This is pretty much what I expected.Its a long way off but i refuse to play SF Battles.Having a table top miniatures game with official ST ships Is something I've waited a long time for.CODA ST has gotten me back into roleplaying after many years of CCG's(thank God I don't play those any more)and miniatures.The system rocks and I'm running a Starfleet freighter-based series set in 2373.Thanks for the replies.And by the way it pleases me to no end that Wizards didn't get the license.I had heard that the Roddenberry estate didn't like the way Wizards and Fantasy Flight were handling things so they pulled out.The LUG buyout also killed the Dune RPG ,another game I was really looking forward to.Keep on Trekken'.
