''Not to be confused with the in-character article about [[Starbase Bravo]].''
+
The purpose of this guide is to show you how positions work on Starbase Bravo, including which tiers gain access to which positions and then how those positions fit into the chain of command. For your very first character, you'll be selecting from Tier I positions, until you earn enough Duty Ribbons to advance through the tiers, as explained in the main [[Guide:Starbase Bravo|Starbase Bravo Guide.]]  
  
'''Starbase Bravo''' is an ongoing open sandbox for members of Bravo Fleet. Open to everyone, this space is meant to provide people with an opportunity to write character development stories and organic plots to their hearts' content, without relying on direct game manager intervention like a traditional RPG. Members start off in generalist roles and gain access to specialised or leadership positions by posting with others. The more Duty Ribbons you earn on Starbase Bravo, the greater access to ranks and positions you earn. Though meant primarily as a collaborative writing space, this is also a place where members may write solo stories about the crew, though those posts do not count towards their advancement within the sandbox. This guide is meant to help you understand how to join, what (and how) to write, and what sort of positions you have access to.
+
To navigate this guide, scroll down to the area you're interested in, and it will list the positions available in each Division, Department, and Section. As you gain access to new tiers, you can choose to promote your existing characters or create a new character. You do not need to stay in the same department/section/division, either. Note: the rank guidelines are not precisely even within each tier across all of the possible position types, to account for some slight variation based on the nature of the particular position.
  
Before you proceed, please read the [[Guide:Starbase Bravo Rules|Starbase Bravo Rules]].
+
For more information on all of these positions, checkout the [[:Category:Starfleet Onboard Departments|Starfleet Onboard Departments]] category.  
  
== Initial Character Creation and Joining ==
+
== Command Division ==
Any Bravo Fleet member can apply to join Starbase Bravo. It is highly recommended, but not ''required'', that you complete the Character Creation Program, which is necessary for advancement beyond entry-level positions and can help you find many helpful resources here on the wiki to create realistic characters.
+
Starbase Bravo's commanding officer is currently Vice Admiral Thomas Belvedere, dual-hatted as the sector commander for the Mellstoxx Sector, overseeing all general Starfleet operations in the sector not tied directly to the Fourth Fleet. He is assisted by Captain Javier Reyes, the Executive Officer. While Starbase Bravo hosts the Fourth Fleet's senior command staff, they do not generally interfere directly in station operations except in times of immediate crisis requiring the response of the fleet itself.

Unlike a traditional game, characters are not evaluated based on their fit for the sandbox other than whether or not they follow the [[Canon Policy]]. It would be wise to look at the [[Intelligence Office Guides]] as well. Generally speaking, as long as you're not attempting to play as a non-canon or prohibited species, and you're proposing a character within the rank and position guidelines listed below, it will be accepted.

Initial characters should be Tier 1 characters, which means they should have a generic position like Science Officer or Security Officer, though they may hold up to the officer rank of lieutenant commander or the enlisted grade of chief petty officer. Cadets and enlisted trainees are allowed, and have their own rank guidelines. Civilian characters are allowed, unrestricted by tier. The titles available in the open positions list are available to initial characters.

You should create a character on the BFMS, set to Story Mode, and assigned to Starbase Bravo. Then click [https://bravofleet.com/apply?cmd=34941 here] to fill out the application. Note: for the writing sample, you can provide a sample if you desire or just write "Starbase Bravo initial application" in the box, as we will not be evaluating your sample post, just making sure that your character follows the lore policy.

In addition to the departments listed below, there are some personnel that are directly part of the Command Division and not a particular department or section. Deck Officer is the title given to command division generalists who haven't yet been assigned to a department, and in this role they assist as needed, especially by greeting new arrivals at the various docking bays to accept their transfer orders and help them get where they need to go. Watch Officers supervise Station Operations and other control centers in the absence of more senior officers.

=== Flight Control Department ===
 +
The Flight Control Section is responsible both for guiding starships into their berths and small craft launch and recovery procedures, as well as for piloting the station's assigned small craft. These command division officers are numerous, as the station has hundreds of small craft and coordinates thousands of dockings every single day.
 +
 
 +
* The Small Craft Section is the station's pool of pilots for shuttles and runabouts. Personnel from this section are often assigned to pilot fighters as well, as needed.
 +
* The Space Traffic Control Section is responsible for guiding ships into dock and managing the space around the station. They work from Station Operations, as well as many control rooms spread around the station, one per hanger and several in each major docking complex. 
 +
* The Hanger Operations Section is responsible for the movement, storage, and resupply of craft and starships within the station, in the main spacedock and in its various hangers. Repairs, however, are conducted by the Shipyard Operations Section.
 +
* Generalists can work in any of these sections, as needed.

You may not create additional characters until you have advanced in the game (see below).  
+
=== Administration Department ===
 +
The Administration Department encompasses a wide variety of officers and specialists who make sure the paperwork necessary for keeping such a large base running is handled efficiently. This ranges from helping with crew transfers and the administration of records, to providing one-on-one support for officers in other departments and the station's command staff through the support section.
  
== What to Write ==
+
* The Records Section maintains the station's administrative archive, which contains every log created by every member of the station's crew, as well as the logs from ships assigned to the Mellstoxx Sector. They make sure that everything is filed and coded correctly, and handle everything from collating birth and death records to applying the appropriate classified information standards to various files.
As an open sandbox, Starbase Bravo exists as a place to write about the lives and work of the crew without the constant action, activity requirements, or mission directives of a traditional RPG. Members thus have free reign to write as much as they wish and about whatever they wish - within the confines of the game. The advancement structure hinges on joint posts, so we encourage you to reach out to your fellow members to organize stories together. As long as you don't change the main mission/political situation or hurt anyone else's character, feel free to write as you see fit!
+
* The Personnel Section handles transfers, promotions, enlistments, retirements, and other personnel-related matters. They serve as career advisors, as well.
 +
* The Support Section (sometimes erroneously called the Yeomanry Section) encompasses all of the stations hundreds of yeomen, who assist senior officers and other personnel in the completion of their duties, run errands, and make deliveries. This section includes both non-officer and officer yeomen.
 +
* Generalists in the administration department go between these different sections as needed.
  
Starbase Bravo missions provide further structure within that. Lasting three to six months on average, staff members introduce a situation facing the starbase or operations for its crewmembers to undertake. They differ from those of traditional RPGs, merely introducing a scenario and offering suggestions, plot hooks, or mission parameters which members can choose to develop and undertake of their own accord, with other members of their own choice and to a conclusion of their own choosing. They are also never a clear and present threat to the station; they do not disrupt everyday life or demand the primary attention of every officer, and as such engagement with them is completely optional.

The emphasis, however, is on members driving this writing. You choose what story hooks to pick up on, who to write with, and how to resolve your mission. While you should never write something which 'resolves' the whole overarching situation without staff permission, there is plenty of room for your characters to have their own important stories within the scenario. Free reign can admittedly be a little intimidating, but this really is your oyster.

=== Civilian Affairs Department ===
 +
The Civilian Affairs Department is responsible for meeting the needs of the station's large civilian population. This ranges from mediating disputes, assigning quarters, and training on safety to organizing recreational and educational programming. This department includes some civilians in senior roles.
 +
 
 +
* The Public Relations Section handles communications between the station's administration and its civilian population, through daily briefing messages, several visual and holographic informational programs, and press briefings.
 +
* The Recreation & Morale Section handles organizing programs for residents and crew related to physical and mental well-being, cultural events, and other enrichment programs that range from sporting tournaments, arts and crafts days, and theatrical performances.
 +
* The Education Section is responsible for operating the station's four high schools, eight middle schools, and sixteen elementary/early childhood schools, which provide a standardized Federation education to residents and the families of officers alike.
 +
* Civilian Affairs generalists are usually assigned to solve disputes and help finesse housing assignments to make everyone happy, but also work in public relations or recreation when necessary.

==== Diplomats and Foreign Agents ====
 +
As a major starbase, Starbase Bravo plays hosts to multiple Commissions from various Federation member worlds and Consulates from foreign powers.
 +
 
 +
* Federation diplomats represent the interests of their homeworlds to the CO of Starbase Bravo and to Fourth Fleet leadership, as well as providing some limited services to citizens from those worlds. Not every Federation world has a presence on the base, but Betazed's delegation is particularly large because the colony the station orbits was founded by the Betazoids.
 +
* Alien diplomats represent the interests of foreign powers to the CO of Starbase Bravo and to Fourth Fleet leadership, as well as providing consular services to their citizens. Not every foreign power has a consulate on the station, but as it is home to a numbered fleet, many do.

 +
 
 +
* The Signals Intelligence Section uses the station's communications arrays to intercept all transmissions in the Mellstoxx system and surrounding sector, looking for patterns in who is sending messages to whom, the encryption being used, and direct interception of messages, when permitted by Federation and Interstellar Law.
 +
* The Sensors Intelligence Section uses the station's sensor arrays to keep a direct eye on all ships in the system and surrounding sector, where permitted by Federation and Interstellar Law. They are especially concerned with tracking foreign vessels within the station's area of influence, particularly cloaked vessels.

=== Starfighter Division Sierra Bravo Four ("Sentinel Division") ===
 +
As a major defensive installation, Starbase Bravo hosts a permanent starfighter division of 64 craft, split across 2 groups, and 8 squadrons. Starfleet frequently assigns pilots to this division for training in formation maneuvers and to gain piloting hours. Some pilots split their time between fighter duties and general small craft responsibilities. This is an officer-only division. Though a division, it reports under normal circumstances through the Chief Strategic Operations Officer, rather than directly to the First Officer. These fighters most often assist in search and rescue, scanning approaching vessels, and recon duties, as the Mellstoxx system is relatively sedate.

* Starfighter Groups Juliet (SB4-J) and Romeo (SB4-R) consists of two starfighter squadrons each, one with 12 Valkyrie-class interceptors and one with 12 Peregrine-class attack fighters. They each also contain a recon squadron of 12 Sparrow-class fighters. These squadrons are all broken into two sections of six. At any one time, three sections (one of each type) are on patrol and the other half of that group is on hot standby, switching with the other group every twelve hours.
 +
* Starfighter Group Tango (SB4-T) consists of one bomber squadron of 12 Apsara-class craft and one recon squadron of 12 Sparrow-class fighters. This group handles patrols on the edge of the system and beyond.

But this means that you should keep posts and their storylines relatively small, or at least focused, in scope. People participate in and write on Starbase Bravo at their own pace, and the game by-design is a sandbox for focused and character-based stories. The game also is very open in terms of who can participate and who can write, and to accommodate for this, no player should be put in a position where they have no choice but to write with a certain storyline or other player. As such, no member-created storyline should ''necessitate'' other players and characters knowing about it, to allow people to opt-in and opt-out as they see fit.

=== Communications Department ===
 +
The Communications Section is responsible for short and long range communications, ranging from maintaining contact with ships in the Mellstoxx system to the maintenance and operation of the station's massive subspace transceiver complex, which serves as a major hub for the subspace relay network.

This means no plot should affect the whole station - but SB Bravo is a veritable floating city, with over a hundred thousand people aboard. A lot can happen - even big, dramatic, or dangerous events - about which another crewmember has absolutely no idea, or at least doesn't need to drop everything and get involved. Think about it this way: if your idea would necessitate one of the senior officers being informed—a major disease outbreak, an accident involving a starship in the docking bay, an external security threat, major damage to station components—it is likely too big for a member-initiated plot line, so it would be best to ask about it first.  
+
== Security Division ==
 +
The Security Division is responsible for the internal security of Starbase Bravo, which normally means law enforcement on the promenade and other areas. It is divided into 10 Security Precincts, which serve the same role as Departments in the other divisions.
  
Keep in mind, too, that Starbase Bravo's content is restricted to 111 on the RPG Ratings scale. More information on acceptable content is found in the rules.

=== How to Write ===
+
== Engineering Division ==
The Starbase Bravo staff will create a mission approximately every six months or sometimes for an applicable fleet-wide [[Campaign]], which will lay out the present storyline. You can directly post in this mission, either on your own or with other people.
+
The Engineering Division is responsible for the maintenance and operation of the station's systems, especially the main reactor, as well as for building and repairing starships.

It's considered polite to request a joint post with someone ''before'' you start the post, so reach out on Discord. If you have a higher tier position in a department, try to be willing to write with others as much as possible. Again, check the rules on content guidelines, and the guide on joint writing if you need technical assistance.  
+
=== Reactor Department ===
 +
The Reactor Department is responsible for the maintaining and operation of the starbase's main and auxiliary reactors, as well as the associated power grid systems and the station's propulsion systems.

== Advancement within Starbase Bravo ==
+
=== Maintenance Department ===
There are seven tiers of positions, each of which have rank guidelines. These tiers contain increasingly more specialized and increasingly more senior titles. At each tier the number of positions available gets smaller, because realistically there can only be so many Heads, Deputy Directors, and Directors. Access to these tiers rests on your contribution to the sandbox by writing joint posts, which is a model that is widespread in the wider RPG universe. The actual positions available are listed in the [https://wiki.bravofleet.com/index.php/Guide:Starbase_Bravo_Positions Starbase Bravo positions guide]. Members may earn access to the first six tiers, with the sixth tier being reserved for members of the Bravo Fleet Senior Staff, the Deputy Intelligence Officer, and the Deputy Operations Officer and the seventh tier being reserved for the Intelligence Officer and Operations Officer.
+
The maintenance department oversees the day-to-day maintenance of all systems of the starbase, including its hull and structural sections, its environmental systems, and all computer systems.

Note: You are not ''required'' to change your character's position or rank just because you have access to a higher tier. You're also not required to keep the same character, or only use your original character, when promotion to a particular position or rank wouldn't make logical sense for the character's age and service record. (i.e. You don't need to end up a 22 year-old commander because that's what position tier you gained access to.)
+
=== Shipyard Operations Department ===
 +
The Shipyard Operations Department is responsible for the station's docks and shipyards, overseeing the maintenance and refits of visiting ships, the shipyard construction sections, and the maintenance of auxiliary craft assigned to the station.

Revision as of 20:33, 7 January 2023

The purpose of this guide is to show you how positions work on Starbase Bravo, including which tiers gain access to which positions and then how those positions fit into the chain of command. For your very first character, you'll be selecting from Tier I positions, until you earn enough Duty Ribbons to advance through the tiers, as explained in the main Starbase Bravo Guide.

To navigate this guide, scroll down to the area you're interested in, and it will list the positions available in each Division, Department, and Section. As you gain access to new tiers, you can choose to promote your existing characters or create a new character. You do not need to stay in the same department/section/division, either. Note: the rank guidelines are not precisely even within each tier across all of the possible position types, to account for some slight variation based on the nature of the particular position.

For more information on all of these positions, checkout the Starfleet Onboard Departments category.

Command Division

Starbase Bravo's commanding officer is currently Vice Admiral Thomas Belvedere, dual-hatted as the sector commander for the Mellstoxx Sector, overseeing all general Starfleet operations in the sector not tied directly to the Fourth Fleet. He is assisted by Captain Javier Reyes, the Executive Officer. While Starbase Bravo hosts the Fourth Fleet's senior command staff, they do not generally interfere directly in station operations except in times of immediate crisis requiring the response of the fleet itself.

In addition to the departments listed below, there are some personnel that are directly part of the Command Division and not a particular department or section. Deck Officer is the title given to command division generalists who haven't yet been assigned to a department, and in this role they assist as needed, especially by greeting new arrivals at the various docking bays to accept their transfer orders and help them get where they need to go. Watch Officers supervise Station Operations and other control centers in the absence of more senior officers.

Flight Control Department

The Flight Control Section is responsible both for guiding starships into their berths and small craft launch and recovery procedures, as well as for piloting the station's assigned small craft. These command division officers are numerous, as the station has hundreds of small craft and coordinates thousands of dockings every single day.

  • The Small Craft Section is the station's pool of pilots for shuttles and runabouts. Personnel from this section are often assigned to pilot fighters as well, as needed.
  • The Space Traffic Control Section is responsible for guiding ships into dock and managing the space around the station. They work from Station Operations, as well as many control rooms spread around the station, one per hanger and several in each major docking complex.
  • The Hanger Operations Section is responsible for the movement, storage, and resupply of craft and starships within the station, in the main spacedock and in its various hangers. Repairs, however, are conducted by the Shipyard Operations Section.
  • Generalists can work in any of these sections, as needed.

Administration Department

The Administration Department encompasses a wide variety of officers and specialists who make sure the paperwork necessary for keeping such a large base running is handled efficiently. This ranges from helping with crew transfers and the administration of records, to providing one-on-one support for officers in other departments and the station's command staff through the support section.

  • The Records Section maintains the station's administrative archive, which contains every log created by every member of the station's crew, as well as the logs from ships assigned to the Mellstoxx Sector. They make sure that everything is filed and coded correctly, and handle everything from collating birth and death records to applying the appropriate classified information standards to various files.
  • The Personnel Section handles transfers, promotions, enlistments, retirements, and other personnel-related matters. They serve as career advisors, as well.
  • The Support Section (sometimes erroneously called the Yeomanry Section) encompasses all of the stations hundreds of yeomen, who assist senior officers and other personnel in the completion of their duties, run errands, and make deliveries. This section includes both non-officer and officer yeomen.
  • Generalists in the administration department go between these different sections as needed.

Civilian Affairs Department

The Civilian Affairs Department is responsible for meeting the needs of the station's large civilian population. This ranges from mediating disputes, assigning quarters, and training on safety to organizing recreational and educational programming. This department includes some civilians in senior roles.

  • The Public Relations Section handles communications between the station's administration and its civilian population, through daily briefing messages, several visual and holographic informational programs, and press briefings.
  • The Recreation & Morale Section handles organizing programs for residents and crew related to physical and mental well-being, cultural events, and other enrichment programs that range from sporting tournaments, arts and crafts days, and theatrical performances.
  • The Education Section is responsible for operating the station's four high schools, eight middle schools, and sixteen elementary/early childhood schools, which provide a standardized Federation education to residents and the families of officers alike.
  • Civilian Affairs generalists are usually assigned to solve disputes and help finesse housing assignments to make everyone happy, but also work in public relations or recreation when necessary.

Diplomats and Foreign Agents

As a major starbase, Starbase Bravo plays hosts to multiple Commissions from various Federation member worlds and Consulates from foreign powers.

  • Federation diplomats represent the interests of their homeworlds to the CO of Starbase Bravo and to Fourth Fleet leadership, as well as providing some limited services to citizens from those worlds. Not every Federation world has a presence on the base, but Betazed's delegation is particularly large because the colony the station orbits was founded by the Betazoids.
  • Alien diplomats represent the interests of foreign powers to the CO of Starbase Bravo and to Fourth Fleet leadership, as well as providing consular services to their citizens. Not every foreign power has a consulate on the station, but as it is home to a numbered fleet, many do.

Intelligence Department

The Intelligence Department is responsible for gathering information within the Mellstoxx system and the sector at large, primarily through the interception of communications signals (Signals Intelligence), through direct observation via the station's sensors (Sensors Intelligence), and from sapient sources (Sapient Intelligence).

  • The Signals Intelligence Section uses the station's communications arrays to intercept all transmissions in the Mellstoxx system and surrounding sector, looking for patterns in who is sending messages to whom, the encryption being used, and direct interception of messages, when permitted by Federation and Interstellar Law.
  • The Sensors Intelligence Section uses the station's sensor arrays to keep a direct eye on all ships in the system and surrounding sector, where permitted by Federation and Interstellar Law. They are especially concerned with tracking foreign vessels within the station's area of influence, particularly cloaked vessels.

Starfighter Division Sierra Bravo Four ("Sentinel Division")

As a major defensive installation, Starbase Bravo hosts a permanent starfighter division of 64 craft, split across 2 groups, and 8 squadrons. Starfleet frequently assigns pilots to this division for training in formation maneuvers and to gain piloting hours. Some pilots split their time between fighter duties and general small craft responsibilities. This is an officer-only division. Though a division, it reports under normal circumstances through the Chief Strategic Operations Officer, rather than directly to the First Officer. These fighters most often assist in search and rescue, scanning approaching vessels, and recon duties, as the Mellstoxx system is relatively sedate.

  • Starfighter Groups Juliet (SB4-J) and Romeo (SB4-R) consists of two starfighter squadrons each, one with 12 Valkyrie-class interceptors and one with 12 Peregrine-class attack fighters. They each also contain a recon squadron of 12 Sparrow-class fighters. These squadrons are all broken into two sections of six. At any one time, three sections (one of each type) are on patrol and the other half of that group is on hot standby, switching with the other group every twelve hours.
  • Starfighter Group Tango (SB4-T) consists of one bomber squadron of 12 Apsara-class craft and one recon squadron of 12 Sparrow-class fighters. This group handles patrols on the edge of the system and beyond.
