The problems with fighters in startrek are, that they are (or at least were) completely useless.
The advantage of fighters are their relatively high speed and the ability to evade weapon fire during combat. But Star Trek weapon technology is so adcanced (at least in TNG) that they nearly always hit the target. A photon torpedo is able to correct it's course completely so you just would have to fire one torpedo on a fighter and that's the fighter that's why there are no small fighters or similar stuff in TNG

In the DS9 action scenes they started to make torpedos don't hit their target and weapons missing cause that looks good. and bang, you have fighters since then you can argue about the usefullnes of them but at least they seem to take - a small - role in startrek now.

an addon adds 1 race, or some ships. expansions add more missions, some ships....mods are any addon, total conversion, or expansion. a total conversion changes/adds all new races, with all new textures.

When is 3.0 expected to be released? I have combed through this entire site and there is no mention of a release date. Does anyone have one?

posted on August 24th, 2004, 8:27 pm

There is none, expect half a month, a little more, just a guess.

posted on August 24th, 2004, 9:58 pm
