If the player's character is guilty over his actions during the war I hope his actions were at least Sisko levels of moral uncertainty, if not worse. The guy was mentioned as being somewhat Kirk like, at least in his taking care of things in person attitude, and if, like Kirk, he can't hear people over his own awesomeness then he isn't going to question his actions either, unless they as bad as previously mentioned. Anyway, it sounds interesting.
I'm hoping for little to no book influence, they tend to be bad, and I don't care if the story doesn't lead into Star Trek XI. I don't need it to, and a connection like that, or any outside connection, except pertaining to canon characterization, doesn't concern me as much as the story. And, getting the technology right, and the style of story right. I find the old stand alone stories tend to get the story the most right, despite egregious inaccuracy even in characterization, while the new series style books seem to do, well, I don't know what they're thinking. Actually, in one book the bad characterization of Worf was actually somewhat good. It seemed to be based on a character bio or watching on his first episode, rather than anything that would have been up to date for him. It resulted in a... Well I would have to check, but it was enjoyable. It might have been Devil's Heart, or the one where they find a Preserver planet in a normally impassable Nebula.
