UFOP: STARBASE 118

"Welcome to Starbase 118, cadet. Do you have what it takes?"

UFOP: Starbase 118 is one of the longest running Star Trek Play By Email groups on the internet and has been in continuous operation, under the same leadership, since its founding in 1994. We have eight active ships and over a hundred active writers.

Our community is, and always has been, 100% completely free- including advertisements. You will not see any popups on our pages.

"Why us?"

We offer the highest quality Star Trek Role Playing experiences on the internet today, while providing a friendly online community that we are proud to be a part of. Our group was founded in 1994, and has been under the same stewardship of Fleet Admiral Tristan Wolf since then. Indeed, many of our staff have been a part of the group for five or more years. Everyone has the opportunity to become a staff member within our group simply by showing leadership, dedication to our community, and a willingness to help us maintain our community resources.

"What do I need?"

All you need is an e-mail address to join us. No experience is required to participate in the game, and you don't need any extra software. Within the span of just a few days we will train you in how to play, introduce you to other new players, and then assign you to one of our long-standing vessels playing a wide range of missions from exploration, to full scale battles. You will improve your writing skills, meet players from all over the world, and read some of the best Star Trek fiction around.

"What crews can I be a part of?"

We're very glad you asked. We have eight active vessels, each typically staffed with between 10 and 20 full-time writers.

USS Aurora
"Knowledge is its own reward."

The USS Aurora is a Nova-class starship and is the newest addition to our fleet. She sails under the command of Commander Della Vetri.

USS Challenger-A
"Give me a challenge and I'll meet it with joy."

The USS Challenger-A is a Sovereign-class starship. More about the Challenger-A here, since I really don't know that much about it, which is a shame. She sails under the command of Captain Samal Frazier.

USS Discovery-B
"Undefeated"

The USS Constitution-B is a Galaxy-class starship. Whale is awesome. Everything he does is good, so this ship is good. She sails under the command of Captain Samuel Perkins.

USS Discovery-B
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."

The USS Discovery-B is a Ronin-class starship. More about the Discovery-B here, since I really don't know that much about it, which is a shame. She sails under the command of Captain Tyr Waltas.

USS Eagle
"Bring it on."

The USS Eagle is an Intrepid-class starship. Eagle stuff here. Eagle stuff here. Eagle stuff here. She sails under the command of Captain Quinn Reynolds.

Embassy of Duronis II
"Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend."

While not technically a ship at all, the Federation Embassy of Duronis II is an embassy building under the command of Captain Toni Turner. A building of peace and goodwill, the Embassy is located on Duronis II, homeworld of the Laudeans; a world which, until only recently, was under "benevolent" Romulan rule. The crew have a Cheyenne-class starship support vessel, the USS Thunder, for when they wish to stretch their legs.

USS Independence-A
"A little revolution is good... every now and then."

The USS Independence-A is a Prometheus-class starship. A tactical cruiser, fighter-carrier and gunship, the Independence-A is equipped to handle any situation from diplomacy to pitched space battles, from exploration to first contact with alien lifeforms. She sails under the command of Fleet Captain Sidney Riley.

USS Victory
"Honi Soit Qui Mal Y Pense."

The USS Eagle is an Intrepid-class starship. I know this is my own vessel but I'm too tired 'k. Moar stuff tomorrow. She sails under the command of Commander Andrus Jaxx.
