    I apologise for the sign-up problems. Which should be sorted out now!

    Mail me if it still doesn't work!

    I assume you are referring to the picture on the right where the site talks about the Phase II ships being used in Wolf 359 and "Unification" shots.

    First, the text seems to imply that the shot in question is from "Unification." I could be wrong, but that doesn't look like Wolf 359 to me. Since I plan to watch BOBW again before we run this battle, I'll make time to watch "Unification" also and see what I can make out.

    Second, given the size and resolution of the picture, I don't think it's possible to definitively identify anything in it, except the Enterprise-D. I do not necessarily agree with your interpretation that the object to the left is part of a Klingon vessel.

    Third, there are no references anywhere to any Klingon ships actually beingat Wolf 359. Sending ships and actually having those ships make it on time are two different things. It's repeatedly stated that 40 Fed ships fought the Borg at Wolf 359, and 39 were destroyed. There is never any mention of the presence of any other species, or any additional ships. IMO it simply defies belief that the loss of Klingon or Romulan ships wouldn't merit a mention somewhere -- particularly given the writers' and fans' peculiar obsession with the Klingons.

    In short, I don't consider that picture any sort of "canon" evidence of Klingon presence at Wolf 359. I will, however, happily accept being proved wrong, if someone can locate reliable evidence on the issue.

    I believe there are still a couple slots -- we want to leave enough "overage" of unclaimed ships that players who lose their ships early on can fall back to another ship and not simply have to bow out of the game.

    Check with Dan, and if necessary sign up for the mailing list he set up. That's what we're going to use to run the game.

    I am big time interested in this! And am willing to play anything that is left over or that no one wants. Hell, give me a shuttle or a runabout and let me go....

    It's just one damn cube.....

    If there are going to be multiple ships per person, just give me any old Miranda or Nebula, I'm easy.

    Who in God's name said the SRM won't be out until Q1 2001? It'll be out mid- to late next *week,* I imagine.

    I can't help but ask (in my best Kirk voice, no less!)

    What does God need with a starship?

    I would be interested in playing as well. If there is not enough ships, maybe we could split some of the ships up into separate positions, helm, tactical, command?
