Bravo Fleet
Deep Space 11 (DS-11)
Captain Maddox has assumed command of DS-11. Tensions simmer with Kzinti observers inbound, Strategic Ops grinding, and a new chain of command snapping into place.
Deep Space 11
Copernicus-class • DS-11 • Ulysses Exploratory Cruiser Division • Task Force 21 • Managed by FCAPT James MacLeod
Perched on the volatile frontier between Federation space and the unpredictable expanse near Kzinti territory, Deep Space Eleven (DS-11) is a Copernicus-class starbase serving as the primary command and coordination hub for the Ulysses Exploratory Cruiser Division.
DS-11 plays a critical role in securing the Federation’s northernmost border. The station facilitates deep-space patrols, forward diplomacy, and irregular response operations throughout the Kzinti Sector, the Typhon Expanse, and beyond. Its modular design supports long-duration deployments, rapid starship resupply, and joint operations with Starfleet Intelligence and the Federation Diplomatic Corps.
Commanded by Captain Leland J. Maddox, Deep Space 11 stands as a shield and sentinel at the edge of Federation space. Serving as the operational heart of the Ulysses Exploratory Cruiser Division, the station coordinates patrols, diplomacy, and irregular operations across the Kzinti Sector. Maddox is supported by a sharp, often combustible senior staff that includes Fleet Captain James C. MacLeod, who maintains his flag aboard the station as division commander, as well as Captain Steven Tancredi (Division Chief of Staff) and Captain Richard Wellborn (Strategic Operations Liaison Kzinti Sector). DS-11 is as politically fraught as it is tactically and strategically vital to Fourth Fleet and Federation interests.
DS-11 is a personal 2-2-2 rated fiction.
Ulysses Exploratory Cruiser Division
The Ulysses Exploratory Cruiser Division (COMULYEXCRUDIV) is a flexible, mission-driven formation operating under the authority of Frontier Operations Command Fourth Fleet, headquartered at Deep Space 11 along the Kzinti frontier. Under the command of Fleet Captain James C. MacLeod, the division conducts high-risk exploratory, tactical, and diplomatic operations across contested and developing sectors where Federation presence is limited.
Established during the Raeyan Incident and refined by lessons from Operation Iron Veil, the division represents Starfleet’s forward-deployed philosophy: agile, resilient, and self-reliant. With USS Ulysses (Sovereign-class) serving as its flagship and USS Unification (Nebula-class) providing scientific and diplomatic depth, the division anchors its efforts from Deep Space 11, a Copernicus-class starbase serving as both strategic hub and political fault line.
The division’s senior leadership blends tactical brilliance, frontier grit, and hard-earned trust — a structure forged through loss and tested under fire. Whether charting subspace anomalies or confronting emergent threats, the Ulysses Exploratory Cruiser Division stands ready to do what others won’t: carry the Federation into the unknown, and hold the line when no one else will.

Deep Space 11 and USS Ulysses
The science annex aboard Deep Space Eleven was quiet at 0620—too quiet, even for Lieutenant Commander Harin’s standards. The bulkheads retained that early-morning chill and the faint thrum of plasma transfer through the station’s core systems had become the annex’s only company. [...]

Deep Space Eleven was motionless but watchful in the void of space. The stars across the region seemed farther apart, their light thinner, filtered through the edge of Federation space. The station’s hull was lit only by its own navigation strobes and internal systems—functional glows [...]

Space was quiet. Not the hollow silence of deep vacuum, but the taut, anticipatory quiet of a held breath. At the edge of charted space, where the Typhon Expanse unraveled into unquantifiable distortion, the stars blinked slower and somehow farther apart. Light itself seemed cautious near Deep [...]
