About the Sim
The USS Challenger is set in 2294, approximately one year after the events in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and Star Trek: Generations. The heroes of the last generation have retired; Captain James T. Kirk is dead. With Klingon-Federation relations the best they have been in decades, the Federation and other galactic powers are on the verge of a tenuous new era. To keep pace with these changing times, Starfleet is overhauling its fleet, mass-producing its latest Excelsior-class refit, of which the USS Challenger is one.
Space is a wide final frontier, fraught with wonders and dangers. Primarily on a mission of exploration, the Challenger is equipped with state-of-the-art sensors, perfect for cataloguing gaseous anomalies. However, it is also a heavy cruiser, armed with advanced weaponery, and the ship carries a complement of marines to augment its regular security staff. An almalgm of scientific genius and military edge, the Challenger can handle virtually any situation that presents itself, for it is crewed by some of Starfleet’s best and brightest.
Challenger is a member of the Star Trek™ Simulation Forum, an online community for Star Trek roleplaying fans. In order to join the ship, you must have graduated from STSF Academy. If you meet this requirement, then choose an open spot on the crew manifest and contact STSF's personnel department.
Challenger meets in the STSF Chatroom every Sunday night at 11:00 PM Eastern Time. Anyone is free to observe the simulation! You’ll need to be registered at the STSF message boards in order to log into the chat. Then simply enter the “Challenger” room and watch the sim unfold. Got questions? Contact Captain Seiben or Commander Ba'alyo, Challenger’s GM; they’ll be happy to satisfy your curiosity.
We hope to see you soon!
