Tholians vs Dominion

posted on November 22nd, 2009, 5:07 pm

In the Fleet Operations Universe the Tholians are no longer a major stellar power. They live in a handful of colonies spread across three solar systems. They have an intact peace treaty with both the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire for more than three hundred years now and do trade here and there. However, because the Tholians are more "spiritual" creatures living in crystals with no exact material body, most of their trade goods are of no use to other species and likewise they do not need stuff like food, ale and spare parts. They are a cast-away and isolated race, happy with their peace and silence. Until one day...

The Tholians will play a large role in the Fleet Operation's storyline and thus will be featured as a major non playable faction. They will be able to access advanced and unique technologies, including special abilities which are similar to the Tholian Web in The Original Series.

Should be plenty of room for some cool technologies being allowed - but they are a minor power nonetheless.

Hey, let's not only give them powerful torpedos that never miss, lets say they can use it for fuel too...

See my point?

Believe me i like the idea of having Tholians in, but not if they can rival the Federation all on there lonesome 

I see your point Proton.... what if I were to make these torpedoes able to miss vessels with strong deflectors because of the deflection feild repelling the torpedo?
