Wow, where do I begin. Well, it all began one night when I started jonesing for some text-based fun again. I hit TMC, referred by a friend of mine, and typed in Star Trek. This one just sorta stood out. I went, I saw, I was conquered.

The level of detail that ATS uses is just phenomenal. I never thought that a text-based game could use 3D space. You get that in ATS. Like person-to-person combat? It's supported with weapons ranging from daggers to phaser rifles (maybe more!)

Most of the ships seen in the shows and films are here, and some new ones that we came up with ourselves to fit our needs. Shields, cloaking, it's all very detailed, with a great system for having multiple people run a ship efficiently.

Not a combat twink? No problem, RP is /heavily/ encouraged. The royalty are always coming up with new plots, and they try to include as many different empires as possible when they make 'em. What's an empire? Play as one of nine different organizations. Federation, Klingon, Romulan, Ferengi, and more!

ATS's beginning was set 25 years after the DS9 ep. 'Way of the Warrior', but we've come a long way since then, and have a very unique history under our belts. Some of our characters have been around since the beginning, some are just a few weeks old. All work together to make this, in my opinion, the BEST TrekMU* out there! So come on by and check it out! Worst that happens is we addict you more than Everquest(tm)!
