Now, you KNOW I would be all for it! Always been a fan of Klingons and would play them fully.
We would have to modify a type of Juggernaut into a type of battle cruiser with the primary force being of Birds of Prey and a few Klingon transports.
Let us not forget others in Trek:
-The Borg
-Cardassians
-Andorrians
-Bajorans
-Vulcans

I could continue on!
Yea, I planed on replacing the nomads with borg, cuz flying arround with enterprise killin borg would be sweet...
There are probably more than a few of us here that would enjoy a good Trek mod with good admins. I personally have been a card-carrying, ridge wearing, convention going Klingon for 10 years with a large fan group in South Florida. We work extensively with other trek groups in our area. I have only been playing FL for about 5 months & enjoy it extensively, I play on 3 servers & have a Klingon vessel on each, the USA one, the main one here & a little on the GB one depending on which one is up at the time. On each I have a hessian fighter or Thor bomber as they look the most like Klingon vessels with the nose booms & wings. If I found a larger ship fitting that profile I would get one.
So' if someone does come up with one I, at least, not speaking for the other Klingons I know are already trying to "fit" in would certainly be there. This does not even count the members of the other races that I know are hiding out there.
Any Romulans, Ferengi, Vulcans, Andorians, Tholians, Gorn, Cardassians, Orions, or the many others out there with an interest want to pitch their bar of gold-pressed latinum into this discussion?
well it should be very popular since these guys are planning to make it as a WoW clone in space: http://www.startrekonline.com/
i read through that site and realized that i got everything already for free here at the disco mod, well except that ground force battle, but thats a thing i am not interested in at all. its about flying space ships :D
and those guys are really not good at making the game, look at the models they put into game, the romulan warbird and the klingon raptor are just the 22nd century ships from the enterprise series put into the 2409 time. and their selfmade models like their so called excalibur class doesnt look any refreshing. it just looks like an early tng era ambassador class trimmed on the late and post tng era looks. really not exciting. and the huge klingon ship is just so unklingon, klingon ships have a very distinct look, they all have their wings at the back, some sort of thin neck and a bubble head at the front (yeah i know,the neg'vahr doesnt have a bubble, but i think you know what i mean). what did they come up with? a big clumsy beast of ship, just unimaganitative. they should get some ship design lessons from our devs, i honestly think that the volounteer ship designs here have a higher quality in terms of fitting ships looks to their respective nation than the ships those devs come up with. the best thing about the game are the path to 2409 written storylines, they are actually pretty nice to read, but other than that the game has lost me as potential customer already, due to the lazy ship designs and the absurd pricing system (monthly fee + micro transactions). first i read about the game i got really excited and thought yeah flying romulan and klingon ships will be great, but i got more and more dissappointed the more i read into the topic.
so go and make a star trek conversion and kick those guys where it hurts :laugh:
although i imagine it to be very difficult to get a real star trek feel going with the freelancer engine, although it would be really refreshing to have an actually good online game for the star trek universe as i dont think star trek online will become a good one.
