• Hello and welcome to MSFC. We are a small and close knitted community who specialises in modding the game Star Trek Armada 2 and the Fleet Operations modification, however we have an open field for discussing a number of topics including movies, real life events and everything in-between.

    Being such a close community, we do have some restrictions, including all users required to be registered before being able to post as well as all members requiring to have participated in the community for sometime before being able to download our modding files to name the main ones. This is done for both the protection of our members and to encourage new members to get involved with the community. We also require all new registrations to first be authorised by an Administrator and to also have an active and confirmed email account.

    We have a policy of fairness and a non harassment environment, with the staff quick to act on the rare occasion of when this policy is breached. Feel free to register and join our community.

First Indication of Star Trek 11.

I am old enough(47) I got to watch first run airings of TOS on NBC back in the day. So I have a little different perspective on things from a lot of you. I liked ST:XI. JJ Abrams and crew got a great many things right. There were elements of Star Trek in the film which had not been seen since the Sixties. A few years back, I recall people fussing about there being no new Star Trek anywhere, either series or film. We get one and people complain about it. Worse, those of us whom enjoyed it are looked at as heretics by others whom are very vocal and very public about their dislike. It is Star Trek. A television show/movie/PC game. It is not a religion! Treating it as such means someone may have their priorities a little skewed. I don't really care if anyone else liked it or not. I am a little tired of hearing people complain about the film not being Star Trek. If someone did not like it, fine. I am not going to go on crusade to change someone's mind about this. I would like the same courtesy in return, please.

I would like to think those whom have a viewpoint different from mine have enough respect for me and my viewpoint that we can disagree and not resort to typical Web forum nonsense. I come here to enjoy myself, not get into fights over Star Trek. If this is not possible here, I am okay with it. I can go hang out someplace else on the Web.

I remember it was my dad who got me hooked on Star Trek with the re-runs of the Original Series. We watched the first episodes of TNG, DS9, and I believe VOY together. We went and watched all the movies together. Star Trek will always be something that my dad and I will always share. So whether people like the new Trek or not, remember one thing, in the end it is my belief that Roddenberry's ultimate goal was to give people an escape from reality to share with loved ones.
