Hello there,

Thanks for your interest, I am sure we would make a great Fleet for you and I would request that you take a moment of your time and consider joining Darkstar Squadron.

We are more than a fleet, we are also a Star Citizen fan community of friends. I am a Space Marshal backer of Star Citizen, I bought an Idris Corvette and we were lucky enough to recruit Ronin who brings in an additional Corvette. The reason I purchased the Idris, other than to obviously support Chris Roberts and Star Citizen, is that it adds a whole new dimension to the game for the members of Darkstar Squadron. Additionally, with that large of an investment, it is very unlikely that we will loose enthusiasm.

We tend to be involved in a lot of activities with a lean towards a good alignment. We have a group of military veterans, I am one among them, that not only love flight and space combat simulations, but we can add a whole new level of immersion. I also have a 30 minute interview with Chris Roberts come up soon. If you if have a question that has been burning in your mind, there may be an opportunity to get your question answered.

Below is a summary of the Fleet for your convenience. Please feel free to visit our website or ask me any questions that you may have.

Summary of Activities • Bounty Hunting• Exploration• Freelancing• Mercenary• Logistics (mining/refueling)• Militaristic/Security• Smuggling• Trade• Roleplay

Below, there is a section that covers the fleet structure. Do not get too bogged down with ranks and structure. They are only there to add immersion to enhance your game experience. Specifically the Joint Operations Division has a non-military rank structure based upon your reputation within the Fleet. The Ranks are Operative, Senior Operative and Master Operative. The remaining divisions have a single rank structure based upon Star Citizen and real life. Ranks such as Space Marshal, Admiral, Captain, Commander etc.

All of the above activities are optional and the what we participate in is not limited to

this list.

About Us – General Philosophy

Who We Are We are a Fleet that strives to improve the game enjoyment of its members by providing an atmosphere that promotes participation in a fun, low stress and supportive social environment. You will find that we support our members by assisting them in achieving any of their goals. We believe that who we are is clearly reflected by our uncomplicated Rules of Conduct..

Fleet Rules of Conduct

Have fun!This is why we play the game right? Don't forget that fact.

Help others to have fun! It's expected that you play to have fun but that does not give you the right to have fun at other peoples' expense. You should do all that you can to make sure your friends are having fun as well. Regardless of rank or position no one has the right to treat another with indignity or disrespect.

Real Life Comes First!We all have events in our lives that interrupt our plans and demand our immediate attention. Be flexible with those who have had real issues taking them away from the game.

Be Patient! With enough time and effort anything in the game is possible. Learn from your setbacks, work on your goals and be patient.

Be Honest! We do not lie, cheat or steal from others or tolerate those among us who do.
