Thank you.. but as I said, it's from Horace. It's Latin (and a rather famous bit of Latin poetry.) It translates as "It is sweet and fitting [proper, appropriate] to die [give up one's life] for one's homeland."
:bangwall:

I even knew that. My apologies.

Alex: I do like the patch and the plaque! The only thing I would request is, to second Mikey, perhaps change "United Federation of Planets" on the mission patch to, perhaps, "United Earth Starfleet." Or something along those lines?

The only problem is that the middle of the mission patch is the first UFP logo. I have however changed the text. What I was thinking is that maybe we could say that the UFP was formed by multiple treaties and that the first was signed early 2158 and the last one was signed in 2161.

I have also slightly modified the dedication plaque:

Well, here is the United Earth embassy on Vulcan from Ent. They seem to have a bit of an emblem. Perhaps you could either duplicate that or create something off of it?

It's a huge file so I have put a much smaller one below:

This is the link to the huge one:

I actually have it at 7407x8000 but that's excessive so I uploaded it at around 5000. I can send the 8000 one on request and I have a much bigger one of the mission patch too it you want it. If you want to use them for anything, PM me and I will most probably grant full permission.

Alright, I have a month off so now I can actually think creatively and write!

By the way, Alex, I very much appreciate the artwork your putting into this. Little details like a simple mission patch or emblem go a long way to making this more seem real.

Firstly, you're welcome, I enjoy it.

Secondly, I should get a post up before christmas.

Thirdly, I look forward to reading whatever you post.

Fourthly, I there anything else you guys want me to design?

Lastly, I noticed a problem. The Daedalus itself has a registry of NCC-129 but we have the Aegis as NCC-101.

#Edit#
Mark, in deck plan thread wrote:50 are MACOs bringing us to the standard (four squads of twelve and two officers)
You have also mentioned having 52 MACOs. I think that makes more sense, as it would be five squads of ten and two officers.

Just a little something I thought might help you guys. If you want anything else, I can do another few pages.

That's good!

Indeed you should (and so should I)

Fantastic, now there's pressure! :lol:

I'm satisfied but if anyone else has any requests...?
Lastly, I noticed a problem. The Daedalus itself has a registry of NCC-129 but we have the Aegis as NCC-101.
I believe in our little universe here we're going with the Daedalus as NCC-100 with Aegis her sister ship as NCC-101.

Thank you for the concise poster Alex. I already copied it (if thats ok with you) so that when I'm offline and writing I will have all I need.


Also, I just found half of a post I was working on... now I remember why I didn't finish it. :lol:

Stitch, sorry if I didn't make it clear. That was the whole point of the posters.
