Top 5 NPC KDF-Align Alien Ships U Want To See Playable Thread

Hey all, while i do have a ''KDF Needs More End Game Tier 5 Ships Thread'' which is aim for the KDF Community to demand Cryptic to give more Tier 5 Ships to the KDF faction while the gap between Tier 5 Fed and KDF lineup becomes larger in favor towards the Feds.

I decided to make a separate thread dedicated specifically for the KDF Community if not the STO Community in general to make a unofficial vote for 5 NPC KDF-Align Alien Ships they want to see converted into playable and more detailed versions of these ships, While the KDF-Align Races such as the Orions, Nausicaans and Gorn do have ships in the KDF lineup, they have few on Tier 5 and even fewer with Fleet versions and there have been no new designs of any KDF-Alien Ships since b4 the game went F2P.

The goal of this thread is to demand Cryptic to convert some of these NPC ships that we want to use in game as playable detail versions like they did with the Scimitar for the Romulan Puppet Subfaction.

Here's the list of ships from Frigates to Dreadnoughts that have no playable versions currently u can vote for... Hopefully Cryptic reads this thread and see how the KDF/STO Community want to use them and decides to make them playable for the KDF faction..

    Fek'Ihri Horde ships please, would love the k'norr as its one of my favourite ( have purchased the holo emitter numerous times ), would love to see a ton of new ships ( an c-store clothing options ). The time has come to give some love to the kdf. Just give 5 playable fek'lhr horde ships an I will be fine.

    - Balaur
    - Warbarge
    - Tuatara
    - Destroyer
    - Syphon

    I also wouldn't mind getting the original Warbarge skin for the Vo'quv.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    It is hard to choose as I really want most of them to be added. However, here is my top five:

    Orion Warbarge
    K'Norr
    Naus Destroyer-Escort
    Orion Interceptor (shuttle)
    Brigand Cruiser


    And for those who want to know beyond that,

    Orion Corvette
    Tuatara Cruiser
    Naga Fighter (shuttle)
    Stinger Fighter (shuttle)
    Vishap Frigate
    Syphon Frigate
    Talon Battleship
    S'Kul Fighter
    Fer'jai Frigate
    Balaur Dreadnaught (both original and new models)

    Preferably in that order.

    I've asked for a wee bit for the KDF Dreadnought 3pack of Balaur, Ravager, and Warbarge. If I had to put them in order, though - it would be:

    1) Warbarge
    2) Balaur
    3) Ravager

    So getting into the remaining two ships for my top 5, I'd have to go with:

    4) Talon Battleship (as an actual Cruiser with all four Commands, leaning Tac)
    5) Zilant Battleship (as an actual Cruiser with all four Commands, leaning Sci)

    Lets not forget the Fighters and shuttles either! Somehow it feels...wrong having to use a Klingon shuttle as a Gorn, Nausicaan, or Orion when the NPCs already have several shuttles to use.

    In regards to actual ships though, the top three I'd like to see would be:

    1) Orion Warbarge
    2) Syphon Frigate
    3) Ravager

    My Top 5 would be:
    1. Nausicaan Siphon Frigate
      T1 w/??? console; T5 w/hangar; Fleet; 2-piece bonus for using ??? console + Siphon Drone (any quality) hangar pet: Structural Integrity Siphon: your Siphon Drones also apply a Kinetic DoT (100% Shield Penetration) to their current target, which heals the carrier pet an amount equal to the damage inflicted
    2. Gorn Balaur Dreadnought
      T5 w/Universal console; Fleet; put the "dread" in dreadnought, Tractor Beam Slingshot console: uses a combination of tractor and repulsor beams to capture a target w/in 5 km and sling it around your ship and towards the nearest enemy (if no other enemy is within 5 km, simply hurls the target in front of your ship), while enabling collision (similar to Ramming Speed) with the target's allies; because... Gorn and throwing things
    3. Fek'Ihri K'Norr Escort
      T5 w/ Tactical console; Fleet; can equip Phase Shift Generator console; Infernal Energies Tactical console: useable on any Fek'Ihri ship, +26.2% Antiproton damage, +13.1% Chroniton and Tricobalt Weapon damage, + Thermal DoT on critical to those damage types; 2-piece bonus for using Infernal Energies Tac console + Phase Shift Generator: Infernal Synergy: cooldown for Phase Shift Generator reduced to 1 min, +5% bonus Antiproton, Chroniton, Thermal, and Tricobalt damage
    4. Orion Interceptor
      Small Craft; because the KDF has one C-Store Small Craft; equivalent specs to Stalker Stealth Fighter, but with bonus aft weapon slot with 360-degree Weapon and Engine Power Drain Beam rather than Thoron Generator Module console and Low Energy Signature
    5. Nausicaan Stinger Fighter
      Small Craft; because the KDF has one C-Store Small Craft; equivalent specs to Delta Class Shuttle but with designated Tac seat rather than Sci

    [EDIT] Some Ferasan ships would be nice, too. ;)

    I want a Laparus to ride around on the water in Risa, and a non combat pet Raichu.


    OH SHIPS... :cool:

    Orion dreadnought
    Obsidian Order sold Keldon
    5 Forward Escort
    K'Vort
    Dedicated T5 Science Vessel
    I use to do 100K DPS, but then I took an arrow to the knee.


    Your Ramming Speed III deals 242658 (243540) Kinetic Damage (Critical) to you.

    the 5 Orion ships in the game that are currently not available as player ships. (With at least 1 unique Orion Bridge for them)I love my Orion toons and try to run almost full Orion Crews on them for Bridge Officers.

    1: Warbarge Dreadnought
    2: Orion Corvette
    3: Brigand Cruiser
    4: Slavemaster Battleship
    5: Orion Interceptor fighter/shuttle

    close 6th for me would be the Nausicaan Destroyer Escort purely for the look of a non Orion ship in my list.

    How about instead of just making one ship out of each of these we get the basic Tier 1 to 4 versions and then Refit, Retrofit, and fleet versions for level 40+? Maybe I'm just greedy, but I'm still leveling characters and having new ships for them to ride their way to the top in wouldn't hurt my feelings. And KDF ship selection would finally be a match for the Feds. Ah what a dream.

    Orion Corvette
    Destroyer Escort
    Maybe the first 2 fek ships.

    Player ships are getting too big in this game, everyone's flying dreadnoughts. The oddy and bort and voquv are supposed to be imposing and dominate a battle scene, now they barely compare to the lineup in a typical stf.

    More frigate sized stuff!

    The allied ships should fill up the lower ranks, along with having their lvl 50 refits.
    My favourites would have to be:
    1) Nausicaan Destroyer (with raider flanking)
    2) Nausicaan Talon (tac-oriented, full cruiser commands)
    3) Gorn Tuatara (sci-oriented, full cruiser commands)
    4) Fek'lhri K'Norr
    5) Gorn Vishap, Nausicaan Siphon, Orion Corvette - alternative starter ships, given to the player according to their species)

    I'd be OK with a fleet Pig Carrier for now (Marauder)

    Although I love to see that its not just like 3-5 of us these days advertising for the KDF that we do need more lol.

    All those ships mentioned by the OP are needed for the way Cryptic rolled out the KDF although they are no poster child for finishing what they started. It will most likely never happen because we are lucky to get 1 ship a year so many if this game lasts like 50 more years we might get them then. It won't happen in my life time that is for sure.
