STARFLEET COMMAND QUESTIONS
Minnow asked SammyGM how members could obtain the games supported by the Reserves. SammyGM replied that Elite Force and RPG-X could both be obtained via the UFP EF Launcher. The other games supported by the Reserves are no longer in print and may be difficult or costly to obtain.
Solace asked what ESF Black Ops does. Begotten responded that the group has two main goals, the first was to test new high level content on Tribble and report on it, the second was to tackle high level content such as No Win Scenario. There has been a lack of challenging content for some time which has hindered Black Ops however Delta Rising should hopefully help with this.
