If anyone is interested, I updated my public screenshots folder with shots from the new feature episode, "The Vault," along with some shots of the Aegis set on my Sovereign.
I'll admit that the look of the Aegis makes me think of the Monitor (343 Guilty Spark) from Halo.
I've been after stuff like this with my Tac VA (actually, trying for the Borg TRIBBLE at the moment...by the way, where do the shields come from? Infected gives the engines and Cure the deflector, and I got the console from Assimilated), but I can never get people who can finish the ground portions of Infected or Cure. What are the Aegis bits from?
For the BORG Shields, you have to finish the Khitomer Accord-STF.
The Aegis Set (Aegis-Deflector, Aegis-Shield, Aegis-Impuls Engine) is craftable at Memory Alpha for Traces and Anomalies. Take a look at Memory Alpha or at your R&D Progress.
Great, I am a huge fan of Picasa screenshot albums.
I quite like the Aegis set for the Sovereign, I was never a fan of the yellow deflector. I wish I could change stats with that of the Excelsior, if only for turnrate.

That's my major issue with the Sov as well, and the Galaxy too (at least, the Galaxy at captain...the retrofit seems to turn fine, surprisingly). The terms I used for 'em were "beached whale" or "bathtub with nacelles".

The Retrofit gets benefits from the Retrofit cruiser skill the T4 does not get, and you also have a lot more skillpoints for things like extra power to the engines and all that at Vice Admiral rank.
This is what pains me a lot, as I would prefer to use the TNG Galaxy or Sovereign skins, but I simply prefer the 3 Tac Consoles of the Excelsior and the higher turnrate. I know I am not alone, and I think they scare away a lot of fans with the really ATROCIOUS turnrate of the Captain rank Galaxy. It should be exciting to fly this iconic ship, not such a punishment!

Sovy here I come!

I also took a ton of STO screenshots and of other MMOs, maybe you like them: https://picasaweb.google.com/103687334769264813247
