About the USF

What is the United Space Federation?

Founded by Admiral Andy B. Clements in 1995, the United Space Federation is one of the oldest Star Trek role-playing groups around. Lead by around 50 simulation hosts, the USF currently has over two dozen Simulations in action. The USF provides you with an excellent opportunity for adventure and excitement in the realm of cyberspace. If you are interested in the Star Trek universe and consider yourself imaginative, then the USF is for you.

What is a USF simulation?

Simulations (SIMs) are a type of role playing game in which you simulate (pretend!) being an officer on a Star Fleet vessel. There are no winners and no losers here. The object is to have fun! For a more detailed description, read the Simulation Guide.

What kind of SIMs does the USF have?

In the USF, there are a variety of ships for you to serve on, including Galaxy, Intrepid (Voyager), Nebula class, two space stations, a Klingon-Romulan-Starfleet hybrid, and even a planetary outpost! We have no academy requirements. You don't have to sit through Starfleet Academy! You jump right into the action and excitement!

Not only do we have Star Trek based simulations, but we have a wide variety of departments to fill your other interests as well, including a monthly magazine, called the PADD, a Research and Development department, and more. See our listing of departments.

What do I need to join?

To be considered for entry into the USF, an applicant must...

• Have access to the internet and an email address. Our SIMs take place on AOL, AIM and over IRC, so we should have a simulation for you.
• You should be able to check your email about twice weekly.
• You should be familiar with the Star Trek Universe. You don't have to know every little detail about Trek. No one does.
• You must be ready to have FUN, make friends, and blast Romulans to kingdom come!
