Gaming Updates – April 2021

On the 8th of May, we would like to host a little get together in Star Trek Online for the first of what I hope is more game days. This game day would require us to meet up at a rallying point - Discord for voice comms, the Federation Fleet Dranuur Colony for in-game purposes. Most of this would be a getting to know you type vibe, with the goal of getting enough players for five person teams.

End of the Archanis Campaign

‘Task Force 17’s deep space exploratory force was delayed in deploying to the Delta Quadrant because of Archanis. Forces pushing Federation interests in the Triangle, in the old Neutral Zone, on the Cardassian border – doing more than sitting back and playing it safe – were redirected to protect this sector. It was an emergency, […]

Operations Report – January 2021

This update contains a few different topics related to the Operations Department, mostly related to staffing opportunities. As a sort of preamble, I wanted to start with an observation I made a few days ago as I thought about the purpose of this department, as it exists at the intersection of the majority of the other departments' responsibilities, while also having duties of its own. In short, the Operations Department exists to help the membership navigate between the fleet's various offerings through mentorship, ranging from the New Member team, to mentoring Task Force leadership, to coordinating the established roleplaying groups (a.k.a. games, sims, writing groups, and a whole bunch of other jargon depending on your perspective). If you're not sure where to send your question, always feel free to approach your Task Force staff or any member of the New Member team (even if you're not a "new" member), as that's what we're all here for!
