So what you want is Star Trek that...had nothing to do with Star Trek, because literally anything using the title, concept, or characters will be, by definition, "built on nostalgia." Got it.

For sure - I'm certain the supplements will be useful even with the 2E rules.

Surely there are surgical options you could explore first.

Meaney had always struck me as the ultimate working actor, fairly ambivalent about Star Trek beyond it being a job (which is fine).

It's hard to imagine him turning down an offer, were it too come in.

I think 1E and 2E are supposed to be pretty compatible.

But yeah...the 1E core rulebook is not great when it comes to explaining the actual rules in a way that's concise and easy to reference in the middle of a session.

I believe Alex Kurtzman said at SDCC that there was only one more regular role to be cast, so I guess this is that.

The short answer is that no such test has ever been produced, and the boxing association that claimed they had done one never revealed the precise results, or even which lab had supposedly done the test, and has since been decertified for corruption.

I don't know what goes above S-Tier, but that's where Ensign Janeway of the Enterprise-D and Captain Nicole Janeway of the Voyager-that-never-was belong.

Captain Nicole Janeway from the early days of the Voyager pilot.

I have no idea if I'm going to like it - it's definitely not shaping up to be the story I had in my head - but I'm interested in seeing them do something different.

 

The city plans to forgo transferring more than $15 million from its general revenue into the reserve fund as a way to cut down the deficit. It will also use debt deferral, interest savings and expenditure management to further reduce the shortfall.

The plan does not call for service reductions or staff cuts.

 

In case you weren't sick of this merry-go-round yet.
