    I have a Romulan character in a Kelvin T'laru ship, and I bought the Romulan Miner Wardrobe unlock from the Lobi Store. I'd like to have all the bridge officers in the matching miner uniform, but the Starfleet officers in the crew can't wear it. Most maddeningly, not the android, which I want for the regular away team.

    Any chance Romulan uniforms could be usable for the Starfleet and KDF officers serving on Romanian ships? At least the C-Store and Lobi Store ones.

    Also any chance we can allow Romulan BoFFs like the popular SRO boffs to wear starfleet uniforms on federation ships?

    in fact for roleplay purposes if someone wishes to roleplay a starfleet romulan for some reason, why not allow fed allied romulans to wear federation starfleet uniforms, and KDF allied romulans to wear KDF uniforms?

    "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
    Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
    he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
    In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
    He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
    He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
    He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

    If they put it in a lock box, then I also expect a bridge. No more of these lazy lock boxes that are missing the premium aspects, where regularly used or not, are the fluff that adds worth to them.

    Hello.

    Any chances we get to re-engineer out ships too? Like sell a very expensive token for like 9000 zen or even 12000 zen that lets you turn an existing not-spec ship into a full specialization one, or even just adding the special mechanics involved. For example like turning a T6 scimitar into a full pilot ship, a T6 Odyssey into a full command ship or a T6 Vesta into a full temporal one... This would extend the use of old T6 ships, revive the purchases and extend the time a presumablly T7 step is needed. I know its a far-fetched idea, no matter how awesome it is :P

    If not, and most likely not will be, any chance we get more pilot ships then? I mean, we have a plethora of full spec ships for Temporal, Command and Intel specialisation (heck I even got a dread carrier with full temporal seating), but outside of the initial C-Store release and an obscure raider (Miradon) and a exclusive KDF only BOP (DX4), there arent any pilot ships :( And thats a pitty since they are super fun.

    About the re-engineering system, can we get more salvage out of items, even at the expense of the mats we receive (since those we can get from other various sources), or maybe lower the amount needed to re-roll an item? It seems a bit of a chore to gather salvage at the moment. Like we get around 100 salvage per item while the cost for a re-roll its 400 salvage...

    Hey :) Any chance the Foundry will get some rewards that'll make playing the missions not only fun and glorious but also a little useful? Like getting titles or accolades or so only available in the Foundry?

    I know this is late, but Borticus could you become a member of the SAG and do the written dialog in audio form that you never did in Boldly They Rode for the 2800 series as well as have it redone so there is no excessive ''Kurland, here" shenanigans. Thanks. :)
