    COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENTS

      QUARTERMASTER:
      Th3TrueLuke:
      After being in STO Staff team for awhile and showing a consistent performance in the staff duties as a Personnel Officer, as well as expressing interest for doing more for the Division as whole, I'm happy to announce that Luke is now part of the Quartermaster team. Congratulations!

      PERSONNEL OFFICER:
      MrNeal89:
      Member of the UFPlanets Community since 2015, MrNeal decided he wanted to try help the community division for the game he is very passionate about! Welcome to the Staff Team!

    • VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES:
      The UFP would not be the place it is today without our volunteers who selflessly sacrifice their time to help out. Check out the currently open volunteer positions, and how to apply for one, here. If you don't find something there that aligns with your interests, you can always fill out the volunteer interest form to express your desire for something specific to help our community grow. Use the bottom section of the form for that and make sure you treat it just as importantly as an application for an open position. Put in as many details as possible and thank you for your interest!




    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:

    • CALL OF DUTY BLACK OPS COLD WAR:
      Sunday, 15th November at 1900 GMT/UFP; SFHolo Event Officer Th3TrueLuke Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is an upcoming first-person shooter video game developed by Treyarch and Raven Software and published by Activision. It is the sixth installment of the Black Ops series, and the seventeenth installment in the overall Call of Duty series.

      Mainly be playing Multiplayer, If we have more than 6 we will do private matches or split off

    • WELCOME ABOARD!:
      Sunday, 15th November at 2100 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. Also this is a good chance to get any in-game chat channels and/or TeamSpeak setup!

      This event will be reoccurring each week and will encompass any of the current fleet holdings for the STO Federation/KDF, SWTOR Republic/Empire, what we explore will be determined by those attending.

    • STAR WARS THE OLD REPUBLIC:
      Sunday, 15th November at 2200 GMT/UFP; SFHolo 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.

    • HALO: THE MASTER CHIEF COLLECTION:
      Wednesday, 18th November at 1930 GMT/UFP; SFHolo Commanding Officer Bedders In this event we will be running through the campaigns chronologically (Halo Reach, Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3: ODST, Halo 3, Halo 4, Halo 5). We will split up into smaller fireteams as necessary (some of the games have a 2-person limit, others have 4) depending on how many players attend. Please make sure you have an up-to-date copy of the game that we are playing on the day. It can be purchased from either the Microsoft Store or Steam as they both work together.

      So come, grab the cola and pizza, and relive the legend of Halo Night.

      Good luck Spartans!

    • SINS OF A SOLAR EMPIRE REBELLION:
      Friday, 20th November at 1700 GMT/UFP; SFHolo Commanding Officer Bedders This event will be a multi-hour session of Sins Of A Solar Empire Rebellion using the brilliant Sins of the Prophets mod to bring the game into the Halo universe.

      You can fight as the UNSC in a desperate struggle for survival and the defense of your colonies, or annihilate as the Covenant while leading immense fleets through vast swaths of space; glassing any planets in your way.

      This event will be weekly. If we fail to complete the game within the initial event, we will save and reload next time, and finish what we started. We will likely be on this game for several hours - typically 3-5 hours.
