    That's excellent. thank you! Now to put together a torpedo build for that carrier, probably quantums and a single phaser beam...and then turn it into a Runabout/Delta Flyer support machine :3

    I'd love to join in on this though I have some questions. I've got a Fed character I'm aiming to set up with a Narcine carrier or else a Fleet Caitian carrier. Are either of these acceptable? I'd also like to know if Tricobalt Devices are acceptable as well; Voyager does use them but I'd like something with a bit more kick than Photon or Quantum torpedoes. And lastly, what kind of fighters are allowed? There's 75 pages of thread; I didn't want to have to sift through all of it.

    Yes, I am horribly lazy.

    But please, do add me to the list, and once I get Narine to 50 I'll be happy to join in. Thank you!

    Greetings Captain,

    One of the admins have answered your questions I believe.

    My thoughts are as follows....

    If you saw it on the show... go for it, as well using STO as a guide works as well.

    Please leave your @handle and I or any other of the admins wil throw you the invite.

    Look forward to meeting you Captain.

    Sounds like fun.. even with Fleet gear, I find my DPS to be really low, so no changes really required if you relax the 'canon weapons' rule a bit. I'm up to 8 characters now, with the newest being a Caitian Engineer (lvl 17 when I logged out). My Fed Sci Vulcan runs the Fleet Nova, and my Caitian is in a Rhode Island. I also have a human Tac in a Fleet Advanced Escort (Prometheus) running Fleet Tetryon, Ferengi Engineer in Mirror Heavy Cruiser running Protonic Polaron beams, KDF Alien Sci in Dyson Sci Destroyer, not sure weaponry at the moment.. KDF and Fed Roms in Dyson Sci Destroyers running AP on Fed and Disruptors on KDF. (think that's all of them..)

    Anyway, shoot us an invite. @summerwolfe and @candice8, my girlfriend is almost always on when I am and we run things together as much as possible.. including STB if we're welcome.

    Thank you for you and your GF's interest in STB.

    In regards to your mention of laxing the canon loadouts, one of the charm's of STB is having the ships fire their race specific weapons. Purely for looks but that's what STB was created for was to try and emulate the look and feel of ST.

    If you or your GF require weapons we have STB fleet bank that has weapons that we can provide until you get your loadout for STB where you want it. I personally use fleet weaponary but put power into shileds and engines and still manage to pull around 5kish.

    On the Sci destroyer, I think you have a lil wiggle room there as it's NOT a ST canon ship.

    I hope I answered your question on the weapon portion.

    If there are anymore questions please let me know here or in game @trizeo1.

    I will send the invites or possibly one of the Admins will when we next get into game.

    Thanks and I look forward to flying with both of you :)7

    I am VERY interested in this. It seems like the PERFWCT place to get to play with two of my absolute favorite trek ships that simply can't keep up in the DPS fest that STO has become: the Mirror Heavy Cruiser and the Gal X.

    Would these ships be allowed as neither is strictly 'real' in the canon sense?

    If I was allowed to use the X, what would the loadout limitation be?

    I am thinking a load as such:

    Fore-
    Phaser beam array
    Phaser DC/DBB
    Quantum launcher
    Photon launcher

    Aft-
    Phaser beam array x2
    Quantum launcher
    Photon launcher

    Would this break your intentions for this channel or would it be OK? My goal would be to Nerf my weapons and torps to about 4-5k while mmaxing the lance.

    Edit- if this is all good, send me an invite @robthefourth

    That build will be fine. I'll send you an invite when I get back in game in a little bit, if no one else does first.

    Also let me reiterate that you can fly any ship in normal STB runs. It doesn't have to be a canon ship -- a lot of us fly those because they're our favorites, but plenty use Cryptic's designs too. As long as you're using the correct gear for that ship, it's fine.

    Sounds good! I might even make a loadout for the old Challenger then, too.

    Yeah. If I recall the only real 'rules' we have are two fold, 1. Faction specific weapons only (I.E. Fed ships load phasers) and 2. Must load a torpedo tube fore and aft.

    That is a good chunk of it as well as keeping the DPS on the low side :D

    Thank you for the interest in STB. I wouldn't worry about it skill tree too much. My main toon has the worst skill tree as he was my first one and TBH he does fine. But if you have any questions there are some really knowledgeable Captains within STB that can help you.

    The invite will be most like sent by an admin before I log on but I will send one as well when I do log on tonight. Again thank you for your interest and I look forward to meeting you in game Captain 07

    This is actually a really cool idea.

    I am not so sure what i would fly though, Id have to completely build up a new ship for this but it'd be fun to play against the borg and...have a fight that lasts awhile with tension.

    im @Kitsunami in game, add me :)

    Thank you for your interest in STB.

    Fly any ship you want... if you need help with builds it's always safe to stay with what the ship came with. Or use vids from YT for screen accuracy. Also you can always ask in chat, someones always willing to help.

    I also wanted to thank all who have given STB a shot. Looking at the number of views on the thread (40k+) it is humbling to know that my idea of playing STO like ST has been shared with many missing that ST feeling.

    Thru STB I have met some really good people and have made some friends and only hope that the trend continues.

    Thank you once again to those who have made STB possible... Captain Trizeo signing out 07
