Inspector Spacetime?
12 is what I want to pick as well, just because I feel like Riker and Kirk are some of the more gregarious characters, and would make for the best conversation, but that would be three relatively burly dudes in one another's space for a pretty long time.
I think ultimately I would have to pick 8.
Thank you! These are always fantastic. Please keep them up!
Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm going through season two as I'm able, but with Netflix dropping them all at once, and my other obligations, I can't say I'm going to be especially quick with the posts. Hopefully I can do two or three a week, but I make no promises.
Please explain what it is about my post you think is trolling.
I guess Gen Z didn’t pay as much attention to space because the shuttle program ended before their time?
I love that one of the enduring aspects of human nature is that each generation wants broad strokes paint the ones that follows them as lazy, incurious dolts who will lead to the downfall of civilization. Gen Z is getting the brunt of it now, but it wasn't too long ago that op eds were written blaming Millennials for "killing" everything from golf, to wine, to napkins, to basic courtesy. We can go all the way back to Plato, disparaging the youths of ancient Greece for sagging their togas, and spending all their time looking at tablature as opposed to having real conversations. And, of course, my generation also got its fair share before we all turned into the cranky old men shaking our fists at clouds in between writing those op eds.
Best boss I ever had!
Man, I miss Swear Trek.
I agonized over that choice.
You don't have to play the good guys for the system to work, the same system is used for Dune - Adventures in the Imperium, and that's a setting about as morally grey as it gets. Even with Star Trek Adventures, there is the Klingon Core Rulebook if you want to be a bit more rowdy than your typical Starfleet officers. The Operations Division sourcebook has suggestions for playing as Section 31 as well.
Lack of time is definitely the enemy of table top gaming. I feel very fortunate that I've managed to have an ongoing [mostly] weekly STA game for two and half years now.
Sisko and Shaw in a single comic? Can one story really contain that much animosity towards Picard for what happened at Wolf 359?
Not my OC.
I just finished the "USS Cerritos Crew Handbook" by Chris Farnell, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The book is formatted to be exactly what the title says, a handbook for new crew, specifically lower deckers, joining the Cerritos. It's a new update being written by Boimler with entries from several other members of the crew. Except it's presented as being a shared document with editing notes -- mostly from Mariner and Boimler -- as well as entries written by Mariner who hacked Boimler's password after he did not ask her to contribute.
It's almost certainly the closest thing we've gotten to the "TNG Technical Manual" in this new era of Trek production, even though it's more about the duties and responsibilities of the a junior officer aboard the Cerritos, and the closest thing to technical information in the book is Rutherford's entry on different tools and what the various coloured stripes on the tricorders mean. There is a complete MSD for the Cerritos, but the writing is too small for my old man eyes.
There's a lot of jokes, referencing other Trek productions, as well as LDecks. I think Farnell does a good job capturing the voices of the characters he's portraying here. My only gripe is that Shaxs, my favourite character, was a bit off. Unfortunately, I believe all the art -- and to be clear, the thing is mostly pictures -- is stills from the show or promotional material, with nothing original to the book.
Anyways! It's a fun book that can easily be read through in a single sitting. I'd recommend if it you're looking for something to to enjoy while waiting for season five.
I think you’re good on spoilers since it is the first episode where the shuttlebay three reveal happens.
The crew knows that shuttle bay three is there, they just call it ”the restricted hanger” which makes me question what the difference between a shuttle bay and a hanger is. I don’t think that accounts for the three missing decks. It could be that Zero was simply wrong.
Or it could be that deck numbering aboard Starfleet ships makes no damn sense.
Also, unless you count the Infinity there aren’t any shuttles in shuttle bay three.
