• 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.

Kenneth George Baker, better known as Kenny Baker, the actor in the R2 suit, has died after a long struggle with disease. When Baker was born, his family was told he likely wouldn't survive past puberty due to his dwarfism, but he still lived to the distinguished age of 81.

I saw the headline on Ain't It Cool...

Ugh so many of my childhood actors are leaving it's completely depressing. R2 and Twiki were some of my favorite little droids. RIP Mr. Baker.
