So about those FE reward boffs...

I was thinking last night, have any FE reward boffs ever been engineering based?

We've got the Jem and Breen tac, the Reman sci. The borg accolade boff is a science boff.

I know there's more, but that's all I can think of.

I was just thinking, with all the talk for Cardassians in game lately, and the comment from last week about no planned faction additions in the near future...

Maybe we could get an FE with a Cardassian Engineering boff soon? The alien generator can't get the neck right, and we don't have access to the uniforms, so it'd be cool, a nice little stopgap for now.

Support? Naysay?

    There are android and c-store borg engineering boffs...but ya...no FE engineering ones
    Chive on and prosper, eh?

    I think it would be interesting to have ENG cardassian boffs. As long as they ADD the neck ridges (front and side) because what we have now is NOT Cardassian.

    They were engineers. Warriors, but engineers. They built Terok Nor and other impressive stations. Even the Galor cruiser is ENG-heavy.

    And since they are warrior engineers, perhaps whatever hypothetical Cardy ENG boff we get might have a unique version of a boff skill that helps combat damage. Maybe he has +2% crith bonus like superior operative or like pirate for nausicaans, but also a Quantum Mortar III for ground and for space maybe DEM 4 or ET4 or even A2Bat3.

    I think that to date the Cardassian content of The Second Wave (including all lockbox content) was some of the best there was. It was well rounded, well thought out, and for the most part well implemented. While I'm not so sure about adding an entire Cardassian race/faction or anything like that, I think we could add a couple more ships and some boffs and make some unique doffs like we have with other recent seasons.... I think we can really enhance the content and make it more fun.

    I think, however, that the Cardy body shape needs revamping, from scratch, to match what Cardassian really is. You'd need Cardassian-specific clothes because of their physiology. No shirts/jackets would fit. Pants and the lower half would, but not the top.

    And even worse, the number of FE boffs with space traits? 0. Please fix. I don't even like Cardassians, but I'd take somebody, anybody, with a space trait.

    Yeah, in terms of reward boffs, the only Engineers are the Android (can actually be any profession now, not just Engineer), the C-Store Borg, and the Diplomacy boff (can be any profession).
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    So it's agreed then, a FE engineering cardassian boff reward, with accurate neck and uniform.

    Maybe stick a veteran trait on there like Dvex?

    What does the veteran trait do?

    I'd like to see something like pirate (KDF) or operative (ROM) because feds don't have any major damage adding space trait for their boff crews.

    How about a new unique trait, like "+3% damage when actively stationed on Cardassian or Jem'Hadar ship"? Like a boff roster full of cardassians on a Galor? Or on a JHAS?

    Perhaps we could have a female FE Cardasian BOFF...

    +1, I would like that

    I had a similar thought, but I would prefer a male boff personally. Maybe if we had a choice?
