Welcome Aboard the USS Vendetta, home to some of the finest officers to serve in Starfleet. Fighting in the front lines of the Cardassian war the Vendetta is tasked with the defending the Federation from those who would seek to destroy it. The Vendetta is not only a ship of war, but a ship of exploration voyaging to both new worlds and returning to those worlds devastated by the Borg. Now as a new day dawns once more on the alpha quadrant those who stand in the face of danger and oppression fight to win the day, and drive off those who would threaten our way of life. Unlock the secrets of the past, and discover the greatest treasures of a quadrant ripped apart by war. The Vendetta is not for the weak or the timid. The Federation has changed, the stakes are higher now than they’ve ever been before. Do you have what it takes?

Alright Guys, first things first, as of now there is a fleet wide roll call in effect, this is being posted across all ships so that anyone interested in remaining active/returning to activity has proper notice and the opportunity to do so. Given how long overdue this is, you will have two weeks to respond to this roll call on the boards (1/17/12 to 1/31/12). Please include the following information
Name:
Active Characters:
Positions of interest:
Estimated Available activity (Posts/Week):
For active characters, please list characters you intend to keep going into the next mission on the Vendetta/characters you would like to bring to the Vendetta from other ships. If you wish to maintain your existing characters on their current ships once they are transitioned EFFs you will be free to do so, but that does not need to be reflected here.
Positions of interest should be pretty straight forward, what would you like to do, again on the Vendetta. Other ships will be handled separately. For now I¡¯m going to restrict people to one senior staff position and up to 3 junior office/enlisted positions, depending on interest shown in returning this may change.
Please be realistic in your estimate, we can all say we¡¯re going to post ten times a week, that doesn¡¯t make it true. I¡¯d just like to get an idea of where we¡¯ll be as a fleet starting next mission.
Now onto how things will be handled next mission. As I stated above positions are open to all interested personnel. You may hold one senior staff position and up to 3 junior office/enlisted positions. Each character should have a biography in line with the seniority of the desired position, so no big changes there. I will work with you guys to hammer out a system for posting going forward to avoid confusion related to posts featuring multiple characters written by the same person.
If you guys have questions/comments please post them in the Fleet Announcements thread as I¡¯d like to keep the roll call thread as clear of derails as possible. With any luck I¡¯ll be able to bring in some fresh meat in the next few weeks, and we can get the old girl back on her feet!
We will have a week of R and R from Sunday the 5th to Sunday the 12th followed by a brief intro to the mission, and then right onto mission 16, Phantom. Congratulations to Lieutenant Commander Adrian Thuzzle, who received the Simmer of the mission title for mission 15!
