I Was Thinking

I was thinking

**Preemptive: Yes I know this is dangerous Thunderfoot **

Back to the point

What I have been thinking of a new Rpg on based on a Fighter squadron set in the Star trek Universe post 30 so years post Nemesis aboard a/ an Seraphim Class carrier as a Federation Civil war brakes out.

How will this be different from Midway ? All player will be Pilots or deck crew "So no fleet personal will be all Npc " and the Rpg will be based on the flight deck

Thinking of calling it Star Trek : A Tattered Banner


thoughts ???

One of my favorite lines from the Bob and Tom Show comes to mind here. "Sometimes, the jokes write themselves."

I think it is a great idea. I would like to participate if you'd let me. The proposed name is good but maybe it ought to be a little more, ahem... fighter piloty, lol. Or, since you are describing a Fed civil war, something which reflects the discord and anguish such things are always accompanied by.

Thunder yous all ways welcome as are the rest of the site in this

 

[Zelph]

Sounds like a good idea. And I like the title of Star Trek: Of Wounded Wings. Fits with the idea of fighters methinks.

 

[Hellkite]

I'm kind of fond in truth of Star Trek: Of Wounded Wings

What to the rest of you think ???

Spoiler: These were what I was listening to when I came up with this Ideal thought I would share it :)

[Hellkite]

I'd love to take part in this! I have no knowledge about fighter things though, that might possibly require some researchingz on my part...

It will be needing more than just pilots

non pilot rolls

Maintaince Officer of Squadron Deck / hanger boss

Flight surgeon

AEW&C / Carrier Command Information Centers (CICs) officer

Hmmm.... I can imagine it now

Star Trek: Crash of Ascension

Plot:
The Federation has over-expanded throughout the beta and Alpha Quadrants. The Romulans and Cardassians now being the newest members of the Federation. However being so busy with border-line issues and conflicts with Rogue Dominion and Breen forces. The Reman/Sona alliance sneaked into the heart of the Federation and destroyed Earth and poisoned Vulcan, Andoria, and Betazed with Thelaron radiation making the planets indefinitely uninhabitable.

Civil unrest has shaken the foundation of the Federation. Panic sets in as they try to resettle members of the now "homeless" races of the Federation with new home worlds. Eventually the Federation collapses into several divisions. Humans, Andorians, Vulcans, Betazed, and Trill being grouped as "Wanderers"; The Romulans, Klingons, and Cardassians seperate themselves taking more territory from the Federation than ever before. And the Wanderers now fight to survive as the other races group together to slaughter the weakened races seeing them as cursed with weakness.

The Cardassians and Klingons are at war. The Romulans and the Breen are at war. And all the while, the Borg are waiting for the right moment to assimilate the Alpha Quadrant.

"The Federation has over-expanded throughout the beta and Alpha Quadrants. " That part of it you got right , but the rest you just wait and see... I'm still working on the outline

I 'm ok with

But the weapon mods that your are talking about will not work they need to be Federation stander that and the fighter as a limited to the amount of power it can supply

But the fighter will have different load outs just like in real life Example the

torpedo list

Micro-Torpedoes

Due to the size of fighters, they are too small to carry full-scale torpedoes. So back in the early 24th century when fighters came into production, Starfleet engineering and Starfleet tactical worked together for a substitution.

The result was the Micro Photon Torpedo. Since them Starfleet has produced Micro-Quantum’s and the new experimental Micro-Plasma torpedoes.

Micro-Photons

First designed in the early 2300's, the Micro-Photon has changed in recent years to be more powerful and now has a greater yield.
Yield = 15 Iso Tons

Micro-Quantums

Not long after the introduction of the Quantum torpedo, Starfleet designed and produced a Micro version to be fitted on fighters and assault runabouts.
Yield = 28 Iso Tons

Micro-Plasmas

After the peace treaty between the Romulan Star Empire and the Federation, Starfleet Engineering and the Romulan Science Academy started working on co-ventures together. One of these ventures was the creation of the Starfleet Plasma torpedo. Based on Starfleet Photon and Romulan Plasma technology, the Plasma Torpedo has the power of over twice that of a Quantum torpedo. The Micro version has slightly more power than a ship sized Quantum torpedo. Due to the power, these torpedoes are only fitted to fighters that are undertaking special missions.

I am well aware of it. And as a downside, the ships are more sluggish because of the heavier alloy. And also Cruising warp is down to 8.8; Max is 9.1; and Emergency is 9.5 for 1 hour. I also was thinking of having it that because of the large energy turnover the EPS conduits to the weapon systems have a higher "burnout rate" and they need to be replaced more frequently.

Disruptors are likely to be borrowed from the Romulans under the same treaty as the Plasma torpedo trade. While damage is higher, hit chance is lower and range is shorter. The Gravimetric torpedoes would consume so much energy that it would have a 90 second cooldown and there is a 3 second locking process making them rather useless against fast and small craft.

These would be sort of like bombers, heavy hits but they would have significant downsides.

 

[Hellkite]

From a PM to USS_Excalibur just to keep everyone in the loop

As I posted were be going with standard weapon load outs when it comes to weapons, with that said latter down the line when our supply chain is cut off we will see about going to more exotic load outs but at the start let keep to the basic.

USS_Excalibur if you want I can give you a bomber flight we can do that

You would be flying a

Translightning Long Range Starfighter XF-38

she is a Strike Fighter craft​

W007! That is nice! I'd like to have that for Armada II as well. ^^

 

[Hellkite]

So we have a deal then your Flying one of the Translightning Long Range Starfighter XF-38 then

[K_merse]

I was wondering if I could play not a flight command but only a pilot in a wing first. I'm portraying myself as a youngster pilot
By the way, will the game a bit similar to BSG? With the title of "Wanderers" and a few races who are hunting us, it's really feels like a Battlestar Trek. Which is fine, I'm just searching the general feeling of the game.

 

[Hellkite]

I can sum up the Feeling to this game as... In the end it's all about what you stand for and what you will fight for when the world falls around you. should be fun

K_merse and yes you can be a fresh out of flight school if you wait

----------------------------------------------

Stander officer Duty uniform for a Fighter pilot

Stander Enlisted and (NON) Flight officers Duty uniform for deck crew

 

[USS_Excalibur]

I was thinking of having a character of this species that I'd play as. (Unnamed species of course)

He would be one of the pilots who does the rather unorthodox actions of the flight. And rarely comes back home without battle damage on his ship.

 

[EAS_Intrepid]

I have also been invited and it is not much of a surprise, what my new job will be.

I wanted to wait till every wing has a commander, but it seems that it won't happen So I'd like to join to Charlie Flight as a newbie pilot.

No worries the list is expandable K_merse your new flight commander is Adm_Z


I have a small bit of home work for you

For all rpg member you need to come up with callsines for yourself
