On Stardate 8769.24 peace reigned in the galaxy. The next day, all hell broke loose.
Star Trek:Dreadnaught
Set approximately 3 months after the events of Star Trek 6, we follow the adventures of the U.S.S. Prudhoe Bay a reclassified Battleship. Her original mission, to engage Klingon Battle Cruisers in large scale combat...alone. She was built covertly and the best weaponry and armor was used to ensure that her mission was a success.In addition to the excessive array of armaments, the Prudhoe bay boasts an impressive hanger level that houses more than 4 dozen phaser fighters and photon torpedo bombers.
Ships of this nature were unheard of for a generation, but the Prudhoe Bay was created to be a self-sufficient fighting force contained within one vessel.With the end of the Klingon/Federation conflict, the Prudhoe bay was reclassified as a "Dreadnaught" and assigned to keep the peace in the now open Neutral Zone.
Dozens of worlds that once belonged to the Klingon Empire are now struggling to maintain some sort of order as the Klingon forces withdraw to the homeworld. Gorn, Romulan, Orion, Ferengi, Cardassian, Tholian, and even Federation interests now vie for the remains of the empire and the potential wealth it could hold. Even more frightening are those powers who push for war between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, in a final attempt to destory the empire all together.
The crew of the Prudhoe Bay must balance the needs of the Empire, the mandates of the Federation, the diplomacy of the Zone and the greed of prospectors and opportunistic factions and maintain peace. They are the thin line that stands between war and peace. |
