The Sim

The Ship

In game, the ship has been selected to be a test-bed for technologies slated for the upcoming Rhode Island upgrade. Therefore, the M&M boasts a more robust warp core and an upgraded deflector shield matrix. The M&M is still certainly not a combat-heavy vessel, so run-and-hide tactics will remain its primary defense.

The waverider is named the USS Don Davis in memory of the simmer of the same name who passed away in January, 2019.
Deep Space 13

DS13 boasts a staff of 400, half of which are civilian scientists. There are two entrances to the dock area, which is centrally located in the main superstructure. The base can internally accomodate vessels up to Intrepid-class, with larger vessels serviced externally by work bees.
Commander: Rear Admiral Valentina Petrovich
Vessels assigned:




USS Discovery-C
USS Mark Miller
USS Zheng He
USS Francis Drake
Outpost Babylon

Outpost Babylon houses 500 personnel, 400 of which are civilian scientists. The base is run by the civilians, with the assigned Starfleet personnel primarily spporting the infrastructure and Starfleet personnel who visit. The M&M will sometimes land at the outpost for shoreleave opportunities.
Commander: Dr. Talia Wang, PhD
Area of Operations
Our Area of Operations is the Beta-quadrant portion of Federation space. Mainly the frontier near the Darsaean Alliance. The Mark Miller will be given missions within Federaiton space and without, mostly within a few sectors of Deep Space 13 and 92 Eriandi.
This is planned to be a traditional sim, therefore missions will be primarily scientific and/or exploratory in nature. However, with the Klingon Empire close to hand, conflict is sure to occur.

Uniforms

Our Canon
The USS Mark Miller is a member of UCIP, but we are not strictly a part of UCIP Fleet Canon. As such, any player transfers between the M&M and other UCIP sims will necessitate a new character. We follow most of UCIP Fleet Canon, but some differences will be noted.
• Sim Year is 2395. 17 years after Voyager returned, 8 years after Romulus was destroyed.
• Prime Timeline events from the 2009 Star Trek film are canon. As such, Romulus has been destroyed and the old Romulan Empire is no more. A Republic has taken the place in what was left of the Empire, with the Klingons annexing a lot of what was once the rimward portion of the RSE.
• Our canon primarily consists of only what has appeared on TV or movies, or extrapolated therefrom. Novels do not count, nor do the events of the "Abramsverse" movies with the above exception.
• Events within Star Trek Online can be considered canon on a case-by-case basis, unless previously addressed in this document.
• The ship design is a blend of UCIP canon, external fleet canon, and the Nova Technical Manual. All as referenced in the Credits Page.
