The 52nd Fleet of Starfleet is a divison of Starfleet that is currently fighting against the forces of Admiral Doenitz.

The sector of space that the 52nd fleet now inhabits is one filled with mysteries and danger. Every part of the 52nd fleet has been moved even further out by way of the Subspace River, to an area of space first defined and noticed by Starfleet Explorers because of a Subspace River Terminus that forms there, a mystery alone that calls for explanation. The area of space itself is rugged, unknown and inviting. There is evidence of several peoples previously un-encountered, of resources in plenty and mysteries in the deep of space just crying out to be explored.

Many systems have been probed already and some have shown interesting preliminary results. There is a system at the heart of this sector that has shown power and other industrial indicators although no starships have been able to get to this system thanks to some kind of protection or barrier around it.

Other systems show more evidence of an advanced species but no sign of them can be found, a through investigation and exploration of this area has been ordered.

Spacedock Phoenix is also located in this general area, in a very quiet and secret system filled with radiation and a high degree of asteroids in which to place orbital defence platforms

Introduction

The History and the Mission:

The Federation has entered a dark period in history.

After learning of a secret plot within the very Admiralty of Starfleet to take over the Federation and remake it after their image, Robert LoDona vowed that he would fight to the end in order to save Starfleet, the Federation and the philosophies which had defined their way of life for centuries. He ordered his fleet; the 52nd Exploratory, to a new position deep in the Beta Quadrant at a Terminus of the Subspace River and declared open hostilities against certain Admirals in Starfleet and their ideals.

He did not make the hostilities known to the Federation-at-large, the specter of full scale Civil War was disheartening at best, and he deemed it prudent to save the Federation and her member-worlds the strife as long as Starfleet could handle the matter internally. However, he prepared contingency plans should the Federation learn of the conflict and be plunged into Civil War.

The future is not yet known, the 52nd fleet has much to do, and few resources to use. The area of space to which Admiral LoDona relocated is almost completely unknown, and must be fully explored and secured as their base of operations. The subspace river has a termination point there, reason unknown. And there is plenty of evidence suggesting that there are several highly evolved races of aliens in the local area.

Then, there is the issue of the coming quasi-war with various elements of Starfleet. Large Fleet actions are unlikely, only one ship at a time can exit the subspace river, making defense of it simple. Any fleet traveling the four month journey at high-warp would be seen by sensor outposts, debasing the element of surprise. Robert refuses to make this a larger public issue, and it was deemed highly unlikely that Admiral Doenitz and his cadre would choose to publicly discredit LoDona and his Captains as Traitors, as such public scrutiny would have the effect of casting the Admiralties philosophy and actions into the lime-light as well as casting the Federation itself into Civil War.

It is the opinion of many that Civil War must be avoided at all manageable costs.

These are dark times, unpredictable times. There are new areas of space to explore and a quasi-civil war to fight with elements of their very own forces. This is the first of many battlegrounds for the future of the Federation. Only the willful will succeed, only the strong will survive.

Listen closely, and you might hear the stirring blast of a bugle sounding off for Freedom.
