[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 7663650, member: 52734"] I got into ST gaming via FASA's Starship Combat game. Shortly thereafter, I picked up the FASA RPG. However, the two didn't mix well, and my game fell through. Years later, I picked up the LUG Next Generation book and fell in love with it. When it switched to Decipher, I cautiously switched. I was happily surprised that it seemed so similar, and the Decipher set seemed like a "cleaned up" version. Sadly, I let a really bad GM run the game. It was a horrible railroad where you just watched the plot steamroll to its conclusion regardless what you did, with a GM NPC Admiral in charge of a Sovereign class w/ quantum shields, transphasic torpedoes, a "borrowed" Romulan cloaking device and who was a half-Q and married to Deanna Troi. My character was a Klingon exchange officer from the Empire (because I can do a damn good impersonation of Warf's voice). I derailed the whole game when I got fed up with the whole thing and led a player mutiny against the GM - which I utterly surprised the GM with by starting at listing every flagrant violation of the Prime Directive his admiral had undertaken, before I uttered, "And I am hereby relieving you of command - and the GM's seat".
