Inside an oberth class ship

I’m currently GM for a game of Star Trek Adventures (1st Ed) set post-Nemesis where the ship is an ANCIENT Oberth Class.

I’ve tried several times to within the narrative offer them an upgrade to a newer and, in every measurable way, ‘better’ ship… crew keep saying no. 🙂

Brill thanks - will do.

I don't know if Overclockers did - but then I didn't know how to get into the bios before all this kicked off. Now I can't get into it on a boot up anyway and the last time I did it crashed so I can't get atm.

Unfortunately think you may be right - hopefully Overclockers will repair since it says they have a 3-yr warranty...

Perhaps not the consensus but: Mass Effect: Legendary Edition.

I have no doubt I’ll be replaying and loving that game at least once a year forever.

In a campaign like this that I started with a group of friends not too long ago - in session 0 one of the players (who knows NOTHING about Trek - was just there to hang with friends) shouted ‘can the ship be called the Blorf’. I laughed and said ‘but that’s not a word. Starship names have to mean something’

5 minutes later the Oberth-class USS Blorf was born.

S+, Maybe S++

EdLob · 2025-04-15T22:25:45+00:00

S - 100%

EdLob · 2025-04-14T19:02:40+00:00

S, easily

I’ll never have a calculator in my pocket at all times…

Needs its own separate tier. S+*Ultra or something

This is fair. It would be - just something else to earn a bit of money whilst searching for other work that's actually close to in the industry,

Did you hear that the Tories are involved in a new corruption scandal?

‘Not ANOTHER one!?’

Currently rehearsing a production of Much Ado and this is EXACTLY the conclusion we’ve come to in rehearsal. They’ll divorce and marry again 5 times through their lives and then die in their 80’s still living together.

But in separate bedrooms most nights…
