My wife and I will be playing this. She's a die hard Trekkie and that makes me one by proxy I suppose. She played SWG for me, so I guess I'll be doing this for her! We should try to get all of us from SimHQ on the same server when this launches!

That would be a good idea, although you may run into time zone issues for a group as diverse as SimHQ. I suppose we will have to wait and try to co-ordinate things before release once the server list is out.

I want Tribbles on my ship. I hate Klingons

I think BestBuy's Pre-order comes with a pet tribble if your are Fed.

Some tribbles look like furry strawberry filled donuts.

Yeah, it would be fun to get a fleet together or whatever you do. I'm sure there will be enough timezone overlap to make it worthwhile. I'm CST but most people I game with are EST. I'm not on until the kids are in bed anyway.

The wife and I have pre ordered from Gamestop as of yesterday. The Constitution class ship was just too much for her to pass up. We're EST so I guess we'll just keep this thread alive until launch day!

Agreed! The possibility of manning the old Connie is just too good to pass up.

What will we name the "Fleet" then? We need a good name, Fleet SimHQ doesn't really have a nice sound to it.

Star Fleet SHQ?
I have no idea. LOL

I think you can be Klingon too, but I don't know if I could do it. I was actually hoping there would be an Enterprise era available, that's my favorite Enterprise. Doesn't look like that will be in there though. I'm assuming different eras will just be different servers, has there been word of how that will work? Maybe you have to work up to TNG and later?
