Gaming Updates – September/October 2021

Welcome to a post-Tkon Fleet Action world. It was a good play, and the fact that there was gaming participation was great. I got a chance to read a few stories, and they were quite impressive, too! There is a few changes in the Gaming department. First and foremost, the Star Trek Online Temporal Agent […]

Operation Homestead Launches Tonight!

The day has come for us to begin Operation Homestead! The purpose of this event is to give us all a chance to dive into some activities that will take us away from the epic fleet-wide stories we’ve been working on in the Archanis Campaign and the Echoes of the Tkon Fleet Action to focus […]

Office of the Chief of the Staff – Rank / Promotion Update

Quietly sat in a far corner and away from the rest of the crowd, recently promoted Rear Admiral Zack Marshall-Bennet had his back to the rest of the pub from where he sat. Having a table to himself in The Gate Inn, the brand new Chief of Staff for the Fourth Fleet was using the […]

Canon Updates – the Romulans!

Commander Reyes sighed as a new file popped up on his screen, and took a moment to rub his eyes before reading.

Operation Homestead

October 11th through December 10th Lunch at Vandorin’s Captain Bancroft ran his hands along the immaculately pressed table cloth, looking for something to smooth down or find fault with but he was disappointed.

New RPG Format

For at least the last decade, Nova has been nearly the only game in town, so to speak, when it comes to running a Star Trek play-by-post RPG. It’s a powerful piece of software that has a lot of flexibility in giving groups the ability to manage lots of characters, use custom ranks, and tie posts […]

Echoes of the Tkon: The End

The results are in, the competitions over, the tales come to an end! Or is it, as the Lore Office insists… The End and the Beginning?

This Fleet-wide, galaxy-spanning story was told over a staggering at least 480,000 words, which is over 1900 Service […]

BFMS: Scheduling Posts

Members of Bravo Fleet: Just a quick announcement. As some of you have known, or come to realize, BFMS offers a “scheduling post” option. Using this option for fiction writing does not generate the necessary award nominations for Service Ribbons. I’m not going to require the Office of the Chief of Staff to be tied […]

Echoes of the Tkon: Week 7 Fiction Update

This is it, the penultimate week and the start of the final phase! We’ve had some exciting times here as we approach The End. I feel it is also worth highlighting: these updates only cover Stories that are part of the Fleet Action and that were posted within the set dates. Even if I’m posting […]

Echoes of the Tkon: Week 6 Fiction Update

But first – no longer at risk of overshadowing a weekend of announcements, here it is, the latest storyline summary… Week 6 […]
