Shall we get the ball rolling?

How should the Daystrom RP proceed from here?

I think it's a new mission, so you're fine.

I'm ashamed of that Alpha thread. In my youth I supported Feline Mary Sue in her acts. black mark on my record. :|

I've got a blacker mark. :cry:

Anyway, Stitch - no worries. In a day or two, I'll set up a thread for people to post their characters and assignments, and we'll knock together a list of the ships/species/people which our task group comprises.

Is it okay to simply rehash characters? I realise i sorta mary sue'd with D'Tyra. I'd probably pick up G'han (name changed for ease) and another if I may re-create one.

I don't see why not. We'll allow for some time to have passed.

Mark said two - when we get all the ships and PC crew up, you'll be able to see what vacancies there are, or if there's something else you want to do within bounds of reason.

Ok, so what races are available for play? Whose enemy and ally?

Two character minimum. If you can effectively manage them, you can have more. When we decide what ships and how many we have, we can start talking about positions. Existing characters can keep their old jobs and ships if you'd like, but if you wanna promotion you've gotta "apply" for it.

Players with Captains already are fine, you get to keep your ship if you want the same character. If you want to be a Captain, it's gotta go through me and Mikey, because we can't have everybody as a Captain. Sorry.....to many chiefs and not enough indians and all that.

At the moment, we have a Starbase which will need a few NPCs. I'm thinking of promoting Fletcher to Admiral, Mikey. Making him the sector commander of what we discussed. Thoughts?

I forgot about him.

How many Admirals does a full Starbase have? Do you think a full Starbase 74? Or a smaller one, like 375?

I'd guess just one, maybe one senior and one junior?

I was thinking 3. Like a sector commander (maybe Vice Admiral), operations commander (2 Star), and base commander (I'm thinking a 1 Star).

Of course, I'm guessing. I've got no clue what rank officer would command a massive starbase.

Starbase 74 was commanded by a Commander wasn't it?
