    Gorn Set and Done, As In more KDF GORN Content.... Maybe That 2-Yr Old Gorn Episode Planned?

    But Even more So.... Pahkwa-thanh

    EVEN BETTER... PIGGY-BACKING ON VULCAN/CARDASSIAN FACTION.....

    GORN REBEL FACTION W/ REBELLIOUS ALIENS! lol.... Maybe Pahkwa-thanh can be there as well...

    Rebellious Aliens: Naussican/Orion

    Other Random Rebellious Aliens (By MIRROR Canon W/ Gorn) Dominoin, And Tholian!

    This Will Help Spread The Gorn and Orion Backround and Story... As Well Poss. Other Aliens.

    I.E. Gorn Honor: "Never kill without a just cause." So Therefore... think of being somewhat more... tranquil... but against KDF.... you think they deserve death for what they did. Continuing.... just a lot more Gorn stuff, like.... IDK... :D COSTUMES!!!!

    I.E. Orion people were forced in as well... why not let them rebel for freedom?

    I.E. New Ships For Each Alien

    I.E. Actual Racial Separation From Those "Peta'Q" Dictators Who Assimilate Our Culture

    I.E. Happy Fan Base To Kill Some KDF Scum...

    I.E. (My Luck, It Will Happen, And Will Probally Be Against FED Still... Or Both... THAT'S BETTER! AGAINST TWO FACTIONS! FED AND KDF!..... Then there is rom.... LOL.... You Figure it Out!)

    Xindi would be cool, along with most of the other suggestions so far. I'd really like to see a female nausicaan after all i have a female Pakled (+6%crit chance, she just gets confused on who to shoot :P) and several cool female Reman characters.
    I'm kinda suprised they haven't done this with some other content like a mini bundle of whatever toss it in the z-store for 2500 zen whalaa :D

    Last I heard was no captain playable Androids from CBS though not sure why mine always end up looking like cool alien cyborgs. :P

    That assumes that these particular races are sexually dimorphic.

    All ready have a plot device for that from the Breen/Deferi arc the Preservers seeded all life :D, thus we have female saurians and a scary visual Pakleds getting frisky. :P

    They already have them... Blue, Purple, Orange, etc.

    As long as it actually worked :P (See Gorn tailor options...)
    Gotta say, love the idea of a Xindi arc. It's awesome. Maybe uniting the races again as a FE series where you earn a choice of BOFF, an item set maybe (although "giving" us a ship is unlikely... it'll end up in the Xindi Lockbox "Available whilst the FE is running"). Give me my hairy arboreal already.

    They were always one of my favourite "bag guys". Not that they were really bad guys... Anything featuring them woud have my support :)
    I think we should have more equipment sets, regardless of the origins.
    That said, I want to play a DOSI.

    That would be nice - They have awesome shoulderpads.

    I'm not so much bothered about species we've already got; what I'd be interested in seeing is species that we've not yet come across (again) that do exist. I think it's a fair bet to say we'll be seeing the Voth within the next 12 months, and in a big way (I say this only cause of rumors, but from what I've read, the rumors stand to make sense).

    Other than that though, I would agree that the Suliban need some small story, and need to be options for the Republic (both as characters and Bridge Officers); when they're made to be characters, a couple of ships could come into play too (though they'd need to rethink the design; a bunch of cell ships stuck together wouldn't do them justice for 25th century style play). The Boslic (mentioned above) could be a welcome addition to the KDF, however they're very similar to the Orion Syndicate; they're both focused toward piracy and crime.

    What I definitely think is missing (from the FED & KDF) is Deltans and Talarians. Deltans have been a long standing member within the Federation, and the Talarians would be a welcome addition to the KDF. Throw some unique ships in there too.

    Then comes NPC; the two races that spring to mind (without the need for their own story arc) are the Sheliak and Son'a. The Sheliak are very territorial; similar to Tholians in that regard, and I loved the look of that Son'a Battleship in Insurrection. I don't think there are enough Son'a in the galaxy though to warrant a full blown threat, thus it would be nice to have a couple of episodes where you're fighting against them.

    That's all I've got for the moment.

    Edit: The Xindi; although as much as I've love it, they should remain NPC. There's no way I can practically see anyone playing as an Xindi Aquatic.

    I dunno about that. the Boslic are mercenaries often, but are usually not criminals. Usually....

    I agree with your other ideas though. :D

    Telsians! The Ferengi would have helped spread this easily manipulated Delta-quadrant species far and wide - as wide as the Ferengi, so even to Alpha and Beta. They would be far easier to manage than Yridians. They could make a natural addition to the mining doffs at the dilithium mine, or a critical success reward for mining assignments. They could introduce the 'gullible' doff trait, as well as having 'persuasion'. Perhaps Telsians could be expended doffs (adding to critical) in espionage missions... It would also be great to see their features added to the Alien costume editor.

    The only thing I can come up with are the Voth. As to the Sheliak, a war with the Tholians might make sense for them. A nice mission around the Triskelion Gamesters or a revisit to Sigma Iotia would be cool too.

    How about some actual Saurian history and backstory?

    Every other playable race in STO has had quite a bit more screen time then them, even if it was 1 episode featuring that race or a member of it.

    I would love anything with Suliban.
    As for their ships, I always liked the idea of a swarm. They could have a nice high defence bonus, and some awesome animations. When you take damage, some blow up, when you repair, more warp in and when there' more than one in the same game, everybodies graphics cards melt!

    (imo) The Boslic look much nicer than the Orions, so they have that going for them. That said, the only one I remember seeing much is Rionoj, and she was more nefarious trader than pirate. Although I can imagine her swashbuckling...

    I'd also like to see Deltans in there. Talarians, I'm less fond of. But I'm all for More content, regardless.

    Son'a ships, I love! I've spent quite some time discussing the possible inclusion of their ships. (sadly, they have the perfect set-up for lockboxes)

    I can picture it quite vividly. After doing some mission, you fly over to DS9, you beam in and hear a strange noise. You look over your shoulder and what do you see? An aquatic flopping about on the floor...
    That could be a problem.

    Did you just imply that vulcans are non-humanoid?

    No, other ideas of mine. Not that It's entirely relevant, (Since it's my thread, I'm not too concerned about going off topic :P) but I'd like to see more vanity ships. For example, that funky Bajoran Sail ship for travelling around sector space in. It might be hard to explain why it's doing warp 22, but it'd be worth it! :)

    Also, lots of you are listing races but not saying what you want them to be doing! Do you want to play them? Fight them? Eat them? Train them as pets? Fire them out of your torpedo tubes? As much as I would like to see a cheron splatter across a borg hull, I don't think my resolution is good enough to distinguish between the subspecies ;)

    Lawful neutral is an overused alignment - I was always more Neutral Evil myself ;)
    Personally, I'd want boslics to be a cross-faction Boff/captain race. Although that's never gonna happen.
