Just wish they answer about the Starbase Project. If it's the same as last year or is it a new one?
Just read the blog...
This year, we?re also adding another Winter Featured Starbase Project that will allow Fleets who complete it to display a special NEW Breen Ship ornament in their Starbase interior. This decoration can be toggled on and off once active, and the featured project will cost only Holiday Commodities ? no other inputs will be required.
Question ... We were able to turn the Romulan bunnies (winter versions) in for marks last year ... are the Gingerbread pets this year's version of that?
Will we be able to turn them in for marks? ... or are the epohhs back ?
Will the event tab know if we have last years breen ship. Will it let us slot it?
Also does this years breen ship have a console that can have a 2 piece set bonus with the console from last years ship?
It does .... scroll back through the thread ... someone posted a link to an image of screenshot of the updated console stats of last years which now apparently has the new console listed as part of the set plus the set bonuses.

'Fast and Flurrious' race with Epohh tags as rewards was mentioned in Monday's blog. And after two updates to the blog, Bran confirmed Epohhs can be turned in for a choice of marks (not yet finalised what particular types of marks).
On another note: Update for raiders YAY! I wonder if the A(fail)quarius will be part of the update or not and I hope the T'Varo isn't (it's a damn amazing little ship already).
TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class. Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider. Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.
Systems Designer Jeff "AdjudicatorHawk" Hamilton reveals details about the rewards you can earn at Q's Winter Wonderland this year in this entry of the Season 8 News Dev Blog series.
I find your lack of edible ginger-based snacks disturbing :P Nah, always a good blog. No images of the new Winter Coats yet?
However;
I'll say this much, it's a Raider, minus a cloaking device, plus a substantial playstyle upgrade that will be coming to the Raider class as a whole at a future date.
Not before Science gets some work done, I hope.
You're just a machine. And machines can be broken.
Looking forward to the new Raider mechanic so much. My Gorn tac might finally have a reason to upgrade from the Mirror Qin to the Fleet Ho'sus. Thanks!
And the free Breen Raider looks pretty rad too. And it's free.
1) is the green jacket a bold green, a drab green or a lurid kawasaki green
2) will males get the cropped jacket option this time round?
3) are the prices similar to last year?
4) would it be possible to activate the scarves for all editable boffs on a character? e.g. letting Diplo/Marauding excange boffs use the captains faction scarves, and letting romulans and their allies use each others scarves

The Aquarius should be considered a raider ... flat out *and* be given a similar upgrade.
Just to clarify ... we can get BOTH Breen ships (the new raider AND the destroyer) or is each toon limited to only one?
I'd imagine Cryptic wants people playing as much as possible so they won't object to each player/toon grinding to get both Breen ships ... I just want to make sure before I get too excited.
In the immortal words of Captain Sisko: "It may not be what you believe, but that doesn't make it wrong."
Don't believe the lies in this forum. I am NOT an ARC user. I play STO on Steam or not at all.
question for the devs: will the Plesh Brek heavy raider be able to use the Breen Energy Dissipator from the Chel Grett?
Yes it will. The Energy Dissapator is becoming part of a 2 piece set for the Breen ships. The Universal modules are usable on either Breen ship. The Raider is getting a Sensor Disruption Module. The 2 piece set is passive ability of +35 Starship Flow Capacitors and +35 Starship Countermeasure Systems.
With the Dyson Rep weapons and consoles, my Breen Bomber is coming out of retirement.
And yeah, my other chars also get their raiders fixed (ignoring the boffs, the Risian Corvette is based around the same principle as raiders: speed over hull).

hopefully, it will be another useless ship that i don't really wont, and bypass the grinding on all alts, leaving more time to actually have fun and enjoy everything else in the event

SO true...I'ld actually rather have more dinosaur pets...combat raptor hatchlings FTW!!!....
Don't know if this was asked already but... for the Fleet Special Project are we going to be able to do both last years'
(2012 - Chel Grett Warship)
and this years
(2013 - Plesh Brek Heavy Raider)
Multiple times. Like at the top of this page. They are adding another project slot for this, and if you did not get the Chel last year, you can slot it, the Plesh, or both - but you will not be able to get enough free portraits to get both in one year. You would need to have some left over from last year, or get extras through the Lobi store.
I am wondering though why some think the Devs are suddenly going to add a Raider class to the feds line of vessels? Its not as if raiding other species for their loot is in the UFPs mandate.

I was referring to the FLEET's Special Project.... not the actual ship... I already have the Chel Grett....

And if we get them can we please have the option to not use them.
It would be appreciated

I'm not upset even in the slightest about this new ship. I'm glad it's coming.
I'm more thrilled that it looks like the BoP revisit and fixes are forthcoming.

At this rate, the Event rep will have four, five project slots by the end of the 2014 Winter Wonderland event... :P
It should be the new ship with the year, similar to last year's.

Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

Awesome blog.

Yes, you could get technically get both. See my post here for more info: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?p=13800551#post13800551
They are green this year -- they've been a different color each year.

And raptors.
And "support vessels".
And corvettes.
