The Star Trek Online Alliance Network or STOAN is a cooperative gathering of independent fleets and longterm players who work together for common goals like active teaming, events and helping other players.
We welcome both KDF and FED faction Romulan and Reman affiliates, as well as Delta players. I myself have multiple Romulan/Reman chars and my space main is a RDF on both Fed & KDF .
Romulan and Reman players, fleets, and armadas can apply to join or ally themselves with our network. If you're a player, if accepted after review you get your choice of fleet to join or if none, can be auto-positioned by admins according to the info on your application where you can find a good community with players of similar interest.
If you're a fleet, if accepted after review, there is a period of negotiation. Typically if both sides are in agreement, your fleet leader becomes a leader in the alpha fleet and your fleet takes an agreed upon position in the armada. Leaders of fleets in the armada effectively become co-leaders of the Network and members of your fleet are now able to vote for any changes and improvements, as well as access STOAN's channels and services, help anyone in the armada and freely travel between any of the fleets therein. Each fleet's autonomy is retained in this process and participants gain equal interest in managing the network, much like the states of a nation.
Fleets can ally themselves with us even without participating in STOAN. Armadas can also ally themselves with us, provided all the fleets in them are in agreement. If you have any questions, feel free to post a reply, message us in PM or mail us in game @xtern1ty.

★ Section 4 - Articles of Armada
Sensible guiding principles to maintain long-term fleet partnerships.
Article
~ 1.1 -
All members of fleets in the Armada work together cooperatively as equals, regardless which fleet they are from or their Alpha/Beta/Gamma position in the Armada.
~ 1.2 -
The Alpha fleet is neutral territory for all fleets, jointly managed by all Armada fleet leaders who are responsible for it's building and well-being. Working together thus, no fleet in the Armada can claim superiority over the other; but all stand united in shared responsibility.
~ 1.3 -
Leaders of the Armada fleets share the responsibilities of managing, maintaining and building the armada along with all the fleets in it; as well as the Armada's ally network and associated main channel XTERN1TY.
~ 1.4 -
Active leaders and members shall convene monthly in RoundTable conference to coordinate, plan and discuss ideas or to just meet and keep in touch.
~ 1.5 -
All admins/leaders should manage responsibly and strive to resolve any issues that may arise with understanding. They should regularly communicate with other other admins/leaders to maintain good relations.
~ 1.6 -
If a member of any fleet in the armada is being disruptive, admins who notice it first should tactfully relate it to the Leader or active admin of the member's fleet so they can take care of it. Admins told of disruptive activity should be understanding and resolve issues without it disrupting good relations or alliances of any fleet in the network.
~ 1.7 -
Leaders and Admins of any fleet in the Armada are free to create and host events in the main channel, for members of all network fleets to participate. They shall be free to recruit and invite other players and fleets into the Armada until it is maxed.
~ 1.8 -
Recruiting should be conducted outside of the network. Fleet leaders shall not invite any member of any other fleet in the Armada without permission of it's fleet leader or lure any members away from their home fleet to increase their own player base. However members of all armada fleets are free to build, travel and be invited between any fleet in the Armada.
~ 1.9 -
All Armada fleet leaders shall be channel moderators of the XTERN1TY channel and able to invite at will, with the exception of banned disreputable players according to the list. As moderators with full mute/kick powers they will be watchful for banned or disruptive users and spies, to mute/kick them accordingly.
~ 1.10 -
Recruiters should invite members to join /channel_join XTERN1TY upon joining any of the Armada's fleets, so they can use the channel and its services.
~ 1.11 -
Players who have Teamspeak should join and gather at Teamspeak managed by fleet Orion Cygnus. Players who have Raidcall should join and gather at Raidcall managed by fleet Thrasher Command.
~ 1.12 -
Harassment (i.e.: persistent name-calling, stalking, trolling, or other form of shameful attack, whether in-game, on the forum or on an off-game site) towards any member of any fleet in the Armada because of their chosen affiliation in our network will be considered an affront to all. All fleets shall protect each other equally and confront adversaries in unity.
~ 1.13 -
This network and its fleets are a peaceful gathering of Star Trek Online players and shall not engage in any offensive action without first being attacked; (i.e.: persistently trolled, naming and shaming, bullied etc...) and no action should be taken alone in response to such behavior. However we reserve the right to act in any unified means necessary, including reporting, vocal opposition and using any harmful methods used on us upon attackers; to condemn and deprive game enjoyment in return to individuals or groups engaging in such acts upon our members until they cease or are removed.
~ 1.14 -
The goal for all builders in the Armada shall be to make all fleets in the Armada T-5 while maintaining sufficient provisions to provide free top grade fleet gear and ships for all members of network channel XTERN1TY.
~ 1.15 -
The present and future goal for the Network, it's Armadas and allies and it's channel XTERN1TY is to facilitate teamplay, give free access to needed services and help for players, and provide a pleasant active environment for all participants to enjoy what Star Trek Online has to offer.
It is my humble privilege to announce our mutual partnership in armada with friends and longtime allies. It is the successful realization of years of teamwork, started here when we built upon the idea of bringing small and large fleets together for a larger collaborative community not monopolized by any single group, but jointly managed by the individual members.
We are currently the largest known collaborative network of its kind on STO. Together, the fleets of STOAN are home to approximately 3,000 players, in over 20 fleets. For players with voicecom capability, we feature both teamspeak and raidcall, along with a troll-free, in-game, multi-fleet, teaming/free service/chat channel for players who request an invite.
Some of the STOAN KDF fleets are:
Corsairs of Shadow
Swords of the Brave
Qo'nos Battle Order
Invictus
House of Orion-Cygnus
9th Klingon Suvwl'
DOFFCALLS
XTERN1TY.
Among the STOAN Fed fleets are:
Thrasher Command
9th IDIC
Orion Cygnus
Xiphias
The Good Guys
DOFFJOBS
Encrypted Data
Starbase 001
XTERN1TY
If you are a fleet or armada leader and want to team with STOAN, even if you don't join our armadas; feel free to message us here or in private anytime. Some of the advantages of networking with STOAN are:
- Combined teaming. If you're fleet is not as active as it was, you can team with us, start and lead teams in our main channel without having to leave your fleet.
- Building opportunities. Have too many marks? Got purple gear you'd like to stock up a fleet's bank with? We have the room and welcome donors. Similarly if you need marks or help building, teaming with our community of helpful players lets you avail of help from a more reliable and larger array of donors than you can find in public channels.
- Events. Reap the rewards of community-led gaming when you partner with us on multi-fleet network events, such as giveaways, recruitment events, parties and PvP.
Collaboration makes all that and more possible. We look forward to working with you. Dif tor heh smusma.
Regards,
@xtern1ty
