No points. I'm up against a guy on a ship named after the wussiest Klingon to grace a Trek series. Bring it on.

I think it's supposed to be named after Alexander the Great--one of the greatest military leaders in history.

Sounds like something a damned Kree would say. Not that I have any particular anti-Kree bias, even if they are godless heathen blue skinned creeps. After all, I am also a blue skinned creep *points to Andorian head*, definitely not a Skrull.

Wait. I'm playing the "good" CurBludgeon?

I sit back cooly in the Captain's chair and survey the tactical data coming in; is the Sargon coming straight in along the x-axis? What could archaon02 be up to?

I will spend 3 skill points and open a full salvo of phasers. May the Great Bird of the Galaxy bless and keep us!

I don't spend any skill points because the grain might be infested with tribbles...

JackA manages to escape the natives before having his heart torn out. BigDaddyHub fixes the A/C and becomes a Lt.

But Richard of Pony fails to save his crewmates from being eaten by a hungry plant. And DarkCorsair continues to have the worst Starfleet career ever as he scrapes the paint off the USS Castor while trying to bring it into the docking facility.


archaon02 fails to make Lt. when he loses the war game contest against Munchoboy.

My hero.

The great 21st century philosopher Terrell Owens said, "I love me some me." He only said this because his Mirror Universe twin never tried to kill him and take his place.

I don't love me some me. In fact, I hate me some me. I'm gonna kill me some me. I expend 4 Skill Points to ensure victory over this foe and to save my ship from me.

Also, Kal, I think I was supposed to get 1 skill point back upon promotion so I should have 11 skill points after this mission, right?

You are correct. I'll fix it.

Okay, now I'm willing to believe that you have been melded with an Andorian Slugfish and driven insane.

I'm tellin' your dad!!!!

I figure it's gotta be about time for my luck to change. Of course, that may be the slugfish talking. I will spend zero skill points, and either have them for the future or give them as tribute to my new Andorian Slugfish masters.

It seems fitting that I sarcastically called out the transporters as reliable and now I get a Death mission involving the transporters. Those engineers really hold a grudge...

It's probably the same transporter that you failed to properly overhaul on your last mission.
