I have played the Ferengi's role in a cool game, and as the Ferengi did things that never did before playing against humans (for example, try to create a war between 2 of my allies using the Comm Mimic, to get some profit taking a side later...).
Yeah, and the Romulans suffered from that attack.
But, it was an RP game, so I wouldn't expect you to do it again, unless you were RPing Ferengi again.

I started out doing the roleplaying but rapidly found out that the chance of winning from that view point is not good. I enjoy winning but I also enjoy playing a good game. The Fryon motto ( It's not if you win or lose it's how much pain you inflict along the way) really strikes a cord with me. Personally I think the best game is when all players come to the conclusion that no one can 'win' and peace reigns in the galaxy. However there is great satisfaction in crushing an opponet that you could never beat before. I am looking forward to the league standings if it is workable.
