Have you ever considered that the Prime Directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical, and perhaps morally indefensible?

Scott “Jonathan Archer” Bakula, Alex “Guy In Charge of the Franchise” Kurtzman, and Wilson “Hugh Culber” Cruz.

I disagree - you dislike TNG for completely different reasons.

While I absolutely do not want to defend Rick Berman, I also think it’s important to acknowledge that his brand of assholishness was not unique (and, frankly, still isn’t).

I’d wager it’s the dreadnought, and it’s not particularly close.

The Breen ship absolutely dwarfs Federation HQ.

The Enterprise-J is huge, but I find fans often exaggerate its size even further.

TNG’s costume department had a lot of…interesting ideas.

Either way, their dimensions are so different that I guess it would be pretty hard to determine which has the greater internal volume.

It is a pretty gorgeous book - my biggest complaint is that it can be hard to quickly find and reference specific rules during gameplay. I’m hopeful that the Second Edition will have some imrpovements on that front.

I think the secret to its success is that it puts narrative first, which makes it adaptable to all sorts of Star Trek nonsense.

I just wish the rulebook didn’t embrace that ethos quite as much as it does!

At this point, I’m giving up on the linear channels, and am keeping my attention on the app.

Of course, the app doesn’t seem to contain information about what’s “coming soon,” so the season might just…appear there one day.
