    Nah. I'm reasonably sure that it's in response to the JHAS shortage lately. There's been several threads popping up these days asking for it. Especially since the ship is over 850mil now. I think they want them rare, but not quite that rare.

    Is the box you get with the pack (The one with the chance of Lobi or Jem) bound to character/account?

    I might pick up a few of those, the price will skyrocket once the promotion ends

    Are you making the correct Picard hand gesture while hitting engage? :)

    So you get the container with 10 lobi or Bug ship when you buy the packs from the C-store, but does that mean there is also a chance for the bug with the duty officer pack itself? Or is it only in the container?

    I already have one but that's good to see this little monster back.
    If you guys get one, keep it because it's gonna be your best friend for a while.

    I also like how some shield visuals (like the Nukara one) makes it look like a tough little tank, which kinda fits how it's very resilient unlike the canon version which while tough enough to survive a crash mostly undamaged can't stand a couple of phaser shots.

    The only bridge it can get is too small and ugly, though. Would be nice to be able to choose another... and to be able to leave it instead of staying confined with 2 Boffs like prisoners.

    Will their story ever be expanded to why they were found or just speculative wormhole/temporal displacement/iconians/Q/Santa Claus?

    And will the "alien" bridges ever get some love with the ability to leave them and explore the ship to meet the crew and set your trophies?

    Already filed a ticket. Will check IE, thanks.

    EDIT: No luck. Really starting to fume, now, as I don't want to miss the MU event.

    Incoming Priority One message from CaptainSmirk!

    Buying old Romulan Duty Officer Packs from the exchange will NOT give you a chance to win the Jem'Hadar attack ship in our current promotion (or opening old ones). Only newly purchased packs will have the chance to win as the mechanic has changed. Make sure to read the details in our blog post to bring yourselves up to speed with this new information.

    Good luck out there! I hope to see a bunch of new JHAS flying around very soon!

    Soooo... the Gamma Quadrant Duty Officer Cadre aren't available for this promotion?


    http://community.arcgames.com/en/news/star-trek-online/detail/3031043-season-8-dev-blog-_43

    "We have also made an improvement to the Duty Officer Packs found in this Lock Box. In addition to the return of the Gamma Quadrant Mini-Pack last seen in the Dominion Lock Box, we’re also including a Full Size Gamma Quadrant Duty Officer Cadre as a possible prize in the Hirogen Lock Box. This full-sized doff pack will contain the same officer selection found in the now-retired C-Store pack (1 Blue+, 2 Green+ and 4 White+), including the ability to contain bonus prizes during special Duty Officer promotions that affect this pack IF it is opened during that promotion."

    We don't want what the Feds have. We want the equivalent. We want fairer treatment. Concern, desire, greed to some extent, and passionate belief that the enough people would buy KDF items to make it worth Cryptic's while.

    And why did you tell people in the hirogen dev blog that the gamma cadres in it would be eligible for promo events too?

    Good question, but reading is fundamental and the key to all your questions. Bolding and making yellow the important part: "...including the ability to contain bonus prizes during special Duty Officer promotions that affect this pack IF it is opened during that promotion."

    This promotion DOES NOT affect this pack, therefore, no, this is not eligible. If there happens to be a promotion "that affects all" or "that affects the GQ Cadre", then it would be eligible.

    Hope that helps!

    Cheers,

    Ok its safe to say the 100 buck ship pack did not sell as well as they thought. Time to dangle the ship shaped carrot in front of them for some money time. I don't mean to be Trollock Homes, but saw this coming a mile off. I am guessing they will alternate between this pop boat and the giant sex toy looking fail boat thing (it really needed to be a cruiser and not a flight deck thing). Oh well everyone throw YOUR and make it go away.

    They just said they sold well, and this stuff is all planned out well in advance.

    I predict the Jem'hadar ship will keep coming back time and time again regardless of what else is or is not selling.
