Are you one of those who INSISTS on stringing up a captain who refused direct orders to KILL INNOCENTS? Yes I know there was a very good reason, doesn't change the nature of the orders at all.

Hell, in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't even seem to have mattered that much in the end, with all major infected ships accounted for and the biophage effectively wiped out, the only negative consequences for his actions are a list of "could-have-happened, but didn't".
We don't know that (and probably never will), possibly not getting that one evacuation ship might have slowed them down just enough that we could have saved Kadesh (after all we were only a month late). Not that it's very likely, mind you.

Hey folks, a quick thought on the Amarki and Betazoids becoming full members. Currently as advanced affiliates, they need D0. Do we have the ships available to provide D6 once they reach 500/500?
Amarki Station covers 5 of the defense requirement for the Amarki Sector, and the Outpost over Betazed should cover some of the requirement till we get a Starbase up there. And Betazed is in the Sol Sector so it may have lower defense requirements.

Also we've got a bunch of ships under construction and may get some of the Amarki/Betazed ships.

Short answer: yes. Currently the Klingon border is way over its requirement. The Kumari alone could hold it down. We've also got a Cosntellation and a Centaur about to come out of the docks, as well as another Excelsior class at the end of 2307.
 
Is there a link somewhere to whomever got to write up the Amarki, Rigellian, Betazoid and other ships? I can't find it in the threadmarks.

Actually, @OneirosTheWriter I know you're busy with a ton of things, but when you get a chance could you add the stats for the Romulan heavy warbird to the Ship Classes? We got it in one of the log entries, but it's not anywhere else. Or for that matter, all of these other ship stats referenced above as well.

I actually feel kinda bad about Commander Ajam, right now she's pretty much "Commander Generic XO", when I envisioned her as this very adventurous, very curious person who is more physically inclined than most Starfleet Officers.

I think she might be most underdeveloped of the Enterprise senior staff. I'm going to have to work more on bringing her personality and traits out more in coming works.

Starfleet Personnel - Discipline

The Court-Martial of Captain Michael O'Hara has been handed down. Commodore T'Maris has found that the Captain was in dereliction of his duty when he refused to fire on the SS Skegal, allowing its capture by the Biophage. However, in recognition of the difficult circumstances, and noting that Starfleet's traditions should never find it unseemly to refused to fire on a civilian vessel with survivors aboard, O'Hara has been demoted to Commander, rather than discharged from Starfleet. Commander O'Hara has now been transferred to Starfleet Personnel Command.

Starfleet Academy - Steering Meeting

You travel to meet Certunn Guk at the Starfleet Academy and his staff, as well as representatives from the Explorer Corps, Seruk from Starfleet Personnel Command, Federation officials and the like. Truth be told, the meeting itself was dull and actually rather frustrating, as almost any meeting involving a Tellarite tends to be. But what put a smile on your face was the reaction of the new generations of officers, the young cadets of the Academy, who turned out to see your visit, interested in seeing the only active full Admiral of Starfleet. Humans, Andorians, even a few from Orion, or the soon to graduate Amarkians. You loved seeing their enthusiasm, their passion for exploration. It lets you know the future is in good hands.

It makes you start to wonder, just a little, when it might come time for you to pass on the baton to the next generation as well.

The main purpose of your meeting was to change the quotas of the different types of cadet, to better suit the needs of Starfleet. With a certain intake of qualified candidates, you could open up more spaces in some programs, less in others.

And now we know what happened to the captain.
 
We need to do some recruitment drives every now and then. Good thing we know now, and I think the 20 points for swapping out Yamada were still worth it, though not by as much as I expected.
