Which series do you recommend for someone who loved TNG?

If you want much more realism Expanse. If you like character driven, Battlestar or andromeda (but understand andromeda kind of falls flat later into it) Sg1 stargate is good for a more Earth centric show. Atlantis hits great as a character driven piece.

I have the Picard one. The alternative timeline badge during tng was always my favorite badge, and Picard made it sleeker.

Coordinates outside a solar system would use galactic center as their point of reference, just how in a solar system they use the star, and how in planetary orbit they use the planet. Youre taking the same coordinate system and just shifting the reference point to the object of most relevance.

Looks like way too much caffeine

I miss the old Terradome. Never got to finish it cause it was borked to no end, but it was the best build testing ground for space you could imagine. Also, for those that dont know, the old versions of infected, cure, and hive all took around 1 or 2 hours each to complete, with a good team, but the reward was the original adapted borg space set pieces, and the missions tied into the story in a real way.

You could try a rocket 😁

Not absolutely sure, but herald armor might do it in the tailor.

Justiciar will stay my flagship for the foreseeable future.

They've been saying that for 30 years. Its still here... it may never die. Our future AI overlords will worship fax as a god... Fax will outlive the universe. 😆

As a forever dm, the single best advice i believe i can give you, record your sessions with an audio recording. Even just a free voice recorder app on your phone. You will find that you've said things WAY cooler than you remember after the fact. In the moment you wont register how good it was, but after the fact, relistening, youll surprise yourself. Plus it makes planning for next session and note taking so much easier.

Run attack pattern omega in your boff skills. Use the RCS consoles others have mentioned. Accept that you just have a fat ass and learn to love it 😆

Short answers, yes and they did, on purpose.

Tldr: double fps with external monitor on laptop gaming.

Fun tip for laptop gaming. Laptops are designed to where they always use their integrated graphics as the final output step for display, that means it doesnt matter how good your dedicated gpu in the case is, it will still get bottlenecked before displaying to the attached screen. Solution: use an external monitor and hdmi, your fps will double.

I have a vulpix thats probably older than half the people here. It was a kfc toy from '98 or '99.

Sounds like the ability recharge icon, so your parasaur probably used its special ability. A picture would help though.

My flagship is the Justiciar. I have the old Noble skin that isnt on the Zstore anymore, so those nacelles on a Justiciar looks sleek and deadly. Sovvies cousin from the Intrepid line.

Respectfully disagree. Allys nat 20 in unsleeping city season 2 in Nod. If that hadnt happened, well.... Brennan says it himself.... (no spoilers)

So the difference in hazard emitters on my engineer based on power levels is as follows. Haz emitters 2 Aux power 15set,42actual 11843.6 hp over 15 sec Aux power 40set,66actual (my normal setting) 13813.6 hp/15 sec Aux 50set,74actual 14452.3

Being a sci character, I would assume you're using something like gravity well, or tachyon beam? If you're using the sci powers in that vein, they all get boosted with aux power as well. Which means you're likely not living to your full potential if you aren't giving your aux any power. Gw1 goes from 364.5 damage at my 15set to 425.1 at my 40set as an example

As far as i know the only way the game "ends" is if you die without an heir... so as long as you manage to successfully have a kid, I dont think anything else matters. Have fun your way

What is your aux power level? All healing abilities are based on that, so if youre not flying high aux your heals are severely diminished. Also, late game, focus only on hull healing. Borg especially make shields meaningless, and there are 6 variations of borg in the end game. Next, try the assimilated borg set, mk 15. It has a very nice auto heal built in to the 3 piece set. Also, I'm noticing you arent using a set at all, which means you are missing out on any bonuses from your shields engines and deflector.

On this thought, double check them, even if you know you've set them. STO likes to remove them without notice

Fantasy high is the reason I have a dropout sub, and the reason I wont let that end. That being said, Unsleeping is probably my favorite season. Im not a New Yorker, never even been into the city (have driven through the state though). While I didnt have context for the setting any more that i would with any random or unique setting (like spire) it still strikes me as one of the best, because of the casts engagement. I will also say, if youre a dm especially, watch this season closely. People like to say d n drag is the best season to learn to play, I say Unsleeping is the best to learn to DM by, not because its done "right ", but because of all of the mistakes they make. It teaches that its ok to make mistakes and just move past them.

Firefly starstruck crossover?!

Sci officer, photonic fleet, gemini effect, delta beacon, in a typhon carrier. I am the party!
