    UPCOMING EVENTS
    The United Federation of Planets has a good number of events coming up! You can sign up for any of these events here:

    • STAR TREK ONLINE:
      Saturday, 22nd August at 1900 GMT/UFP; SFA Executive Officer Michael Do you feel a little bewildered by all the various offerings at the fleet holdings in STO and TOR? Are you new to the game or have you returned from a lengthy absence? Join us at for an opportunity to see what's on offer at the UFPs fleet/guild holdings. Once the tour is done feel free to join us for some TFOs/Heroics.

      This event will be reoccurring each month in a series of "Tour The Holdings" events that will encompass all the current fleet holdings for the STO Federation, KDF & SWTOR Republic & Sith, what we explore will be determined by those attending.

    • STAR TREK ONLINE:
      Saturday, 22nd August at 2000 GMT/UFP; Special Forces Commander Solace Greetings members! Welcome to Special Forces Saturday! This event is open to everyone to come along and enjoy some jolly cooperation! Its time to save the Galaxy!

      We'll be meeting on DS9 next the shipyard/exchange. Level 50+ character will be required! See you all there!

    • STAR WARS THE OLD REPUBLIC:
      Saturday, 22nd August at 2300 GMT/UFP; Event Officer Michael Greetings fellow Commanders (or ex-Commanders)!

      This event will help our guild rank up, by us completing our personal conquest goals together! It's a lot more enjoyable to get the weekly stuff done, if you're playing with friends.

    • STAR TREK: BRIDGE CREW:
      Tuesday, 25th August at 1900 GMT/UFP; Event Officer Chris Wilkinson This week we will either be continuing the voyages of the great ship Aegis or if everyone has the TNG DLC we will move to the Enterprise D to take on some Romulans or the Borg.

      I look forward to seeing you guys there.

    • LORD OF THE RINGS ONLINE:
      Wednesday, 26th August at 2030 GMT/UFP; Deputy Head of FAB Saelanna The Lord of The Rings Online is an MMO based in the epic fantasy world created by J.R.R. Tolkien. While the game is now 13 years old, it is still attracts casual players like myself who simply want to enjoy the scenery while interacting with characters from this beloved franchise. Set during the War of The Ring you can follow Frodo to Mount Doom, run around Rohan behind Aragorn or relax at The Prancing Pony with a pint of Butterbur’s finest ale. For some of the endgame content you can also play a [small, but significant] part in some of the pivotal battles of the story such as Helm’s Deep and the Pelennor Fields.

    • WAR THUNDER:
      Friday, 28th August at 1930 GMT/UFP; Event Officer Th3TrueLuke War Thunder is a MMO combat game dedicated to World War II military aviation, armored vehicles, and fleets. You will take part in all of the major combat battles, fighting with real players all over the world.

      On the night we will be choosing if we Decide to Fly, Drive or Sail. If player are higher than the rest we please request you to drop down the the lowest players BR (Battle Rank) Until they catch up

    • WARFRAME:
      Saturday, 29th August at 1630 GMT/UFP; Event Officer Th3TrueLuke For the duration of this event, depending on the attendance and on site requirements, we will be able to farm those sweet Relics, unlock nodes and planets, hunt for Warframe parts, materials, blueprints and anything else we can think of. We can also set a weekly/monthly challenge on completing certain stages of the famous endless missions, advise on builds (the ones that know their stuff, not me), and even hunt down the big creatures of the plains.

      As Warframe is a game limited to squads of up to 4 players, depending on the attendance, we will be splitting everyone into smaller teams for the same of including everyone into the fun!

      Looking forward to seeing you all there!

    • THE DIVISION 2:
      Saturday, 29th August at 1700 GMT/UFP; Quartermaster Heyallo Greetings Fellow Agents,

      This is it, We're on the final stretch for the Season, a visit to Jupiter's Moon, Titan, and then on to the Hornets nest! yey!

      NOTE: 4 person group limit, so if more than that show, we will do our best to split into even groups =)




    It is highly recommended that you keep one eye on the events page whenever you visit the site because random events are being added all the time!

    Thanks for reading and we’ll see you around the galaxy! Live Long and Prosper
