I'm detecting multipel enemy groups and forcefields being brought on line" to read "I'm detecting multiple enemy groups and force fields being brought online".
-Consider changing the response button "Have addaditional teams standing by" to read "Have additional teams standing by".
Station Interior 1: This is a good map design with tough but fun battles and well written story dialogue. I noted a couple of items to consider changing:
-All consoles, doors or other items that require or are optional for the player to use have a button labeled "Interact" which is the default entry. Consider changing them to something appropriate to the interaction. For example, "Access Console" or "Open Door", etc.
-The post Old Foes task dialogue, consider changing the response button "We go to office of course" to read "We go to the office, of course".
-Consider changing the response button "We do what we unfortunatly do best" to read "We do what we, unfortunately, do best".
-The console "Check logs on Dyson sphere" is off the ground and looks odd. Consider placing it on the deck.
-Consider changing the response button "Personel" to read "Personnel".
-Due to the number of spelling and grammatical errors noted in this review, from this point forward I will note the maps containing errors. It is up to you to go through the dialogue to locate and correct these errors. Consider checking all dialogue, response buttons, and interactions throughout this map to ensure there are no spelling or grammatical errors.

-I noted some spelling and grammatical errors on this map. Consider checking all dialogue and response buttons for spelling or grammatical errors.
-All consoles, doors or other items that require or are optional for the player to use have a button labeled "Interact".
