Siencia Colony was a play-by-email RPG that ran for a number of years in the 1990s and early 2000s. It was set on Siencia, a Federation colony near the Cardassian border, and had a high degree of civilian characters, as opposed to a strictly Starfleet-based game. Originally part of a larger gaming network, Siencia split off to become an independent sim, and maintained unofficial ties with Kal-Dixas Spaceport and other groups. Although the game is defunct, the website still exists (in part).
