[Q2&A] Unit Operations: The USS Proxima

Première unité depuis plus de vingt ans à s'installer dans la région, Proxima est basée à Metz, ville pittoresque du nord-est de la France. Proche des frontières de l'Allemagne, du Luxembourg et de la Belgique, Proxima a le potentiel d'aller loin, notamment grâce à son capitaine et à son équipe fondatrice qui visitent des événements dans la région. La capitaine de Proxima, Magali Kauffman, a été impressionnée par leur proposition d'exercer une influence positive et diplomatique sur la communauté des fans. Après une première impression positive, Proxima a rapidement obtenu l'approbation pour devenir le dernier membre du Quadrant 2. Depuis lors, Proxima a apporté un élément unique et perspicace à Q2 en portant le drapeau de tout ce que nous défendons dans une région souvent négligée en dépit de son incroyable et vibrante communauté. Le lancement de Proxima a été […]

Ships of the Line

[Ships Of The Line] The NEw Orleans

One of the first multi purpose vessels built for the mid 24th century refresh of Starfleet, the New Orleans was the most adaptable model within the larger Galaxy family of starship design. With a trio of mission specific sensor pods, the ship was perfect for short term research missions as a primary objective whilst being able to swap out the pods for more specific purposes or even as defensive units. Smaller than the 'heads of the table' Galaxy and Nebula classes, the New Orleans was the more traditional design in the mid-scale models similar to the Cheyenne and Springfield Classes. Hosting a crew averaging 500, the ship was tightly packed with mixed crew quarters and multi-purpose research facilities to accommodate for the far-ranging tasks it would be assigned to, whether it was planetary defence or survey operations. With modernised nacelles […]

Fleet Alert!

Tour The Galaxy with the USS Tesla!

Every quarter we'll be putting a division of Quadrant 2 under the spotlight as we Tour The Galaxy with the best and brightest of the fleet. And to start off on a high, we thought we'd begin with one of our fastest developing groups in the past decade; the USS Tesla! The first unit to launch following our mass fleet reorganisation a decade ago, the USS Tesla was first proposed as an idea in passing conversation and soon blossomed into one of the leading groups in both Q2 and in Scotland. Coming in with established roots in the sci fi community, founding members of Tesla were already well known in fan circles thanks to their association and membership with the UK Colonial Marines and diverse involvement at events in Scotland and beyond. Spearheaded by Fraser who stands as CO of […]

Ships of the Line

[Ships Of The Line] The Nova (& Rhode Island) Class

One of the more popular starship designs to come out of the mid-late 24th century, the Nova and it's sub class the Rhode Island, had an unusual history. Initially drafted as one of many designs conceptualised following early encounters with the Borg, it's origins lay in defensive planning before it was finalised for a more scientific role in favour of other defensive options for the fleet. Designed for combat initially, the Nova Class was one of many styles designed to be small, compact and manoeuvrable that could be built up in large numbers to bolster the fleeds defence in times of crisis. Like many starship designs proposed at the time, the ship's concept would be abandoned in favour of the Defiant Class project until a new idea was needed elsewhere. Revived by Starfleet for short term planetary research, the Nova […]

Inside Trek

[Inside Trek] Andrew Probert

Building the look of the Star Trek Universe isn't easy. Following a template made by Mat Jeffries, every artist who joins the universe builds on that original work. For one artist, his mission wasn't just to build on what came before, but completely reinvent it all with a new vision that would end up becoming one of the most iconic pieces of Star Trek; The Enterprise-D bridge. A graduate of Pasadena's Art Centre College of Design, Andrew Probert's screen career began with science fiction. On the recommendation of fellow artist Ralph McQuarrie, Probert would join the team behind the original Battlestar Galactica series, adding his mark to the universe with the Cylon Centurion design which would represent the Cylons and be revisited as an older model in the Ron Moore driven reboot. Entering the Star Trek Universe in 1978, Probert […]
