Dark Armada ends, but see what comes next...

January 23, 2016

After producing episodes for over 10 years Star Trek Dark Armada will come to an end. Our upcoming episode "Out of Time" will be our final episode. But... it doesn't end there.

With all the experience and support we have at our disposal we'll be restarting our fan production under a new name that will probably be familiar to you if you've watched Dark Armada.

Star Trek Batavia

With Dark Armada we somehow ended up using the name of our main enemy which of course limits the Star Trek stories we'd like to tell. So that's why Star Trek Batavia carries the name of our main ship; the refitted Nova class starship U.S.S. Batavia.

The new ship for Star Trek Batavia has already been created by our modeler Gwen Demulder. And none other than Mark Rademaker is working on a complete redesign of the Batavia bridge. Our brand new Batavia logo is made by our graphic designer Jordy de Lat.

Some of the characters will remain and we'll be focusing much more on the story and acting. We'll release more on that later. If you want to be the first to get all the news, previews and releases you can subscribe to our newsletter.

We hope you will enjoy our final upcoming episode of Star Trek Dark Armada and please stay tuned for Star Trek Batavia! Keep on Trekkin'!

Our Episodes

Watch the episodes of Star Trek Dark Armada

These Are The Voyages...

episode 0 - September 2006

This episode was intended to be a 'test episodes' rather than an actual episode for the series. It was a test to see what it would take to make a short episode using green screen/keying technology and what improvement would have to be made to master this technique.

Worst Nightmare

episode 1 - March 2009

Richardson and Katina find the U.S.S. Batavia at drift in space as they return from a shuttle mission. The crew seems to have disappeared..

Choices, Part One

episode 2 - October 2009

In "Choices, part one" the crew of the Batavia discovers a situation with planet Y'nok that took place in the past. How is this related to the current volatile situation?

The event "Elf Fantasy Fair" asked us for a film making workshop. With five attendees, we shot and edited the episode in a tent within eight hours.

It's Dark... Get Over It

episode 5 - January 2013

This vignette was made using 'old' footage from 2007. The scenes were deleted from a later version of the script for the episode titled "Nightfall". The vignette was released before "Nightfall" as a bit of a preview what's to come.
