Vulcans are probably one of the most iconic/recognizable species in star trek - just mention the words star trek and most people think of spock and his 'live long and prosper' gesture =P
We have had a few additions as far as vulcans go... the lirpa, the d'kyr, and the tal'kyr, but I think there are a few other items that could flesh out the lineup. So, I suggest a 'vulcan pack' for the cstore that would include the following:
-The D'kyr Science Vessel
(Includes the Tal'Kyr support craft shuttle)
-The Shran class vulcan ship as a t5 cruiser-class starship (a cruiser variant of the d'kyr, basically)

-The Vahklas class vulcan ship as a t5 escort-class starship (an escort variant of the d'kyr)

-A vulcan shuttlecraft that can both be selected as a shuttle-type ship, as well as deployed as a non-combat pet (like the delta flyer or type f shuttles)

-A unique variant of the vulcan Lirpa melee weapon
-T'pol's enterprise uniform (already included as a standalone purchase or as part of the enterprise pack)
-The in-game vulcan robes as worn by many vulcan npc's, hood included, as a uniform option

-The in-game vulcan ambassador's uniform as a uniform option

These could either be included as a single, very large, very expensive pack, or as individual purchase items (such as in the case of the starships and uniforms).

When is everyone going to realise ex-astris hotlinks get blocked?!
Rofl. I know right. I've had to deal with this for a while. it has gotten annoying.
All you have to do is click and drag the link to open a new tab, or copy/pasta
Vulcans may be a major star trek species, but that does not mean we need dozens of vulcan ships. The one we have tributes them very well and that is enough.
Wouldn't that be for CBS/Cryptic/Atari/Possibly Paramount to decide?
Not that that affects the viability of it as a decent pack idea. It just seems excessive, all this for one race.
To be fair Jexsam, Telbasta did say it could be either one whole package or as individual purchases.
Well it wouldnt really all be for 'one race', even though it is all tailored to one race.
Personally I dont play any vulcan characters, I only have one vulcan bridge officer for one of my characters. What appeals to me, and I think many players that use the D'kyr at the moment, is the ability to use ships and clothing that do not have direct ties to starfleet. Not everyone likes the Saucer & Nacelle ship design, or the white/grey/blue hull plating of starfleet ships - these vulcan ships give options to those players for something that can be imagined as anything from an actual vulcan vessel to a mercenary ship to an independent trade ship or freighter.
I want the one she wore in the first season (at least just started watching it al again ep 16 atm or so) That one really looked good.
Beside that I like the idea, not sure however it should be primary I much ratter see some more TNG focussed starfleet stuff.

Bumping threads is not allowed on this forum.
To the idea of a "Vulcan pack": I think it´s a nice idea, but your suggestion has too many ships in it. And if they include previously released items in a new bundle, they would have to sell new stuff as separate items. I guess thats why the TOS bundle doesn´t include the TOS Connie and the TOS uniforms, the interiors and the bridge are not sold separately.
Suggest items that haven't been released yet, like this uniform perhaps.
:cool:
