<ref name="NoteDating">All materials for the FASA-produced [[Star Trek: The Roleplaying Game (FASA)|''Star Trek:'' The Roleplaying Game]] referred to events by a FASA-specific dating standard called the "Reference Stardate." All dates in this article have been adapted from that notation into standard calendar dates, which are then adjusted for errors in the baseline dates used as reference by the FASA authors. Working with a known, dated event (e.g., the launch of the [[Constitution class|''Constitution'' class]] starships), the other dates in the timeline can be adjusted accordingly. "The Four Years War" gives the launch of the ''Constitution'' class as Reference Stardate 1/8801.04, or 04 January 2188; this has been established on screen, however, as having occurred in 2245. As the exact month and date remain unstated in other sources, those remain the same, but the year is adjusted to 2245, giving a modified date of 04 January 2245. This can then be converted into the pre-[[Star Trek|TOS]] stardate system established in [[Star Trek (Film)|''Star Trek'' (2009)]], giving us a stardate of 2245.004. Using this as a baseline, all other dates in the FASA timeline can be similarly modified and converted. The ''Nelson'' class was noted as becoming operational on Reference Stardate 1/8804; converting as stated previously gives a modified date of April 2245.</ref>

Nelson class (FASA 2011; Original B&W file)

The Federation Starship Nelson was the prototype of the Nelson class scout,[1] and was commissioned on Reference Stardate 1/8804 (April 2245).[2] The ship was lightly armed, with only phasers and no photon torpedoes for defense. The Nelson was designed to fill the need for small, lightly armed vessels to be used by Exploration Command in areas away from known borders with potentially hostile groups. It carried three shuttlecraft, and had laboratories and exploratory/ research facilities. It usually was deployed alone, not with fleets.[1]
