The Romulan version has the same hull as the Reliant.

Given how many times the federation version blew up in movies and TV shows it makes sense.
If so, what a waste.
Things I want in STO:
1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!
Especially since the T1 version CAN use them...

Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

Can you weigh in on why the Rom and KDF versions can load dual cannons, but the Fed cannot?

I really like the designs for the 3 ships so far to me that is the best feature for the ships. I'm never pleased with the spend so much then spend more for a fleet version tactic but it was expected. Whether or not cannons can be used needs to be clarified too. The seating & console arrangement I'm not thrilled about but isn't bad either. The Trait & the power distribution for the 3 ships seem underwhelming & disappointing.
Definitely very sleek designs & well done to the team/person upon that. I want to buy them but given their stats now known I'll probably hold-off till they're on sale since nothing stands-out about them besides good aesthetics.

Cannon to right of them, Cannon to left of them, Cannon in front of them...
Easy there, Tennyson...

I've been told the answer is because the Reliant is a Cruiser, while the other two are a Battlecruiser and a Warbird. It's by design for their specific roles.
You can understand why this doesn't make sense to some people however. The T1 variant can use them, the T6 and thus more advanced version cannot. I personally don't want to use cannons on mine, but I can see why people would, and can see why they should be able too. After all, the T1 light cruiser's been able to use the cannons since 2010.

I had no idea that the T1 Miranda could use dual cannons. It's difficult enough (at that low a level) trying to broadside with beam arrays, I can't imagine trying to use dual cannons on that flying brick.

If the Miranda/Reliant actually has pilot maneuvers that is AWESOME. If not, well, I'm going to buy the ship because I want a T6 Miranda, but there really isn't much going for this ship.
If it doesn't have pilot maneuvers then I won't be spending much time in this ship.
Don't believe the lies in this forum. I am NOT an ARC user. I play STO on Steam or not at all.
> Do these actually get the pilot maneuvers (barrel roll, etc.) or are these just engineering cruisers with pilot BOff seats?

They don't. Only specialist ships (commander spec) have the gimmick of their class. This is not a specialist ship, it's a completely ordinary cruiser.

And as far as the FED on not bein able to use D(H)Cs, it also gets all 4 cruiser commands. It'd get the three battlecruiser commands if it were able to load dual cannons. (Not that I'd be against such an arrangement, quite the opposite, I find it would make quite some sense.)

Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.
Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!
They're not a Pilot ships. My guess as to why they're being called that is because they merely have Pilot-spec BOFF seats, but I understand the confusion.

One is a Cruiser.
One is a Battlecruiser.
One is a Warbird Battlecruiser.
Different ship types function in different ways.

Beyond that, It's extremely frustrating that it only has 3 tactical consoles, that you need the Fleet version to get 4. I absolutely despise the whole "Fleet Ship" thing, but it's at least bearable when it's just an extra engineering or science console (especially now that those embassy consoles are nerfed). But making the tactical the one that is missing in the zen store version? That's abominable.
