STO Screenshot Competitions November 2021- Winners Announcement

Congratulations to all that placed and to all the entrants! This was a tough one to judge in some respects - there were some excellent screenshots, and both Darth and I struggled with the placement in this one.

One thing this has taught myself, and I hope that you can see that too, is that STO is not only a game for us as a diversion, but every once in a while it can also be used as a visual tool for your own writing. A lot of the ships available in Star Trek Online are ships that Bravo Fleet offers out for role-playing; it would be foolhardy to ignore a resource like this for as long as it is around.

Fleet Command Report: A new Admiral of the Fleet

To the members of Bravo Fleet: I’ll keep this one short, I promise. First, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the part of the world who celebrates in late November. Eat until you can’t eat any more. Recently I convened a meeting of the Small Council Senior Staff, minus one person. Something I had been thinking […]

OCS: Recruitment

Hello everyone! The Office of the Chief of Staff is having a recruitment drive to expand our team and I am looking to have a staff who are able to help manage one of the many busiest departments in our great community.  The OCS is in need for someone to become Bravo Fleet’s new Deputy […]

November 2021 Operations Report: RPGs and TF Staff

This is going to be a relatively long announcement, describing some current issues with RPGs, some changes, and my plans for the future. So, grab a cup of coffee and brace yourself for some pontificating. I have been thinking a lot about what the purpose of these offerings is and how they can best support […]

Gaming Office Updates – November 2021

We haven't had a good old-fashioned competition in a while, have we? Well, fear not. Our intrepid Gaming XO, DarthCrusader, has put together a little beauty shot competition within Star Trek Online. We have two going - one for KDF ships in specific, and one for Starfleet ships. We do have a rule for no vanity shields, to keep it a bit more level of a playing field so that all can participate.

Internet Office Update – RPG Applications!

A lot of our work in the Internet Office is to improve services and activities offered by other departments, so it isn’t often that we get to make an announcement about new changes! We’ve done a lot of work to BFMS over the past few months and I’m happy to say that we’re continuing to […]

OCS Update – Competitions, Ribbons & Mentors!

“Ladies and Gentlemen, meet the Rubions.” spoke Commander Trecia Wroht. From the front of her lecture hall, the professor for cultural anthropology on Mellstoxx III shared her enthusiasm as a rotating holographic representation of the Rubion species appeared beside her. A relatively tall and broad shoulder figure appeared. Humanoid in appearance, the Rubion man wore […]

New Academy Module – Character Creation Program

I'm pleased to (finally)  announce that I've opened a new academy module for self-enrollment: the Character Creation Program!

Fleet Command Report — October 2021: The Great AWOL Purge Edition!

Hello members of Bravo Fleet: As we approach the best holiday of the year, Halloween, we’ve also been very busy with other housekeeping chores in Bravo Fleet since the end of the Fleet Action! You’ve heard a few times about an “AWOL system” which would be a way of parsing active and inactive members throughout […]

Incoming Ship Detected

I don’t know about anyone else, but I enjoyed the hell out of Season 2 of Lower Decks. Best Star Trek in two decades, in my opinion. Old Trek fan ruminations aside, the Lore Office is pleased to announce some updates to our Starfleet ships, courtesy of some long-thinking, hard work, serious nerding, and canon updates from the latest […]

Update to the OCS Policy

The office of the Chief of Staff for the fourth fleet was a large semi-circle room that showed an impressive view of Mellstoxx III below Starbase Bravo. Sat to one side in one of the many armchairs, Rear Admiral Bennet was trying to read current requests coming in from various task force leaders when his […]

Communications Office Updates

Slowly but surely, Rear Admiral Robert Dowd made his way towards the holo-briefing room. Not much to talk about at today’s briefing, aside from continued questions surrounding the recent Omega… issue. The press can never let something mysterious go, one just has to wait them out until they forget or something new comes along. While […]
