<< BACK TO RS001 LOG Fleet Commander Log 00002 ========================= Fleet Commander Amanda Rivers SRU Dodecapolis --- Preperations are complete. We are scheduled to depart JOVE-1 at the start of next tenday. Each individual starship has been outfitted with cryotech, and has had its navigation and propulsion modules upgraded with the parts needed to get to the Far Reaches. The new cryotech will enable the crew to be suspended for 4_096 jovannos. The vastly extended period of suspension, combined with the new FTL module, should put us just inside the Far Reaches by the time AI starts to download us. --- The final fleet manifest of SRU Dodecapolis did indeed turn out much as I had initially planned on, save for one exception: Captain Avery of the USS Kraken, my first pick to lead the Twilight Dusk Squadron, turned out to be far outclassed during evaluations by Singh of the USS Jerakeen. A surprise to be sure. Singh is still early on his career, and displays much of the bravado and idealism of the inexperienced. Still, his composure and effectiveness during the Edsmith Protocol surpassed some captains with twice again his years of experience. Including, significantly, Avery, who became ineffective and inactive when faced with the simulated crisis. While Avery is by far the more experienced and more skilled of the two, Singh has proven himself the better leader. Singh and the Jerakeen will take command of Twilight Dusk, and will benefit from having Avery at his right hand. --- Speaking of ones right hand, I have furthermore decided to place Gustav Wash of the Nicodemus at my right hand and shall expect him to manage most of the day to day operations of Rising Dawn Squadron while I focus my attention and resources on the needs of the fleet. I have the utmost confidence in Wash. He will likely lead his own fleet some day--ah, but I forget myself: none of us shall have another assignment after this one. The establishment of Dodecapolis is both our mission and our fate. There will be no coming back from this one.
