Well, we knew this was going to happen – just how soon was the question.  And it’s been renamed the Annorax Science Dreadnought.  What’s even more interesting is that this ship can utilize the Tipler Cylinder and the Manheim Device from the Temporal Destroyer and time ships.  Both consoles recently had performance fixes which makes them possibly viable.  I was planning on using this on my Sci-toon … Continue reading It’s Real – T6 Krenim Annorax Science Dreadnought

STLV started today, and I can’t but feel I’m missing out on the ST event of the year.  So many cool things to see, do, drink, and people to meet.  I’ve booked my time off for next year and my fingers are crossed that the project gods will look kindly on me, with no last minute work-related mergers and acquisitions to deal with. There will most … Continue reading Holodeck Release Notes: August 6th, 2015, and bigger Zen discounts for larger purchases.

I’ve had an unusually busy week, and didn’t have my usual chance to enjoy this weeks podcast.  I’ve fallen behind with a few planned posts on the T6 HEC comparisons (coming right at after this blog), but as I was building the HEC comparison chart it turned into an interesting 2 hour event, a great interview with IQFleet, capping off with a follow-up to Snipey’s post … Continue reading A kick-ass podcast this week with The SHOW – long – but well worth the 2 hours.
