    cool stuff.

    although, i think you guys could've had more creative vision when designing the plesh brek rather than taking the skeleton for the tholian recluse, flipping it over, and slapping breen parts on it.

    but yay, free t5 ship.

    Arrgh - no MK12 Breen space set?? I am still holding out hope. It does not have to be a gift, lobi store is fine.

    The Plesh Brek was here long before the Recluse. It's the Standard Breen NPC Frigate.

    No Sciece Vessel.

    Guess we Sci Captains will have to hold out hope that they will stick to their promise of giving us a Ship Choice for the Anniversary.

    I would have further comments, but I don't need a forums ban.

    Charging for different colors of the same outfit seems kind of messed up. . .

    "Snowblower" sounds like a minigun

    "The Big One", Gumdrop shotgun is of course a pulsewave

    and "Hail" is stated as being twin pistols

    these will make fine additions to my arsenal alongside my "Flurry" and "Avalanche"

    looks like i got my work cut out for me in getting these weapons, costumes and more for all of my alts ^^

    question for the devs: will the Plesh Brek heavy raider be able to use the Breen Energy Dissipator from the Chel Grett?

    Doing the math here.

    40 autographs x 42 days = 1680

    Divide by 2 = 840 for each, meaning you need 160 each to get both.

    160 / 2 autographs minimum for each package = 80 packages

    80 packages x 5 lobi = 400 Lobi

    ...is it worth it to get both?

    NO, do the skating...

    Two new colors of Winter Jacket have been added this year - Green and Red!

    Interesting.....

    I stopped when it said, "Raider minus the cloacking device"
    Basically another useless escort with nothing special about it. Might as well get the Chel Grett for my alt instead :(

    BAH ... Its a BoP minus cloak (likely more hull) with an upgrade for the raider class (forthcoming to all) which means it will be an evil ship.

    It will have "flanking" meaning it's an even bigger glass cannon than it was before... >.>

    No leaving the zone up like risa will destroy what the zone is about, last year we asked if andoria could be retrofitted, so we can ice skate and use our snowball weapons.

    No ... Because FEDs will not sit quietly for that AND they tend to get what they want so ... They will see to it that our KDF raiders are fixed properly as they want this new ship to be worth something. :)

    And leave it to the KDF playerbase to gripe about the Fed getting access to it, too, instead of looking forward to their BoPs getting a boost.

    Yes, this would be awesome... Andoria needs a purpose, and being able to use the Winter Weapons and Skates year round would be excellent.

    Andoria always had the potential to be a unique open PvP ground zone, this could be a great way to go.

    As to the first bit, agreed; I like looking forward to the Winter Wonderland as an Event. Now, if we could just get the Devs to hook up the Jet Packs in Wonderland, and the Winter Arsenal on Risa...*Chuckle*...

    Question regarding the holiday food recipes:

    How exactly are these acquired from Winter Invasion? I mean, are they awarded to the whole team when found; awarded to each player who finds them individually; or will it become some sort of "first come, first served" race to get it first, much like Battlezone Command Credits...?

    There's a glowing object hidden in the map. Each player can interact with it once per run of the queued event. Interacting with the object grants the player the recipe. There is no competition with your teammates for the resources you want to pick up.

    Dude, I just want another Event reputation project slot. Because I don't want to lose the 12 crystal shards that i've got slotted into that Entity project on my romulan, or the Risian pearls that are slotted into the corvette project on the same character.

    I know, it sounds pathetic. But one more event project slot would make my life a LOT easier--and other ftp players' lives a lot easier.

    Also, raider revamp is welcome news. BOPs have been weaksauce for far too long. I can't wait to see what the fix is!

    My 2 cents.

    We're adding another Event Rep project slot for this event. You won't have to cancel anything to make room for running the Winter event.

    Awesome, a new Breen ship. Can we please get a custom bridge for the Breen ships now? If no okay but a yes would be the best.
