Welcome to the fleet.

Welcome to the fleet.

Congratulations to the three of you

Doctor Carol Marcus... The plot thickens me thinks! Got to say, i'm loving the look of those disruptor rifles!

Welcome to the fleet.

I found this rather amusing

Ah, that makes sense.

Indeed. It was very hard to chose between the three. I expect the unseen long list must have been hard to whittle down to just these three as well.

Dang it, I need to findthat Karl urban interview now

I buy that idea Whale. It seems the most logical explanation at this time I should add something about my previous mention of Canon. Although Mr Orci is noted as saying that the comics are canon, I haven't seen a Paramount executive come out and say it's canon.. So I'm still holding my breath. As a note, if the badguy is Khan and the film does not live up to or exceede the quality of TwoK, i will walk out of the cinema, something I have never done in my life.

Hrmmm, if they've gone with Khan... whoops! That being said, I still don't see enough evidence for it to be Khan. As for that comic.. doesn't the information have to be on screen or referenced on screen to be canon rule still apply to the Abrams Universe?

I agree with upping the technology levels. It would make sense for certain aspects of the ship to work with a proper interactive heads up display like in the Avengers but for other things to retain the use of consoles (Helm and possibly tactical.) I would like the show set in the aftermath of the Hobus super nova. It could deal with the Federation during the fall out from trying to restore friendly ties with the now fractured Romulan Empire whilst trying to maintain friendly ties with the Klingon Empire. I would also love to see the show expand on species 8472, maybe even with season long plot arc dealing with an attempt to invade normal space in the Alpha/Beta quadrants. This would also give producers a chance to enshrine a name for them into canon. As for cast... Patrick Stewart - A few guest appearances as Jean Luc Picard, Federatiuon Ambassador to the RSE Kate Mulgrew - A few guest appearances as Admiral Katherine Janeway. Michael Dorn - A few guest apperances as Federation Ambassador to the Klingon Empire. Benedict Cumberpatch - Captain Savok (a Vulcan), CO USS Hercules (Prometheus class starship.) Stephen Amell - Commander William Dunheim (a Human), FO USS Hercules Karren Gillian - Lieutenant Commander Erin Felize (an unjoined Trill) - 2XO & Chief Science Officer USS Hercules Patti Yasutake - Lieutenant Commander Alyssa Ogawa (a Human) - Chief medical Officer USS Hercules Other positions i'm having trouble thinking on. I'd like a Bolian and possibly a Tellarite in the mix of the main cast but can't think of any female/male to play them.

Welcome back

I could just imagine JJ's doomsday machine.. Huge overblown special affect covered with lens flare and rather imposing. I mean, it would make the Narada look like a shuttle

http://collider.com/star-trek-2-into-darkness-%C2%ADsynopsis/213764/ Can anybody say Gary Mitchell? With Sherlock himself playing the man destined to become a demi God but corrupted by power and hate

Do want!

Good to be back Looking forward to simming on the Mercury

Welcome

Gets my vote. So that's at least 1 nomination from a simmer from another ship and the panel idea.

Welcome to the fleet

Running a casptains Council only vote along side the current system in that each month could have two winners. In the event that the council picks the same sim as the members of the fleet, that simmers sim goes into the final in both sections. End of the year, the fleet votes on the winners as per normal procedure but the cc also pick their best of the best in a similar process. Thus, potentially there are two top simmers, one winner via peer group and one via the 118 command team.

Congratulations to both of you. And, welcome to the Tiger Crew Logan

First contact has a very good soundtrack imho, it's up there with TWOK

I'd love a return to the TWOK style uniform

A more glaring error is the Klingon Birds of Prey as 09' calls them quite clearly being D7 attack cruisers (Kobayashi Maru scene)
