"Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them." -Thomas Marrone
The first three parts of Star Trek: Allegiance are out and have gotten good reviews, especially 3, so I'd like to see how your playthrough goes with them.
Fair warning, one of the maps in part 3 is bugged, nothing i can do about it till cryptic fixes it.
Play Star Trek: Allegiance - my first series in the Foundry
I would really appreciate a bit more feedback to get my story up and running.....
Where one man has gone before
ID ST - HLRD5ZMHM
Level 41+
Starfleet have been monitoring a Borg Fleet in the Chulan system for two weeks, the fleet is large and if put on the offensive would cause a very serious situation.
Admiral Shekaris ( Fleet Admiral) > Why do they just sit there? - waitng, doing nothing. I should act! and yet I know I cannot, not until their motive is clear.
I have lost to many good captains and crew to this machine called the Borg, will they never stop. I must wait.
Shekaris

Level 41+
What was just a theory has now become a fact. The Borg have abducted Admiral Shekaris and its down to the Vulcans to put the pieces together to find out how.
The Cube is badly damaged and on the run.
Your mission - you must get him back.
Shekaris is the concluding mission to the story. If you only have time for one could you please consider Where one man has gone before.
Will play them in the order posted in this thread, and I should probably have mentioned that I only have a FED character (for now). So I won't be able to play it right now if it's restricted to KDF, sorry.
Description: Your ship has been assigned to a patrol sweep of the Tau6 Eridani system in the Pi Canis Sector Block. This system is under non-interference directive protection, but is close to the fluid Pi Canis front lines in the ongoing Klingon War. While you are doing your patrol duties, on the protected planet a native astronomer observes your craft which puts into motion a series of events which you observe as a ?fly on the wall? in between episodes of your ship pursuing those who would cause trouble for the protected planet.
Author?s Note: This story is designed to unfold as if you were part of a television episode, your actions are interactive for the Star Fleet portion?for the native species interludes you are reading dialog and following the planet-side storyline, however if you wish to skip this you can simply click ?End Dialog? and move on to the next Star Fleet scene.
Description: Your ship has been temporarily assigned to a the 95th Tactical Group, part of the Nausicaan home world blockade forces and considered the ?tip of the spear? of the blockade. There is an upcoming ?surge? to sweep the local Nausicaan factions from the region around their home system so as to cut down on the infiltration of Klingon Empire forces that have been penetrating deep into Federation space via the Nausicaan ?outlaw trail? of secret back routes and transwarp gates.
Description: A pathetic Gorn scientist-chef and wild-eyed old warrior make a routine trip to the frontlines a dangerous task for you and your crew.
Speak to Artok in the Klingon Academy bunker to begin.
Author?s Note: Bring your blade and fight like a real Klingon.
If you want, you could play my Foundry Challenge #6 mission, "The Second Light".

Oddly there are more foundry authors than foundry players.
Lol
Well perhaps we need to get more people to realize how much fun they can be to play.
I suspect that a few of you was expecting some kind of review from me with this, but I figured I'd just play through them and get videos up for others to find and perhaps raise interest.
Maybe I can start "reviewing" some later on, if/when I feel confident enough..
Hi guys. Info I need: mission name, author, level/requirements, description and link to mission thread if you have one.
Idrona:
I'd be thrilled if you did a "let's play" of my mission "The Tangled Webs We Weave." It's my first Foundry mission and got second place in Foundry Challenge 6. Here is the mission information:
Mission Name: The Tangled Webs We Weave
Author: @ashtaku
Level Requirement: None
Description: The Tholians have attacked Starbase 24! You must join the counterattack, then investigate an unexpected interloper.

Will do. Was planning on doing a whole bunch before, but it ended in a headache, so right now I'm uploading the 2 I managed to do before I had to log. Hopefully I'll be back at it bit later though.
EDIT: I will do all missions you guys post here (unless KDF), and I appreciate if you could provide the info too. Later on I will make a KDF character, but that's another story for now.
Played and YouTubed a few more, I had fun playing these too.
Constructive Criticism:
Sometimes it wasn't all that clear where I should go next, could be just me being easily confused.
And I'm one of those annoying people with the ability to spot OTHERS spelling errors directly (I keep doing them myself though), and I saw a few of them in your missions Gingie.
Great missions though and the deathmatch was really fun and intense!

And of course looking forward to seeing what you develop.
I loved that one. It also helped that the "no music in Foundry missions" bug was active at the time, which created an awesome forboding atmosphere.

RogueEnterprise got 50,000 reviews from somewhere. :P
It could very well be multiple accounts. :cool:
But ok, more foundry authors than regular foundry players.
