Hmmm...you're right...I know Spock does mention the numbers during the
game, but not in test, so I guess test is not a true indication of all
working speech.

I am testing using a stock Star Trek PCB set.

However, I have also played late into the game, and still have never heard
"Sector secured", or "Red Alert"...If they *are* there, we should
definitely add them in.

I guess my point is you probably shouldn't be too worried about not
hearing them on your multigame. Your boards are probably fine.
