So… for those of you who are watching, you probably have already come to the conclusion that there are going to be some issues going forward with new canon that affects the club. This thread is a place for us to bring up the things we’re noticing. At the end of Season 1 we can evaluate all of this and as a club we may have to decide if we make changes (like our club year) in order to not always be potentially contradicting things.

Plot Points:

Mars: Obviously, the attack and destruction of Mars and Utopia Plantia in 2385 is a HUGE deal. It changes a lot of things, though how it effects STF and individual characters varies greatly. Currently I foresee it being written in casually, but if you have a character that hails from there, well that gets complicated, obviously.

What else? Please go ahead and add to my list.

One thing I think this also brings up, that there is a ban on all new synth life around 2385. We don’t have too many people playing as synth, and there is no knowledge if any existing synth life got kicked out of Starfleet or not, but it would mean anyone who had a character that was “built” pre-2385 would have been illegal in the Federation. This might be more minor, but it can affect some players.

Openings of both episodes certainly had me sit up and take notice and brought up different emotions from deep in my heart for different reasons

I loved those door things they were using in part of episode 2. It reminded me a bit of Stargates or even Slider technology. I guess they were kind of a next generation transporter or something? It would be interesting to find out about their range.

I also appreciated the appearance of Romulan Lounge Lizards - I hope they are all referred to as Leisure Suit Larry. (PS, not a reference to Larry Garfield).
