Fleet Admiral Pippen founded the 32nd Fleet in March of the year 2000. He felt that something was missing in the way other fleets operated. Namely, that any fleet should aspire first and foremost to increase the enjoyment of the game for its members. This could only be accomplished by valuing the content of the character of members higher than their piloting skill. This seemingly obvious idea, revolutionary in the Starfleet Command universe, spawned the 32nd Fleet. We have grown from a few idealistic individuals to one of the largest and longest living fleets in existence. Our commitment to the ideals upon which we were founded has allowed us to survive and prosper through seven years that included the transition from Starfleet Command thru Starfleet Command II: Empires at War and Orion Pirates to Starfleet Command III then out into other games and the peaceful transference of the Combined Fleet Admiral position many times.
