Also ask him if he's ready to run our Play by Forum game!  :dreamer:

The key to surviving this site is to not say something which ends up as someone's tag line - Steelgrave

I glanced at the documents and was confused like usual. I'll have to spend some more quality time with them later.

Looks like pre-orders for this start in a couple of weeks. I'm still not 100% sold on the game yet. I have signed up to play it at Origins so more thoughts to come.

Of course, I will buy it and all of the accessories. I mean, it is Star Trek. And just take a look at that Worf mini!

They're beginning shipping of the Conan core book this week, and are supposed to have them all shipped before two more.  So I imagine efforts will begin switching over to filling out the Star Trek line after that.

If you're concerned about Modiphius shirking on the amount of content, I don't think you have much to worry about.  After seeing how packed full of stuff their previous 2d20 system core books are, and the huge amount of densely packed 'splat' books they create alongside, I'm sure they'll cover an immense amount of the setting.  I'm impressed with the amount of writing done for Mutant Chronicles 3rd, and a similar quantity being done for the Conan line, too.  8)

The 2d20 system is also pretty cool.  I'm curious as to how it will be adapted to Star Trek, but it should fit pretty well.  Especially considering it already has implementations for crewing different positions on vehicles/starships, as one notable facet.

I'm I suppose to feel overwhelmed? That's how I feel right now.
I'm not smart enough for that. I'm just like, wow! Intense.

The pre-order is live! The prices seem way to high to me. I did order the core rules, dice and GM screen though.  :D

Those ain't cheap either.

Yep, that's exactly why I didn't get them. It was hard enough to bring myself to order the GM screen.
