Nice idea mate, so this runs along side Midway or does it replace it?

"The Federation has over-expanded throughout the beta and Alpha Quadrants. Leavening Starfleet to fin on ships and man power to cover the "Entire" Federation properly. The effect of this as alienated the newer members state and colonies from the Core worlds with a cry of out right neglect and abandonment .As the outer edges are more or less lawless zones subjected to raids. This is compounded by Starfleet consumption of massive resources which are mainly coming from the colonies, which only adds to the anger . That anger has polarized the Council to the point that nothing is getting done do to partisan infighting.


So this it the prouder keg we find our self seated on "Anyone got a match "

No matches....will pulse fire do ?

Sounds like the feds are wide open, plenty of area's with no protection and a almost rebelious population.....perfect chance to wage war

A Prolog By Thunderfoot


"And so it begins"

Jarred was angry. And he no longer cared whether or not the StarFleet officer saw his anger.

"We work hard out here on the frontier! Building a life. Starting a world. Making things work. We pay our taxes, too. Unlike so many who sit and wait for the Federation to give them everything. And for what? The Orions come and take what they want and then Starfleet shows up a week later and says, 'Sorry. We'll get them next time for sure.' We send people to the Council to speak on our behalf and they get passed around from this bureaucrat to that aide to the other office until they run out of money or they give up and come home. The week after, the Nausicaans land and take all our livestock. Did I mention they shot and killed a seven year old boy because one of the animals wasn't livestock but his pet and he tried to keep it? Oh yeah, before I forget, someone told them Starfleet was enroute. The Nausicaans nearly died from laughter. Bet that didn't make it into the report to Starfleet HQ, did it? You 'Fleeters live a life of ease and comfort and minimal responsibility aboard your ships. Someone else builds them. Someone else pays for them. And you do nothing at all to earn your keep!

Well, it's past time someone else learned from the past as well. Remember when the Federation gave Federation planets, and their citizens, to the Cardassians? To 'keep the peace because war is a bad thing?' How'd that work out for Y'all, 'Fleeter?. Not very well at all as I recall. Y'all ran around like your butts were on fire and your heads were catching. Meanwhile, the Maquis made a stand. Bloodied the Spoonheads' noses too. And for what? So Starfleet could brand them terrorists and criminals! If anyone had been bothered to really listen to what the Maquis were saying, Starfleet might have had enough time to wake up before the war started. Instead, while those on the frontier starved and died, the Federation gave aid to the Cardassians!"

"Mr. Jarred, it wasn't quite like that. You don't underst-"

"Too bloody right, I don't understand, Boy! I don't understand why we ever thought the Federation would ever lift a finger to help us. After all, there's the Klingons and the Romulans to appease as well. Paid for with the taxes you squeeze out of us! Past time someone did something about this, it is. And we're going to. If the Federation cannot help us defend what is ours then it is time to run the Federation off this planet! Here, this is a document, signed by nearly two thirds of the population of Beta Arians VI, declaring ourselves independent of the Federation from this moment forward! From now on, we'll be the ones making the decisions about ourselves. From now on, we'll be the ones deciding who gets what from our hard work! From now on, we'll be free of the leeches and apologists and weak minded who are afraid of their own shadows!"

"Mr. Jarred, that document is why I am here. Secession from the Federation is illegal. I am hearby placing you under arrest for violation of Federation Code Twelve A."

" I don't think so, 'Fleeter. Not today. I'm no longer part of your Federation so your laws no longer apply to me!"

Jarred pulled a comm link from his belt and spoke.

"Mike, Jarred. All done up there?"

"Jarred, this is Mike. The ship is ours. We have three dead and about a dozen wounded."

"D*&m! Who are they?"

"Asa, Janet, and that Bolian guy, Paguili."

"Alright, Mike. Where are the 'Fleeters?"

"Not but about eight or so left, Jarred. They put up a helluva fight when they finally figured out we weren't hauling quadrotriticale up to them. But by the time we had control of Engineering, they just gave up. Same as they always do."

"Okay, Mike bring them back down to the surface and we'll figure out what to do with them and this one later. Can Serena get into the mainframes?"

"Yeah. Says her 'starfish' program bored right through the security protocols and lockouts with nary a hitch. When I said, 'The ship is ours.', I really meant it."

"Mr. Jarred, stop this now. Before it really is too late."

"Already too late, 'Fleeter. Y'all have been eating lotus blossoms while the whole galaxy goes off the rails. We're gonna go do something about it."

 

[Hellkite]

As the Federation falls apart in open civil war,These are the stories of the 79th Fighter Squadron " the Wind-swords " station aboard the USS Seraphim, Join them as they make a stand as they find their answers to the question. What and who will you fight for, when all that you know and hold dear falls down all around you ?

 

[Adm_Z]

You can mark my callsign up as "Gremlin." The original producers of the Zaxxon arcade game were Sega/Gremlin and Sega is a lame callsign, so Gremlin is is.

I am also curious as to which side we are on? Or is that up to us? I was under the impression that our ship had experienced a mutiny or something like that, but I guess maybe not? Is the ship we are on commanded by the 'fleeters or the un-named rebellious faction?


btw, this whole thing sounds like a new-maquis uprising. As such, I present a faction insignia for your consideration.

 

[thunderfoot]

" 'Fleeter" isn't a faction name. It is an epithet. The other side doesn't have a name. I wrote the piece above simply because all stories have a back story. We read about that country and this organization and we think of them as these monolithic blocs where everyone connected to them is exactly the same. The problem is these blocs are made up of people. People who will have their own ideas and agendas. The other side is just a bunch of people who have had enough of empty promises and empty bellies. Jarred is angry with the Federation. This anger was stoked to the flashpoint by years of apparent neglect and ill use. He, like a lot of the frontier people, see 'the Federation' as a long way away from here. The people of Beta Arians VI see Starfleet more as a symbol rather than being made up of people as well. And like all people who are unhappy with something, they focus on the negatives. This time however the negatives are too many and are happening too fast. So like us, Jarred has decided he is going to try and do something about it. Further he has decided the Federation and Starfleet either cannot do anything or worse are not interested in doing anything about it.

Hmmm... I suddenly have the feeling I may be on the wrong side here, lol.

 

[Adm_Z]

" 'Fleeter" isn't a faction name. It is an epithet.

I realize that. but if this is to be a civil war of sorts, then there must be at least two factions. Starfleet, or the 'fleeters as you have christened them, and the unnamed faction. This faction, as you mentioned in your backstory gets some of its principles from the Maquis, hence the logo I made.

From the sounds of it, there are three sides. The 'Fleeters, the guys who want to "fix" starfleet, and then those who want nothing to do with starfleet.

 

[Hellkite]

Were on nether side of the this for a very good reasons I mite add. There are not black and white sides in this Rpg just sades of gray in another words just like in real live.

but here is a faction list


Federation - the Core world of the old Federation with the notable exception of Vulcan Capital world Earth

Colonial Alliances - Most of the outer Secessionists worlds that have taking up arms Capitals Trill and Bajor

the Neutral territories- Secessionists worlds that only seceded from the Federation to stay out of the conflict. " Vulcan is one of them as well as all of her colonies " this is not real a cohesive group they are spread out some time Isolated and a lone

then there is Us

You can mark my callsign up as "Gremlin." The original producers of the Zaxxon arcade game were Sega/Gremlin and Sega is a lame callsign, so Gremlin is is.

Alrighty then, I'll cut back on exercising the grey matter so I am more in compliance with fighter jock machismo

 

[Hellkite]

Wait you still have grey matter ?

I thought that they removed that back when you were a MEPS all those years ago. You know so you would sine a enlistment contract with the words Army and enlistment on the same page and by sine I mean make you mark .

Stander protocol in accordance with Army recruitment FMs and TMs

LOL It's good to know were friends Thunder at lest we know when we rip each others guts out we care

I am fairly certain all those nine G turns may have permanently affected the blood flow to your one remaining brain cell, Gen'Rul, Suh.

FYI, I turned down OCS twice. Along with a merit appointment to West Point. Had the smarts to be an officer. Had a 130 General/Technical score on the ASVAB test and ranked in the 97th percentile overall. However, watching my Company Commander and the Colonel only get to play with the tanks once in awhile rather than every day like I got to made me realize I wasn't going to enjoy soldiering as much if I let the Army talk me into becoming an officer. That G/T score got me tagged by DA for all sorts of interesting things all throughout my career. Had I known then what I know now, I would have missed a few questions on purpose, lol. Don't care to mention this often because it sets the wrong tone with most people. My personal view of me is I am just over average.

 

[Hellkite]

I can see your reasoning on not going the officer path with in the Army.

I'm happy to say that was not the case in the Air force for me. There we the officers were the one that got the better toys so to speak and the enlisted got to work on them. Yes there was mountains of red tape and paperwork but I my real office for most of my military life was my cockpit, as apposed to an Army officer mounted and tied to a desk for most of theirs.

 

[Hellkite]

I would like Feed back on the Ships motto

USS Seraphim NCC-90001

Ship's motto : Sub alas victoria erit composuerunt
"under these wings victory will be forged"​

[K_merse]

Where can I find character pictures, or who could make me one?
And what does an "Ace" means if you're a fighter pilot?

 

[Hellkite]

Where can I find character pictures, or who could make me one?
And what does an "Ace" means if you're a fighter pilot?

A flying ace or fighter ace is a military aviator credited with shooting down several enemy aircraft during aerial combat. The actual number of aerial victories required to officially qualify as an "ace" has varied, but is usually considered to be five. The few aces among combat pilots have historically accounted for the majority of air to air victories in military history.


I can make pics but if you have a STO you can generate your own pics there
