Episode ideas
A) Muster
PCs are first introduced to their setting and each other. As per PCs PCS orders they arrive at either a shipyard (size 5) or starbase (mulitple). From there they are to move to SB 375. IF in (size 5) will be fully completed en route; if in (multiple 2-3) will be loaded onto fighter transport, but not full carrier. Will be ordered to meet up with GF Transport convoy to reinforce convoy escort. En route will be attacked by 2-3 Dominion attack ships. Original escort group will comprise of 2 Mirandas (read atleast one cannon fodder) and one saber.
B) Operation Beachhead Calais
Upon arrival is attached to a task force lead by the U.S.S. Soverign carrying the flag of VAdm Nechayev accompanied by one wing of Soveriegns (lead by the USS Enterprise-E), one wing of nebulas, two wings of akiras, two wings of excelsiors, two wings of streamrunners, and four wings of sabers. Attached are one wing of Vor'cha, one wing of K'Vorts and two wings of B'rels. The TFs mission is to conduct a feint and harass mission against doimion forces on an axis that would lead them to believe that the major offensiveis lead by the PCs TF, and the massive build up of ships at deep space nine aren't targetted at Cardassia. The nebulas will emit false warp signatures to indicate a much larger fleet.
C) A dark afterglow
The sudden change in events have left the TF lead by VAdm Nechayev battered but victorious and intact. Reaching the objective system, used as a major repair facility. Rather then finding a defending fleet, waht they find is a planet in ruin. A planet that was suppost to contain hundreds of millions of people, now only are sensed to have several hundred thousand, and dwindling. Its network of planetary defense sattilites turned against them, completing the job.
D) Triage
After days that bleed into each other, and a life woes recent memory has been filled with adrenilen and exhaustion, the ireness of the cease fire leaves an uneasiness to what has become common. Tasked to tend to an enemy that has turned on by their allies, while the rest of the TF seperates to do the same eslewhere. Will the PCs be able to coup with all that has been placed on their shoulders?
E) The First Watch
Other ships, other crews, that have been in the thick of it have been given orders to leave the CU and have been given a chance to mend their wounds and enjoy some much deserved R&R. The PCs and their immediate comrades however, aren't as fortunate. Although they have tasted battle, they haven't been in as long as the others have. Thus they are given an expanded AO and are to keep the peace that has obly began to take shape; this is, if it's even possible. With deisheartened cardassians returning to destroyed homes, a military complex with no central authority, and the passage of vanquished former allies the space all around is filled with uncertainty.
