Greetings, Captains!

Some of the greatest moments in Federation, Klingon or Romulan history came when a group of captains came together to face a greater threat. Now, we want to give you the opportunity to make your own history. Starting on December 12th, 2016, we'll be holding a Fleet Photo Contest for Captains flying on all platforms. Here's how it works:
  • Get together with at least four of your fleet mates and go join one of our Fleet Action queues.
  • While you're defending the galaxy, get a screenshot with your entire party and post it in this thread.
  • A panel of esteemed judges will narrow the results down to the top ten, and then you will vote for the winner as a community.
  • The Captain who captured the best screenshot as voted by the fans will win 50,000 Fleet Dilithium. Second prize will receive 25,000, and third prize will receive 10,000.
  • You can take these photos on the ground or in space.
  • Above all, be creative and have fun.

This content runs until Monday, December 19th, so beam up, grab your friends, and get your cameras ready. When the contest ends, we will start a new thread for you to vote on the winners.

FAQ

Q: What's a fleet action queue?
A:
strathkin wrote: »
A Fleet Action Queue are PVE Q's that identify as exactly that. If you scroll through CREATE PRIVATE which is the 3rd tab for PVE Q's you'll see 3 or 4 for both Federation & Klingon Fleet's.

If you are Federation you can search out Klingon Scout Force. :)

Q: Can we use Photoshop?

A: Please only use direct screenshots from the game.

    Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

    A Fleet Action Queue are PVE Q's that identify as that.

    NOTE: In PvE Queues if you select the 3rd tab CREATE PRIVATE to the right of Quick Play, you'll see several listed as Fleet Action for both Federation & Klingon Fleet's.

    If you are Federation the following are fleet action queues:
    Starbase Fleet Defense -Space
    Gorn Minefield -Space
    Klingon Scout Force -Space
    Starbase 24 -Space
    Crystaline Catastrophe -Space
    Breaking the Planet -Ground
    The Big Dig -Ground

    If you are Klingon the following are fleet action queues:
    Starbase Fleet Defense -Space
    Federation Minefield -Space
    Crystaline Catastrophe -Space
    Breaking the Planet -Ground
    The Big Dig -Ground

    You may also enter some of the Q's form the Quick Play tab but you'll want to USE the 3rd tab: Create Private so the instance is populated with all fleet members.

    So it can only be Fleet Action Queues, and not any other Que such as Infected Space Elite, or deep space encounters?

    Apparently people not using PVE Q using CREATE PRIVATE Q and loading one of the Fleet Action Queue's. Fleet Dilithium is also not worthless but should be considered highly prized after all with fleet project's you can easily turn it into 50,000 Fleet Credit's to buy some very nice consoles or gear. :)

    None of the fleets which any of my toons are in would ever do this sort of thing together. : (

    It appears that apparently myself and BBCode don't get along since the last update to the arc forum. I've tried virtually everything I can think of yet it's absolutely refusing to display my photo entry above.

    Thanks for the extension, I need a day or two extra to clean up and get organized (we have a starbase, we have a bar, 'nuff said). ;)

    Based on my current avatar, now the torso AND the hands are off.

    It's alright, Mikey. Making your character look just right is a long and arduous process. I'm sure you'll get there in the end. :)
