Welcome Aboard Unicorn NX-151!

May 18th, 2156

The Romulan Imperial Navy launches a sneak attack, destroying Earth’s first Starbase “Salem One” and the new colony at Berengeria VII. In response, Earth and her allies declare war against the Romulan Star Empire, sparking the Earth-Romulan War. The United Earth Starfleet and the Military Assault Command Operations rush to deploy men and equipment to the new frontlines including Earth’s first two Yorktown Class Battleships, Yorktown and Unicorn, the first Joint Crewed Starfleet/MACO ship, commanded by veteran Special Operations Colonel Josiah “Josh” McEntyre.

Unicorn’s orders: Take the fight to the Romulans, by whatever means necessary!

Mission: The Campaign for Coridan
Posted on Fri Jan 17th, 2025 @ 3:47pm by Lieutenant Commander Alexander Coleman & Colonel Josiah McEntyre & Major Iria & Lieutenant Amelia Johansen

"Incoming Transport....Incoming Transport"

The alarms for the shuttlebay squealed. More incoming shuttlepods and dropships with wounded aboard. It was a mess. Medics and Corpsmen scurrying about as loading ramps drop and more medics disembark with stretchers of wounded MACOs, Vulcan Territorial Army and Andorian Guardsmen.

Colonel Josiah McEntyre had used the chance to get back to Unicorn after onboarding a new MACO captain and hearing of the ambush on his men at the Sensor Relay. This batch of wounded though was from Field Marshal th’Groffe's Andorian Guard and MACOs of the Combined 1st and 4th MACO MEUs under Lieutenant General…

Mission: The Landings
Posted on Wed Jan 15th, 2025 @ 10:09pm by Sub-Commander T'shir & Commander Saul Whitford & Lieutenant Commander Gabriel Calhoun & 1st Lieutenant Volodymyr Kovalenko

Elf dressed in her suit and carrying her equipment entered the pod she was assigned to. She settled in.

T'shir gave a curt nod to Lieutenant McArthur as she walked through the Shuttle Bay and into her assigned pod. McArthur's shuttlepod would be piloted by Lt. Commander Calhoun, and the goal was to get the communications officer as close to one of the main Romulan relay stations as possible as they attempted to hack into the computer servers that were being used to jam communications between Starfleet and it's allies in the war.

The other shuttlepod would provide cover as…

Mission: The Campaign for Coridan
Posted on Thu Dec 19th, 2024 @ 6:34pm by Colonel Josiah McEntyre

Coridan was a mess. Anyone claiming to understand it is either lying, delusional, or trying to sell something. Probably all three. – Admiral Thy’lek Shran

November 29, 2156: a force of over fifty Coalition ships – twenty-two Andorian Khyzon-class cruisers; thirteen Vulcan D’Kyr-class cruisers; ten Starfleet ships, led by the USS Columbia and Buran and including the Intrepid-class USS Gjøa, Hōkūleʻa, and St. Roch as minesweepers; six Tellarite Pralim-class cruisers; and seven converted cargo ships carrying 400,000 troops- entered the Coridan system. This armada constituted the largest deployment of Coalition forces of the war to date, and was the largest…

Mission: The Campaign for Coridan
Posted on Mon Dec 16th, 2024 @ 10:07pm by Colonel Josiah McEntyre & Captain Samuel Hunt

Getting new reinforcements were a cause for celebration. Considering most of the MACOs from 12th MACOs were redeployed with Field Marshal th’Groffe and his Andorian Imperial Rangers to Jorinal Canyon, it was nice to get more people for Camp Lambda and the push into the Capital.

Colonel McEntyre waited at the airfield for the troopship to arrive, for their shuttles to disgorge from the massive Hayes Class Transports and the arrival of a new Captain to add to the growing officers under him and Special Operations Detachment-Alpha.

As the troopship landed, several MACOs hopped out with rifles in hand, followed…

The bar on Starbase 1 was not new. It had been around for years. Elsepth had been to it many times, and now they were back, she went there to get a drink. Dressed down in jeans and a teeshirt that she had dug out of her closet, it read UA - Rule like KINGS.

When she stepped up to the bar, the Bolian behind it came over and asked, “What can I get you, young lady?”

“Andorian Ale” She said. It was…

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.
