This is Thiral. He’s an Andorian. I created him sometime last year, back in the days when the Andorian ship was still on the schedule. I’ve always liked Andorians and thought flying one, with a BOFF crew made entirely of Andorians, would be fun. My interest in STO waned in Read more…
Well folks, I had about given up on STO as a game. But then I read this article on Massively that outlines the new fleet Starbase system being added with season 6. Then another one was added with an interview with Daniel Stahl. I want to quote to pieces first: Read more…
I recently heard about this game, Artemis, and am intrigued. From the descriptions and videos, you play with a group of friends as the crew of a starship. By linking, via LAN or over the net, several computers, each player takes a different role on the ship; from engineer, to Read more…
I’ve been managing to find time to play SWTOR some. Just in bits and pieces. Enough time to work on leveling my Sith Inquisitor but never enough of a stretch to join my guild for any Ops or Flash Points. I’ve now gotten my third character past 20 and I’ve Read more…

I’ve been playing STO lately since it is more forgiving for limited time. I’ve mainly just been running DOFF missions once or twice a day, but occasionally having enough time to do a STF. I managed to get the MK XI MACO set thanks to a fortuitous shield drop plus Read more…
Well, the day has come, Patch 1.2 is live in SWTOR. It has been 2-3 weeks since I have even logged into SWTOR due to my time constraints (I have played a lot of STO ironically, but I can log in for 10min, set some DOFF missions to run and Read more…
