New Series: Star Trek 2199
Hey, everybody.
I've not played any iteration of Star Trek RPG for many years now, and I was thinking about an online game using the ICON system from Last Unicorn Games.
There are a couple of problems, primarily that I don't know how to use Google+, which is (as I understand it) one of the best ways to run a game of this sort.
Anyway, what I was thinking was something like retrofitted NX-class ships, which included the separate engineering section, or maybe the next generation of those ships. Something like an Icarus-class, but with a saucer instead of a sphere.
I also want to use the uniforms worn by the crew of the U.S.S. Kelvin in the Star Trek film reboot. I really like how those uniforms look.
In this Series, the Federation is nearly four decades old, but there are still serious problems between humanity and the Vulcan, Andorians and Tellarites; the UFP is not one big happy family even 40 years on.
I don't want to give too much away, but suffice to say that there will be plenty of Klingon action and Romulan intrigue as well as the return of such foes as the Malurians, the Tholians and the Gorn. I have a list of six Episodes already written out, and have been working on a few others over the past several months, so I think that I may have a good start on what I want to run.
Would there be any interest in such a thing?
