"Purphaps a watch then"

Gordon returns to the Embassy.

[Lars]

[Lars]

as i said we will discuss this whit the admirality ambasador!!

[Frank Gordon]

(I was in no way involved in the plot. Just someone you wished <----- to come along. And i said yes, now i have changed my mind due to conduct you took to keep me here and rudeness)

"were would we go? Vorak is in his office i think doing something important and Montrell has called a senior staff meeting for the station, which i think i need to attend. I will mention it there and inform you of what he thinks. Good trip Mr. Lars"

[Frank Gordon]

(this can be the last ooc post, i won't be posting here after. if you havn't read what Vorak said you can. I think you should. all i'll say is, leave me alone, i never was acually 'in' the mission. I doubt i ever will in the future. but i'll leave on good terms. Good luck.)

"Commander, incase you were not aware, we are looking at the prospect of another long war with the Domminion. They have had time to analise our tatics and come up with contermeasures to them. Should they decide to attack the outcome of this war could see you working as something far less becoming of a Chief Engineer, like working in one of their mines, or a Jem'Hadar breeding facility," I said to the reluctant engineer, "so by degrading yourself with this task, you may prevent such an outcome from being the case. Besides, you wouldn't want some crewman to load a part that would damage your precious engines?" I joked.

[Lars]

gentleman please calm down ther is planty of time to look at the engines but for now i want you to load the suplies

off: when the amsterdam returns you will need to post at an other site (i will give you the URL before we leave) becuase gamma division is merging whit an other fleet but we will stay a part of expansion  and btw mark nice id card

[Chris Blaisdell]

OCC: well, when the ship returns to KBS Denvor, I will send over a few power modules for you to install. They should boost the power of the ship by 30% each.

[Lars]

well i gues you both have the right to know. After the dominion war the federation signed a threaty whit hte dominion off course there are always a few who dont agree but a few weeks ago they attacked a constuction site for a new starbase the amsterdam found out that it was the work of dominion rebels they have a base we recently dstroyed and a week ago i got word that they wanted to discuss a posible threaty. And for this ship it is a new experimental Steamrunner refit starfleet wanted to slowly decomision all the steamrunners from the fleet but a few engineers thought that whit the right refits it could match a modern prometheus. so trust me the ship is quite safe

During the late 2380's Starfleet became increasingly worried about the outdated steamrunner class starships.
The Steamrunner refit design was fielded in the early 80s along with the Saber as part of a major fleet wide program of modernization. Essentially the Steamrunner's serve a similar function to the modern day sovereign class - a larger, faster counterpart to the cruiser class ships which would be deployed in large numbers to augment the more capable designs. The first of the class was launched in 2381, and series production began after a six month flight test program.The new refit also came whit new weapons and defenses 2 extra phaser banks were aded its 2 normal rapid fire photon torpedo bank was replaced by 2 rapid fire quantum torpedo launchers it new wapr core made it it cruising speed go from warp 6 to 7 and max speed from 8.99 to 9.975.

"Montrell acually, he is Avalon CO. Ifi recall Vorak asked you if you had asked me. So he must believe i have a choice in the matter. Nevertheless if you force me i will go. But i will appeal to the Senior Admirality. I do not feel Gamma has the right to take on and command another divisions officers. Do you Admiral?"

"So..the ship isn't? Then thats what I should be doing probally, it is the more wise thing at least. I can probally get power from the impulse engines more, if we need to flee the impulses won't save anything"
