Whispers & Shadows | The Cries of Mars
The aftermath of the Shepard rescue takes a chilling turn this week as the crew of the Thunder Bay realizes the nightmare on Mars is far from over. Even with survivors safely aboard, the fires continue to rage across the Martian colonies, casting a long, crimson shadow over the impending debrief with Starfleet Command.

While Admiral Jellico pushes to keep the crew of Thunder Bay Earth-bound, Admiral Janeway emerges as a staunch ally for the crew as they hope to trace the warp trail of the cloaked "ghost" ship last seen lurking around Mars. Lt. Commander Marik also walks into an unexpected spotlight, leading to a defining moment that will change her trajectory within the fleet forever.

Join Girafe and Emcee as they sit down to review and deep dive into the recently released Star Trek Deviations One Shot from IDW Publishing, "Threads of Destiny!"

This special one-shot features Lieutenant Nyota Uhura. In the 23rd century, she explores far-flung star systems with her crew on the Enterprise as part of her mission to communicate and build bridges with life found across the Galaxy. But in the 20th century, humankind was working to build understanding among themselves, with African Americans on Earth championing the Civil Rights Movement and using their voices and acts of protest to end racial segregation and discrimination.

Now, by way of the Guardian of Forever, Uhura is yanked back through time to 1963. There, she’ll join all those fighting for equality and justice and reconnect to why her work as a communications officer is perhaps the most important work of all.

The fire is spreading!

Strange New Adventures, our Star Trek Adventures Actual Play series, returns for a relentless Season 2 premiere. Mars is no longer a beacon of ambition; it is a graveyard choked in ash and wreathed in flame. High above the smoldering ruins, the USS Thunder Bay cuts through a lethal field of shattered starships and stolen lives.

The Parliament-class vessel is outclassed by the sheer scale of the devastation, yet her crew must hold the line. In "Adrift in the Crimson Inferno," every sensor ghost is a tragedy and every distress call is a gamble. The mission is no longer just a patrol. It is a desperate fight to salvage hope from the wreckage of a burning world.

The Cries of Mars have begun. Will Thunder Bay answer? Find out on the season premiere of The Cries of Mars!
