    Definitely one of your more innocuous choices. ;)

    I enjoy this for being the one time of year where if I provoke you enough times I can get him to make my Devidian toon show his true form and not just his shapeshifted human disguise, seeing as no one has created a Devidian holoemitter overlay that I am aware of yet...

    Somehow everytime someone says something like this about eppohs i picture your char changing into a male /female/trill/borg epoh and they race. Like running along a round track. But bouncing on cute four legs.

    Not sure if there is somethng like this. But it would be super fun.

    Looking forward to the event and maybe getting my own snow boots. Yay.
    Whether you think you are right or wrong, either way you are RIGHT.

    Its a Chel Grett Warship, which is apparently classified as a Destroyer by its T5U mastery tree. Just like some of the other player versions of ships, they apparently differ from the NPC counterparts. For example: the NPC Plesh Brek is a frigate, while the playable one is a Heavy Raider.

    We'll be getting Plesh Brek Frigates soon enough for our hangars. ;)

    Yes, I'm aware that you're right. :P

    Thus my more realistic suggestion to fix the project name since it clearly states "Claim a Breen Cruiser". I've got it right there under the Event Rep on one of my Romulan captains; I didn't have the Shipyard space for it at the time, so I saved the project and some Q-Pics. It's a relatively minor thing, but it just feels incredibly sloppy that they might have the same "Claim a Breen Cruiser" project two years after Cruiser Commands came out and it was designated a Destroyer.

    Thoroughly looking forward to this year's Winter Event. I sometimes think that people take this game far too seriously sometimes, so it's always fun to get away from all the seriousness and have a bit of a laugh!

    That is not ice! That is the most valuable and priceless Breen Hydro-crystalline formations you or anyone outside of the Breen Confederacy have ever laid eyes upon!

    I am going to enjoy changing you into an ice-arachnid my little art critic. Then we will see what you think of frozen landscape architecture and design.


    Ski Lodge indeed.

    What do I look like, a snow-bunny?



    Oh Picard, Picard... where are you mon capitaine... sigh...

    This really is a thankless job, isn't it? I don't know how the Devs do it.

    Since no one else asked Q, please tell me The Frosty Borgman Band cant adapt, can they? Ive never gotten around to grinding for a snow gun. Maybe this year I will for at least one toon. But if they start adapting to my arm thrown snowballs, Im s*** out of luck and will just walk away.

    And heres the link to my favorite Q moment of all time

    Assuming this game makes it to Christmas 2015, Ive got a suggestion for winter wonderland enemies next year...

    Assimilated Wooden Soldiers!

    When I was a kid, the March of the Wooden Soldiers freaked me out, even though they were the good guys in the movie.

    This game too popular and it will be around for years to come as they improve it. Your right on the mark there with Assimilated Borg Wooden Soldiers would be need. B&W March of the Wooden Soldiers was something for it's time. I wasn't around when it was released but when I did see it was something different than that they produce today.

    Will Endothermic Induction Field be compatible with the current Geologist Doffs? If so, it would go great with my blue-themed Sci.

    "The Impaler" ... nice. :cool:

    "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."

    Clarification:

    The kit modules cannot be used for the winter wonderland combat events? Or are they excepted from the usual limitations?

    Is the "Minty green" a different shade from last year?

    2011 gave us the Blue Blade
    2012 gave us the Purple Blade
    2013 gave us the Green Blade.

    If this is a different shade, maybe we need the modifier changed to [Mnt] to differentiate from last year.
    If it's the same one, I would propose bringing back the old colors as well. (Was inactive those years) :P
