What names have you given your series?

I'm interested. Share with Uruz. ;)

(First, a rant: I don't run series, I don't have episodes, and I'm not a Narrator. I'm a Game Master or GM, and I run campaigns and game sessions.)

My main campaign is based on the TNG TV episode Relics, and is set in the Dyson Sphere from that show, hence the campaign is called Star Trek: Relic. Other campaigns I have run have generally been ship-based, and named after the ship the characters serve on - Excalibur, Challenger, nomghar (a Klingon campaign which never got off the ground) and Lucas (a rogue campaign).

Generally, it would seem that most people name their games after the ship or station, although a few choose a thematic or a place-based name.

I'm dead tired so off the top of my head:

Star Trek: Gallant (TNG, Defiant-class escort USS Gallant)
Star Trek: Endeavor (TOS Movie, Constitution-class)
Star Trek: Final Frontier (sequal to Gallant, QSD USS Dauntless)

Have some ideas for a ENT game if I ever run it.

I name the episodes as well. Mostly to annoy Owen. ;)

Our game is based upon our local fan club, USS Jeannette Maddox. Like many Greek fraternities who select mythological gods or goddesses as "patrons" (usually Greek or Roman), our patron is Artemis, goddess of nature and the hunt. This is appropriate as the fictional starship USS Maddox is a scout vessel and the real Jeannette Maddox (for whom the club is named) is a veterinarian.

Therefore, the name of our RPG based on the USS Maddox is:

Star Trek: Artemis Rising

Star Trek: Lexington
Star Trek: Farscape

And the current one...

Ultimate Star Trek.

Like Don, I too name my eps :)

Hey, Owen...

I too have a ST:Excalibur! And its based on a similar premise to your one. Great minds, and all that! :)

I always liked the mythical names for ships. My Previous campaign was ST: Artemis (TNG Era Galaxy Class)...there's another parallel!

I always wanted to run ST: Dad's Army (apologies to the Non-Brits and other aliens on the boards if you dont know what Dad's Army was)

Quick explaination: WWII sit-com with the protagonists being old men in the Home Guard in 1940s Britain. Several are veterans of WWI.

A quick run down is here:

http://www.phill.co.uk/comedy/dadsarmy/

Captain Mainwaring: "Report, Jones!"
Security Chief Jones: "Its those Klingons. Fire torpedoes? They don't like it up 'em"
Engineer Fraser: "Hit on the port nacelle. We're doooomed!"
First Officer Wilson: "Sir, is all this nonsense really that wise, it's just that...."
Mainwaring: "This is our chance, men.....lets show the hun, errrr....Klingons what we are made of"
Ensign Pike: "Uncle Arthur, Uncle Arthur! Can I beam across?"
Mainwaring: "Stupid boy, Pike"


Cheers

Star Trek: Midway (TNG/DS9, Defiant-class escort USS Midway)
Star Trek: Balckthorne (sequal to Midway, Dominion War era, Intrepid-class)
Star Trek: Centennial ("Lost Era" series, Constellarion-class USS Valkyrie)

And, for the record, Don & Aslan aren't the only ones who name their episodes. Although, in my case, annoying Owen was the furthest thing from my mind. ;)

Mine is called...

Star Trek: The Red Shirt missions.

It's because, for simplicity's sake, I started all my players out as Red Shirts. Along with their friend....

Ensign Kenny. Who can't talk...

Star Trek: the High Frontier, named for the fact that it is set in the furthest part of the Z-axis of Federation space, near the so-called Kellinan Reach.

And yes, I name every episode. All 67 thus far, and about 23 'in the wings'.

I'd name the other campaign ideas I've had, but I think Uruz still has the whole list, with notes. ;)

Hey, chum. Nice to see yer still kickin'.

A few I've run in the past:

Star Trek: The Athena Chronicles (USS Athena, Galaxy-class)
Star Trek: Frontier (USS Ranger, Intrepid-class)
Star Trek: Final Frontier (don't remember; ship-based exploration)
Star Trek: Odyssey (USS Odyssey, Sovereign-class, exploration)
Star Trek: Outpost Euridia (base on a planet show)

And yes, all my episodes are titled. I figure the game is based on a TV show, so might as well get some of the basic conventions in there. :)

Star Trek: Farflight (set in the Delta Quadrant).

But thats it. For once I agree with Owen ;).

I'm a GM. Or referee at least. I'm not a narrator. I run adventures and campaigns. Not episodes and series.

To-MAY-to ? Or To-MAH-to ?

Eh! let's call the whole thing off. . . .

The one I named was called Star Trek: The Rush Logs, named for the main character, Capt. Anthony Rush.

Beyond that, I never really named the FASA games....and I've yet to be able to run any Coda games to name them. :)

Our campaign is named 'Star Trek: Crossroads', as it was intended as a communion between various powers after the Dominion War, on a Starfleet starbase.

But this was, maybe, subliminal marketing at its best. At the same time, the Britney Spears movie, equally titled, was playing at the Buenos Aires theaters. That alone deserved several jokes from my players for weeks... :D

My series is called Strar Trek: Stargazer

The crew are on newly Sovereign.

I break down my series into Mini-Series.

The First Mini-Series is called Genesis.

A group of rouge Dominion steal the Genesis Files and us it as a weapon.

Star Trek: Frontier set on UES Frontier NX-02 (Enterprise NX-01 expolded one minute after leaving spacedock).

Trek series names:

Star Trek: Rapier (Starfleet-type game named after the PC's Sabre-class ship)
DS9: Turuffu (Rogues-type game named after a sector near Bajor-Cardassia)
Star Trek: Tridius (Original series game named after a sector in the "triangle")

All the above were played using the LUG rules.

My next (Decipher Trek) game is called Exeunt Penumbrae and will be set "post Dominion War", with the Dominion having won the war and occupying most of the Alpha Quadrant. Although the war isn't really over yet ... ;)

None of my old FASA campaigns had titles, per se, I didn't doing that until ICON came along. However, I do consider my current games as sequels to those early FASA games I ran and played. It's all one big continuous universe.

Star Trek: Intrepid. A post-Dominion War campaign, which is currently being turned into an amateur film.

Star Trek: Triangle. A campaign set shortly before The Motion Picture, set in the FASA Triangle setting. The game runs on several fronts, with both a Starfleet side, set aboard the USS Lexington, and a civilian campaign, originally set aboard the transport ship Helios. It's worth noting the Helios crew have gone through about 3 ships now, running foul of an Orion crime lord, the Imperial Klingon States, and the Federation.

Which reminds me, I really must write up their misadventures. :)

Star Trek: Epsilon

Follows a task force assigned to patrol near Cardassian space (timeframe is after the Dominion War but before Star Trek:Nemesis)

The first.

All my campaigns were titled usually after the ship being served on even back in the FASA days. I usually titled the adventures too.

But I am certainly a GM. *grin*

I have not run anything recent but my old group will be here for the Stampede so I am sure that I will be running something for them.

I never really named my FASA campaigns. They started out serving aboard standard Starfleet ships before acquiring their ship in a wargames scenario. They ran several adventures in The Triangle (some from The Triangle Campaign, some from me but set in The Triangle).

My current game is Star Trek: Casey Jones -- Post-Dominion War era, set in the region of space called The Strand, just outside Federation space. The Casey Jones is a Glalaxy-class testbed ship pushed into service because Starfleet is short of ships and resources after the war.

I have run several games, most didn't have official names just the names I thought of them as. They were all run in GURPS and none of them were starfleet.
My current game is in the CODA system and it does have a name. It seems that Capt. Daniel Hunter and I think alike. Star Trek: Triangle is a HIGHLY modified and customized version of FASA's Triangle where my players are reasonably kindhearted rogues. At least as kindhearted as people get on Tortuga. For those familiar with R. Talsorians Cyberpunk: 2020, think Cyberpunk:2378. It's fun.:D

Star Trek: Raiders of Cordian

Set during the TNG-DS9 Era centered on the Adventures of the Orion Free Trader Lady Luck, a FASA Wanderer Class Blockade Runner (just have to love them ;) )

A bit of Pirate/ Smuggler/ Merchant and exploration setting. Usually playing on fridge worlds, or in unexplored space. We used a simple house made rules with dice and used to play over IRC, though it died down do to lack of time.

not imaginative but what the hey

Star Trek: Yorktown----Galaxy Class USS Yorktown- 2372

Star Trek: Hornet------Hornet class Strike Carrier USS Hornet Movie Era

& the game i'm in that Maltese Falcon is running

Star Trek: The Casey Jones Adventures------Galaxy Class Test Bed ship USS Casey Jones--Post Dominion War

Star Trek :The New Frontiers .Started out as a TOS game,moved to TOS movies,Then to TNG/DS9/Voyager time period(2374 currently). Ship names in porgression:El Dorado,Defiant 2, Einstein, K'Hotan,Sol, Lydia,Roosevelt,Lagrange,S.S. DownUnder (Merchant Game),Potemkin,DS:18.).Never actually named each game just put under ST:TNF title. A couple friends ran their Trek games under the TNF name (Galacier, Gorobchev, Strider, Fall Den). Used FASA rules for all.
We had characters carry over into the next game (as era permitted,of course).
I've got a CODA game I want to run;If I can convince my players to try a differant system than FASA.Setting for it is 2248 aboard an Antaries-Class Scout.I got the 1st "season" planned out,& half the "episodes" ready.just got to convince them to give CODA a try.

Ours is called "Challenger" but due to certain pressures we changed ours to "Star Trek:Challenger" :D

Each campaign is a Series.
Each Session is an Episode or Movie or Pilot.
Every 13th Episode is a Season Finale.
Every 14th Episode is a Season Premiere.
