Would anyone be interested in being the crew of my starship?

I am working on a plot idea and will give more info later, but I would like to see who would be interested in a Star Trek RP before I put too much work into it.

the basics would be as follows:

5-7 characters

We play the main crew members

I play the Captain

I guess this would be kind of "Slice of Life" I expect a little day to day shop life experience, but we will also have the kind of things you would expect in an episode of Star Trek; combat, diplomacy, intrigue, mystery and personal storys.

Feel free to post your ideas for plot.

I'm interested but I have to ask; which iteration of Star Trek will you be pulling from TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager?

probably from the TNG, DS9 or VOY timelines (since they overlap in parts), but most likely not to conflict with much that happened at those times.

What ship will be voyaging in? I suggest Prometheus, Sovereign, Intrepid, or Galaxy. If we are going to do something like DS9 show then the Defiant.

These are core positions.
Captain
XO
Chief Science Officer
Chief of Security
Chief Engineer
Chief Medical Officer

Swing Positions
Chief of Nero-sciences (CNS/Counselor)
Chief Tactical Officer
Chief Intelligence Officer
Chief Operations Officer

Just a thought. - I'd be interested in doing this as well. If it's based around a single ship, something like this could support up to 24 players and a single GM, or two. Though the CO and/or XO can suffice in this capacity as well. With each department having three junior officers (ensign grade) the total could come to twenty-four (CNS usually doesn't have more than one, but it could). And of course, Nameless Ensigns, Nameless Crewmen are always available for redshirts. - It would be a pretty well defined command structure, but it could easily work as a large RP or small RP.

Are you planning for this RP to run for just a few weeks, or do you want it to run for a long period of time?
Are you going to be using sources like the TNG and DS9 Technical Manual, Star Trek Encyclopedia, and/or Memory Alpha?
What kind of posting rates are you looking for?
Do you have a ship class/design in mind, or would you be winging it?

Sorry if this seems a little in-depth. I come from Star-Fleet.com and this is in part how our structure is set up. Course I love the Guild too. XD

Chief of Security
Chief Tactical Officer
From what I have seen those positions are almost always the same person, except on DS9 where security acted as police while tactical only came into play while on the Defiant.


See my last post.

True, that's why they're 'swing' positions. They can be, and often are, handled by a central security chief. Operations Officer is usually held by the CE, though a COO like O'Brien can be held by an individual. They operate in a gray area of sorts, so not necessarily something that needs a dedicated player, and it can be hard to play without the right understanding. A CNS/Counselor doesn't have a huge need, but they do have shipboard functions. Also a civilian can fulfill that role as well.

It all kind of depends.

I'm interested in playing the Chief of Security/Chief Tactical Officer or the First Officer.

I don't think I will be participating after all, Teddyinahat is supposed to be participating in another RP I am in but he quit posting without a word. Based on that I can't trust Teddy to follow through on this one.
