    Question Got FASA?

    Does anyone have a link to a good site that has pics and stats of FASA species? Someone is (or was) posting FASA species stats on these boards (thanks a million!), but we are having a problem finding out who these species are.

    Our group has been expanding the available species for game play by adding FASA species (converted to ICON) but are having a problem as that the stuff we are finding does not always include an image. (For an example: are the Caitians the cat like species seen in the Fed. Council or the bar on Nimbus III?).

    We would love to add the species represented in the Council Chamber to our game, and have heard that FASA did write ups on most of them at sometime. . .but we have yet to find such information on the net (nor available on e/bay) yet. It is only luck that we found out that Efrosian is the species of the Fed. President in STVI.

    We have the some of the species stats. . .but are not sure how these species are. Can anyone please help and point us in the right direction? Thanks!

    I do believe there was a Star Trek III and possibly a Star Trek IV sourcebook. Not sure where to find them though...

    Well, I did find this site. It has descriptions of both the Star Trek III and Star Trek IV sourcebooks, but no pics.

    Star Trek IV Sourcebook cover

    I have the ST3 sourcebook at home... I might also have the ST4 one; I would have to check when I go back home.

    Go with Star Trek IV Sourcebook Update. It has pictures from that movie to indicate which race is which from Caitian to Efrosian.
    Anyhoo, just some random thoughts...

    Actually I joined it a few days ago. . .been one of the sources we have been using. The only problem is (for example) you have the template of the "Arcadia" but who is that? The cat like species seen in the Federation Council or the furry bald species seen in the bar of Nimbus III? See our problem?
