Welcome to the USS Washington-E!

Welcome to the USS Washington-E, a post-Dominion War sim. The year is 2386. The Dominion War has been over for several years, but its aftermath is still unfolding. The Federation and the Romulans are the only two major powers, and only the Federation is stable, to a point. The Klingon Empire is still rebuilding and addressing its many wounds from the war, Cardassia is in shambles and occupied, and the Romulans are in far worse shape because of their own misdeeds than they would have outsiders believe. The Federation is now the lone superpower in the Quadrant, a role it neither wants nor enjoys. Exploration has returned, but the dangers of space have never been more pronounced. Welcome to the USS Washington, where danger and adventure lurk around every corner.

The flowers have bloomed, all traces of cold wintery weather is gone, and even the bulk of the Spring rain has passed. That can mean only one thing, May has come and gone. It was a good month, and when I reviewed the posts, it turned out to be even better than I had remembered. Everyone seems to have contributed in some way. As we move into the summer months (at least for most of us), I look forward to seeing what we all come up with in our posting. Below you will find the May awards. As always, I…

Well, April was a fun month. Everyone seemed to participate, but two of our players were particularly active and really pushed things forward. Our mission seems to be moving to its climax, but we saw plenty of great posts surrounding this fun story in April. Below you will find the April winners, and as always, I congratulate them and wish them luck as they represent the ship at the fleet level.

Imik made her way to Jon's ready room to give her results about the shuttle fleet, apart from two type 11's she almost had a full compliment. If she could get those two shuttles then her passenger capability would be 116, right now she only had 104. But imik was missing one piece of information, just what was the total number of family members on board? As she arrived that thought played on her mind, pressing the chime she waited to be called in.

Sitting in his ready room, Jon was going over some last minute details when his…

Shran walked onto the bridge and made his way to his command position. "Time to get underway. Helm, course 80.22, warp 5." He looked to Jon, "Everything is prepared?"

"Yes sir." Jon answered crisply from his XO station. "Shuttles have departed with the civilians and a security detachment."

"Good. Now we go into a danger zone" Shran replied confidently. "Red alert. All hands to battle stations. Sensors to full. Deanna, notify the Ch'Tang we are getting underway. Have them assume its position under cloak."

"Aye sir" Deanna replied simply, firming up as they moved into battle conditions.

"Once more into…

Shran made his way down the corridor towards the astrometrics lab. The computer had indicated he would find both Lt Regen and Inara there, so he suspected they were working on something together. He suspected that Inara was going to show her annoyance at what he had to tell them, but it couldn't be helped. He reached his destination, took a moment, and then entered.

Astrometrics was dark, with the holographic generators on and a deep dive into a nearby sector being looked at. "Excuse me ladies" Shran stated, trying to nicely interrupt them.

Ashlynn whipped around swiftly, like she…

ON

Entering the main shuttle bay, Imik did a quick visual check on the shuttles she needed. The four type 8's appeared ok, the four type 9's also pass the visual check. Moving around she now checked the three type 11's, outwardly all three seemed fine. Imik now returned to her start point and entered the first type 8, as a pilot she was cleared to do pre flight checks. All four type 8's passed their pre flight checks, she now moved on to the type 9's

Another quick visual as she entered then on to the pre flight checks,…

The overhead lights in the intelligence suite glowed in a way that was almost kind. Lieutenant Junior Grade Kate Kono suspected it was intentional, a thoughtful act by the ship’s engineers to counter the cold, analytical mood of the space. Every edge; consoles, chairs, the broad table with its built-in display looked softened, she thought, as if the designers had tried to make the room safe for secrets.

Kono stepped through the hatch, let the pressure seal whisper closed behind her, and took a moment to survey the room. She had the place to herself, as usual. Day shift junior…

Chief Petty Officer Geiger, Aaron R - Personal Log


"We have returned from the Klingon ship, all present and accounted for. She's as good as we can get her outside of time in drydock. It is interesting seeing the Engineering philosophy behind Klingon design as compared to Federation."

"Federation design tends to assume every system will fail, then includes redundant and tertiary components to compensate. The Klingons seem to try and predict specific problems and plan for those specific contingencies, which in my opinion creates some blindspots. Hopefully we helped introduce some more outside the box thinking over there."

"Speaking…

Okay so I literally cannot catch a break. I was just sitting at my desk minding my own business going through sensor reports when this transmission comes through and the computer just accepts it because apparently this guy Karnek knows how to override the block I set up for unwanted calls. And of course Karnek is a Romulan Intelligence officer. And of course he is the brother of Selmek, the Romulan I killed a few weeks ago in self defense. So now I have an actual blood feud on my hands. This is on top of the whole…

We have been inundated with Klingons, my staff working around the clock to save those we can and provide an honourable outcome for those we cannot. The range of injuries and the lust for blunt and bladed forced trauma have caused our surgical suites to be overloaded. The blood on the floor will required industrial decontamination at a time when it is not constantly in priority one use.

The staff are fatigued, but we rally with the hope that we can still stem the tide, making headway through the backlog and a wistful hope that the Klingon's multiple…

Captain's Personal Log


While we were on patrol of the Neutral Zone, we were pulled into an incident. I say we, but I mean that I was pulled into the incident. Many years ago, around the time of the war, Worf introduced me to a strange Klingon woman. Her name was Ba'el, and Worf was seemingly her guardian. He brought her to serve in the Klingon Defense Forces and later had her brought into the House of Martok.

Her very existence was a sin of the Empire, something they would never talk about. most in the Federation do not truly…

Begin personal log.

This is my first personal log on board following our long sojourn on Earth and Vulcan, my injuries are healed, everything is working well and I am used to my enhancements. Looks like the Washington is in a real mess once again but, to tell the truth I have missed it and the people on her, my friends. I think Seth will be glad to get back to work after spending an extended time on Vulcan staying with aunt She'la whilst I worked on getting my mental health back up to strength with T'ghrek. We have left…
