Welcome to the USS Washington-E!

Welcome to the USS Washington-E, a post-Dominion War sim. The year is 2386. The Dominion War has been over for several years, but its aftermath is still unfolding. The Federation and the Romulans are the only two major powers, and only the Federation is stable, to a point. The Klingon Empire is still rebuilding and addressing its many wounds from the war, Cardassia is in shambles and occupied, and the Romulans are in far worse shape because of their own misdeeds than they would have outsiders believe. The Federation is now the lone superpower in the Quadrant, a role it neither wants nor enjoys. Exploration has returned, but the dangers of space have never been more pronounced. Welcome to the USS Washington, where danger and adventure lurk around every corner.

The USS Washington is a proud member of Independence Fleet

» 2024 Fleet Anniversary Message

Posted on Thu Jul 4th, 2024 @ 9:27am by Captain Shran dh'Klar in General News

Happy Anniversary IDF! Yes, on this day 23 years ago, we started simming here at IDF. I am proud to say that I was here that day, and that our ship, the USS Washington was one of the founding sims of the fleet. I was just a wild and crazy ensign working in intelligence at that point, but I rose in the ranks and enjoyed every minute of it. I hope you all enjoy the Anniversary message you find below, and as always, happy simming everyone.
