New Frontiers: Act 2 Story Updates

We have hit the halfway mark of New Frontiers! Apologies for the tardiness of this update – it’s been a busy week. But not as busy a fortnight as it’s plainly been for you all! The fleet is getting thoroughly stuck into the adventures of the Shackleton Expanse, from the mystery and politics, the diplomacy and the […]

New Frontiers: Act 1 Story Updates

We are through the first fortnight of the 2025 campaign ‘New Frontiers’! The Shackleton Expanse has called, and the Fourth Fleet has answered. Over the last two weeks, Bravo Fleet has delved into the new region’s mysteries, challenges, and opportunities. To help you keep up with the many stories, every fortnight the Intelligence Office will release a […]

New Frontiers Mission Briefing

It has been a long two years for the Fourth Fleet. From the violence of the Dominion, the Borg, and the Vaadwaur, to the political turmoil from the Klingon Empire, and the ascendant rivalry of the Cardassian Union, it has been a time for ships and crews to stand firm to protect and uphold the […]

New Frontiers

The transwarp conduit loomed ahead, the Borg vessel keeping its silent vigil over what had once been a wound in space. Now it was a gateway over which this splinter of the Collective stood vigil. The image of the woman who had once been Agnes Jurati, now a Borg Queen like none other, filled the […]

Intelligence Office Report #6: Roleplaying is Dead, Long Live Roleplaying!

Today we’re making one of the biggest ever changes to Bravo Fleet writing and roleplaying: the end of the ‘traditional’ RPG format. Effective immediately, the old system of GMs running RPGs on starships and starbases under the oversight of the Intelligence Office, wholly separate from their other BFMS commands, will end. Why Change? Under the […]

Intelligence Office Report #5 – End of Shore Leave

Shore Leave is over! After 4 weeks and 172 Stories, our second writing campaign of 2025 has come to an end. This one has been a bit different, a bit experimental – shorter, slower paced, with lower IC stakes and opportunities for members to focus on characters, relationships, and moments over sweeping plots and epic adventure. It’s […]

Shore Leave 2402

‘I’m sorry, Admiral. The analysis is utterly conclusive. There’s no other way.’ Accustomed to updating the highest-ranked officers in Starfleet, the most serious people so they could make the most serious decisions, Captain Styre rarely sounded apologetic. This was one of the few times Admiral Beckett thought he could detect a hint of, at least, regret. […]

Intelligence Office Report #4 – New Staff and What’s Next?

The dust has settled on the supremely successful writing events that were part of the Fleet Action: Nightfall. I know you’re all just about rested, recovered, and eager to drive forward. So let’s do so! New Deputy Recruiting for the Intelligence Office, particularly at a senior level, is very hard. It takes more than just […]

Nightfall Final Update

It’s done. At 884,803 words of individual fiction and plenty more through joint fiction by over 50 members, the stories of the Fleet Action: Nightfall have come to an end. This is the biggest storytelling event in Bravo Fleet history. I could not be more intensely proud of everyone, from the most prolific writers to those who […]

Nightfall Phase 2 Fiction Update

I’m pleased to report that Nightfall continues to be a storming success on the writing front. The second phase of a Fleet Action is always hard going. You’ve been writing loads, riding the initial wave of hype, and this is the long stretch of the marathon. That initial enthusiasm has been harnessed to death, and […]

Nightfall Phase 1 Fiction Update

The past two weeks have been, perhaps, the greatest two weeks of writing in the history of Bravo Fleet. I’m not exaggerating. The opening phase of this fleet action depicting the merciless invasion of the mysterious and dangerous Vaadwaur, a staggering threat to the whole of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, has seen stories, single […]

Announcing Fleet Action: Nightfall

‘I am detecting unusual subspace fluctuations at the edge of our sensor range.’ T’Ren’s fingers moved rapidly across the panel, recalibrating. ‘Different to what we have observed in the Blackout and considerably more localised.’ ‘Should we alert the admiral?’ T’Ren paused. ‘Not yet. It could be a sensor echo, or -’ Her console erupted with […]
