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!

A week had passed since the incident in the nebula, and the ship's command functions still remained in Auxiliary Control. Harvey found himself rather stir crazy, since he didn't have an appropriate ready room or conference area to meet with the staff. The area was not designed for comfort, but…

It was great to be back on the Black Hawk again for multiple reasons. First and foremost, she got to see her huge fiancé, Lucas Abrams, and second, it got her the hell away from Captain Holmes. The man was infuriating and every time the Black Knights had landed on…

Having just met with Joey in the Ready Room, Harvey took a moment to review all of the reports from the senior officers. His eyes quickly skimmed over Frex's repair update, Marsh's overview of resource allocation, Monroe's medical status report, Wysocki's new maneuver plans, Mitchell's readiness report, Reynolds' crew fitness…

Emily's brain had difficulty comprehending her surroundings. Everywhere she turned, memory and reality failed to reconcile each other. The Black Hawk she remembered was battle-worn, patched and rebuilt multiple times over its lengthy service. She could still remember the tan crossmembers, the brushed khaki-colored hatch covers, and even the yellow…

The meeting with the other Captains and Commodore Geisler had gone smoother than expected, but during the whirlwind of debriefing the Commodore and then coming up with a plan to go after G90B, the two Karemma prisoners that they had brought back with them had simply been thrown into the…

With the release of "The Hornet's Nest," Mission 26 is now complete. I will get the Wiki and website homepage updated later this week.
» Massive Update
Posted on 05 Jun 2025 @ 5:24am by Commodore Harvey Geisler in General News
Hi ho everyone,
There were a lot of posts this morning that have been waiting to come out for both Mission 25 and Mission 26.
Mission 25 is over.
Mission 26 has one post remaining and will come in the next 48 hours.
And Mission 27 has started.
Each post that has been released today is a REQUIRED read. By doing so, you will learn...
- Why our Chief of Security and her team have been so quiet lately
- How the spacecraft was able to escape the Black Hawk
- How Harvey and Joey wound up unconscious in the flight deck
- G90B's true identity
For Mission 27, the description is on the site along with the Google Doc. I won't say anything more about that mission in this announcement, because (as River Song says) spoilers.
No all-crew JP for a while. Please pair up with JPs, or even work on a solo or two. I will get some things going when I return from abroad.
Happy Simming!

» 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.
