I originally thought Luna was a Constellation, but several people put her down as a Constitution with no one saying otherwise.

Can a GM confirm whether Luna is second line cruiser (Constitution-B) or a garrison cruiser (Constellation-A)?

I just didn't notice this until now. All prior evidence indicates it's a Constellation-A.

TBG Ship DB says the UES Luna is a Constellation-A.

2310.Q1 Ghost & Whispers has a UES Luna, and there weren't any Connie-Bs commissioned by then:

And it's a Constellation-A, not a baseline Constellation, since UESPA finished refitting all their Constellations by 2319:

You know, I bet the Cardassians were also invited, considering they're setting up an embassy on Earth:

Sure, among many other embassies. But Spock isn't going to be focusing on all of them at once. I figure that given his past history with Klingon diplomacy in STVI and future history of Romulan diplomacy in TNG, and the rather sensitive post-war tensions between those two polities, that it makes sense that they would be the ones he'd be likely to focus on for the moment.

I hope the mission control by-play was understandable. I tried to keep things balanced between being meaningful without sounding like the control room team were in constant "As you know" mode.

I found it enjoyable, informative, and understandable.

I am, admittedly, a geek/nerd who's a sucker for details and exactly that sort of military/pseudo-military control center scene.

    Board of Inquiry into Performance of Tellar Sector Fleet

    Captain Sealk's review into the actions and performance of the Tellar Sector Fleet encompassed actions of local leadership, Starfleet leadership, levels of resourcing, cooperation with local authorities, and anything arising thereof. Asa result of his review, a number of recommendations have been made, including administrative action proffered against a number of individuals. It has been found that garrison levels are undesirably low, but given the demands of the Gabriel Border Zone, a written submission by Vice Admiral Eaton defended these levels. The first recommendation made was for an increase to required garrison values in Tellar Sector. Although not a formal notice, the second recommendation has seen Rear Admiral Hurgok Sagek take a sabbatical for the time being, which has helped mollify Tellar politics. It is a third recommendation that long-term appointments to the Tellar Sector be constrained, as cultural concerns can see a long term negative progression of relationships between local TSF authorities and Starfleet personnel if not refreshed periodically, and the Rear Admiral has been in his position for in excess of ten years. As a result of this oversight, reprimands have been placed against three members of Starfleet Personnel Command.

    Board of Inquiry into Actions of the Crew of the USS Sarek at Ikeigenoi

    Commodore Hayashi Kaito's investigation into the conduct of the crew of the USS Sarek at Ikeigenoi has resulted in no charges proffered to Courts Martial. Administrative action has been recorded against a number of officers and crew of the USS Sarek, with reasons stated as being unsatisfactory performance and unsatisfactory conduct. Captain Samyr Kanil was rebuked personally by Commodore Hayashi, and advised that it was only her sterling record to this point that had caused her to avoid being referred to Courts Martial under charges of Conduct Prejudicial to the Interests of the Federation. In spite of this reprimand, the promotions board has still seen fit to clear the long-serving and successful Captain for promotion to Commodore after the successful completion of her Five Year Mission.

    USS Lightning screeched through Sol space at the relatively reckless velocity of warp two, Earth shrinking to a dot behind them. The sensors had already picked up the two thunderclaps of the Enterprise and Ambassador engaging their warp drives, and now Lightning strained to rendezvous with them in time at Jupiter.

    Inside the ship, yellow alert lights pulsed as Captain Victoria Villeneuve rushed out of a conference room, already suited up, helmet under her arm. She was followed by a shorter man, clearly not as accustomed to moving in the vacuum suits. Villeneuve tapped the new combadge affixed to her chest and the man caught up, "Villeneuve to bridge. I don't care what Starbase 1 says, push us to warp 2.1. I am not going to slow down the Old Lady."

    "I cannot believe this," whined Captain Wolfe of Starfleet Intelligence, "Head over to the Lightning and debrief them on Horizon activity. Transfer over critical intelligence materials. Go home in time to pick up my kid." He shook his head as he adjusted his grip on his helmet, "Should have sent Cristina. Hopefully she's picking Orah up for me."

    "I can always spare an escape pod if you're that desperate." Villeneuve replied wryly.

    Wolfe grimaced as he tapped at the arm console of his vacuum suit, his gait normalizing as he adjusted its fit. "Do I have to be in this thing? I'm more than happy to just run around in my uniform." He watched as some crew loped past, "Can you even sprint in these?"

    "It's my policy on this vessel that crew wear vacuum suits when combat is expected."

    "So I've heard. Though it can't be easy to navigate jeffries tubes either," Wolfe looked up at her, "Maybe I can make some policy that lets me take this getup off? I'm the same rank as you, after all."

    "I am the commander of this vessel, so I set the rules. My rule is to minimize risk." They came to a turbolift door, Villeneuve stopping to let Wolfe pass, "Deck one."

    "And you call yourself Explorer Corps." Wolfe snorted dramatically, "Risk is our business! Enterprise must have gotten soft after I left."

    Villeneuve tapped the STOP button on the turbolift, "Listen, I know it's not what you are used to. But let me be clear -- I don't need this talk on my bridge. If you want to keep this commentary track going, I have quarters ready for you. If you try to remove that suit, I will have Lieutenant Piyra--" The ship's rather intimidating, if cheerful, Yan-Ros security officer, "--Stun you for your own safety."

    The outburst was unusual. Wolfe paused, his eyebrow raised to practically Vulcan standards. Then it clicked for him. Behind her serene mask, Victoria Villeneuve -- Captain at 34, veteran of two wars, and inventor of the Weave that bore her name -- was as nervous as he was. Probably even moreso.

    He flashed a disarming smile. "You won't need her, Captain. With my tactical scores I'm pretty sure Mipek could subdue me. So I'll keep quiet."

    "Ah. Good!" Villeneuve said, relieved. She hit the button to let the turbolift resume, "Not completely quiet, however, because I can use your abilities. I want you running Strategic Ops to assist our coordination with Rear Admiral Nash."

    "Aye, aye, Captain." Wolfe said affably as the turbolift doors wooshed open and they stepped onto the bridge. Villeneuve went right to the Captain's chair, while Wolfe stepped up and behind her to the bank of consoles that dominated the back wall.

    The viewscreen showed the fat globe of Jupiter, rapidly growing in size. The conn reported they had been very sternly told to drop to impulse by Starbase One, to avoid any unwanted interactions with the anomaly.

    Mipek's voice chirped through Wolfe's combadge, "Notice: I have reconfigured the operations monitor for your duties, Captain."

    "So you have. And just the way I like it. Very good." He pressed a button, smirked to himself, and adjusted a bar on the display, "One minor problem, just got to crank up the haptic feedback here. You know, to compensate for these thick gloves." He glanced over his shoulder at Villeneuve, who didn't even deign him with an annoyed glance. He glanced back at the console, scanning it quickly. "Command says the situation will likely involve Tactical operations."

    "Red alert! That means helmet on, Mr. Wolfe," said Villeneuve, pulling hers on and snapping it into place. She turned to face Lieutenant Commander ch'Sukar, the science officer, "Time to breach?"

    "Sensors report ninety seconds."

    The Lightning took position behind the UES Luna, burning hard for the rift.

    "Luna's hailing us," Wolfe reported, "Captain Ming is asking what took us so long."

    "Mr. Wolfe, send a response that includes a proportional amount of sarcasm," Villeneuve ordered.

    Wolfe tapped out a response, snickering to himself. His eyes snapped to a new alert. "Starfleet Command has issued final authorization to transit the anomaly." Wolfe didn't note that they had been flying as if that was a given. "Forwarding final rendezvous coordinates to conn."

    "Lieutenant zh'Taaliq, put us on final approach." Few on the bridge could see it, but excitement danced in Villeneuve's eyes, "Let's see what we're up against."

    If my Beuraucratese is right, that means Tellar wants a higher D requirement, one of our admirals is getting benched as a salt-reduction measure, and we're rotating admirals through Tellar sector command now so that they don't have time to get too annoyed about Tellarites being Tellarites.

    ...does that last thing mean there was an element of negligence in-quest?

    This is over acting unsportsmanlike on Planet Splatoon, right? I guess a formal reprimand is proportionate.

    We can probably absorb a garrison increase without too much problem, but I do note there's nothing about Tellar Sector being unusually active or anything like that.
     
    So Excalibur has two captains now, Acherson and R'Cyo?

    (Also, at some point, Kinichi should really get bumped from a Miranda to something with a decent science score so he can do some crazy deflector dish hijinks)

    The problem with pretending to be an EC member is that you have to be good enough to actually do their job to sell the act.

    It already did. *spooky ghost sounds*

    But seriously, the QMs have said that they're just waiting on the timing of some (unknown) events. So while there's still nothing to make any good guesses off of, it's just a matter of time. They'll show up again, eventually.

    It show's an in-game mechanism that can achieve this result, so, it's not impossible. And Lecarre like bio-technology somewhat? And the other side wasn't eaten by the Biophage (so, solved the problem or never had it).
