Mission: Episode 4 - The Mystery of Carina VII
Posted on Sat Nov 8th, 2025 @ 3:20pm by Captain Samuel Hunt

Samuel entered his quarters. The last few days, he had been on medical leave while healing and now after this check that he just returned from he had been cleared to return to duty. Sitting around these quarters the last few days had driven the MACO Captain crazy. His wounds from Coridan were worse than he had expected. Nothing too life threatening, but it was enough to warrant some time off. The last couple of days had been a time of reflection. Mostly he thought about his twin brother Martin who was currently serving aboard the SS Roosevelt. As much…

Mission: Episode 4 - The Mystery of Carina VII
Posted on Wed Nov 5th, 2025 @ 8:26pm by Colonel Josiah McEntyre & Admiral Guillermo Douglas & General of the MACOs George Casey & Lieutenant General Alyssa Duvall-Cain & Admiral Ve'lak

"Cordian was an unmitigated disaster!" The gravely voice of Admrial Guillermo Douglas, Chief of Starfleet Operations spoke. He was right of course, his tone coming through clear on the center screen of a massive three screen set up in the Unicorn's Wardroom. His office at Starfleet Command and the morning light of San Francisco bay shining in the background.

Josiah nodded, leaning back in his chair as Douglas' MACO counterparts, General Casey and Alyssa Duvall-Cain both nodded in agreement. Ve'lak always stoic simply stared but he most likely agreed as well.

Next to Josiah, on either side of him either…

Mission: Tales of the War
Posted on Mon Nov 3rd, 2025 @ 2:35pm by Commander Kytolos Sh'reyva

The stars slid past them like pencil-thin scratches of light, the long burn of warp making them appear tired and stretched. The convoy held formation--six freighters, a pair of Tellarite tugs, and three Andorian Imperial Guard frigates at the perimeter like sentinels guarding their charge.

Commander Kytolos Sh'reyva stood at the forward viewport of the Vorchal and watched it all with the tacit possession of a man who'd hung the stars himself. His ship hummed along as if it were a living thing--reactor harmonics deep in her bones, coolant pumps cycling through the decks. Every tremor beneath his boots was…

Mission: Episode 4 - The Mystery of Carina VII
Posted on Sat Oct 25th, 2025 @ 9:24pm by Captain Samuel Hunt & Major Iria

OOC: Backpost takes place at the end of The Campaign for Coridan.

Captain Samuel Hunt had brought himself into sickbay which had been flooded with the wounded that returned from the surface of Coridan. In all honest, Hunt would have preferred to be left on the surface to continue the fighting. But he was never one to go against a Commanding Officer's orders. Even if he did disagree with the decision. During the ground fighting, the Captain had taken a hit to the shoulder. At the time, it didn't seem too bad. Which probably had a lot to do with…

Mission: Episode 4 - The Mystery of Carina VII

::ON::

Sipping from his mug of Rigelian Coffee, Whitford was grateful for the hot, dark liquid. The Rigelians had started developing their own unique string of coffee beans from arabica since they had colonised the area, and he had to say, the strong taste was appealing to him. Particularly when he had to face a briefing at such an early hour. Barely the beginning of his shift, he mused.

Walking up and down the rows of the briefing room, he made sure that the required PADDs had been distributed, briefing documents enclosed for everyone's perusal. Stood near the door to…

Posted on Tue Sep 3rd, 2024 @ 6:27pm by Colonel Josiah McEntyre

Personal Log, Josiah McEntyre - September 3rd, 2156. Two Weeks of fighting these Romulan Bastards and not a inch of ground to show for it. The Capital is heavily fortified, a massive energy shield and AA emplacements surround the city like walls of a castle.

It has been elected that we start by breaking holes in this so-called wall. Raiding runs and FOBs lobbing plasma shells against the shields have been or are being set up near to Camp Lambda, the landing zone and command base for the Campaign.

Meanwhile, Unicorn and Task Force: Gamma continue to hold orbit. Apart…

Posted on Wed Jan 31st, 2024 @ 8:50am by Colonel Josiah McEntyre

As the War intensified, the United Earth began to turn more to its elite forces to turn the tide against the Romulans.

After the fall of Berengaria, this responsibility fell to the elite teams of MACO Special Operations.

These elite teams were handpicked by General George Casey from the most trusted of his field commanders to take the fight to the Romulans at any costs.

MACO Special Operations were led by three officers divided into 3 detachments: Alpha, Bravo, Charlie.

Special Operations Detachment Alpha was led by Colonel (later Major General) Josiah "Josh" McEntyre, operating from the Battleship Unicorn.

Personal Log...it's...uh...the twelfth of June, 2156. I just came aboard the SS Unicorn. She's one of the new Yorktown class battleships that Starfleet Command has finished building and added to the fleet. Not only that, but she's commanded by a MACO and not a fleeter. Her CO is Colonel Josiah McEntyre, one of the toughest S.O.B.s I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. Last time I saw him, was back in '48, when I attended SERE School, at the Lunar One Special Warfare Center. He was CO of the school at the time and, shit, he knew how to hit…

Posted on Thu Dec 21st, 2023 @ 2:04pm by Lieutenant Commander Travis Paladin

Begin log.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting our new Chief Helm Officer, Lieutenant Kayoko Himeji. She is a very optimistic person, though seems a bit timid if not shy. She had a tour of Main Engineering recently and I found it rather thrilling to share my passion. I've yet to grasp her passion, but she claims to be a good pilot. I believe her. I hope the tour today helped with that and look forward to what she'll do with that information.

End log.
