    Also I want your guys' opinion: would the Tiqqun crew be discriminated against due to them all being TECHNICALLY Augmented? You see I just realised that since I based this story off of my own playthrough of IXION, in the game you can research an upgrade that gene-engineers your crew to be more...

    Oh the gameplay is much improved now. The difficulty options really make it more accessible and the devs tuned the whole “accidents” and “crew rioting” mechanics to make them more tolerable. But I don’t fucking get how an accident can happen in a Mess Hall that’s SO FUCKING SEVERE, that FIVE...

    Pretty good imo. The game received a bunch of bug fixes and a difficulty selector which is great for the user experience. What remains shit is the logistics system. You have to move units of a certain element around. But wha if you want to demolish a building which refunds all the elements...

    And that's it. The first story that I’ve ever completed. It's a real sense of accomplishment. I hope you liked it. I will be free to answer any queries (within reason, of course).

    Hong Rui Jie became a minor celebrity across the Federation as accounts of his actions circulated through newsnets and academic forums alike. He published an award-winning memoir of his experiences, simply named Tiqqun, and in time accepted a posting as administrator of a frontier Federation...

    A lone beep at Wesley's console broke the tense silence. Wesley blinked, fingers flying across the display. He looked up. "Evacuation of the Tiqqun is complete. Only Administrator Hong and a skeleton engineering crew remain aboard." Picard exhaled slowly. "Hail them." After a moment...

    Picard leaned back in his command chair. "Any updates on the Piranesi?" "Piranesi is maintaining its current approach. No unusual energy emissions detected. Estimated time to contact remains unchanged," Worf reported. Picard nodded, then turned to Lieutenant Crusher. "Status of the...

    i. Throughout the station were scenes of barely controlled chaos. Trams ran at maximum capacity, ferrying dense clusters of evacuees between sectors. Repurposed cargo carriers swallowed crewmen by the dozens, bodies packed like sardines. Traffic marshals had sealed off all non-essential...

    "Mr. Worf! Mr. Worf!" Worf turned as the shout echoed down the corridor. Tiqqun's Dr. Salim was sprinting toward him, a PADD in his arms. "Dr. Salim," Worf greeted evenly. "What is it?" Salim skidded to a halt a few paces away, bent over and gasping. He raised one hand, silently asking for a...

    "That leaves the spinal cannon." A chill seemed to sweep the room. "A single discharge – even at a fraction of full strength – would be sufficient to destroy this vessel," Worf growled. "Correct," said Lee. "Assuming a direct hit." Geordi's brow furrowed. "What kind of firing posture does it...

    "Secondary armaments?" Riker queried. Lee met the eyes of the woman in the off-white jumpsuit, then at Administrator Hong. Hong wordlessly nodded, and Lee sat. The woman stood. "Alina ter Meer," she said briskly. "Director of Research, Sector 6's Science Union. I've prepared an analysis."...

    "– fucking impossible. How is that sonnuvabitch still alive?!" That was the first thing Picard heard as he entered the meeting room with Enterprise's senior officers. The speaker – an enraged woman in an off-white jumpsuit bearing a Tiqqun shoulder patch – whirled at his entry, flushed red, and...

    ONE WEEK LATER "...but at this moment, Captain Picard, Tiqqun does not need much. DOLOS is guilty of many sins, but at least they'd designed my station to produce all the things needed for human survival." Captain Picard nodded. He felt slightly odd, talking to a blank wall on Enterprise's...

    Jean-Luc Picard took a moment to assess the man who shuffled into the meeting room. The man was in a poor way. Beyond his general dishevelment, the man looked to be on the verge of collapsing. Large, dark eye bags hung under bloodshot eyes, which squinted at him and the rest of Enterprise's...

    I read your comment and laughed. You are just too easy. In a darkened room somewhere on Earth, a grown man, Darkenning, licks the cheeto dust from his meaty fingers and screeches at his computer screen. "ARRGGG," he wails, "I deliberately entered a thread full of things that I do not like, and...
