==1.3 A Quick Note On SFI==
Reading up and chatting with fleetmates about the Intelligence Duty Post in SB118, one major issue seemed to come up more often than others. It seems that the role of SFI (Starfleet Intelligence) within Starfleet has been confused.

Here’s the deal. Starfleet Intelligence should be seen as no different than Starfleet Medical, Starfleet Corps of Engineers, or the Starfleet Marine Corps. They are not a separate entity, but a subdivision of Starfleet Command. They serve a unique function, but they serve Starfleet. That means you serve your Captain and follow the chain of command. No exceptions. Oh, and if you’re thinking about Section 31… stop! '''In the SB118, playing Section 31 characters is strictly prohibited.''' Plain and simple.
