As long as you have one character that speaks klingon, they could read and teach the rest.
What is the likliehood that at least one tricorder or universal translator has a Klingon language plugin?...
V'lor does these, too...banners for ships, and such.
My own campaign (currently on long break...we're playing spycraft) is set in Wrath of Khan Era.
I have a whole page of these pics on my...
Well after one hour nine minutes, this is what I got.
Hopefully, this will suffice until someone offers something better.
Wasn't sure of the rank. Made him a four star.
Best of luck. These...
I can do this. Gimme a few days. This is my stock in trade.
I want to Join TatterD's group. Sounds like gaming [BattleTech, Traveller and FASA Trek] aboards a Navy Warship in the 80's after working hours.
Worrd.
Good times.

I come from the old FASA school, where ops is a dept.
Except in TNG it seems to be sensors with some sciences.
But my series is movie era, and so we use the FASA / TOS Department system.
This is a school inside the academy grounds, but not part of the academy.
An XO of typically LCDR or CDR rank takes this school prior to taking command of vessel on active duty.
It would be...
I handle boarding like this:
Once the engines are disabled, the attacking ship moves close.
At least one shield has to be down.
Boarding teams beam over to engine, bridge, security, and...
I've always though tthat phasers could be aimed, whereas torpedoes, you hit wherever.
So, trying to minimize loss oflife the federation is not going to start banging away with torpedoes, first...
For me, it depends on the needs of the campaign.
If thus guy is slated to command a ship, and is the higest ranked player, then do this:
The NPC captain says look, there's a new command opening...
Just buy some of the CDs. about 11 or 12 bucks.
What does it mean to die?
Nothing. Live now. Worry about later when it happens.
wow nice job, impressive, got to get those.
Just as filmed, makes him more human.
On a godforsaken planet, trying to fight gravity, and blood loss.
Not on his ship, since he's shown ships are expendable.
People aren't and his loss to...
"Otherwise it becomes shared storytelling."
To me, that's the point of the game, not...

That's a character sheet, and numbers and stats.

I'm talking story factors, not in game realism or mechanics.
If the story is called "A Broken Toy Soldier" you'll have that individual sufferring.
If the story is "Cenkali IV got smoked, by...
Except that, dice rolled, looking at the Poor result, generated by Mechanics, you know that it "Should have succeeded, Should have failed." And do what? Fall back on "The Dice say so, and we hate the...
"Bluntly, the drama die actually reduces the amount of drama in the game."
I think that if the referee is relying on dice for drama in an RPG, there's a lack of application of effort to scenario...
I just see it that it's a science fiction setting none of it is real, it's all for the story.
So when Kirk loses a crewman they glow a bit, gone, move on, not all the ER type medical procedures,...
Being a US Navy veteran myself, my Trek campaigns were always more militaristic than Canon. Starfleet is for all intents and purposes, the Federation Navy.
And I have plenty of Marines, especially...
Generally, I do something like that, except it focuses on the individual planets, and I call it an Astrogator's Gazeteer. Each planet gets a paragraph to a page.
After many months away from it, i am actively back at it.
I'll be giving regular reports on progress.
Welcome to the fold, scarecrow.
I think of it as an easier to use, GURPS lite, myself.
All of my old FASA crew much prefer the LUG version, now, since i've introduced it.
