Introduction

The Foremost Fleet

That's right, this is the home page of Fleet 1, STF's First and Most Fore Fleet. Historically, though, it was not the first STF fleet (that paradoxical title goes to rival fleet 2). Fleet 1 currently has five ships, the Ark Angel; the Victorious; the Ogawa; the Bonaventure; and the Valkyrie.

Ships of the Fleet

USS Ark Angel, NCC-2014-A -- Nimitz Class

If any ship in STF1 can be called a symbol of the fleet, then that ship is the USS Ark Angel. The AA was one of the first ships in STF to be a Nimitz class ship; its armament far exceeds that of the best warships. In a nutshell, it has been called a "Borg cube."

Many famous faces have graced the AA -- Mike Cathcart, Randy McCullick, and Greg Hertzsch. In the days of Prodigy, the AA had a hot tub the size of several football fields. It also had a monster that lived in the plumbing and came out most notably in 1998 when it attacked hot tub bathers. But in 2001 the USS Ark Angel was scraped and the USS Ark Angel was recomissioned a Maverick Class Cruiser, which was later recommissioned back to a Nimitz class.

USS Ogawa, NCC-64284 -- McCoy Class

STF's first (and so far, only) medical ship, the Ogawa is the from the new McCoy class designed by Larry Garfield. Its inaugural captain was Deanne Ashton, and its inaugural XO was Nathan Miller, now commanded by Therle Dragnasky and Edgar Cramer.

USS Valkyrie, NCC-74646 -- Viking Class

Captain Shalon Hurlbert took command of the USS Valkyrie, formally the USS Resolution, Discovery Class formally under the command of Captain Mackael Stockhausen. Now it is under the command of Captain Jack Dipper.

USS Victorious, NCC-65442-C -- Discovery Class

If any ship in STF1 can be called the Jose Canseco of the fleet, then that ship is the USS Victorious. The ship began its career in Fleet 3 (a "colony" on a different Prodigy bulletin board) but was brought back to the STF proper in 1995 under the guise of Fleet 2. There, its registry was NCC-1929 and its class, oddly enough, was Nebula (something expressly forbidden in STF). For several years, the Vicky was the flagship of the Great White Fleet. On August 21, 1998, the Vicky was transferred to Fleet 1, and then made the transition to the WeBB, where its registry changed to NCC-64552 and its class changed to Phoenix.

The Vicky's former captains were Adam Steiner, Adam Scurr, and Nick Oven. Oven took control of Vicky after the crew of the Trinitron transferred to it, the latter ship having been destroyed. When Oven left STF in 1997, Executive Officer Mark Wilson was given command. Today it is an Discovery class Observer (NCC-64552-C) commanded by Stephanie Lowe.

SS Bonaventure, NCC-1 -- Bonaventure Class

The SS Bonaventure is a Bonaventure Class Vessel. The first of her class, she was commissioned on October 18th, 2003 by President Emma Rouse-Deane and placed under the Command of Captain Alexander Stewart, aka Captain Krystelle Bromilow, and Commander Alex Anderson, aka Fleet Captain Steve Johnson, The Bonaventure began its voyage sailing into the unknown. On December 15th, 2004 President Edgar Cramer placed the SS Bonaventure under the command of Captain Michael H. Nelson, aka Captain Symon Silvester. The Bonnie has since been decommissioned for product improvement, with plans to restart the ship in early April 2006.

Bonaventure is a Alternative Roleplaying Enviroment. The Environment is based upon the Enterprise Era.

The Scottie Testing Centre

One of the most unique and challenging of the environments to come to Fleet 1, the Scottie Testing Centre served within the confines of the Engineering Department, then the Research and Development Department, then relegated back to Engineering, before finding a home at Fleet 1. The Scottie Testing Centre houses some of the Fleet's most veteran members, whose sims can include more conventional sims or the testing or newly submitted ships and technology, just in case. The STC was transferred to Fleet 1 under the watchful eye of Fleet Captain Amanda Noon
