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!

Life as a Commanding Officer always seemed glamorous until real life proved that it wasn’t. Captains were expected to survive on their own, without guidance for most issues, unless there was something absolutely pressing that one had to maintain vigilance over. At the same time, they were expected to report…

The ship had about an hour before it reached Gamma Command, and for the first time in days, Harvey felt free enough to finally think of himself. His uniform might have been clean, but the skin it covered was bloodied, matted, and filthy. Nearly every cut, burn, and bruise was…

“Thank you for making the time to meet with me,“ Kennedy opened, now that they were both sitting across from each other and enjoying various refreshments in her office. Kennedy was reminded how much she liked the ship’s counselor, and not for the first time she had the thought they…

Two hours of silence from the Tiburon had stretched themselves thin across the bridge. Maddy sat in the center chair, posture straight but jaw tight, eyes fixed on the stars streaking past the viewscreen. Every passing second without an update gnawed at her. A Starfleet ship didn’t go silent without…

Maddy slipped through the doors of sickbay with the quiet caution of someone entering a space that hummed with activity she always found fascinating. The air carried that familiar blend of sterilizer and soft chatter, punctuated by the occasional beep from a diagnostic console. She paused just inside, letting the…

With that, Mission 27 AND Season 4 have come to an end. "Imposters Among Us" will remain open for all of those remaining posts to come to an end.
I want to thank each and every one of you. Without your contributions, your willingness to participate in this wild and crazy sim and these torturous adventures, none of this would be possible.
So, what's next?
Well, for us players, we are officially in the holiday season. Feel free to write as time and muse allows.
For our characters, we're going to employ the ever-popular timeskip. The current In-Character date is July 8, 2390. Season 5 will begin in late-January 2391. That's roughly five months later.
During these five months, there will be shore leave and patrolling the Gavara system and surrounding sectors. Quiet life. Feel free to write for your characters during that time in Mission 28: Interlude. New characters are welcome to officially join us during this time.
If you have any questions, reach out to me on Discord. Happy holidays!!!

As we finish our current mission, I've gone ahead and opened our next one "Epitaph." This will be an "interlude" mission that will be happening between now and January 1st when we'll kick off Season 5. A few JPs have already started there.
This mission will span from July 9, 2390 to February 1, 2391. During this time, the Black Hawk will be operating out of Gavara IV and will make regular runs to Gamma Command.
If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up in DM.
