'''Task Force 17''' conducts deep space exploratory and diplomatic missions far beyond [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]] borders from its headquarters on the edge of charted space, [[Deep Space 17]]. As the Fourth Fleet unit tasked with long-range missions of discovery, Task Force 17 has ships deployed in such distant corners of the galaxy as the [[:Category:Delta Quadrant|Delta]] and [[:Category:Gamma Quadrant|Gamma]] Quadrants. Starships and crews assigned to this task force are specially equipped and trained to operate with little support from [[Starfleet]] infrastructure.  


==Objectives==
Non-members shall be allowed as guests in our Discord. However, their access will be limited. If a guest decides to become a member of Bravo Fleet, their access will be modified to a member's view.


* '''Manage''' the operations of Federation ships far from local space, as well as those isolated in the Delta and Gamma Quadrants.
The guidelines listed below are to be considered our server rules. They are expected to be followed by both members and non-members (guests) alike. The guidelines can be modified by the Bravo Fleet Communications Officer or Bravo Fleet Senior Staff at any time. ''Notice will be given in the server when changes are made.''
*'''Explore''' deep space beyond Federation territory in the four quadrants.
*'''Establish''' peaceful relations with native species.
*'''Expand''' Federation interests in deep space, including securing friendly trade routes and exchanging in scientific knowledge with other peaceful nations.


==Overview==
Bravo Fleet does employ the use of a server log bot, of which the Bravo Fleet Command members have access to view.
'''To boldly go where no one has gone before''.' These legendary words have long been repeated and paraphrased by successive generations of explorers and scientists seeking to fulfill one of the core mandates of the Federation Starfleet’s philosophy and are etched into the minds of every Starfleet cadet and many Federation citizens. In a time preceded by great galactic strife and conflict, Task Force 17 of the [[Fourth Fleet]] seeks to embody those principles once more as Starfleet recovers from the atrocities and existential threats posed by the Dominion War and the attack on Mars, to once again rediscover its sense of wonderment and exploration, and return to exploring the final frontier.


Armed with the same ethos and mandate that guided the historic ''Constitution''-class vessels and their five-year missions of the twenty-third century, Task Force 17 is committed to exploring the farthest reaches of deep space. With unprecedented access to both the Gamma and Delta Quadrants, Starfleet vessels return to not simply protect citizens and defend against ideological threats, but to seek out new life and new civilisations, in whatever form they may be and wherever they may reside. To this end, Task Force 17 has dispatched a number of starships, manned by intrepid Starfleet officers from across the Federation and beyond, to make this foray into the unknown.
Violation of these guidelines will incur action from a moderator or the Bravo Fleet Communications Officer. Temporary bans, revocation of server privileges, and other actions may result from violation of these guidelines. A member's status in Bravo Fleet may be affected by their actions in the Discord server.


By nature of the enterprise, Task Force 17 vessels very often find themselves alone, operating far from the vestiges of Federation society or Starfleet support, relying strongly on their guile, character, and one another to survive and flourish in an uncertain and often inhospitable galaxy of unknowns. The voyages of these brave officers will become legendary as they chart new frontiers beyond what is already known by the Federation. Each new discovery will be worthwhile and exciting for generations to come.

==Unit Composition==
==General Rules==
While Task Force 17 regularly dispatches starships to deep space assignments far from Starfleet infrastructure, it launches and manages these operations from its headquarters at [[Deep Space 17]] in the [[Typhon Frontier]]. More distant missions are supervised from the flagship, the [[USS Discovery]]. As with other Fourth Fleet task forces, ships operating in other regions rely heavily on local facilities to see to their wide-ranging duties.

==Task Force History==
==Definitions==
Being one of the Fourth Fleet's many exploration arms, primarily focused in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, when Starfleet decided to redeploy the assets from [[Task Force 9]] and Task Force 38 into one centralised task force then Task Force 17 was the logical decision. In 2399, Task Force 17 was handed all of the fourth fleet's deep space exploration assignments and assets. The handover was relatively simple and smooth sailing, but Starfleet was keen to reestablish a long term presence in the Delta Quadrant. When command of the task force was given to Captain (later Commodore) Bennet, the creation of the lead expeditionary group was Starfleet's first step forward in its efforts to return to the Delta Quadrant.


==== The Archanis Campaign ====
*Moderator: a member of Bravo Fleet Command or otherwise designated member of the Communications Office Staff.
On the eve of Bennet's expeditionary group leaving the Alpha Quadrant, the threat of the [[Hunters of D'Ghor]] increased rapidly requiring Starfleet to redeploy elements from the fourth fleet to combat it. As a result the expeditionary group, along with several other ships, were rushed to the area to bolster Starfleet's presence and remove the threat caused by the rogue element from the [[Klingon Empire]]. Task Force 17's mandate quickly changed as it was responsible in securing several systems and the assembly of the Archanis Array. Within a matter of days, the ships (all led by Bennet) completed their initial orders and removed the threat of the Hunters and were successful in bringing the new array online. Along with creating an innovative way of monitoring the Klingon-Federation border, the task force's involvement in the campaign was instrumental in removing key players and ships from the Hunters of D'Ghor's fleet. Days after the campaign was declared a victory by Starfleet, Task Force 17 supported in the rebuilding of several key listening outposts along the border and deployment of orbital weapon platforms. Bennet, was promoted to commodore and ordered to return his exploration fleet back to Federation space so it could start its mission in the Delta Quadrant.
*Offensive: anything that would go against a member’s rights in the Bravo Fleet Charter:
 
**All Bravo Fleet members are entitled to a harassment-free environment. Any act of harassment and/or discrimination based on race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, pregnancy, sexual orientation, an order of protection, gender identity and expression, age, marital status, disability, genetic information, unfavorable military discharge, status as a veteran, or sex is a violation of this policy and will not be tolerated.
==== Operation: Delta Expedition ====
*Sexually Explicit: nudity, pornographic, anything considered to be over 13+, anything considered NSFW.
A month after the Archanis Campaign, Task Force 17's lead expeditionary group began its exploration efforts in the Delta Quadrant. It's first priorities were to explore what happened to the races that ''Voyager'' had left on good terms.
 
==== A New Home ====
As research agreements were made with the [[Romulan Free State]] and Starfleet saw fit to launch new missions of exploration in the [[Typhon Frontier]], Task Force 17 undertook rearrangements. No longer making use of the lead expeditionary group, it was headquartered at Deep Space 17 in the Lioh System. From there, it has the freedom to launch missions into the deeper Beta Quadrant as well as the fringes of the Delta Quadrant, and has extensive research opportunities with the [[ma:Typhon Expanse|Typhon Expanse]] fresh on its doorstep.
