If it's scaled similarly to a Mogai, the wings (or based on the concept art, those cowlings where the wings meet the central hull) will likely be capable of having comparable hangar space to the Armitage.
You mean like:
Will there be 3 Separate PVP Ques or just one Random Moshpit?
Well, they haven't said these new Romulans are at war with anyone. Maybe they get NO PvP... :eek:

Hrmm... so...thinking about the carrier/pseudo carrier thing - given the pictures of drones - something along the lines of a Romulan Drone Carrier, eh?
Am I the only one who primarily thinks "new unbalanced traits", "more grind with new unbalanced rep stuff" and "new unbalanced ships" while reading this announcement? (And possibly "new unbalanced warp cores".)

The masses want more power!
Doesn't matter if the content doesn't require more power, the masses want more power!
They don't care about balance - they want to obliterate the NPCs so they can feel heroic!
They're willing to break out their credit cards for Cryptic!

I read OP faction... an entire new line of ships to purchase....
Crazy D costs on leveling ships.... as they aren't likely to have multiple Cstore options at every level.
Imagine if you will folks coming into STO as a completely 100% new player today and leveling a fed... could you do it without dropping a bunch of $... at least and not want to slit your wrists.
Now that you have that thought in your head... up the price tag 50-100%... and enjoy your new Romulan leveling experience.
At least at end game you will likely have the most annoying Overpowered toys... so it will work out.
are these few screeners and some texts on this site everything thats going to be revealed todey?
They say "click here for full details" but theres nothing *detailed* there.. am i just blind or is this all for now?
I was hoping for much more specific details more like patchnotes, some details on the ships, on the new traits asf
its nice to know that new trait ssystem is comming but i cant find any specifics on that..

Oh such a BIG +1 to all of this .
After all the teaser images , the count down clock , all we're left now is what we've had before . Random speculation ... with just a little more to speculate on .
One thing I'm wondering.. if that Concept Art is actually an "upgraded" Scimitar, will it have the Thalaron Burst attack that it's known for.. And if so, would it be a Console, or more like the Garumba and be apart of it.
I'm already suspecting it'll also have a hanger or two slots. (Looks like two on the wings, making it a Carrier)
You think that your beta test was bad?
Think about this: American Football has been in open beta for 144 years. ~Kotaku
Looks like in the video, The early birds fly a lot like the early Bops.
I think you are going to have plenty to QQ about when you see that DHC Battle Cloaking 15 Turn 5 tac console Battle Cruiser come Romulan end game.
I'm past QQ, fewer logins per week instantly solved all my worries, I no longer care and thus no longer spend money :P
But wait, all factions need their Galaxy. Romulan Warbird would be excellent choice for that.
"Cryptic Studio’s Jack Emmert (2010): Microtransactions are the biggest bunch of nonsense. I like paying one fee and not worrying about it – like my cellphone. The world’s biggest MMO isn’t item based, even though the black market item GDP is bigger than Russia … microtransactions make me want to die.”

It's much more reminiscent of a Mogai/Valdore type ship than a Scimitar to me. Though I completely agree about the wing cowlings, and the Mogais in-game are already a good deal larger than existing single-hangar ships.
So, in theory the Romulans need to start with 15 ships (5 ranks x 3.) I wonder if there are really 15 player ships ready? Or...maybe these Romulans get some KDF/Fed ships? (That would also solve the lockbox & veteran ship problem.)

Utilize upgrades instead of ships, they would only need those four ships. Well, plus the TOS Rom BoP starter ship.
To that though, it might be a case of adding a Flight-Deck Cruiser/Heavy Raptor Carrier, Carrier, Time Ship, Temporal Destroyer, Vet Ship, Scimitar 3pack (Bort/Ody comparitive)...?
They'll also need a shuttle.
So somewhere around 15 ships... with cosmetic changes for the ships as they advance/skins/bits/etc...cause you'd also be looking at 4+ Fleet Ships that would be needed at some point.
It's kind of twisted though, eh? Not counting small craft (nor lockbox/event), there's over 85 Fed Ships and over 60 KDF Ships.
Definitely going to be interesting to see how they handle that for the Roms. We've got two months of info coming our way though...will have to see.
Having to upgrade a handful of ships would be kind of chintzy. I'm curious as well - maybe they have been steadily adding Romulan ships in the background over the last year. Or maybe Romulans don't have sci ships, or all their ships have universal Boffs....

that would make for interesting gameplay...but if the green elves get that, the feds are going to start screaming louder than its ever screamed before...they still rage every so often because they have no uni boff ship like the KDF's BoPs
A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"

Passion and Serenity are one.
I gain power by understanding both.
In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
I am a shadow, darkness born from light.
The Force is united within me.

And yeah, we'll probably see plasma turrets. Not like the embassy ones, I hope. And Plasma Orbital Strike! Ooh the afterburn!
Fanfiction! ZOMG! Read it now!

Nice. That sounds like the klingons get new content and they add an entire faction. That seems too good to be true.
My stomach is clear and my mind is full of bacon!

Romulan Warbird would be more like the Sci Odyssey, but it's turn rate would be the same as the Odyssey with out it's "hat"
