You go to the season post to get an overview and general feel for the season, plus any and all questions or fan theories are welcome.
Individual pages so you can talk in depth about an episode or post questions as you watch, with spoiler free answers.
I wouldn’t do the four discussion threads, but that’s just me trying to cut out redundancy. If others like breaking it up, hell, I’ll give it a try. But i mostly watch Star Trek with the wiki and/or Reddit page up so i can look up trivia and actors i recognize, so one post per episode and a megathread for the season are right up my ally.
This is messy with 20 episodes dropping all at once, but option #1 is probably the best course of action.
Another idea: All 20 discussion threads, but posted two per day for ten days. Then after two-ish weeks, posting a season-long discussion thread.
Regardless, I like the idea of a new “So what did y’all think?” discussion thread posted a couple of weeks later for those of us who don’t prefer to binge.
Checking the CTV Sci-fi schedule on Thursday, July 5th at 9 pm - the usual slot for new Star Trek - Snowpiercer is shown. The rest of the evening has the usual Star Trek Voyager reruns.
I have been looking for a ‘special presentation’ on CTV linear as they have a track record of inserting those when they’re out of alignment with streaming releases.
Thank you for posting this! It is so frustrating to know nothing when almost everyone else is getting it in 7 days. I’m going to have to unsub from all my Trek follows to avoid spoilers.
I spent a while reading through this, and I gotta say that this is a really good RPG book. It’s very thorough, it’s well written for suggesting ways to play, it’s attractively formatted. This is a cool book.
It is a pretty gorgeous book - my biggest complaint is that it can be hard to quickly find and reference specific rules during gameplay. I’m hopeful that the Second Edition will have some imrpovements on that front.
I agree with that. Looking through, I find understanding the basic rules to be kind of a burden. It took me a while to realize that “Operations” is the rules section.
I think it makes sense to show players the character sheet early, because that’s the nexus through which they really experience the game. I like the demo scene towards the beginning, but I think a quickstart guide to explain basic rules to the players very, VERY clearly is usually a good idea.
Still, I’m continuously impressed at how well this adapts Star Trek to an RPG. I was initially skeptical that an RPG could take all the nonsense we see in decades of different shows and create a cohesive basis for all of it, but this is really impressive. I’d have to play to see if the rules feel balanced and natural, but at a glance, they make far more sense than plenty of other RPGs I’ve seen. I think this looks like a really fun game.
