Here's my latest mission - I'd appreciate reviews and feedback. It's currently in the "review" tab.

Title: The Tholian Tempest
Allegiance: Federation
Level: any
Description: You are ordered to the Dace System in the Kassae Sector of the Beta Quadrant to rescue a transport vessel that has crashed on a Y-class planet. But things take a strange turn when the landing party finds itself inside a Shakespeare play and unable to contact the ship while under attack by Tholians and Gorn.

The Tholian Tempest: A rescue mission on a Y-class world leaves the away team stranded inside a Shakespeare play while under attack by Tholians and Gorn.

    I just played your mission and enjoyed it. I liked the dialogue a lot, it gave the BOFF's character. How did you trigger the attacking tholians? I've been trying to figure out a way to something like in my missions!
    Good one, man.

    Thanks! To make the Tholians attack is just a "reach marker" objective trigger that makes the enemies appear when you get close enough to the place marker.

    Thanks...I never did figure out what reach markers did. I've tried to use them for pop up dialogue, but it never worked for me. (so I always have to use an object trigger like "scan object x" to do things.) I'll try it when the servers are back from maintenance.

    I loved it. I thought it was a great change of pace from regular type missions. The combat was nice. Did not know you could get an arch, I will have to keep it in mind.
    I ran it solo, and the big combat with all the cast of characters did seem to go a little too quickly. So many goodies fighting less baddies. Maybe if I do it with some other people it will scale up to a real good fight.

    5 big ole stars!

    Yeah, I really struggled with balancing that big battle. I kept going back & forth between "too easy" and "nearly impossible" with little middle ground, so I decided to err on the side of "too easy".

    Thanks for playing!
