Star Trek - Exploration RP

[g-octavi]

Hey guys. I tried to start this RP a while ago but then i was ill. I'm better now so lets see if i can get it going.

I want to get a crew together, and take a ship on an exploration mission for the federation towards the gamma quadrant.

We will spend some time in known federation space, and then start encountering never before seen planets and species. all members of the RP will be encouraged to come up with new things for us to discover and see.

I think we will have 2 characters per person, one essential (like XO, departments heads) and one non-essential (random ensigns and NCOs) each. i'll post a list of essentials in the OOC and what rank they will be, and the non-essential can be any NCO rank or Ensign.

I'll get more information together about the ship and everything in a OOC if there is interest.

Consider me interested. When would this take place?

i havent set a fixed date yet, but with the class of ship we will be using it would have to be after 2364. I guess i could set a date now :P just a sec while i pop over to memory alpha....

.... ok so i think the best year to set it in will be 2375, the year after Voyager made contact with Star Fleet after being lost in the Delta Quadrant. I might change the direction of travel from the Gamma Quadrant, to the Delta Quadrant in response to the threat of the Borg.

I intend on keeping everything as close to canon as possible, even tho the mission we will be undertaking never happened.

Also, you do realise that's kind of the height of the Dominion War, right? Since it includes everything from just after the First Battle of Chintoka to the Battle of Cardassia Prime. Not the best time to be off exploring.

[mattmanganon]

Agreed, any ship capable of fighting will be sent to the front.

Actually the War ended in 2375, so we could be the first of the new exploration ships after the war, if it makes people happier, we can move it to 2376. the year is not set in stone yet.

The Dominion War was a two-year interstellar conflict fought between the Federation Alliance and the Dominion from 2373 to 2375.

Doing the Stardate calculation puts the penultimate episode of DS9 in November 2375, so...

I didn't say when in 2375 we would start :P

Anyway, like I said, if you want we can go for 2376.
