Star Trek: Armada III begins with the first stirrings of the Dominion War and allows players to take command of five unique factions, the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Cardassian Union/Dominion Alliance, and the Borg Collective. Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before.
This mod is dedicated to the memory of our friend and colleague Chris Knight - 'Amargosa'.
Chris tragically lost his life in a road accident earlier this year. He was a kind, helpful and genuine person, a good friend and a talented 3D modeller. Many of his models have featured in Armada 3. His presence in the modding community will be sorely missed.
With the imminent release of the final instalment of Armada 3, many of us on the team are reflecting on what the project has meant to us. Even with all the hard work, frustration and learning experiences, perhaps the strongest memories for all of us are the jokes, the conversations and debates, and the friendships that have developed over the years since this mod was first conceived. A group of strangers were brought together and became good friends. It was an honour to have Chris as a part of that.
Chris' passing reminds us to remember those things in life which truly matter - our friends, our families, the quality of our lives. Surround yourselves with good people. Hold dear those who love you. Never pass up an opportunity for growth and adventure. A life well lived is it's own reward.
"I rather believe that time is a companion that goes with us on the journey, and reminds us to cherish every moment...because they'll never come again. After all, Number One, we're only mortal."
Beautiful words Tim :)
Very nice guys sorry about the lost of your friend, I wish the team luck on all future projects and be safe for the holidays.
I think my face muscles just went AWOL while reading this. Wow, I did not suspect such a tragic loss and you guys have my deepest condolences. May his soul find eternal glory in Sto'Vo'Kor.
such a loss reminds us of how the biggest limit of life, is also the biggest driving force, our mortality, we should not spend the rest of our life mourning a loss, we better live our lives in the memory of those we lost, to honour their passing, life will go on, let's not forget who we lost, but let's not waste our lives mourning for the rest of our lives, and remember fate only protects fools, little children and ships named enterprise, so unless you're a fool, a little child or a part of the crew of the enterprise, don't count on it to protect you
someone find us a photon torpedo casing, we'll give him a starfleet berial
My apologies for not reading the words and just reading into the screenshot. My deepest condolences. Very beautiful words. Life is so short sometimes, cherish every moment.
lol - no worries, man. We're glad you're looking forward to The Final Frontier. I know we are. ;)
Very well said.
Beautiful words
Your Friend would be very proud of you all. The love you guys have for star trek shines through in this mod.
You have given me and my friends countless hours of entertainment. We have been dreaming of playing a game like this for years.
Very excited for the final frontier.
Thank you again for all of your hard work.
I remember Riker said he wanted to live forever.
