My initial thought on this was to use this as an extension of our own fleet. As an Alpha fleet, we could create 1 Beta fleet for the sole purpose of fleet alts. This Beta fleet could then in turn have 3 gamma fleets which could be organized however you want into sub groups (e.g. WOK alts, TNG alts, a Romulan only subdivision or what-have-you).
We'd only section off this 1 Beta fleet for our own testing at launch and continue to use this for fleet alts - giving us 2000 slots for alts. This would leave us with 2 Beta fleets that could be invited or have even more "alt" space if we don't want to "Armada up" with another fleet.

Nice idea Binar . I agree with Speed, I think this could be a good way to start ourselves out so we can figure out the new system. Once we have a good handle on it we can then decide if we want to Alpha for some smaller fleets.
I wouldn't mind seeing us venture into this with the Qan Mang, too. We have been having trouble on that side getting the DOff's filled up to move projects along. I have three characters there that can't get a FM donated ever...lol. All three, however, have their DOff rosters full, so it is tough for me to donate that particular resource. So maybe "dipping our feet in the water" (so to speak) of the Armada system with the Qan Mang, might actually be a benefit for us.
Just my thoughts,
Qapla'!

Aaron -- when my Doff roster is full and I want to donate to projects, I mail myself as many of my unbound DOffs as I can, buy the ones I want to donate off the exchange, donate them, then grab my other DOffs back off the mail.

I agree with the idea of using some of the Alt-Vet fleets as test Betas. if only because I can then add my alt Toons to a beta fleet.

Why not just add them to TOS Vets?

after reading all responses I have to agree to taking a waiting approach.
besides speed and protector are in the council after all so they must know what they are doing :p
I am getting more and more into this game as I go on and learning more about it each day, though I would like to see more participation in Fleet STF's and people on mumble :)

Yes, but no one holds that against the Fleet in general.

I agree with creating an alt fleet like Binar suggested.

I have enough alts to spread around, as long as those fleets have high enough level holdings to join the TOS Armada then each one could get the benefits of joining. Requesting cross-faction fleets in the same armada on the STO forums would be a good idea, too.

Hi guys! This did excite me when I first saw it. I wish they had this 4 years ago.
This may be something that gives a little more life into the game OR it could be just cosmetic.
I have a nostalgic soft spot for the other alt-vet-fleets and getting them going. I am not even sure how it works but I bet that if we wanted new members donating and coming out that seeing a fleet like the DS9 Veterans or the TNG Veterans may just be of interest to them. I know I still log-on and have messages from people to see if we have a TNG Veterans lol.
Now that my computer is fixed and I am back from holidays on Monday I can start to help out in any way I can.
I really miss the TOS Vests and all of the shenanigans they get into.

I actually removed 3 "Retired" toons from TOS Vets about... what 6 months ago, when it looked like we were going to run out of space.
I re-added one.
The fact of the matter is that I stacked up too many toons when I was on unemployment and I don't have time to play them all. But, if it becomes a thing at some point, I'll dust them off and keep playing them.
