At the end of 2006, after only two short years, the [[Embassy]] was closed. It seemed that players found it as life on a Starship more interesting, and the dream seemed destined to fail. But in 2010, believing in the platform, and that there were countless stories to be told at the Embassy, a rookie Captain, me, - Toni Turner - reopened the Embassy, making it what I deemed the best of the two worlds - combining the Embassy's diplomatic and science situations with space exploration. | |||
As a player myself, the first change made was securing a higher powered Starship - a Cheyenne Class, named the [[USS Thunder]]. However, after two Summer Blockbuster missions ("Battle for Bajor" and "The Klingon Incursion"), it became apparent that a even higher powered class ship was needed, and the Thunder was destroyed in battle. It's replacement was a Akira Class with all the 2390's upgrades, including the Quantum Slipstream Warp Drive. So now, the crew spends equal time between the Embassy and the [[USS Thunder-A]]. We don't have to worry as much about being out-gunned or not having the fire power to protect the diplomats who depend on us to keep them safe, and the players who make up the crew of the Embassy/Thunder have the sky as the limit of their creativity. | |||

This can be quite an amusing read. You'll see what we inherited from our friends across the fleet and perhaps be able to reflect on how our sims and the details in them compare to their original ideas. Perhaps you could even bring back a forgotten idea and get it into one of your posts to make that dream become a reality. | This can be quite an amusing read.
