Hot damn Oneiros that's a lot of updates. A full quarter in a bit more than an IRL day.

My tally:

Current Personnel Pool:
Standard Starfleet: 9.35 Officer, 11.45 Enlisted, 3.05 Techs
Explorer Corps: 3.5 Officer, 5.65 Enlisted, 6.6 Techs

For Standard Starfleet, I'm taking into account the following:

2312 EOY: 26.35/35.45/24.05

New ship crewing:
- Renaissance: 3/5/3
- Constitution-B: 3/4/4
- 2 Centaur-A: 2/4/4
- 3 Miranda-A: 3/6/3

Crew casualty replenishment:
- Salnas: 0/1/0
- Endurance: 4/3/3
- Shield: 0/0/1
- Saratoga: 2/1/3

Total: 9.35/11.45/3.05

Starfleet Academy:
Officers (O): 11.60pts (+3.25 Explorer Corps)
Enlisted Crew (E): 16.05pts (+2.95 Explorer Corps)
Science Techs (T): 16.95pts (+2.95 Explorer Corps)

Per my calculations, this is the best possible choice for giving us the crew distributions we need. The Excelsiors are Officer heavy and we build a lot of them, and we already have a good Enlisted supply. Curious why everyone is voting for "no change" on Explorer Corps? Our Explorer Corps crew needs are also officer heavy, you know.

Short-term this is okay, since we lack EC officers and have a bit more EC tech than EC enlisted.

Long-term... Our current EC income ratio is 1.1/1/1 in O/E/T. Switching 0.25 tech to officer would result in ~1.3/1.1/1 O/E/T.

Our Excelsiors have 1.2/1/1 O/E/T cost ratio. The projected Ambassador designs are closer to 1/1/1, though it's still in flux.

We'll probably have to rebalance out officer/enlisted/tech in the future.

Sure. We get to rebalance every 4 years, so I agree we swing back a little more balanced next time around.

How does a Corvette/Frigate/Cruiser system sound?

I don't like the sound of Capital Ship.

Science Corvette, Garrison Frigate, Cruiser flagship etc.

Well, they're only called cruisers because of how we classify them in intel/battle reports.

Switching systems means switching nomenclature used in reports too.
 
Ahhhh! Confusing arguments are confusing. Just keep the old system and be done with it!

    Most other nations already standardize on "cruiser" so this wouldn't work out. Indorians even have frigates for escorts IIRC. edit: Actually it's the Gaeni that have "frigate" for a nearly 600kt ship. Indorians have a "frigate" for a light cruiser it seems like. Apiata Stinger was also described as a frigate.

    I'd reserve "corvette" as an unofficial weight class for sub-500kt ships. Although Risans do have "heavy corvettes" that are nearly 1mt.

    Retirement comes for all men.

    Looks like we don't have to spend those Ppoints after all.

    Lotta movement here!

    Good to see Leaniss taking command of Renaissance. Might see her on the EC board at some point if she accuits herself well.

    And both Eaton and T'Lorel continue to keep pace with each other.

    [Amarkia Syndicate Event - No responders available]
    [Ferasa Syndicate Event - Stalwart unable to pass]

    Captain's Log, CAS Perciar, Stardate 25298.4

    A small Amarkian colony established in the Gamma Iridia system near Selindra has gone missing. About four thousand souls were present, and have now disappeared. Nearby was a great unearthed cavern.

    We are still attempting to discover exactly what transpired here.

    Everyone who thinks this was the Syndicate, we shouldn't assume that. This may have been some kind of weird alien Pied Piper spirit, people getting transferred into another dimension by a previously unknown artifact, etc. It certainly illustrates why it's desirable to have more than one ship per sector, especially under the new system, since ships apparently don't regain the ability to respond to two events in one quarter.

    [I can imagine a tech that lets explorers do that, by the way, because they're supposed to have exceptional strategic mobility. If there were such a thing as T4/T5 Lone Ranger techs I'd imagine that being one of them.]

    Captain's Log, USS Hawking, Stardate 25300.5

    Well, how about that. Romulan warp signature coming in, uncloaked. One of those heavy warbirds, the IRW Devoras, with an Admiral Velin in command. They have asked for passage through to Sol. All sorts of turmoil is gripping the brass, but the Council has overridden Starfleet, and the Devoras is on its way. They will be ushered to Sol IV, Mars, rather than Sol III, but the Romulans believe that is good enough. Apparently, they have some Senators on board, and actually importantly, members of the Continuing Committee.

    Yay! :)

    Well, at least, I think yay. I'll feel bad if the Romulans regard this is the last thing they have to check off their checklist of stuff to do before attacking the Klingons. :( Hopefully we can broker peace. Just having Romulans show up in Sol system to have a diplomatic meeting between top levels of their government and ours is a huge, unprecedented thing that never occurred or came close to occurring in canon.

    I'm hoping that this process includes either negotiated extension of the Neutral Zone to coreward (arguably necessary if relations with the Romulans are to keep their present tone), or (gasp) relaxation of the Neutral Zone rules, which would arguably be a lot better and might signal a permanent shift in Romulan-Federation relations even more important than the upcoming war.

    Sector Commander's Log, Gabriel BZ, Stardate 25304.5 - Rear Admiral Ainsworth

    We are pushing Commodore River's Task Force into subsectors 1g and 2g to see if we can bring a Cardassian force to battle. We want to try to blood them to see if we can restrain their interest in scouting. They have let a few scouting Jalduns retire without attempting to group up, which makes me suspect that Starfleet Intelligence may have erred in suggesting that the Cardassians were not building major defensive emplacements.

    Beyond that, I am of the growing opinion that a Starbase at Collie should be a feasible proposition. It would almost certainly lock in our presence in the Gabriel Expanse and, with the Sguirri outpost, provide a potent springboard.

    The problem I face with trying to expunge the Sydraxians fully from the GBZ is that I am not able to pursue them into Moskar and beyond. That is, there will always be a safe haven they can build out from. What I would like to do is place my own major outpost in that subsector, which would begin to properly block them off ... however, I simply don't have the Engineering ships to do that. Perhaps I can get the Vice Admiral or even the Diplomatic Service to intercede with the Amarki...

    Might get a bonus to that. If we had some kind of ship-shore party support doctrine research T'Lorel would be all over that.

    I am very hopeful that we can negotiate either limited trade or trade with the Sotaw as intermediary. It would be helpful.

    given how rarely escorts seem to be used as escorts, and how using explores as a ship size class seems odd to me the change makes sense to me.
