    So....now that the war between the FEDs and the KDF is over, PvP is purely war games and a galactic triumvirate has been formed, can we foresee a fully independent Romulan faction? :rolleyes:

    I have, unforunately, come to the sad conclusion that our devs are incapable of finishing anything. Like the husband who begins a thousand 'home improvement' projects, yet completes NONE. A really great expansion was brought out, LOR, then set to the sidelines in favor of voth and undine.

    Our devs are great at starting wars, but lacking in bringing any of them to an actual conclusion.

    It would take DEVELOPMENT and GROWTH to achieve complete independence for the Romulan Faction. Now I'd love to see this happen like many Romulan Players, but, that would mean actually finishing something they started. So I seriously doubt it will ever happen.

    Cash cow #2 off-shoot of Starfleet. That's the future.

    Oh, wait, there's KDF Romulans? Let me laugh some more!
    Nessia (KDF Sci)
    IKS Korrasami (Fleet B'rel Bird of Prey Retrofit T5-U)

    In the end, the way they added the Romulans as a "fraction" allows them to add more "fractions" in the future that folks may want. It's a method of futureproofing - thinking ahead. Imagine years down the road if the game had 5+ complete factions and how spread out the playerbase would become?

    season 12: new talaxian faction. 40% base critH 160% critD
    neelix boff unique to the faction with both supOp and supInf traits...

    i cant wait.

    "So...now" depends on what your actual "now" is - which may or may not involved the war being over. Up until the war is over, the war is not over.

    You're looking at now. Everything that happens now is happening now.

    What happened to then? We passed then. When? Just now. We're at now now.

    They should have been independent in the first place, with an option to join a side if you wanted to. But it would seem that someone got either stingy or lazy halfway through and decided that it was cheaper and easier to make you pick a side then run the same exact missions that you'd experience if you'd started with that faction in the first place, but at the same time give romulans access to fed/Klingon ships, and keep their ships to themselves. If I'd known I'd be running the same missions over again, I would never have even bothered starting a romulan character.

    Running the same missions bugs me less than being constantly referred to as a klingon or federation member and the times you end up with fed/kdf interiors when running these missions.
