Favorite captain for me would be a tie between Picard and Kirk (though, I do think highly of all of the captains).
Kirk, simply because he's... well... Kirk. Growing up with him, almost right from the beginning of the series, on my TV screen since [my] Day 0 adds weight to that sentiment. He was THE Captain for 18 years until Picard came along.
While I was never fond of Voyager, I happen to think Janeway was a pretty kick ass captain. She didn't take crap fron anyone and she was actually pretty strict when it came to protocol yet she also could be very personable and sincere.

Much agreed. Also, it was cool finally having a female captain as a lead character.
I really liked the voyager series. It was a different twist of the rest of them. They are in a different quadrant. Not like all the other ones, and they are a crappy type of class. Who would want an Intrepid (I can not remember what it is called right now.) all by themselves with different species.

Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.

You got it, dude -- Intrepid-class is correct. But why do you think it was a crappy class?
And I'm not sure what you are trying to say with "all by themselves with different species."
Are you talking about the crew? Or that Voyager was all alone in the Delta Quadrant?
That they were all alone in the Delta Quadrant, and all these new species around them that could destroy them. I just dont think the Intrepid class was that strong. Maybe if it was a sovereign or galaxy class. I just think that it would get destroyed faster than the others.

Could be.
But if I remember correctly, Voyager was the first Intrepid-class ship to be commissioned. The Intrepids were equipped with new types of systems, and all of the kinks hadn't been worked-out before they sent it on its first mission.
And ending up in the Delta Quadrant (which was thousands of light-years from Alpha Quadrant, and Earth) wasn't part of the mission plan -- they were thrown there, unexpectedly -- so the crew had to do the best they could with a brand new, untested ship and no one to help.
By the way, did they ever make it back home? I missed the last couple of seasons.
Yes they did. An older Janeway helped them with a type of new armor for the ship. So they went through a borg matrix, and ended up inside a borg sphere. The gateway went inside of federation space, so about 50 ships from the federation were waiting. Expecting an invasion. When the borg sphere came out of the hole, it got destroyed by voyager. That was the last episode I believe.

Thanks, Stonebreaker!
I'll have to check it out on DVD.
I would like to play where you would have a bounty on your head. You are getting chased around by all the races and you must survive on the ground and on a ship. Now, that would be exciting. No allies, just yourself.

I think I'd like to play as a Ferengei and see show much money I could accumulate. Then I go use my fortune to invest in lucrative development projects. It could be more like Sim City but for Star Trek.
Be a Ferengei? I really do not like that race. Dont know why. I just dont. I hate during the game Star Trek Armada, if a ship is badly damaged, they go and take it. I really hate that. That is why I destroy them.:D

Hehe, the Ferengei kick ass. But I've never played Armarda so I didn't know they did that actually.
May I ask you a question. Are you high? I can not believe that you like the ferengi. *Rolls Eyes* p.s. you have to start playing them.:D
The Ferengei are essential to the Star Trek psyche. Quark, Rom, Nog, all those characters were awesome. They're easy to hate, yes. But if you embrace their culture, they're easily one of best races in Star Trek.

And Picard... Total class act.

An "Away Mission" aspect would be neat.
It would be cool to play a Red Shirt, and see how long you could last... with the prize for staying alive past a certain point being a new shirt!
