 Emergency alert!  As of stardate 2398.234 the United Federation of
 Planets was under attack from enemy presences.  A Romulan attack on
 the neutral zone as well as an incursion by the Borg has prompted us
 to issue a standing general order of battle.  In conjunction with all
 member planets, the UFP officially declares war upon both entities.

 It is your job, Jean-Luc, as captain of our flagship to halt the inc-
 ursion or even slow it down.  We have recognized one Borg vessel and one
 Romulan bird-of-prey in your sector.  A Klingon ship is being sent to
 assist you and you are in temporary comand of that sector. All star-
 bases are being evacuated.

 May good fortunes follow you...
 Starfleet out.
 þ  Admiral J.P. Hanson, commanding
