The ship has been returned to her past to begin her new future!

After transiting the Blackhole the Eminence has been diverted back to 2400 by the intervention of a Starfleet Temporal Control ship from the distant future...

She is back to her final shake-down cruise, for some crewmembers there is a strange sense of deja vu as they complete this event for the second time

Then she will be officially handed over to Captain Wells and the crew and given her first assignment, a seemingly simple mission escorting a colony ship to its destination.

This is the first in a series of three missions that will lead us to encounter a mysterious, deadly and malignant entity with a sinister past...

The Dark Star Trilogy!

*A missing freighter, derelict and adrift, carrying a deadly and terrifying machine...

*An attack on the new colony by a mysterious Black Ship..

*A sinister asteroid with a dark and malignant secret..

What lies out there in the darkness of space?

Hello Everyone

Appologies for the delays in getting this first mission started. Both myself and the XO work in the NHS and have both suffered with the strain of our IRL workloads.

I hope the basis of the shakedown and mission will give everyone plenty to do during this first mission.

Happy to give guidance on anything if anyone has any questions on what to expect during the mission. Feel free to pop me a message as needed.

Thanks
Dan.

I’m not sure where to begin, I never really am with these…
