Fleet Announcements & Ships News:

 

This past month has found Far Point Fleet in the midst of a recruitment push.  Although we didn’t get as many as we hoped we are still trying to post messages on as many boards as we can.  The Admiralty wishes to extend a very big thank you for all the advice and help from everyone that participated.  We also managed to get mentioned on Los Angeles Radio (30 minutes of them talking Trek and looking at our website!).

 

We also want to welcome all the new simmers that have found their way to Far Point.  We’ve already enjoyed many of your posts and like the way you just stepped into things so smoothly.  Again, welcome.

*Horatio Nelson:

 

The Nelson joined with the Alliance in a Joint Mission to the Planet Diligan to diplomatically tell the Diligan's that their planet was on a course of self-annihilation if they didn't correct their atmospheric abuse and start repairs to reverse the global warming effects  that would end their planet's existence in a matter of decades.  The A and HN did the mission peaceably without and casualties.  The Nelson returned to Star Base 25 where Commander Shyloe Townsend-McNitt is to be promoted and transferred to SB25 as Base Commander.

Mission Summary
After returning back to Starbase 25 after a traumatic and yet another exhausting mission at the Murtaw Homeworld and with so much time in their hands, the crew faces new challenges as they battle to resist against the urge of feeling down at the loss of some of a few good officers and the thoughts that linger behind them...

*Excalibur:

 

Monthly Synopsis: 

Enroute to SB25 Dr. Jantika briefly disappeared
from her shared quarters.  She returned shortly afterwards having been
away longer in her perspective then she was gone.  She had no memory
of what happened but had blood all over her and the sword she suddenly
carried.  It was discovered later that the people who were challanging
her marriage were found dead...within a short time of each other while
seperated by great distances.  In their joyous reunion, Cmdr Chauncey
and Dr. Jantika managed to concieve a child. Meanwhile, someone has
sent Re-anmates, the once-dead army of Dr. Jantika's homeworld, to
assassinate her.  Surviving that a vortex opens in her quarters, while
Tyyne and Lefler were interviewing her to determine the best security
measures.
  The voice of a young child mentioning "Aunt Seija" was
heard from within.  All four officers entered the vortex to investigate.
