artsmythe Posted June 2, 2023 Clone Share Posted June 2, 2023 @TiffanyKorta, since you had closed the game from the public, I was having difficulty locating your forums. I rather hope that I will get an invitation to join. As to the matter of the type of ship, I was hoping for a heavy cruiser like the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701). Maybe the USS Lexington (NCC-1709) or the USS Hood (NCC-1703)? My reasoning is that a Constitution-class ship serves a multi-functional role for Starfleet. (Of course, I'm rather sentimental about the Constitution-class, anyway, simply because that's what the original Enterprise was.) However, whatever you come up with is certainly acceptable to me.

I know what you mean... I actually had to comb through my browser history to find the page I needed. And good luck on getting in! To all of us! As for the ship... I wouldn't mind a Heavy Cruiser, Like the Constitution class, or some other similarly multi-function ship. That said, a Medium or Light Cruiser meant more for long term exploration could also be fun; sort of a ToS analogue to the Intrepid-class in the TNG era. A Heavy-Medium Escort or Destroyer might also be interesting, especially if we wanted to play-up more the era's relationship with the Klingon Empire... All in all, I'd say it mostly depends on what we want the game to be like. If we wanted to emphasize the war/cold war w/ the Klingons and/or hunting pirates, then I'd an Escort or Destroyer would be best. If we want it to more be about exploring the final frontier, far out on the edge of the federation and ignoring the period's major conflict as much as possible, then I'd say go Medium or Light, Long-range, Cruiser. If we want a nice mix of the two, then a flexible Heavy Cruiser might be best. Granted, now that I think about it, there's also a 4th option that could be fun... If we forgo a conventional ship, we could instead try to play up the operation, defense, and maintenance of an important Space Station; our version of Deep Space 9 or K-7. I think there are guidelines for doing just that, but I've no idea where they'd be. I guess you could say I'd be up for anything.

If people have any ideas about the type of ship they want feel free to contribute, if not I'll pick out something suitable and get the first mission up in a few days. @Gris, I think @TiffanyKorta is still working on the particulars for the game. We’re also waiting for one or two others to join up. I’m sure that as soon as possible, things will be starting up soon, so be ready to beam up.

Gris Posted June 6, 2023 Clone Share Posted June 6, 2023 Good thing I got the doctor’s role. I couldn’t tell a cruiser from a destroyer if my life depended on it. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artsmythe Posted June 6, 2023 Clone Share Posted June 6, 2023 I, for one, am glad we have a "doctor" in the group, @Gris. 😊 Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artsmythe Posted June 6, 2023 Clone Share Posted June 6, 2023 Oh, I'm sorry. I used the quotation marks because only the Vulcan character, T'Ral, is a medical doctor. I have no idea if @Gris is a doctor, too. As for Lt. L'arra, Lt. Sandira Vashenka, and Cmdr. Bass Th'ichalloq, I think we have the makings of a rather well-balanced Landing Party. I can't wait for our first mission together. 😁 Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gris Posted June 6, 2023 Clone Share Posted June 6, 2023 (edited) Don’t worry. I am not going to mistake a preganglionic fiber for a postganglionic nerve. 😀 Edited June 6, 2023 by Gris (see edit history) Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
