    :O................................!

    Edit: lol google translate dosen't work on third party sites and says it may be a third party (probably a security measure of PWEs) but I have determined the page is legit

    Edit 2: wait does that say that both klingons and romulans are 1-50 now! that is awesome!

    Edit 3: HUD Colour change, am I dreaming? and that traits thing is either retrait, respecies or new traits that you can unlock hmm, oh and the ships look so epic, the art team did a great job :)

    edit 5: lol the pictures annotations are still in english and that UI picture suggests a severly redesigned UI, BranFlakes was not kidding when he said this update will amaze!!!!!!

    edit 6: on closer inspection of that new UI the traits menu is now part of the character interface (where you change items, that does suggest something really big with traits)

    in short:

    play as Romulan or Reman

    Warbirds ("unleash their singularity-cores")

    play from 1 to 50 with every faction

    Sela back

    new Tholian rep

    new enemy

    new abilities and skills for captain and crew

    better ui

    Edith: How do they plan to implement the Romulans to pvp? Or is it a pve only faction at launch?

    They've already thrown in a redirect...kind of funny. Happened as I was going back and forth.

    edit:

    Just go to Google. Search for: http://sto.de.perfectworld.eu/legacyofromulus

    Should be the first result. Click on Cached.

    "Romulus and Remus are past. You're one of the survivors and struggling with the aftermath of the destruction.

    These are dark and dangerous times for your people, the Tal Shiar tolerates no opponents and a mysterious creature spreads terror among the scattered colony worlds.

    You must build the Empire again. Gather allies goes into the ground and mobilize your people.

    Together you will lift you and ask for your freedom. You will fight for your people.

    You are the heir of Romulus."

    *Pulls himself together again*

    I must admit, I'm very, very surprised. Not to mention the other stuff coming in too. Based on translations I read, you'll be able to start KDF from level 1 too.

    Tholian rep is coming too, so might want to go and pick up your cryo-pulsewave and other Tholian kit before they start charging dil. Plus, looks like we'll finally get those elite Widow fighters then.

    Love your signature :)

    Have to wonder if the price of Bugs is going to skyrocket, eh? Folks wanting the ship(s) available for their Romulan toons.

    Cause face it, while leveling 1-50 may take no time - grinding out the Rep, grinding out a Starbase for Fleet ships 'n gear, etc, etc, etc - so they'd want something in their pocket not to be fodder until all that's done.

    Hrmmm...

    I m too happy to even think about all the accx3 ultra rare doffs, starbase and rep, lobi, and lockboxes.....

    Have to wonder what the cost will be - how much of it will be available to everybody - how much will only be available to those that pay for it...or even if it's going to work like that - or - rather they'll look to recoup/make money off of everything else, etc, etc, etc.

    Off topic:
    Love your signature :)

    Thanks! Had it for a while. Very representative of what most pugs (myself included - sometimes :)) seem to do when facing down a well-organised group.

    On topic:

    The singularity cores remark has me wondering a little. Seems they might introduce that warp core idea that was being batted around earlier.

    I'm both loving and hating the idea of grinding romulans. At the least it seems like the UI is getting quite the cosmetic one over! Maybe the queues will get reworked to? FvF, FvK, KvK, FvR, KvR, RvR doesn't seem like it would work all that well.

    To save us all some grinding, can we please build ONE big Romulan Fleet for the PvP Forum? :)

    I would quite enjoy this. Ground and space in the same fleet. Might even get some space guys into ground and some ground guys into space with all of the cross chatter.

    I like this idea. Really we should all cross-pollinate into both types and not be so cut off like we are right now.

    I would love a non faction specific que: your team would be filled with feds, roms, and/or kdf,in addition to our faction specific ques.

    Just got an email welcoming me to the romulans....


    -sad inquisitor- I hope to god they start at least considering the ramifications new things do to pvp but I seriously doubt it.



    -looks forward to his first themed event involving romulans-

    Awww, c'mon, man. You know it's going to happen. We're gonna see more stuff to get annoyed by. It's just not worth worrying about it until the stuff is out. ;)

    Enjoy the fact that we get more goodies, then we can play PvP analysts when we see how bad the stuff is. :)

    Raider (BoP)
    Raptor (Mogai)
    Battle Cruiser (D'Deridex)
    Science/Support?
    Carrier?

    Hrmm, Temporal Destroyer and Time Ship?
    Vet Ship?

    Ody/Bort comparable 3pack?

    Ambassador/Kamarag Rom ship?

    Will the Chel Grett be available again during the Summer Event or might it make an appearance in some future DOFF pack like the Bug does? Maybe even a Breen Lockbox down the road, eh?

    What will the Romulan Elite Fleet Weapons be? Will they be Plasma - how will they compare to the New Rom Rep Rom Plasma Weapons?

    Will there be a MACO/KHG equivalent STF gear set? Will there be new AMACO/AKHG of that Rom set? Will there be Rom versions of the MACO/KHG?

    What "consoles" are going to be Romulan - how will those play out in regard to the crossfaction consoles? What consoles will be available to the Romulans from the Feds/KDF?

    Will Romulans have access to Romulan Rep and Romulan Embassies? Why would they? Will there KDF and Fed Embassies added? So Feds can have Rom/KDF, KDF Rom/Fed, and Rom KDF/Fed?

    Will there be Fed/KDF BOFFs for Roms like there are Rom BOFFs for Feds/KDF?

    Will all of the DOFFs be populated? Dear God, will something be done about the Exchange to find DOFFs/BOFFs?

    Will there be a DOFF mission for the Hargh'peng?

    DI/RP/and...?

    The list goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on...
