    Star Trek Legacy

    I was on youtube and started to watch a video about Wolf359, before seeing some footage from "Star Trek Lagacy". To be honest, I don't recall ever playing it, despite it being on my self. For teh first time in a long while, I used my DVD player and installed it on Windows 10 and it worked no...

    Star Trek Timelines

    ive just created a new fleet, TrekBBS.com. It's a restricted fleet, so post in here so I know it's BBS folks only. I was annoyed at this weekends event, where the squadron leader hadn't selected a character. Unfortunately the game is a bit crap where you can't post that you're away etc for a...

    Revell Maquis Fighter Completed!

    This model was very easy to build up and glue. The hardest bit was attaching the 2 wings as I didn't realise they woudl have to slot into the main hull (until it was too late)! Thank goodness for G-Clamps. I spoke to the guy in the local modelling store, as I was keen to buy some weathering...

    Resin Model Making

    One word - "difficult"!!!! 2 words - VERY difficult! Here it is, docked beside my Eaglemoss starship: I've always loved the shape of the starships in the Trek movies and have a fondness for the Grissom. The only way I could get a decent sized model of this, was from "Warp 2." Thsi was...

    The AMT Vulcan Shuttle Model

    I bought this the other year and finally got around to painting and decaling it over the summer. My biggest issue is with the decals. They are forever ripping or "bubbling" and just look horrible when they are applied. I have tried Revells "Decal Softening Fluid" and when I use that, it makes...

    GTA V for the PC

    I pre-ordered this game months ago - originally it was penned in for a January release date, but it came today. 7 DVDs to install - am getting a bit impatient! I was worried I would damage the discs when trying to get them out as they are tough to remove. Anyone else played it on PC yet?

    Does anyone have experience in resin model kits (Oberth Class)?

    I've long been a fan of the Oberth Class, so I bought the Warp model: http://www.federationmodels.com/ I have sanded it down (took forever to do the bit in the long secondary hull where the warp engine pylons fit in!). However, I would like some advice on painting and gluing it together. My...

    My battle damaged TOS USS Constellation AMT Model Kit

    Do you know when you think you know something (like a starship registry number) and then you go and check, and confirm you're right, and then go and put down the wrong bloomin' thing??? Well, I did it. I mixed up my NCC-1017 with NCC-1710. Doh! I had a shit with Decal stick, which does...

    AMT Model Kit - Clear Plastic parts question

    I have this model kit now: http://web.ipmsusa3.org/content/star-trek-deep-space-9 However, I can't find any sites on the web that tell me what types or colour of paint to use. I have had success with Tamiya spray paints before (e.g. TS-67, As-25 and Ts-81). I don't need to prime the models...

    My Revell Voyager Kit Build, with "All Good Things" Voyager tribute!

    I built this model of Voyager from Revell, as the kit was brand new and only cost £20. I was delighted to see it came with a shall Type 9 shuttlecraft. My problem (again!) was the big decals and how to place them properly over "bumpy ridges". Does anyone have any ideas? I keep getting air...

    Virtual Reality Star Trek Bridge

    http://www.trektoday.com/content/2014/04/voyager-bridge-via-the-oculus-rift/ Well, here we go, the future of all gaming! I for one cannot wait to see the VR developments that will take place over the next 10 years or so. Sooner or later, whole worlds will be able to be played in. Star Trek...

    My AMT Modelkit Galor Class Build

    I bought this on ebay as a Christmas present to myself and made it up over a couple of weekends. It was easy to glue together, but there were a couple of large gaps I had to fill with PVA. Painting was easy enough to do with a 8mm flat brush - but getting the right colour was a pain. I tend...

    Open World Game Recommendations for PC?

    I'm looking for a decent open world game for the PC. I loved Just Cause 2 and the GTA franchise. Dead Island 2 was also a good play, but I'm a bit too jumpy to make myself go through another one of those again! I would like a mix of driving different vehicles and first person shooter style...

    How to watch MP4/AVI/DIVX etc on Old TV with only AV inputs?

    I have an old Noontec 3.5" External Hard Disk enclosure, with a remote control that lets me play AVIs only through an AV (picture + sound) lead to the back of my good old Cathode Ray Tube TV. I don't want a flat screen TV with HDMI inputs etc until my current TV breaks, as that's £500ish I'd...

    What ship weapons to use in STO?

    (Have gone slightly crazy here as I thought I had posted this yesterday and can't find it anywhere!): I have now reached Vice Admiral (yay!) and have maximum crafting points. In some of the PvE missions, some folks seem to have some pretty awesome powerful front weapons - very rapid fire...

    android star trek apps...

    Have finally got a new HTC desire us phone and want some decent trek themes apps, such as live wallpaper etc. I already have the tricorder app which is cool. Surprised there isn't more when you look in the marketplace. Even some trek sounds or lcars interface would be great. Anyone point...

    Old Revell Model Questions (Babylon 5 & Voyager)

    Thanks to the joys of ebay, I purchased the B5 model kit from 1998 and the newer 2008ish model of Voyager. (Albeit, yonks ago and am only now getting round to build them when the weather is nice to sit outside). However, the painting guide is next to useless for B5 (and even Voy!). The B5...
