Welcome aboard the USS Yamato!

"The claim 'I was only following orders' has been used to justify too many tradegies in our history. Starfleet does not want officers who will blindly follow orders without analysing the situation" Captain Jean-Luc Picard.

"Yamato". A name which has always been associated with the Legendary IJN Yamato of the Japanese Navy. Originally named after the Yamato Province in Japan, the 20th Century Battleship was one of the largest, heavily armed vessels ever constructed for war on Earth.

Today however, the name Yamato has a very different meaning. Newly refitted with the latest and most advanced technology, the Federation Starship Yamato is a formidable opponent in any situation. The new refits of the Sovereign class included the installation of additional science and specialist laboratories, and extra equipment for long range, deep space missions. As well as new advanced tactical systems and computer enhancements. The Yamato is one of Starfleet's most advanced Sovereign Class Attack Cruisers.

The ship is commanded by Captain Kaede Kayano, a decorated officer of the fleet who is a veteran of the Dominion War. The USS Yamato is assigned to the 7th Fleet, commonly known as Theta Fleet.

The Yamato is assigned to wherever Starfleet needs it to go. One day it could find itself patrolling the Romulan Neutral Zone, investigating why monitoring posts have fallen silent and the next it may find itself on the other edge of the quadrant dealing with easy to anger Cardassians and sly Ferengi who are out to make a large profit in their latest enterprise.

Welcome to the adventures of the Federation Starship Yamato. May you find us an interesting crew, where nothing is ever truly "normal". However you can be guaranteed a fun and interesting Star Trek experience whilst serving on the ship that carries the legendary name Yamato.

"Oh you were serious about that!" Talissa said a little surprised. She assumed the captain asked that question, to cut the ice, and learn the quirks of her senior staff. She stood there for a moment. She then asked, "What's your favorite blend of tea, Captain?"

"Going straight to the hard questions," Kaede laughed. "I like pretty much every type of tea. But it has to be fresh of course. If I had to pick a favourite, I suppose you can't beat a good simple black tea. It brings back fond memories of long ago. Plus, its simple and often…

The Back Story...

"Talissa, thank you for allowing me to take you to the Yamato, its a good ship. And I believe you will have a chance to make some real friendships. The crew is being assembled, no established friendship or cliques you have to worry about." Treyla said as walked into the quarters assigned to Talissa, while hitched ride to Earth. The USS Portland was at Vulcan, around the same time that the USS Perseus was. Treyla commanded the USS Perseus.

"You worry about me to much." Talissa said, trying to sound a little…

ON:

Jodrol stepped through the Holosuite doors and was taken to an old town in the wild west era. Horses and old fashion clothing. The smell and feel of it was more than enough to pull him into that time period. He made his way to the usual place where he would find his XO, Darius Cross. A saloon not far from the towns general store. It was a bit of a wild place, between the fist fights in the streets and the brothel keeper pushing his ladies to advertise their services as much as they can, it could be…

"Regardless of if I asked for it or not. I am still taking over command." Kaede replied. "So, is there anything I need to know about the ship or its crew before I assume my duty?"

"Depends... do you want me to be honest with your or say something that will relax your nerves?" Jodrol replied as he took a seat back behind his now old desk.

"How about you give it to me straight?" Kaede replied as she crossed her arms over her chest. "Trust me, I can take it."

"Okay." Jodrol nodded his head slightly. "The new people…

aaaON:

Jodrol picked up the photo from his desk and looked at it. A picture of him, his XO, and a few other members of the crew in cowboy outfits. An odd picture to some, but he understood the reason for it. It was after a long mission and he granted the crew some much needed shore leave. Knowing the Captain didn't have much to do, they invited him to take part in a little fun on the holodeck. Jodrol was reluctant, but once he saw the setting and heard the premise, he found himself enjoying it as much as…
