If I remember correct you guys just recently got a frikkin mini death star with thrusters.
Great...
...now I've got the image of a tennis ball with one of these on the side of it, shootin' lazer beams all over the place...

Hrmmm... the last KDF C-Store ship was the... was the... around the same time as the space whale... what was it again? Trying to remember correctly and all that... it was around a year ago or so...
Wasn't the Atrox.
Wasn't the Armitage.
Wasn't the Regent.
Wasn't the Steamrunner, though that wasn't actually a C-Store ship.
Wasn't the Vesta 3pack.
All of those are Fed ships since then...hrmmm.
It was back, last year, when they did the Ody...
...oh yeah, the Bortasqu' was the ship.
Will The KDF be getting their own 3-Pack escort (which I assume will be +1/Fleet ships)? Or will they miss out again like with the Vesta?
Back when they were talking about the Kumari, I figured we'd be getting the K'Vort. With the talk of the Ambassador as the anniversary ship - I figured we'd be getting the K'Vort. Here we are with a Friday screenshot of a Kumari with details coming next week... I'm no longer figuring we're getting the K'Vort.

At this point...
I'd just assume the worst.
Less disappointing that way.

Couldn't you have at least kept the look of the Enterprise one? Was it really that hard to leave it well enough alone? I mean, you did that for the vulcan ship for the most part. I've waited since I signed up for this ship it seems like. Looks like it got dipped in plastic and held over a flame...

I woulda thought it would have been an 'alien but part of the faction' ship
I.e. andorian is a founder of the federation
leathean/feresean is a member of the KDF
HINT HINT
I would love to see leathean/feresan ships ingame
SOMETHING to flesh out/give more options for the kdf.. our shipyards are surprisingly lazy over the course of this game *caresses disruptor*

Thank god If they did make a KDF ship, I rather have a new design than a overgrown BOP.

I am hoping this is a different skin option or something, and we will have the option to get a proper canon skin as well. Since we aren't going to know the details until next week, I am not getting my pitchfork and torches out until I know it will not be so.
Same for the Unique bridge, since I am pretty sure we saw the Andorian bridge in Enterprise. Then again, I remember so little about that series, I could be wrong. Again, holding off on the pitch forks and torches till next week.
If only I weren't such a stickler for Starfleet officers flying Starfleet ships...
I wouldn't have to roll a new Andorian to fly this ship. Cause it needs to be flown!
Anyway, I seem to recall them having already created the model for the original Kumari at a point quite a long time ago in the past, so I wouldn't be surprised to see the original look included in the package. It's a pretty sweet ship either way, but I prefer the new hotness to old and busted. At least it shows the Andorians are still serious on defense. Unlike some people I could name. I won't point ears.

I've actually been re-watching ST: ENT over the last several weeks (great special effects, so-so writing) and yeah there was a custom Kumari bridge. It had the standard "captain's chair, with two dudes sitting in front of a viewscreen in front of him" Star Trek setup, but it also had four other stations pretty close around the captain's chair where an officer would stand instead of sit.

gah... and I *just* spent all my Zen on the Vesta 3-pack on Monday...
Same here, but I don't regret it. I need the vesta for zoom zoom around the galaxy and especially to make people jelly as I fly past them during tour the universe :P
Edit: Lol, I feel like like Dan and Brandon hit the emergency button yesterday (shortly after the fleet marks mob grew in size) that triggered a hole underneath their office chairs to open up which then shoots them down a tube into an emergency command center hooked up to computers ready to release sweet pics of new ships like the kumari.
Given what Dan said a few Ask Cryptics ago, that Cryptic lost money on some of the KDF C-Store content they released because not enough people bought it, I don't think you're gonna see new KDF stuff in the c-store anytime soon.
KDF items will be relegated to the Kickstarter store. That way they can guage interest and do the costing math before going too far into production.
On the subject of the Andorian ship, she looks nice, would have bee better without the 'wings' though.

Shut Up And Take My 5000 Zen!
If I remember correct you guys just recently got a frikkin mini death star with thrusters.
2500 Zen individually, 5000 Zen for the bundle?
Go on, you know you want to tell us :P
Should we consider the Kumari-class as the Tactical equivalent of the Odyssey and Vesta?
Great...

But yeah, nifty - another Fed 3pack.

And what ship would that be?
Also I'm dont really care about the andorian ship. Feds can fly around in a shiny TRIBBLE with nacelles if they want to.

Don't bet on it. Recycling Starfleet bridges yet again.

So uh... you still say that after their new design with the Kamarag?

Yep the Kamarag especially the fleet version is nice but that's my opinion and you're entiled to yours.

Probably. They did say it would have side-facing guns.
