Just wondering, with the whole "Peacekeepers" thing, I'm not sure how useful it will be for my group as it's a Starfleet-based one. Splatbooks for the different professions is a sound idea as far as...

Nemesis.

But that's because my players are on a Federation/Romulan outpost during the Dominion War. The first two seasons I have planned are going to have self-contained conclusions.
The first...

There is a set amount of skills, so we don't use two pages of A4 to keep them.

I don't have to re-read the system rules each session.

There is a lot more roleplaying and less dice chucking. For...

You forgot the Brikar entry that I did, it's on a sheet with a few other races:

I remember when I first posted here and people were pondering whether to make the change from Icon to CODA in the first place.
I mentioned all kinds of advantages about it and then went to say that...

I'd like something like this as well. My group are being really good for helping me put details together for my game. One of them is making a database program for keeping track of the crew and...

My campaign - Star Trek Haven has had the cast described a couple of times by me, but I don't think I've covered the station itself. It's a bit of a stretch but...

Set during the Dominion War with...

Should we let the players have command roles?
Yes. But the game won't be the same as you'd expect.
I would suggest that you run some lower decks games first, if your players/you are unexperienced....

I agree about 'layering' NPC's.
I have one NPC who I rolled up as a test when I first got the book who will be my character when one of the players is a 'guest-writer' for the episode. He's a...

1, Overall, which system is the better and what makes it better?

2, If I decide to go with Coda, which Icon books should I pick up, and which are redundant (since perhaps some books info now are...

I love the feel of the new books and system.
Before, with the LUG system it felt nicely complicated enough to be Star Trek, but felt quite claustrophobic (especially being part of a shipboard...

So far we've only had one ship, a Galaxy class which I let my players choose a name for. I don't think they were in the Star Trek spirit when they chose:
USS-Tyrant
Still, it's blown up now and I'm...

Ah, I think I'll get my other players together secretly and coach them on saying "What a guy!" at the same time, just to see the look on the guy's face.

Last Sunday I ran the funnest Trek game in a long time.
Only a couple of people could make it, luckily the security officers (a human ex-borg and a brikar). The episode had already started, an...

I think I can put it quite easily in one simple name:

Arnold Rimmer.

One of my group has made an engineering ensign that is based heavily on old 'Iron-Balls' Rimmer from Red Dwarf.
For those...

Sorry to continue with the WotC-bashing here, but their support of Europe has been terrible. I signed up for Polyhedron in September last year and recieved one issue. Then much later I heard about...

Me, I'm just pleased that as a retailer I can get it at cost. Otherwise there'd be no way I'd touch these Limited Ed books.
That said, I need a second copy of the Player's Guide as my lot are too...

Ah, man. I've been reading the starship maneuvers and tactics. It's great stuff, like the Spycraft chase rules.
I've also decided to use the CODA rules for my own science fiction usinverse "Tales of...

Hopefully they won't run things in Communicator, it's barely possible to get in England from what I've seen.

Personally, as a fan of any competition the d20 system has, I feel there are a few...

Yep, big ugly error from here too. Odd, because it was working earlier in the week but all I could find was some message board.

That episode with Etana Jol in it didn't give much of anything away...

Just wondering, are there any maps or resources about the Romulan Neutral Zone kicking about. My setting's around there but I have no idea what's in the area (other than romulans and starfleet)....

Well don't let me stop you if that's your thang. It's just there's a time and a place for killer GM's and it's called Hackmaster. Or Paranoia. Or Call of Cthulhu. All of these games easily validate...

They've already seen the mantis-things once. When they went to report to the captain they saw her speaking to them in her office, the mantises (?) saw them and in a blink vanished.

Sounds like...

Okay, here's the deal. I've been GMing a lot of Spycraft & D&D. Normally I have loads of adventure ideas but my group are pressing me to play Star Trek (odd as only one's a Trekkie).
I need a couple...

I order all the RPG stock for a comic shop in England and despite bank holidays, the good companies (eg; White Wolf & Decipher) have decided to throw their stock at the suppliers early so that we'll...
