Slamming the Nails into the Coffin
With the
Federation Star Fleet hard pressed in the west, the Klingon government made large
payments to the Romulan Star Empire to attack from the east. Savaged from all sides,
the Federation would be sure to sue for peace. Or would they? The Gorn are not
prepared to leave their ally alone, and the Federation does not go down without a fight.

Let's You and Him Fight!
While not direct participants in frontline
combat, the Tholain Holdfast found itself caught up in the progress of the war. Read

The Hard Decisions and Why I Made Them
Some decisions were harder to make than others,
and might make for results you don't expect. Here are some harder decisions I had to make
and good reasons for you to flame me.
This is the Way the World Ends
While there is no reason your prosecution of the war should
follow the historical progress, looking at the historic outcome may help
prospective admirals choose their strategies. Herein you will find all
the information you need to take part in the war.
Changes
These are the
changes I've made to the fleets from the original game.
