10 Forward Loungers - Fun level set to maximum

Prime Lorca of Izar

Welcome to the 10F family, comprised of three fleets there's sure to be a place for you.

10F - 10 Forward Loungers - is our longest standing fleet

FH - Fair Haven - our sister fleet

10FH - Starbase Sullivan - fleet for retirees

All of our fleets are friendly, supportive and share tips and guides across our family wide discord server. We believe wholeheartedly in sharing the benefit of our experiences, helping both newer and veteran players. We've snarky bots and bloodwine, behold advice, interesting challenges and weekly awards. Each fleet is specifically tailored to suit different players' styles and Captain level.

10F is a social fleet with a focus on daily targets and events. Led by Fleet Admiral TokinArd and operating out of a maxed level 134 starbase, we have a group of 10 evenly balanced squads, each led by experienced and dedicated officers. Our fleet is regularly ranked in the top 10 during events and therefore we have the following requirements:
• We ask players to have a minimum captain level of 40 before requesting to join.
• We ask players to play daily and any inactivity of longer than a week may result in dismissal.
• We ask players to regularly check Discord for fleet and squad communications and to respond to your squad leader.


FH was founded originally as a retirement retreat, and is lead by Admiral Braai_Man with a starbase level of 120 and event ranks increasing at a phenomenal rate. Focus has changed to a more competitive effort.
• We ask players to have a minimum captain level of 30 before requesting to join.
• Inactivity for longer than a week may result in dismissal.
• We ask players to regularly check Discord for fleet communications.


10FH, or Starbase Sullivan, is our retirement fleet, led by Fleet Admiral FortKnox. Intended for the more casual player where you can just relax and play the game at your own pace. There are no participation or event requirements. Captains of any level are welcome to join.

How was your event? I barely made the top 17k. Every now and then, it's just fun to craft enough to get all the chronitons and stop. We had some go-getters who wanted Archer. They posted shots of where top 1,500 was so we didn't over spend or get left behind if we wanted Archer. It's our version of Borg efficiency.

We also had an internal contest to see who could get get the most honor (equivalent) from a voyage lasting 11 hours or less. Incidentally, Loki won the contest and tends to lead the way in Borg efficiency and "Honor Debt".

If you're interested in chatting up Loki or any of our fleet mates, check out the links above.

Does Bell Riots Bashir look more like a Sith lord getting ready to use Force lightning or a Jedi knight getting ready to use Force healing? And will he be useful in the next event until we get Love Boat Bashir leveled up? Click or tap our Discord link above to join the conversation!

While our unofficial motto is 'Real Life First' our official 10F Loungers motto is - 'Give Your Best, Get Our Best'. This means whatever the event type we've got your back.
Galaxy event? We have a guide every time on which crafts cost the most chrons, and how to avoid them.
Skirmishing? We've a comprehensive list of which crew are best suited to your ship and playing style.
Faction? As well as two easy to follow kick-start guides we've 10 fantastic squad leaders dedicated to providing a great share for their squads to use. Or perhaps passing leadership that week to the F2P who really wants to new ranking legend and has the support of their entire squad.
With 133 players on our discord server we've folks from every part of the world able to give you advice or support whenever you need it. We're not just a fleet, we're the 10FH Family.
So when we say you get our best, you really do 🏆

We've a space available right now in our Fair Haven sister fleet, join our discord interview lounge to meet some of us and find out more.

Are you watching The Mandalorian? Looking forward to Star Wars IX? Watching some old Battle Star Galactica? Babylon 5? Star Gate?

We have captains in many countries and fans of our many "star-adjacent" cousins. Want some friends to chat with between events? In the 10FH family, it's not just a game. It's not just a fleet. It's a community. If you're looking for a place to talk with friends, use the Discord link above. We look forward to chatting with you.

Currently, the Big Book of Behold Advice is going to have slow updates. The Big Book has been around as long as I've been playing. But I ask questions. And you know what they had before the Big Book? Good advice from your fleet. Want an insurance policy against losing the Big Book? Join THE BEST FLEET. That's right, the 10FH family of fleets is the best in the game. They have fun players, great advice, and the author of the Little Book and some pretty sweet spreadsheets - @[10F] Captain Idol himself. Just be careful talking to him. You could fall down a rabbit hole. Of course, that's a totally Trek thing to do, so if you like Alice in Wonderland and/or rabbit holes, then by all means, chat him up.

Let's talk, if we talk about statistics you best strap yourself in!

I prefer talking about cake. Tastier than statistics 🎂

We have a new Challenge running. One of our newer captains, +FH+ Jason, posted the following challenge:

"I've thought of a voyage challenge also. Pretty simple. Longest voyage with ship and crew made up of only the correct matching crew (any mirror on ISS, Ferengi on Krayton, Klingon on Sarcophagus for example) but main universe crew must be on their ship so Tuvok can only be on Voyagers"

I've seen a similar idea floated on here. Giving synergy bonuses for crew matching the ship. Well we've turned that into an official unofficial challenge. If you're looking for that next challenge, then stop by our Discord interview lounge. You might just be the next new captain we're looking for!

Another skirmish, another top 5 finish. We landed at #3 this time. And now we're looking at Torpedo Surgeon McCoy. And we've been talking about the new Wonder Woman and Ghostbusters trailers, which led to Starship Troopers, which circled back to Undiscovered Country.

If your fleet isn't talking about fun stuff, then we can work you right into our conversation. Click or tap the link above to join the fun.

It was a big event for me. After months of saving up resources, one of my squad mates and I wanted to make a run at top 25. I made him the squad leader. He got the share bonus and I used the extra crew to fill one more rental shuttle. Teamwork and communication go a long way toward success.

Speaking of communication, the community makes all the difference in this game. You know what else I heard from my fleet? Star Trek: Picard got picked up for another season. We've got a Discord channel dedicated to Picard. Another for Discovery. People who like to know what's going on can tune in. Those who don't like spoilers (or don't like the show) can tune out.

Episode 6 of The Mandalorian had some great action scenes and made Mando seem like a classy, prudent fellow.

Join us for almost anything you want to talk about. Certain hot button topics are off limits, but sci-fi is pretty much always fair game.

We are currently looking for one captain. We take captains of all player levels and spending levels. We have advice and guides for the best way to spend or make do with the resources that DB gives us. Our squadron leaders always have event crew to share - usually the legendary - and this goes for both of our active fleets. If you're looking for a great group of folks and a good share for the final leg of the mega event, come check us out!

Prime Lorca of Izar

We are technically full, but we could replace a few nearly inactive captains if you're active and interested.

10F finished the mega event in the top 3 every week! Me and my squadron took this past event off for the holidays, but the rest of the crew pulled us along.

FH is waiting on the cooldown timer, then their starbase will be at level 120! Their admiral would like to get a couple regular donors to help finish those last 14 levels. Are you up to the challenge?

I think I'll leave my name as Lorca of Izar until I pull some recap packs. Then it'll be back to Prime Lorca until the next mega event. But what then? Jean Luc Lorca? Prime Picard? I guess I'm more than a little certain about the next mega event.

Prime Lorca of Izar

How would you like to join the #1 fleet (at saving chronitons)? Half the fleet got the new Sisko. 10 of us ranked 1,000 to 1,500 - using the minimum to get the new legendary. We even use a spreadsheet to make sure we're doing the cheapest builds.

If you have crew to level and you want to make sure you're using resources with Borg-like efficiency, check out our Discord. @(10F) Seven of One will be happy to instruct you on the ways of Borg efficiency.

Hey @Prime Lorca of Izar I can confirm I have an entire channel with screenshots dedicated to levelling crew using the most efficient methods in use in the whole of the known galaxy. And probably the unknown galaxy. Also I post a lot about cake. And food in general actually. I like trying recipes from my discord friends around the universe.

ShadowPresence

Hey @Prime Lorca of Izar do you have room for 1 in your fleet? I think it's time I made a switch. My whole squad has gone inactive (and I'm not even squad leader), and after my fleet hit max level everyone stopped hitting our dailies. We're leaving a lot of honor on the table everyday. I'm ready to find an active fleet and hopefully stop hearing crickets in the fleet chat.

Prime Lorca of Izar

Thanks for joining our Discord. We'll try to get you in soon.

It's Tuesday. And a great day to be on the forum. There's some Convergence Day announcements coming up. Our fleet keeps a Discord channel for game announcements. The most recent is always available and it doesn't take long to find other announcements.

Our Fair Haven fleet recently hit starbase level 120! If you're looking for a place where your contributions will make a difference, then we will gladly take the extra hands to max their starbase.

If you'd like to chat with us and get in before the next event, click or tap that Discord link to join the conversations!

We're having a ball in the first 24 hours of Convergence Day festivities! Many of us have been saving honor for 4 months or more. We're talking over some beholds, considering where we might use the citations, and just having a blast on Discord! Use the link above to join the fun.

I really try not to bombard this channel too often, but we have a fun little "contest" going, courtesy of @[10F] Dathon . Here's what we he posted:

Alright, in honor of Pants Worf, let's have a silly challenge. Post your favorite movie quote with the word "Pants" replacing one of the words in the quote. Identify the movie.
Example: Star Wars: "I find your lack of Pants... disturbing"

This week in 10FH:

We're playing around with Pants Worf in Commander and Captain divisions of arena. Partly for something to do, but mostly so we can help some newer players. You see, Pants Worf might just be their key to the upcoming SKIRMISH!

We take our skirmishing quite seriously in 10FH. It's basically the best use of resources in the game. So we try to squeeze everything out of skirmishes that we can. I mean... our fleet rank was well below the average that @÷ Sparrow was kind enough to calculate for us.

But you see, that's a point of pride for us. It's all about using those chronitons to equip the most crew and gain as much honor as we can in the upcoming skirmish. If you want to join us in the fun, please use the link above to start chatting with us now.
