This is literally the best thing ever and I need to own it yesterday. While there's no story, it's basically just recreations of famous scenes, but who cares? There are awesomely drawn cats. As Trek characters. What more do you need in life? Hopefully, Ms. Parks will have sequels with Next Gen and all the other incarnations of ST, and possibly some other fandoms. Buffy cats? OMG, I needz it! I'll try to add some pictures later if I don't procrastinate too long.

4 player game is ~3 hours (longer with AP) but it's much faster than Firefly. (0 more)
A faster 'Verse
Be a bounty hunter, a smuggler, or somewhere in between. It's all about getting the right ship and crew for the right job. With chatacters from the comics, clone wars cartoon, and movies you are bound to find one you like.
It's fairly rules light and easy to understand.
I have played this four times now and have played differently each time based on conditions i encountered.

This book is not AT ALL what I expected. As others pointed out, the summary sounds like a Sci-fi romance. This is totally not what the book is.

But I loved it.

When her parents died, 11 year old Romy became the commander of The Infinity, a space shift with the mission to create a community of humans on Earth II. Flash forward 6 years, and she struggles to keep the ship afloat as the ONLY person on her ship. So when NASA says they're launching a new ship to catch up with her and keep her company. she's eager to meet its crew. Then she begins receiving emails from J, the lone crew member out of stasis on the other ship, The Eternity.

But something doesn't feel right and eventually, all sorts of crazzzzyyyy stuff happens that makes he wonder about J, Earth, and her future.....which seems further away than the planet she's never lived on.

There's so much that went on in this book, that I may have to read it again, but I liked how unique Romy is and how she handled the situations thrown at her. Breadcrumbs of the past are peppered throughout the story, making me unable to put it down until I knew what was going to happen.

Like Romy, I was on edge and waiting for the world to shatter.
And I didn't see the end coming.

I WOULD 100% RECOMMEND.

Okay mid-period Laurel and Hardy short. Stan and Ollie are hired by regular antagonist Walter Long to help kidnap men to crew his allegedly-haunted ship; perhaps inevitably, they end up press-ganging themselves. Better not mention the ghost to the captain...
About as close to over-plotted as you can get with a L&H movie; some good stuff near the start but it gets a bit busy as it goes on - too much story, not enough slapstick. Concludes by recycling the (slightly gruesome) closing gag from the same year's Going Bye-Bye! Has its moments, but not as many as some other films from the boys.
