    Could a Dev or Branflakes please confirm the prices?

    Those things are normally included in devblogs, and it'd be nice to know how much to purchase beforehand :P
    I agree.

    Once someone releases the ship's price, I can buy the appropriate amount of zen.

    Wait... 5/3 weapon slots? With the potential of decloaking alpha strikes and better weapon/DHC power sustainability though the com array?

    I'm.. at a bit of a loss for words.. (The "Pay2Win" topic is rattling around my skull though.)

    Once I have the price confirmed, I will post it :) That's why I have not replied yet.

    I do not think Craptic know what a battle ship looks like!

    That is what a battle ship looks like, its slow moving, however can take many targets out in the same area. Honestly, oh and the hull is made from some really strong stuff!

    apparently wiki and ur link don't know what a real battleship is either cause theres nothing there =P and this is STO not star blazers lol

    5 forward facing weapons and a cloak to get you in close? It is going to suck whenever you get surprised by this thing.

    What is Console Synergy other then just being able to put it on the ship? Is there a 2-piece set bonus?

    Not to rain on your parade, but it is a Battle Cruiser. Not a Battle Ship

    As a little history lesson for you, a Battlecruiser is defined as a vessel that has armament comparable to that of a Battleship, but sacrifices armour for speed. It was a nice idea, but in practice, didn't work out so well for its real-world counterparts (See: Battle of Jutland, and the Battle of Denmark Strait)

    Avenger, oddly enough, fits the description perfectly.

    1.21 was ridiculous ... no KDF battlecruiser goes that high, its in line with KDF battlecruiser modifiers

    The current shield mods of fed AND KDF cruisers are rather rubbish, having been left behind by the power creep of other ships over the last year. D'deridex has a shield mod of 1.2 along with it's battlecloak, a Mogai has a shield mod of 1.1, the Elachi battlecruiser 1.2, the Galor 1.3 and the Elachi escort(!) has a shield mod of 1.3. Combined with the max number of field gens these ships can equip, most go over a cruisers shields.

    1.1 just isn't enough anymore, we have escorts with more shields than the main two factions cruisers.

    Looks good. I've got Zen and a fleet ship module ready to go. Looks like the fleet version brings with it alternate pylons- what about other customization options?

    :eek: that cant be right! at least in the ui, we see inertia valuses of 25, 60, 40, stuff like that. oh, unless that means 50. thats an interesting value, quite high actually. this will slide around quite a bit less then a kdf cruiser, the vorcha for example has only 30 inertia

    The odds are tomorrow, after the normal Thursday patch.
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    This is a Battlecruiser which is different from a Battleship. Battlecruisers have light armor (cruiser level armor) but heavy guns (Battleship caliber guns).
    That is what a battle ship looks like, its slow moving, however can take many targets out in the same area. Honestly, oh and the hull is made from some really strong stuff!
    Battleships actually can be quite fast. The larger a ship is the more space for propulsion systems meaning more speed. The reason smaller ships like Destroyers are faster is that they devote even more space for propulsion and forgo any armor what so ever.
    My Romulan Liberated Borg character made it to Level 30 and beat the (old) Defense of New Romulus with the skill point bug. :D

    Since when is non-canon stuff supposed to be considered representative of anything? :)

    Cool, now tell us when these fancy cruiser commands are going to show up for those of us that are happy with our current cruiser.

    I assume they're going to give the Avengers' buyers a week to putz around with the new, paid-for, ability and that the game-wide version will be in next week's patch.

    That's horrible....It's just a Connie with a plus one of everything.....not even a original design.

    Also that thing looks like it not structurally strong, everything is on a pylons, take on pylonm out the rest will fall apart.


    At least Cryptic's ship is beefed up and armored, and not look like paper.

    thats my guess too, however, one should never assume, much better to get the information straight from the PTBs.

    Console Synergy means it can equip a console that was previously specific to another ship. There is no 2-piece set bonus.
