Current Mission
With the internal struggles of the former Romulan Star Empire, following the destruction of their homeworlds and the ongoing civil war, the collapse of the Typhon Pact looks more and more likely. Without the steering influence of a strong and united Romulan Star Empire, the Breen Confederacy begins more aggressive actions against the Federation and Ferengi.
In addition, the Tzkenthi begin operating outside their borders and closer to Federation space. Ongoing skirmishes are reported on these fronts.

Crew of the Arcadia,
I'll make this short and sweet. As we transition from the Gladiator to the Arcadia, we have had some moving around go on, but that doesn't stop us from enjoying our writing and story telling. So without further or due, let me be the first to announce congratulations to our new Executive Officer, Lieutenant Commander Liala Ziyal aboard the ship. Take the time to congratulate him and welcome him aboard. JPs are highly recommended and more to come!
