I like the idea of Kirk pulling out his wallet to try and chip in for beer and pizza in 1986 with a couple strips of latinum, some Klingon darseks left behind on the Bounty, and whatever Federation credits he has, which I assume are a digital currency.
They do 100% use money in the 23rd century! 24th century is a bit more debatable, but I'm still on the side of they use money.
That was my assumption.
Apologies that this one's going up even later than usual. Time kinda got away from me this past week.
The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a time bug is a good guy with a temporal Cold War.
Looks like Modiphius has a new website set up for the game as well: https://www.startrekttrpg.com/
I haven’t had a chance to look at the QuickStart yet, but I’m very interested to see how the game’s different, especially how the lack of challenge dice effects things.
I imagine my group and I will probably give it look over before our game this evening.
I am probably not going to be adding series names or episode numbers to the citations. I could potentially start doing the recommended viewing again.
Hell yeah, it is.
Give me a bunch of “Jurassic Park” mascots or give me something else entirely!
Thanks. I’d probably still do them even if everyone hated it, but it is gratifying to know that others enjoy the posts as well.
I'm not sure Soong-type android applies to Fred, and I'm certain it doesn't fit Dahj.
Unfortunately it's not clear just how indistinguishable from life Fred was. We know Dahj and the other Coppelius synths passed for human. Even Picard, though there was clearly some differences. With Fred, though, Culber pulled up the graphic of his internal works, and it didn't look like he's a meat robot. However, if he was closer to Data and Lore, I don't think getting shot in the chest would have been enough to kill him. Data's detached head was stuck in a mine on Earth for about 450 years and worked just fine after being reattached to his body, but I get the distinct impression that Fred wouldn't take decapitation so well.
I like the idea that the Breen bodies loose consistency upon death, especially if they're more gelatinous in their natural form, as these episodes of DIS appear to be presenting them.
However, I do not envy Kira and Dukat having to scoop a bunch of Breen jello out those helmets before putting them on.
