tlhIngan maH!

I met Hillbane shortly after joining Stonewall and beginning my KDF character. He brought me into the House of Nagh reD and was always available for help. He will be greatly missed.

The gas is explained in the game lore/show lore.

So we have to play the game to get a better understanding of the show?

I think not.

Yeah, that's something I've been afraid of ever since they announced the show and game, is that you would have to participate in both to understand. I barely have time to watch the show, so I certainly don't have time to play some tie in game.

Like I mentioned in the last post, that is only an issue for setting it as an in game official fleet uniform, which isn't what I'm suggesting.

Also, it doesn't matter if you're not not unaligned, you still get to wear your standard Republic uniform.

Basically i am suggesting that we agree on a fleet color scheme for the new jackets

Here be mechanics spoilers. You have been warned.

Regardless if it can be set officially in game as a "fleet" uniform, doesn't mean that we can't post template files with color codes and costume settings that we've voted on as the winners. I've played through tribble as both fed aligned and kdf aligned. If you don't pick an alliance, you can't do more than the first 6 missions over and over.

This works with costume unlocks on tribble as such. Minor Spoilers:

You start off as a civilian and have only civilian clothes. After the tutorial you join the romulan republic, and get the republic uniform options. Later on when you choose an allegiance you get a new set of costume options depending on what faction you ally with. Please note, you're still a romulan republic officer, you just get a federationy or a klingony version of your romulan uniform you can choose to wear if you want. You can also keep your generic republic uniform (which I choose to do anyways, as I don't really like either versions of the allied uniforms)

Another minor spoiler, you also get a Tal Shiar uniform at one point, which can be color customized. I'm all about color coordination, so I'd love us to vote on an establish official fleet colors for these uniforms.

I'm sure there will be other options that we haven't seen yet as well, and any of them which we can get through free gameplay I think we should be able to vote on an official fleet variant for those who have progressed far enough to unlock. It would make RP a lot more fun.

sorry for the delay! I must have overlooked this. :)

I posted my global account ID on the How to get invited thread in the forums about 4-5 days ago, and was wondering if I could get an invite? :cheer:

I'm also in shock....

Not sure what to say?

Um... Hillbane?

I got to know him quite well as he offered to be one of the original Fleet Captains for Stonewall Fleet.

He was brilliant at understanding the fleet and did all he could to make us all feel like a family.

We will all miss him!

For male characters, don't select the skirt options. They will not load correctily and will give you completely incorrect fleet uniform.

Thanks Nick, but I'll wear a skirt if I want to! Actually, I was never able to wear one correctly anyway, lol.

Well done DoctorDisaster, I really like the TNG era and love the new uniform.

Wow, I'm just kind of in shock.

I am grateful to have known him, if only a little bit.

They need to explain more about the aliens that came to earth in the first place, and then why earth now has all the other races there.

Cj

Thats what bugged me, I wanted to know why they came, how they terraformed the earth etc etc.. other than just a voice over.
Maybe they will explain it as the series moves on... but sadly after the 3rd episode.. I was bored, I wasnt gripped.

I do like the title music though!! B)

they came because a rogue star was on an intercept course with their solar system if I recall

The bridge lit up and the smoke was sucked out of the holodeck. An exit appeared and there stood the professor. He entered the holodeck, "end program" and looked around. Aden and I stood next to each other eyeing the professor. "This is the first time anyone who has taken this test committed a murder suicide." He stated. "You pass. Now I believe you have to meet your parents." I looked at Aden grabbed his hand and shook it. "Lets get together when I get back I owe you dinner for allowing me to blow you up". I cried running out the door.

I ran to the Transporter room and met my parents. Of course they already knew I passed. We stepped onto the transporter and beamed up to their ship. I found out that this is where the joining would take place as they wanted to be here for my graduation and orders. I was nervous and my mother knew it. My communicator buzzed as a signal from the ground was patched through. It was Aden.

"Why did you run out so fast?" He asked
"I am sorry it is my joining today. I am quite scared and nervous. If it fails I may never see anyone again. I don't know what to expect. Perhaps you would come up to our ship and keep me company until the procedure takes place? I asked innocently.

"I am a medical graduate" he stated.

"But have you ever performed a Trill joining before?" I asked with a laugh. "I'll meet you in the transporter room, I hope your ready to beam up." I headed to the transporter room and took over the console. Tapping my badge "Energizing" I activated the transport and brought him up to the ship.

Aden and I had known each other through classes. We had become friends over a short period of time. I was attracted to him on several levels and found it comforting that at least someone I knew a little bit would on hand during the procedure. With a flash of yellow sparkly light he was there on the pad in mid sentence. "I hope you had a safe trip" I said smiling at him. I grabbed his arm and pulled him out of the room and down the hall towards my quarters. "You can bunk with me until I am recovered. I will introduce you to everyone at dinner in 3 hours."

We entered my quarters the smell of lavender filled the room. I loved the fragrance and so tended to over use it. I stepped up to the replicator and requested a Saurian Brandy and an Irish Coffee. "What will you have Aden? I asked innocently.

"The same" he said. He liked the combination I had introduced him to several weeks before. The warm Irish coffee with the kick of the Saurian Brandy made for a wonderful warming feeling.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Alien Nation as an obvious source.

Gratsies, Dara. Truly was a lovely combination. Pleased to put it on Sej and Yerka today.

It's mildly consoling that if Siraan and I hadn't split the vote, we'd'a tied. ;)

You know, since Romulans don't have their own fleets, it's kind of an open question how that's going to work. I believe unaligned romulans won't be able to join fleets, so a "neutral" uniform won't be necessary. Then again, since items you unlock can't be included in a fleet uniform and romulans have to unlock faction-specific costume options by picking a side, there's a chance you can't include faction-specific romulan costume pieces in fleet uniforms at all. Of course, if the uniforms can include those options, the fact that they'll be in separate fleets would mean that different uniforms for KDF and Starfleet-aligned romulans would be an appealing and easy choice.

Thanks, everyone! I'm FLOORED that I got the top spot with so many great options in the running!
