USS Rosenante

The USS Rosenante is a starship currently serving in the Starfleet of the United Federation of Planets. The ship was launched in 2408, and at the time was the only ship of the Rosenante Class. She is currently assigned to the 52nd Fleet. Her Original design was as a privateer, and she was initally to be deployed by Admiral Doenitz to be used against those that opposed him. However the vessel could not be deployed before the end of the Federation Civil War. As a result the Rosenante was captured at Utopia Planitia immediately after the Battle of Sector 001. She has since been refitted and reclassified as a long-range Explorer. Her original designs specifications were part of the controversial Chimera Directive. The vessel's core design encompasses 28 decks. USS Rosenante Deck Plans are available to those with appropriate security clearance.

The crew of the USS Rosenante is considered to be one of the most diversely crewed ships in the fleet. The Officers who serve aboard her come from a wide variety of backgrounds and worlds, each bringing their own unique perspectives and experiences to the overall performance of the ship. There are personnel both old and new aboard ship who all strive together to overcome the challenges and risks that the universe throws at them. They are explorers, lovers and warriors all dedicated to the betterment of the United Federation of Planets and it's principles.

Captain's Log Supplemental

The situation seems to be worsening by the minute. With Trei's actions in contacting the Borg, we find ourselves thrust into a desperate situation.

Because of his actions, we now have an away team crashed on the Surface of Dovek II, just a few short kilometers from the object of the Borg's attention.

Never one to leave anyone behind, I've issued orders to have two away missions conducted. The first is a rescue mission led by Lieutenant Sanok. His mission is to do his very best to recover the survivors of the crashed Lorimar if possible.

Running concurrent is the second mission, a simple asset denial mission. I have ordered Lieutenant Soma to put together a team with the intention of deploying the Antimatter mine that Lieutenant Commanders McLaren and Lorimar were working on. Time is of the essence here, since if either of these two have been assimilated, the mission may be doomed to fail before it's even begun.

To help the success of the Missions, Both the Boudicca and the Rosenante will be conducting an attack run against the Borg Tactical Cube that is the biggest threat to the success of the mission. It is hoped that between the two ships we can draw off the larger ship and in so doing open a covert avenue of approach for the teams to enter the atmosphere of Dovek II undetected by the remaining Borg Pyramid.

If the ploy with the mine fails, I see no alternative but to bring the Rosenante and the Boudicca into a position that will allow us to bombard the target from orbit. The hope here is that once the device is destroyed, the Borg will move on as has been observed so many times in the past.

Allah willing, we will prevail.
