Assembled jointly by the Federation and the Klingon Empire to counter the Borg threat, Battle Group Omega (also known Task Force Omega) is a fleet stationed in the Noro Sector. The fleet is home to Omega Force. It serves as a deep space staging ground for incursions into Borg space and is also a faction in the personal Reputation System. A nearby asteroid belt provides raw materials and supplies for the fleet, while a nearby rogue moon emits low-level delta radiation, which hides the fleet's energy signature from the Borg.
System description[ | ]
Low-level delta radiation from the rogue moon in this region of space helps block the energy signatures from the ships of Battle Group Omega. The battle group is the staging area for the defense of the Gamma Orionis Sector[sic]. Both the Federation and the Klingon Empire hope to halt the Borg advance here, before they can threaten the core worlds of the Alpha Quadrant.
History[ | ]
- A fleet known as "Battle Group Omega" was formed in 2379 in response to the threat by the I.R.W. Scimitar. At the time, it consisted of just eight Federation starships - U.S.S. Enterprise-E, U.S.S. Intrepid, U.S.S. Valiant, U.S.S. Galaxy, U.S.S. Aries, U.S.S. Nova, U.S.S. Hood, and U.S.S. Archer.
- Facing a renewed invasion by the Borg in 2409, the situation has drastically changed. In order to combat the Borg, the Klingon Empire and Federation allowed Admiral D'Vak to form Omega Force, a military force operating outside the structure of the Klingon Defense Force and Starfleet; therefore, captains of both factions are serviced by the Omega fleet. In early 2410, Task Force Omega and other cooperations between both factions led to the signing of a general cease-fire to face the common Iconian threat.
Ships[ | ]
At Battle Group Omega, ships from each faction provide services to the player. The player must be within 3 km of a starship to utilize its services.
