I actually prefer it to either VOY or ENT (I know, I'm a traitor...nothing will ever surpass DS9, TNG or TOS in my mind though).  There's just something so captivating about BG, and, although I had my doubts after the first few episodes, this season's looking to be my favorite!  The only issue I'm having is that I can't possible think of a way to end it that wouldn't be dissapointing:  post-apocalyptic earth-blah, super advanced earth-predictable, prehistoric earth-meh.  Anyone else keeping up with this show?

i was already a fan of the old show and i like the remake, although some of the first episode suffer the normal "wow we make a cool new show with action" virus the story develops very well and has become a very good series, i like it :)

You can easily judge the opinion of the Fleet Ops Stuff by finding hidden units of popular non trek shows in Fleet Ops v3 and further versions - these are your favourites, and i think the battlestar will cruise through Fleet Ops space someday

It's one of my favorite shows ever (up there with Angel and Enterprise) but it's gotten so dark lately it's almost amazingly dark.  It makes season one look so hopeful.  It's a wonder these people don't commit mass suicide.

Dunno about you, but I want to see a frakkin' Cylon Base Star,, complete with nuclear ordinance.

That would literally be beyond awesome.

That just made me think...what if when they finally find earth in Bg, it's the federation! 

Hey, what if Tyranids in this universe and the federation had to travel to the universe of 40k to enlist help from the Empire?  (they've had plenty of trips into other universes, after all!)

Yeah but we all know that the tyranids would add their unworthy biomass to the swarm. Yes, I am a tyranid player/painter/scratch-built sculpter  :sweatdrop:

Very nice model :)

FYI - There are Battlefleet Gothic, Battlestar Galactica and Descent based total conversion mods in progress for Armada 2 :)

Post by: Optec on May 22, 2008, 11:13:55 PM
yep :) there wont be much non-trek stuff in Fleet Operations. we are based around Star Trek after all and we have all hands full to get that done. But some rare goodies will come from time to time and may be found with low chances on scrapyard maps as unclassified derelicts.

The first and last 2 episodes have been real good. My problem was the extremely boring 3 episodes following the premier, I got very bored.
