Anyone ever heard of this (I found one at a Garage sale today, it's in perfect condition)....
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Board Game: was a two-to-four player game produced by Component Game Systems.
This was a core set (optimistically labeled "1st Edition") featuring playing pieces for the DS9 Federation, the Maquis, Cardassians and the Dominion.
Game play was tile-based and modular, depending on the number of players playing the game. The largest tile map, for six players (presumably when combined with other sets), is formed from 56 seven-hex tiles. Victory could be achieved by either military, economic, or mission-based means.
The game is compatible with Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Board Game, which features the Federation, Klingons, Ferengi, and Romulans, and is presumably compatible with other space-based CGS games, such as their Babylon 5 games.

I have tried to watch the new Hawaii Five-O a couple of times, ughhh, it's just not that good.
Brother Fifth used to keep a list of shows that referenced DS9 or any other Star Trek related stuff. He would occasionally post it them here.

QUARK: With this.
ODO: You're going to hit them with a box?
QUARK: No, this is my disruptor pistol. The one I used to carry in the old days when I was serving on that Ferengi freighter.
ODO: I thought you were the ship's cook.
QUARK: That's right, and every member of that crew thought he was a food critic. If the Klingons try to get through these doors, I'll be ready for them.
(Quark opens the box. There's a note inside which Odo takes and reads.)
ODO: Dear Quark. I used parts of your disruptor to fix the replicators. Will return them soon. Rom.
QUARK: I will kill him.
ODO: With what?

The main characters while in an case crash something that is clearly a homage/ripoff to Comic-Con. They approach a guy dressed in the "latter DS9 half" uniform. The characters call him Kirk and then the guy insulted says he is Cmdr Sisko despite looking more like the Capatain Sisko era.Originally posted by aretood2Jelgate is right

But of course after everyone viewed this episode, and even if the series underwent somewhat of a metamorphosis, it was still true DS9.

Originally posted by the Fifth Race View PostI remember when this episode (The Way of the Warrior) premiered, a lot of DS9 purists were worried if the producers pull all of this off successfully, and without alienating the "true," if you must, fans with Worf joining the cast. I guess they assumed we would associate Worf to much with TNG and Enterprise instead of as the new Commander of Deep Sapce Nine. Personally I was excited big-time when they announced that Michael Dorn was joining DS9 (I always thought Worf was very under-utilized on TNG).
But of course after everyone viewed this episode, and even if the series underwent somewhat of a metamorphosis, it was still true DS9.
The producers knew they were losing their viewers and took appropriate action. From the ratings it's hard for me to say that it worked. Maybe it did. The Fourth season certainly looked like it picked up just a smudge more but the resulting seasons continued a rather steady and matched decline with Voyager.
But from what I've learned Trek has had a lot of competition from SG-1 during it's run...aswell as Babylon 5 and other sci fi shows that wanted a piece of TNG's pie. I don't think we'll see another sci fi show on regular TV ever again. Last year V got a mere 2 million viewers on Primetime TV and it's so bad I rather watch SGU.
