The Golden Stars lurked in the shadows. The Consortium destroyed from within. The Dolmoqour used the best parts of yourself to betray your kin.
For the last two years, the crew of the Akira-Class USS Black Hawk-B have been forced through the tumbler where rocks become precious gems. This ship and crew now are among the best and the brightest in the Gamma Quadrant. Some have started families, others have found love, and others find solace in the bottom of a bottle.
The USS Black Hawk is now returning to the unknown, no longer on missions to dig and investigate deep, dark secrets, but to boldly go where no one has gone before. Little do any of them know that what they will soon encounter will be their greatest test of all!
Are you among the brave, bold, and curious in the Federation? Do you want to be a part of a decorated sim that has received multiple accolades from the simming community at large, including being recognized as a 2018 Squiddie recipient? Then the Black Hawk is for you!

T’Mari walked into Sickbay it’d been a little while since her hostage ordeal, but she needed someone to talk to, and Kennedy seemed the logical choice. She wasn’t sure if she was in her office but she made her way across to it popping her head round the door. “Knock,…

As was common for the first morning of a new mission, Harvey took it upon himself to tour the vessel, stopping by each of the major locations aboard the ship and check in with his senior staff. This leg of the journey brought him to Sickbay. Now that they were…

It did not take long to discover that Lieutenant Ryler's and Frex's modifications to the sensors were both a blessing and a curse. G90B did not just contain birythium in its hull plating and composition, but also various amounts of duranium, dolamide, and viterium. Unfortunately, the nebula had various quantities…

For an hour, the Black Hawk pursued G90B as the alien craft warped deep into space that was recently patrolled by the Federation. Harvey gave no order to overtake or engage the enemy craft. After all, the damage rendered to G90B was solely thanks to the Valcour's sacrifice. If the…

After Camila and Foy had headed off towards the mines or wherever they were going, Ronin looked at Sunni. "So, where do you feel like exploring before dinner?" he asked her.
Sunni took a look around. "Maybe just start exploring and talking to the colonists? See if they might be…

» Upcoming Server Outage
Posted on 16 Oct 2024 @ 8:34am by Commodore Harvey Geisler in Website Update
Hello everyone,
I have just learned that the webserver the Black Hawk is hosted on will be undergoing maintenance on Friday, October 18, 2024 beginning at 10pm Eastern. During this time, the sim will be moved to a new server, and the site will be available for up to four hours.
In order to make sure no changes are lost, I will be locking the site around 9pm Eastern that night. I will unlock the site Saturday morning once I've verified that all is good.
If you have any questions, please reach out to me in DM.

Hi everyone,
Now that we're at Gavara and doing the Task Group Meet-Up... we're basically at the end of the mission. From here, we're going to do something we've never done before and that's run two missions at once. We're sending a small group back undercover, and that will be one mission. The other mission will be focused on drawing out this new threat.
The undercover group is currently invite-only, especially since we're going to need all hands for the mission taking place aboard the ship.
Details will come later this week, so please tend to open tags if you have them.

» Day 2
Posted on 22 Aug 2024 @ 3:08pm by Commodore Harvey Geisler in Mission Update
We have now entered Day 2 of our mission. It will be brief both IC and OOC as I plan to jump us to Day 3 in a week or two where we'll arrive at Gavara and be a little busy.
Feel free to have your characters interact with survivors, perform duties, or just explore the ship. As always, I'm available for JPs. Just reach out to me in DM, or fire up a starter and I'll join you.
For ideas, check out 50 Mission Post Ideas: https://database.anurasims.com/index.php?title=50_Mission_Post_Ideas
The Mission Notes within Nova here have been updated, don't hesitate to refer to those.
And, finally, I'm seeking volunteers to participate in an "Command" post at Gavara that will involve COs and XOs from ships in the Task Group. If you're interested, send me a ping!
