Montana Station - Bravo Fleet

Montana Station(SB-406)

Starbase 406 is in the final stages of construction as her crew and the squadron begins to assemble.

Montana Station

Canopus-class • SB-406 • Task Force 21

This Canopus class station is a recent addition to the area with a diplomacy and trade focus. Its primary area of interest is the Tholian Assembly. To work to extend and improve diplomatic relationships with this species, it also serves as a waypoint for traders and operators who transport and trade with them.  It is also a waystation for long-distance starships as a rest station. 

It is in the Rital system, with five planets orbiting a young, active sun. The station was named in honor of Montana, where the Vulcans first had contact with humans. Two planets are classified as livable, while the other three are part of a growing natural resources mining operation. An expanding commercial operation has started to build slowly, and adding an office for Harris Transport has fueled interest in existing and future colonial operations in the sector and beyond.  

A recent interest in resources in the sector and the space surrounding it has brought some well-intentioned players. There is also the risk of bad actors—the Syndicate among them—who would seek to establish a foothold in the darkened corners within the station’s area of influence – and just beyond in the far and empty swaths of Federation Space. 

Starbase 406 is home to the Montana Station Squadron, which runs diplomatic and intervention operations in the surrounding systems and beyond to ensure system security.  Within the division is the USS Perseverance, which works primarily as a science vessel in tandem with Montana station’s science labs to continue to explore the rimward edges and areas of Federation space.

Montana Station Squadron

The Montana Station Squadron is a powerful component of Task Force 21. It operates under the command of Fleet Captain Geronimo Fontana, Starfleet. Fleet Captain Fontana commands the Squadron from the Montana Station, a Canopus-class starbase.

Instead, he found himself standing by the window, watching the stars whiz by at high warp. It was a familiar sight, but these were not familiar stars. They were the [...]
