USS INCURSION
by Jen Thomas
Well, the Incursion launched about a month and a half ago. We have only recieved one crewmwmber besides the Captain and myself. If we can get a few more crewmembers (preferably 5), we could get something going! Captain Colvin is currently away and I do not know when to expect his return. I am the Executive Officer, Commander M'rosa Krenn. I am in charge of the ship's website, so I can add you post haste. Problem is that Captain Colvin is in charge of the e-mail server on Yahoo. So if worse comes to worse, I will just create a new one and add everyone. So I invite all of you to take a look at http://ussincursion.startrekrpg.org/ Hope to see you soon!
B5 CRUSADE: RESURRECTION
by Al Hocker
After a lot of recruiting, the Excalibur is finally ready to begin its first mission 'Through the Fire', to investigate ancient ruins that could hold the key to the cure for the Drakh plague. However in order to gain access, the crew must make a dangerous alliance with a notorious war criminal.
Plans for future missions include discovering the truth behind the destruction of the EAS Cerberus and revealing a terrible secret about EarthForce.
USS LEVIATHAN
by Ian Barker
The USS Leviathan-A is still around, but has been placed into a stasis field until I hand the Taurus back to Jarrett. We have finally found out about what has happened to our holographic crew member Ensign ASHER.
A word from the Captain
The Leviathan has reached the end of it's life and so I have made the decision to complete the current season and close it down. As for what I do next I have no idea, but there are three ideas in progress (One which becoming a website and the other two are just ideas.)
As soon as I have made my decision, I will be letting everyone know.
USS TAURUS
by Ian Barker
As some of you maybe aware, Jarrett took a short leave of absence and has left the USS Taurus in the hands of myself and Rich. I hope that between us we can continue to keep the ball rolling so that by the time Jarrett comes back the Taurus will be in the middle of a meaty storyline.
So far the Taurus has only just started on it's first big adventure, involving both the Dominion and a group of rogue Jem'Hadar controlled by a very shady Vorta. The rogue Jem'Hadar and their master are well organised and supported, but so far we have not seen by whom.
If these Jem'Hadar rebels manage to gain more support within the Gamma quadrant, they could become a threat to both the Dominion and the Federation. But there is also the matter of the two Federation scientists they kidnapped and again so far we have not seen for what reason they were taken from Juno III. And the Federation cannot take everything the Dominion tell us as gospel, could they be hiding something from the crew of the Taurus, for the moment we must trust them in seeking out and destroying these rebels.
USS EAGLE
by Richard Merk
The Eagle is currently nearing the end of her first mission, "Quantum Dreams", and what a mission it's been! We've met Vulcans, Klingons, flying rhinos and dragons! Come face-to-face with herds of hopping buffalo, knights in armor, dopplegangers and a burning bush! We've fought our way through an army of crystal warriors, a forest of bladed plants and swarms of giant spiders. And now we've discovered the source behind everything - the inevitable TOS sentient-but-malfunctioning super-computer! Lives have been lost (what else are redshirts good for...) but our goal is finally in sight.
The crew has been great, putting out nothing but fine posts. A captain can't ask for a better bunch of writers. If anyone wants to sign up to the mailing list (you don't have to actually play on the Eagle to sign up) then go to the web site and click on JOIN.
What's New Pussycat?
Do the Timewarp!
After lying in stasis for eons, the very first RPG of the Deep Range Fleet, or Burgosian Innovations, as it was called then - the USS Virgo - has seen renewed activity on its web site. Season 1 has been refurbished, along with a synopsis written by Jovo himself, and the Season 2 episodes have been newly uploaded. Seasons 3 and 4 will be available soon. So visit the Virgo web site and see where it all began!
