My big concern would be the viability of the BOff. I hardly use my Breen Tac because it seems like his combat A.I. is....gimped. He simply isn't very fast or aggressive. I remember there being threads related to this at one time...
Different from what? What it says on the calender?
Maybe it'll be hot Reman chick Or maybe there will be some cool item available for the ending of the mission for everybody, I dunno.
It would be cool though, if it wasn't a Reman officer, which will most likely be benched because he's uncustomizeable and ugly as hell, but something totally different. The fact Cryptic wrote something somewhere doesn't mean they HAVE to keep it - but yea, I know, expecting a pleasant surprise in this case would be optimistic bordering with foolishness.
Remans are one of the species we'll probably never see females for. And hot? They are to Star Trek what the Nosferatu are to WoD.:D
I'd estimate a quarter of WoW's players find zombie women attractive... and it wasn't that long ago here when somebody linked a female Predator as an example for what female Nausicaans could be and a lot of posters called THAT "hot."
Heck, we had a couple of prominent posters who find Ferengis attractive.
I have a fairly simple suggestion for capturing a female Reman's attitude in two words:
The Breen Boff came racial traits and a ground skill, so you never know, this Reman Boff may come with a unique space skill or trait. Which would mean that not only do you get a new Boff but a new skill too.
Let us not forget how potentially marketable this Boff really is.
You have a Reman covariant shield that makes any ship look Reman, disruptor/plasma weapons already in-game, and scorpion fighters.
I know somewhere out there some creative players are making Reman/and/or/Romulan characters using the alien-gen, outfitting their ship with a Reman covariant shield and scorpions, and will want an all Reman/and/or/Romulan crew.
Each potential buyer will want to buy at least 4, maybe more.

I have a Romulan Alien-Gen character, Romulan Alien-Gen boffs but I don't want a dirt digging slave anywhere on my bridge. Maybe as a red-shirt cannon fodder cause that's all Remans are good for, but only if I can lock them in the brig when I don't need them to be shot by someone.
Meh it wouldn't be to bad if we had slots for these special Boffs? but it just seems like the crew is becoming more and more oddball.
I guess it'd be cool if we had a way ...of maybe having the bridge officers and swaping them in/out regulary. meh i got sciene dude who I don't use i can put him in but my crew is just looking odd now :P

QFT. though i was thinking more of a large bird cage it can hang upside down in while i throw fruit at it.
This was my call simply due to the amount of confusion that immediately pops up about "what is the limited time reward" and "how long do we have to claim it".
I've taken note that we could have waited till Saturday to post it for next time.

despite the fact we got told early i think using the calendar is a great move though. it should clear up confusion for everybody.

Agreed. Maybe next time they can say how long the reward is available, without telling exactly what it is in the calendar. That way, there would still be suspense as to what it is, but everyone could know how long they have in order to claim it.
(Regardless, I really like my new officer. I'm using him as my new 'healer' officer on my ship, with his HE, ST, and TSS. I still wish we could alter his appearance, but at least I really like the way he looks, though.)
Random sci skills (nothing gamebreaking), traits are stubborn + psychic
Actually he has Superior Telepath (should make him a nice expose mule); and Mind Blast (PBAoE Knockback; sadly I suspect this is not the same as those purple mind rays the Reman NPCs shoot at you). He also has Stubborn and Mental Discipline. Nothing special for ground skills; TSS3 and TBR3 for space; I haven't tried playing dress up with him yet to see if he can wear a regular uniform, or if you're stuck with his ugly custom outfit.
The uniform is okay - but bugged. The coat is rapidly tucking and untucking to his right leg. (Similar to what happens with Obisek's cloak during a cut scene in "Frozen")

Can his clothes be customized? I can't be bothered w/ yet another BOFF that can't be customized. People have been telling Cryptic since the first uncostumizable BOFF, that we want the option to customize ALL our BOFFS and yet they continue to put out BOFFS that can't be made to fit in your crew. I find that a lilttle surprising since the team has been fairly good at listening to feedback and what the players want.

We'll see if we get the options when we get the make your XO a captain option. Even though they should start sometime with that. Maybe it will happen then they drop the uniform/off-duty distinction.

Nah. Garak hated cold but he survived on DS9

Thanks, but I'll pass. I've been in enough relationships like that.
Doesn't this describe every woman?

Oh don't be such a pessimist. Give it huge TRIBBLE, flashy hairstyle, some make up - and in worst case, plastic surgery.

While that is a funny idea an open cage means you'd still be able to smell them which is not so funny.
