Typhon Station is a very fastpaced PBeM RPG with skilled, experienced players and a warm sense of bonding and community. We play at the turn-of-the-century, 2400, and are located in the Typhon Expanses, bordering the Neutral Zone, proximate to the Romulan Empire, and near the Iconian Digs, and are on the first warning route of the original Borg Incursion. We have three stations to post from, SB 185, USS Odyssey, and USS Wraith. They all have general and particular storylines and all interact. This game is not for the faint of heart! The writing is superb and comes hot and heavy. We have some open spots and also we will consider character suggestions. So, longtime RPGers and novices, check us out. See if you want to make Typhon Station your home away from home. (0 comments | Add)

In his new interview in the latest issue of the Star Trek: Communicator, co-executive producer Brannon Braga talks generally about season two of the series, saying the Temporal Cold War arc is somewhat planned out and the founding of the Federation will definitely be a topic for the series at some point.

"We thought about revealing [FutureGuy] in the [first-season] finale, but it just seemed too soon and it didn't service the story. For all we know, he'll be revealed the next time we do a Temporal Cold War story," he reveals.

He also says the writers are very cognizant of making the Temporal Cold War interesting in each installment.

"We've mapped out a great deal of the arc, and want to make sure that every time we do it, you learn something very tantalizing."

He goes on to talk about the reasoning behind the on-going storyline.

"Because so much of the show’s concept is rooted in Star Trek’s history, we thought it would add a little spice to create a villain who doesn’t want to see humans succeed in space. It was just too cool a premise to pass up."

He also says the founding of the Federation will definitely happen, but no all at once. Finally, he says bringing the fan favorite Romulans into the series this season isn't a surety at this point (the interview was conducted several weeks ago).

"We have major continuity issues with them. We would very much like to do Romulans, but a) we don't know quite how yet, staying consistent with the original series, and b) since the new movie deals with Romulans, we want to give them some breathing room. We'll do them eventually, but not right away."
