AOY Admiralty Cards (Including the Vengeance & T’laru)
A tad overwhelmed at the moment – 12 ships pending for review including the Vengeance for Lobi, but not one of the lockbox ships. While some players did manage to get these, the RNG gods once again gave me the Royal stink eye. Ah well, I was lucky before – but I think I’ll wait for their appearance in the Infinity Lockboxes next year before … Continue reading AOY Admiralty Cards (Including the Vengeance & T’laru)

Star Trek Official Fan Film Rules Released, thanks Axanar!
This morning Star Trek (CBS/Paramount) released an official set of guidelines outlining the do’s and don’ts of what constitutes fan film productions.

First Impressions: Hands on with the Vorgon Xyfius Heavy Escort 3.5/5 Stars
For most players the process to earn the ship takes little more than 5 minutes a day on Risa. It can be done with a rental jetpack, and from most reports is a simple process to learn. I’m not a fan of the flying game so I took advantage of the Lobi voucher route and finished the ship on day one. There isn’t an advantage … Continue reading First Impressions: Hands on with the Vorgon Xyfius Heavy Escort 3.5/5 Stars
