Star Trek RP

[Erex]

Ok, I got an idea, so I was watching Star Trek First Contact yesterday. And here is my idea for Star Trek RP. The Borg have invaded the Federation space, and you have been called in by Starfleet to stop them. Creating a no mans land stretching 2 systems deep. The Borg now are assimilating Starfleet vessels, and worlds. You are the last line of defense. Character name: Image(STO image) Ship Class: Ship Name: Backstory: Personality: Any other crew:

something with the borg would be cool. If we stay true to the STO lore...that would make it better

[Erex]

Ya, so we doing this? I'm game, the Borg are in the Regulus Sector, and we will start at the ESD, and will get our mission, during a diplomatic meeting.

[Naked Crook]

I would like this for sure. I know Kairu would like it...but we run the risk of having too many at once.

Star Trek takes presidence over Fallout. :) And this would make it amazing..

[Kairu]

Hmm, I'm not quite sure about this, to be honest. I would rather not have something so... "elitist"? I mean, the Borg are meant to be undefeatable by normal means and captains. The only reason Picard and the longer lasting crew members have defeated the Borg is because of their resolve and later, their prior experiences at Wolf 359. Even Worf who was commanding the Defiant at the time (and former crew member of the Enterprise) wasn't fairing well against the Borg Cube in the Sol System. As for the STO aspect, there's one thing they do not include... it's the COUNTLESS planets and worlds that have been named in the canon. STO doesn't even have Bolarius IX. It's mentioned and there's doff assignments for like "Asylum on Bolerius IX". But you can't visit it because it doesn't really exist. I do like the idea of staying true to STO though, it does allow a sort of level for Cubifications and slight variations. I think the Borg would be more of a sub-plot/special story arc for the RP as the fact that they're meant to be Godly. As for taking precedence, there is not meant to be competition between the two. If I recall correctly, there are allowed up to two sub-RPs going on at any one time. So they'd both be active. In addition, how would this work out? One crew and ship, or multiple ships in a single fleet, or just random ships just from all over?

[Naked Crook]

Well...we could leave that up to people. If they wanted their own ship and crew...they can have that. If they want to be a part of someone else's crew...that would be fine too

[Kairu]

Plus, also touching on my previous point, if the Federation lost most of the Regulus Sector Block that would mean that half of Romulan and Klingon space would be assimilated by now. In which case, the whole Alpha Quadrant would be screwed.

[Erex]

Hmm you got a point Kairu, then maybe we could have a KDF war, and the borg are very rare

[killerrabbit213]

well if it takes place after voyager gets homes, feds would be more formidable to the borg....when can still use sto to cubiby either way we go
