Anyone play any Star Trek Tabletop games? (Specifically STA, the SFU games from ADB, or Attack Wing/Alliance)? I wanted to get a tabletop gaming magazine together for that, but I don't know if it has a justifying interest.

By STA do you mean Star Trek Adventures, or Star Trek Ascendancy? Either way, yes to both.

Can you recommend a starting adventure for ST Adventures, o great @[email protected] (or anyone else)? I want to try it on my group and would prefer something pre-made at first.

Modiphius used to have a free pdf magazine to support their product lines, and the third issue has an STA adventure titled "The Ghost Writer" that I've used as an intro to the game three different times, twice in what was specifically a "learn to play" scenario. I think it's a pretty decent little adventure that makes for a good one shot.

Also, the first time I played as a PC, the GM of that game ran the intro adventure from the core rulebook. It's pretty good as well, though it does include the extended task mechanics which I think are useful but wouldn't use in an intro game.

Happy to help in any way I'm able.

Board games or wargames? I've played neither that are star trek themed but Id love to try some.

Are any on BoardGameArena?

We play Star Trek Ascendancy from time to time. The only flaw in that game is the sheer downtime each player ends up enduring. Otherwise it’s a wonderful game.

I just got the Dominion Wars attack wing game, but haven’t played much.

I have the Star Trek version of Settlers of Catan if that counts.
