Q: (captainrevo1) 1) Who is Benedict Cumberbatch playing in Star Trek into Darkness? and more seriously; 2) Any hints or clues as to the theme and arrival date of the next lock box.
Dstahl: 1) John Harrison, and 2) The Dominion; around the time of our 3 Year Anniversary.
Was mentioned on this months ask Cryptic...I don't know about anyone else but me personally I'm hoping for a Jem'Hadar Dreadnought as the grand prize. IMO she is the most beautiful ship the Jem'Hadar employ.

Damn you JJ.
now onto the ship. they dont really do the huge ships as player ones, so i cant imagine it will be a dreadnought.
the bug ship has been done, and the heavy escort is in the holo-emitter latinum store. so to me that leaves the battleship. which is also a very nice looking ship.
...which I would appreciate having.
It's more likely that the Dominion Heavy Escort will go to the Lobi Store, and the Battleship/Warship will be a lock box reward.
Never stopped them before.
This is what I thought too. As soon as I saw it was a dominion lockbox I knew that the main prize would be a Breen ship, as the Breen joined the dominion.
Kirk's Protege.
I've had my super special shiny bug ship for a year now. It collects dust most of the time while I tool around in my D'kora. I wouldn't feel robbed at all. It's a nice ship, but it's just a ship.
Ketracel white
that stupid polearm
Jem hadar doffs
Vorta Doffs
probably a vorta boff in the lobi store
We get some of those through the 2800 FE, though. I know I got a bunch of Vorta and Jem'hadar Doffs, and both Ketracel White items (for your Jem'hadar Boff), and Ketracel White commodities.
Lock boxes always contain rubbish

Three years and still no Captain Klaa hair...
God, lvl 60 CW. 17k.
Weirder things have happened, a bet you a month ago there wouldn't have been many who would of thought they would give us a ship Chel Grett...mush less give it to us for free but it happened.
If anything I suppose I like the escort better than the battleship...I just was never a huge fan of the battleship.
Its more hope than anything else, people thought never in a million years the Vesta would have a flight deck when I posted my ideas and wished for it...its not a flight deck cruiser like I suggested but it still does have a single hanger.
It'd be far cheaper to gather EC and good doffs/gear to sell for EC then buy the darn thing outright.
I did that earlier this year, then sold it a few months ago then bought two plus other ships with that money when it's price crashed...
It'll be at least another breen ship since they already said the BCG console works on "any Breen ship".
They may also include a Kheldon Class Cardassian ship or a JH Heavy Escort...though they've mentioned wishing they'd not put a Galor in a lockbox so who knows.
Do we really need the escort though since the bug is a escort...I mean if they throw a fourth rear weapon slot on it I can't see it being much different than the Chel Grett.
I think it would suck if they put the Bug in the box...not because I would be upset, I don't own one. because it would be just simply kinda lame.

DO IT!
It would be a bit lame from a new content perspective... but for the future it would make a bit more sense than including the bugship in random giveaways, like it was at the tail end of the reinforcement packs...
I suppose, the Heavy Escort wouldnt make much sense as the lobi ship if the bugship is in the box, the battleship would make a bit more sense in the aspect.
Theyve only offered the bugship 3 times. and two of them were through Doff packs... which made no real sense...
I'm glad its so easy for you to get ECs... its pretty hard for me... I'd love to be able to get 230,000,000ECs for a bugship... please feel free to PM me with awesome ways to generate that much EC quickly... because I want a bugship...
They said the Breen console works on other ships to leave the option for another breen ship... but also said they had no plans for another yet.
I'd like to see a Keldon... but the representation of the Keldon in this game is so off its not funny... it should be no longer or wider than the Galor and only have the extra hump... Id much rather have a console for the Galor that adds the hump and in creases the hull and power levels a bit.
First time I heard of this, did they give a reasoning for that statement? What was it about the Galor that made them regret offering it? Because it makes it harder to make Cardis a playable species later on?
I think they're just paving the way for a Dominion reputation to be added. Kinda like how Romulan rep weapons are prefixed with Romulan.
I'm actually expecting a Dominion ship. Though, this does leave the question: It was stated in another Ask Cryptic '12 question that they're saving hairstyles or something for potential Romulan and Cardassian playable species (whether that's a full faction or not remains to be seen).
They've already given out the Galor, and now they're giving out potential Jem Hadar ships in their lock boxes? At this rate, if we get a Cardassian faction, all of their ships will already be playable. :P
Well on the 2800 part...those ships were reinforcements from the Gamma Quadrant. The Breen are based in the Alpha Quadrant obviously so they wouldn't be receiving reinforcements from the Gamma Quadrant.
