WHAT IS OUTBOUND HOPE?
The Outbound Hope Mission is a multi-day, live-action roleplaying event intended to give players the realistic, immersive experience of being aboard a space-bound starship.
Hosted within the interior of the decommissioned USS Edson in Bay City, Michigan, players will be engaged in four days of exciting science-fiction adventures and missions. For the duration of the event, the Edson will be outfitted to serve as the Flame of Liberty, a 23rd-century starship proudly protecting a fleet of colonists in the unknowns of space. With a crew of more than 100 individuals, players will need to work together to fulfill duties and objectives unique to their character.

The Outbound Hope Mission was supposed to be humanity’s next step forward. More than 70 military and civilian ships moved through the famed Bifrost Station and into the promise of a new colony on a distant world.
But everything went wrong.
Now, stranded far from home, the fleet struggles to survive. Assisted by the remnants of an alien civilization, the fleet struggles against the overwhelming force of the enemy as resources dwindle and hope itself begins to fail…
