Romulan Lifetime Ship

Is there anyone out there that could shed some light on this? If not what it will be, an approximate ETA, or even if this has been decided yet.

    It's coming soon.

    That's all that's been said. It'll probably be a carbon copy of the current ones.

    Same goes for Romulan Timeships.

    i'm sure it will be, minus the change to it's lotus beam anyway. KDF is disruptor, Fed is Phaser, I expect Rom will be Plasma. When would still be nice, might make my decision on buying the lifetime easier (especially considering the recent everyday downtime)

    Still wondering how they plan to do that. Normal plasma colour or Romulan plasma colour.

    you may want to reconsider with the time left on lts sale atm.

    considering the kdf raptor looks alright and the fed cruiser/escort looks really ugly, i hope the romulan 1k reward is something that looks aesthetically pleasing for once.

    Reminds me of one of the funniest adverts I saw at a cinema:

    "Coming soon.......but not too soon" - Durex

    Should be the same layout as others have said and it is a beast of a ship. My only hope is they take a balance pass at it while doing so and buff it up to fleet level with 10 console slots (most likely a 3rd science) and 10% more hull and shields.

    It is through repetition that we learn our weakness.

    Has damage got out of control?
    This is the last thing I will post.

    I imagine it would be normal plasma color, since Romulan plasma weapons are special and we all start out with standard plasma weapons.

    I imagine the RR timeship and 1K ship will have Romulan Battlecloak and a full suite of singularity powers. :D

    Why would anyone look forward to the Romulan Vet ship? The fed and KDF ones are not fleet level and have HORRIBLE design. Are we expecting the Romulan one to be any different?

    they might not be fleet level (missing what... 10% hull, a console slot, and minor stat changes?), but they are still as good as any of the other T5 ships. and are cruiser/escort hybrids, even if they are ugly looking in the right hands these things can be awesome. it's not like fleet ships are vastly superior to non-fleet ships.

    Probably, and that would be a pretty crappy solution. At least for people who apply themselves enough to a character to grind reputation and get the Romulan space set and plasma weapons and for those who want to go canon and use disruptors....
