Part of Bravo Fleet: We Are the Borg

View Mission

USS Redding

Starve the Borg

The USS Franscini has gone missing! The closest starship to their last known position, the USS Redding, has been dispatched to help.

Mission Description

The USS Redding has been dispatched to the system Xi Velorum to assist the USS Franscini, with whom all communications have been lost since a couple of days.

The USS Franscini is found standing in the middle of an ion storm, not quite dead, not quite functional. It doesn’t answer to hails nor can it be scanned. An away team of the Redding will have to go on board.

Yet, somewhere in the dark, the Borg are waiting.
