Hiya Kalzazz,

"Star Trek" games are super fun, but the scope is a bit grander than what I was going for. That is, the PCs (assuming they are Starfleet) are not "a small group of plucky outsiders living hand to mouth until the next score," but rather "officers of a huge, interplanetary exploration and military force following orders."

It'd fit if we put, say, Riker, Worf, Troi, Data, and O'Brian on a Defiant-class ship and sent them off on their own. I should mention, though, I've received the same question from a lot of people, so I should probably at least explain why I didn't include "Star Trek"!
