Attention all hands! Some changes are coming to SFCQ2.com and we're giving a bit of an early warning that the site will be done for a short time in the coming weeks as we undergo a bit of an overhaul for the site – and one that ended up being a much larger endeavour than we'd initially anticipated!
As part of some tweaks to fleet structure heading into 2025, our first two new Fleet Support positions have been filled just after celebrating SFC's 50th anniversary. The expansion of Fleet Support allows for more ideas and voices to enter the general operations of Quadrant 2 whilst opening more opportunities for advancement and contributing to the fleet overall.
As much as the rank and rewards system mirrors the fictionalised naval structure of Starfleet, so so does the Chain of Command. On screen each crew is led by it's Captain while back home they answer to Admirals sendin gout the assignments and supervising the exploration into the unknown. Our unknown is a little less space adventure, but the logic remains the same and has remained one of the most c...[Read More]
Starting off our 50th anniversary month with a bang, we're thrilled to announce another new unit forming in our collective that not only brings something new to Q2, but revives a long quiet region within the Quadrant. Captained by Magali Kauffman, we're pleased and round to announce that as of today the USS Proxima undertakes it's shakedown cruise as the latest addition to Quadrant 2's Fleet.
It's not exactly a secret that since lockdown, there's been a bit of a disconnect for a lot of people. Myself included. It's safe to say between lockdown keeping me tied to a desk job, moving into the middle of nowhere and generally finding a billion and one things to do for Q2, I'd become a bit of a shut in. But after what feels like years of promising to get back outside and rejoin the fun on t...[Read More]
It's become a thing of legend that Star Trek fans are the type of fans who like to know the details. All the details. It's a stereotype that's been enhanced by our own fandom. We had the Nitpickers Guide series. We had Technical manuals. We had fans writing to production staff to ask how transporters worked. In turn we had the infamous 'Get A Life' sketch and tributes to the fandoms from news piec...[Read More]
Since our humble beginnings fifty years ago, SFC hasn't been a singular thing. We're a collective. Groups of people with the same interests, connected by an ideal or a fandom that can bring people together locally or reach out further beyond. Each of those groups, or units in our fleet focused wording, are the core of the fleet and everything we're here for.
It's safe to say that the Star Trek Universe has been in a constant state of evolution lately. From the weekend announcements and showcases form SDCC (more on that later this week) to massive shifts in recent years that's saw more than a few new creative directions taken, change has always been key to a long and healthy franchise. As a ridiculously weak transition from that to the Admirals Update,...[Read More]
There's new hope for new frontiers as Star Trek's parent company finds new owners, Prodigy's second season makes a big impact on Netflix and more including new merch, new collaborations and Starfleet at war! Well, kind of...
While the decades have seen us change a lot, there's one thing that's always been front and centre to Quadrant 2 and the 'Starfleet values' that we take a great deal of pride in. Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations.
Returning for 2024, our Officer of the Month program has been reignoited after a long absence to highlight members of Q2 who stand out as fine examples of their fleet and their unit. Despite a minor delay to the return of the progrtam we're pleased ot anounce the first officer of the month for 2024!
These days nearly everything has a subscription fee. From the common issue of multiple streaming platforms to the ability to keep the heated car seat you paid extra for turned on there's barely anything left that doesn't come without some hidden cost or fee. In a world of squeezing out every penny from loyalty, Q2 has committed to never charge a penny for membership.
