| ==3. Star Trek Online ==
| | A new batch of Ensigns gets assigned to the Raven-class vessel named USS Jaxartes. Their mission is to expand further exploration of the Typhon Frontier in areas that Starfleet designates as safe zones. Ensign Praugol, assigned to the USS Jaxartes as its designated Captain, finds itself with a ship half-ready for the long journey. She has to get the crew, the supplies, and the ship working again as Starfleet was on a tied budget when this was approved. |
| #Bravo Fleet has officially supported in-game fleets on PC and on XBOX
| |
| ##On PC, for Federation and Klingon
| |

| |
| #Characters that do not log in at least once every six months will be removed from the in-game fleets to ensure there are enough slots for all members.
| |
| #Members may also participate fully in STO gaming as Klingons on XBOX or any faction on PlayStation, despite the lack of an official in-game fleet.

|
| === 3.1 STO Awards === | | === Ship's Tour === |
| | ====Captain's Ready Room==== |
| | The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the [[Raven Class]] is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room. |
|
| |
|
| ==== 3.1.1 STO Campaign Ribbons ====
| | The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates. |
| # Campaign Ribbons for STO gaming are earned by:
| |
| ## Reaching Level 65 with a single character
| |
| ## As a bonus for specific performance in a gaming-related competition, per that competition's rules.
| |
| # A qualifying submission for this award should contain both a screenshot showing the character's name and level, as well as the character's name in the gaming activity form's text box.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== 3.1.2 STO Strategic Action Ribbons ====
| | On the desk, you will find a group picture of Ensign Praugol and her academy class of 2392. Some scientific accessories such as a Vulcan Dust Globe, a planet mug that shows Federation Founders' planets, and when heated, it offers more astronomic details of those planets. On the side, a Newton Cradle Balance stands that keeps ticking. On the wall, you will find the screen and on its sides two posters that can be changed to any galaxy or star system. Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all. |
|
| |
|
| # Strategic Action Ribbons for STO gaming are earned by:
| | Praugol receives guests in the Briefing Room on her brown couch. She will sit most of the time in her desk chair and turns around to the guest to begin their conversation. A small round table between them can be used for drinks or for placing some PADDs. |
| ## Completing a Task Force Operations (TFO) or Special Task Force (STF)
| |
| ## Earning Daily Event Progress towards a Star Trek Online Event.
| |
| # A qualifying submission for this award should contain a screenshot with proof that a qualifying action has been completed.

| # Strategic Action Ribbons counts for each qualifying action are calculated with the following formula:

| | At the back of the ship, you will find the Observation Lounge on deck 2. When entering through a small door on the far right side (when coming from the bridge), you will see a long light-brown oak table on the left side, shaped in a stretch-out circle. The chairs are custom designed to those you will find in most Starfleet vessels. However, these chairs are also the same soft color as the table. In the middle of the table, you will find a holographic 3D device that can project any ship, planet, or astronomical object shown during a mission briefing. |

| | On the wall, there are paintings of various famous exploration ships. One of those is the USS Enterprise. On the other side, you will find big windows that show the back of the ship and a great view of space itself. It is said that Ensign T'path was mostly found here, as it brought her calmness while practicing her Vulcan meditation. While on the floor before the window, you will find a classic earth-designed carpet with that dark red color. |

When entering the engineering, you will hear the humming and buzzing sound of the warp-core, like a purring little kitty. Within the engineering, you will find various tools and monitoring console to keep the flow of energy in control. Most of the ship had to be rebuilt, and the engineering was no exception from it, so even thought it is an aged ship that has seen quite a bit it has newer equipment. |

| === Ranks and Access Permissions === | | ===Notable Crew=== |
| | ====Commanding Officers==== |
| | *[https://bravofleet.com/command/59811/ 2392 - 2400]: [[bfms_char:59349|Captain Sazra Praugol]] |
| | *[https://bravofleet.com/command/70060/ 2401 - Present]: Captain Salan |
|
| |
|
| * In game there are seven different ranks that Bravo Fleet members can be assigned. The in-game ranks do not match up with Bravo Fleet ranks.
| | {{clear}} |
| * Crewman/Bekk, the most basic rank, is the automatic rank assigned to people when they first join. This is an administrative holding rank, meant for new joins that are not online when invited and for other administrative functions as needed.
| |
| * Junior Officers/Warriors is the second rank. This is where the majority of the membership will be. This rank gives permissions for provisioned ships, equipment and basic rights to the fleet to withdraw from the fleet bank and use chat functions within the game.
| |
| * Officers is the next rank. This is where most of the Bravo Fleet Command members are within the game, as expanded permissions are sometimes necessary for events.
| |
| * Senior Officers is the highest rank that can be achieved by any person outside of the Gaming Department. This is for people that have been helping with creating gaming nights and need a few extra permissions, like to create calendar events.
| |
| * The rest of the ranks are for the Gaming Office members and senior staff that need permissions for fleet related Charter reasons.
| |
| * Permissions within the fleet vary based on needs. All members of the Bravo Fleet STO groups have access to:
| |
| ** Purchase from provisioned fleet stores and utilize fleet shipyards
| |
| ** Access to fleet holdings
| |
| ** Ability to invite non-members to fleet holdings
| |
| ** Limited access to the Fleet Bank
| |
| * All other permissions are directed at the discretion of the Gaming Office.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| == Section 3 - World of Warships ==
| |
| | |
| * Bravo Fleet has established a presence in World of Warships for the PC only.
| |
| ** The console version, World of Warships Legends, uses a different XP system and is not compatible with the PC version.
| |
| * You can find us under the tag [4BF] in game, by the name of "4th Fleet - Bravo Fleet", on the NA server which is closest to the majority of players.
| |
| * World of Warships allows you to request access for the fleet, which you can search for, request, and then mention in the #world-of-warships channel on Discord that you have.
| |
| | |
| === Ranks ===
| |
| | |
| * Everyone has the permission to contribute oil to the fleet base, which you obtain by opening crates.
| |
| * Rank does not necessarily matter too much in World of Warships at this point in time, as no formalized structure has been established.
| |
| ** This may change in the future as the group grows.
| |
| | |
| === Awards ===
| |
| | |
| ==== Campaign Ribbons ====
| |
| | |
| * Campaign Ribbons may be earned for each tech tree country you have earned a Tier VI ship in, earned with XP or by Early Access event.
| |
| ** In-game currency ships do not count, like those purchased with doubloons or real-world cash.
| |
| * A qualifying screenshot should show the country tech tree with the unlocked branch, with the ship either with a checkmark by the Tier VI ship or a silver currency value by it.
| |
| * You can submit a screenshot for each individual country tech tree that qualifies for this ribbon.
| |
| | |
| ==== Strategic Action Ribbons ====
| |
| | |
| * Strategic Action Ribbons are meant for completing events within a team that does not have another Bravo Fleet member present.
| |
| * To get awarded for this, simply show the scoreboard for the round at the end, which you can either get by staying in the entire round or by checking the combat summary after the round is completed through your feed.
| |
| * Actions that can gain you Strategic Action Ribbons are calculated by this table:

| | |
| == Section 4 - Other Games ==
| |
| | |
| * The Gaming Office recognizes that there are more games out there than just the ones listed in the sections of this document that fleet members like to play.
| |
| * This may include:
| |
| ** Party games, such as Among Us, Cards Against Humanity, and the Jack series quiz games
| |
| ** Multiplayer video games, such as Stellaris, Elite Force and Bridge Commander
| |
| ** Tabletop RPGs, such as Star Trek Adventures or Dungeons & Dragons
| |
| * You may count the usage that you do towards these games towards Bravo Fleet gaming submissions for ribbons. However, these will have vastly different award structures than officially supported games.
| |
| ** Campaign Ribbons will not be awarded for any game other than an officially supported game from above.
| |
| ** Strategic Action Ribbons will not be awarded, as the point of this section of games is to play with other members of Bravo Fleet together and the point of the Strategic Action Ribbon is for playing as a single member of Bravo Fleet in a game.
| |
| | |
| === Party Games ===
| |
| | |
| * Party games are classified as any game that has a drop in or out type play structure that does not require a large time commitment. This can include games that work best on mobile phones but also can include party card games or trivia style games.
| |
| * These are always organized in advance as part of a Gaming Night within Bravo Fleet.
| |
| | |
| ==== Combat Action Ribbons ====
| |
| | |
| * As the Combat Action Ribbon is meant as a ribbon to be given for group Bravo Fleet activities, this is the primary award for party games.
| |
| * All submissions for any party games must show in a screenshot the game's lobby for each of the rounds participated in, with BFMS IDs for each player clearly designated in both the dropdowns and, most importantly, the notes for the submission designating what nickname is used for which BFMS ID.

| === Multiplayer Video Games ===
| |
| | |
| * A multiplayer video game in this context is a game that requires a medium to large time commitment that does not fall under any one of the supported games already listed in a section of this policy.
| |
| * As games sometimes require you to "clan up" or you may get recruitment messages from other groups and wish to avoid it, you may use [4BF] in a game to signify membership within Bravo Fleet.
| |
| * This is most commonly an ad-hoc gaming style, so no need for a Gaming Night, though you may want to use one to organize some matches; contact any member of the Gaming Staff and we can help with this.
| |
| | |
| ==== Combat Action Ribbons ====
| |
| | |
| * These types of games can net you a Combat Action Ribbon for recording joint play with two or more members of Bravo Fleet.
| |
| * As there are many types of games out there, the following information must be recorded in these types of submissions:
| |
| ** The name of the game;
| |
| ** General genre information;
| |
| ** How many rounds were played together; and
| |
| ** How long the session was.
| |
| * Unlike other sections for Combat Action Ribbons, this particular section is decided on a case by case basis, as there is a very wide range of games that can be awarded for.
| |
| | |
| === Tabletop Games ===
| |
| | |
| * These types of games are new, and cover traditionally played games played through our Discord.
| |
| * Writing can be involved, but dice and character generation would be part of this.
| |
| | |
| === Combat Action Ribbons ===
| |
| | |
| * For participating in the play of a tabletop game, you can earn Combat Action Ribbons.
| |
| * As there are many types of games out there, the following information must be recorded in these types of submissions:
| |
| ** The name of the game;
| |
| ** General genre information;
| |
| ** How many rounds were played together; and
| |
| ** How long the session was.
| |
| * This will have an earning table posted as soon as we have sufficient data as to what an appropriate way to award these will be.

The USS Jaxartes is a Raven-class multi-mission light starship.
Missions
Start-Up Problems - 2393
A new batch of Ensigns gets assigned to the Raven-class vessel named USS Jaxartes. Their mission is to expand further exploration of the Typhon Frontier in areas that Starfleet designates as safe zones. Ensign Praugol, assigned to the USS Jaxartes as its designated Captain, finds itself with a ship half-ready for the long journey. She has to get the crew, the supplies, and the ship working again as Starfleet was on a tied budget when this was approved.
Ship's Tour
Captain's Ready Room
The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the Raven Class is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room.
The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates.
On the desk, you will find a group picture of Ensign Praugol and her academy class of 2392. Some scientific accessories such as a Vulcan Dust Globe, a planet mug that shows Federation Founders' planets, and when heated, it offers more astronomic details of those planets. On the side, a Newton Cradle Balance stands that keeps ticking. On the wall, you will find the screen and on its sides two posters that can be changed to any galaxy or star system. Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all.
Praugol receives guests in the Briefing Room on her brown couch. She will sit most of the time in her desk chair and turns around to the guest to begin their conversation. A small round table between them can be used for drinks or for placing some PADDs.
The Observation Lounge
At the back of the ship, you will find the Observation Lounge on deck 2. When entering through a small door on the far right side (when coming from the bridge), you will see a long light-brown oak table on the left side, shaped in a stretch-out circle. The chairs are custom designed to those you will find in most Starfleet vessels. However, these chairs are also the same soft color as the table. In the middle of the table, you will find a holographic 3D device that can project any ship, planet, or astronomical object shown during a mission briefing.
On the wall, there are paintings of various famous exploration ships. One of those is the USS Enterprise. On the other side, you will find big windows that show the back of the ship and a great view of space itself. It is said that Ensign T'path was mostly found here, as it brought her calmness while practicing her Vulcan meditation. While on the floor before the window, you will find a classic earth-designed carpet with that dark red color.
Back at the entree on the right, you will find a corner for one person to sit and relax. Dr. Ruslanovna has the hobby of creating something of every mission in the form of a beautiful painting. It is in this corner that these small paintings are hanging.
Main Engineering
From deck 1 to 3 you will find in the middle of the ship the heart of all its power, the main engineering. When entering the engineering, you will hear the humming and buzzing sound of the warp-core, like a purring little kitty. Within the engineering, you will find various tools and monitoring console to keep the flow of energy in control. Most of the ship had to be rebuilt, and the engineering was no exception from it, so even thought it is an aged ship that has seen quite a bit it has newer equipment.
