How do you dress non-romulan bridge officers?

Any suggestions for what uniforms to use for Federation bridge officers serving on a Romulan crew? Not a lot seems to go with the Republic uniform.

    I'd suggest maybe matching the Kobali uniform without the shoulderpads and knee gear.

    Just match the colors right and the Kobali lettering won't appear on the front vest.


    But then again my crew is just plain Romulan

    The Xindi clothing options can look pretty Romulan if you remove that weird wicker chestpiece.

    The Jem'Hadar armor has some prominent shoulders as well, and works pretty well with a recolor.

    non-romulans on my bridge? The hell you say?

    more seriously Jem Hadar pants/boots imo work well even for romulans aside from that, the kobali is the only one that can be modified so I let her revel in her racial armor

    Indeed. I never understood the mechanic behind it. I have all Romulans and Remans. And Worked up a very nice Reman Shocktrooper uniform using the Reman Neutral, Kobali armor, and the Vaadwaur gasmask.

    No matter what species, just give everyone the Vaadwaur uniform, and colour it to look like a Jedi robe. Problem solved.
    I completed a 2-man CSE, ISE, and KASE, Optionals included. And I soloed Winter Invasion.

    In the airlock non Rom officers are not apart of my crew.

    But if I was to dress them then I would make them wear uniforms and make them sorta diplomacy officers so purple or summit

    Well, I have one Starfleet Officer aboard my crew and since her loyalties or faction hasn't changed, she wears the Starfleet uniform.

    I have a single Vulcan Boff serving on board my Romulan Science captain's ship. The others are Romulans and Remans. The uniform I use is Sierra 4 jacket and Romulan Republic 2 pants and everyone has black / dark green color palette.

    Well, since most of my non-Romulan Boffs are the ones from Featured Episodes, and they can't be changed, I haven't given it much thought.

    My one true Fed boff from the "choose your Ally" mission is dressed in the Odyssey Uniform, and in my mind he's an exchange program officer.

    Wait, you let beings who are not loyal citizens of the Star Empire (or Romulan Republic, if you lost your spine after Hobus) on your bridge? Let alone your ship?

    Treason!

    Because I am merciful, I allow them the option of taking a spacesuit with them into the airlock before I space them.

    I may have to work with Earthers, but I do not have to allow them to serve on my vessel.

    Starfleet Odyssey uniform, but with Romulan-green trim. He is, after all, a rental.

    Each of my Romulan crews has a single officer from their respective allied faction. They are there as liaison officers, and as such wear the standard uniform of their military.

    From a RP perspective, some of them are actually characters from my other crews, and function as "guest stars".

    The Android BOff can't wear Romulan uniforms either.

    I put everyone in the Intel uniform, with Romulan colors. It actually looks very similar to the NPC Romulan uniforms because of how visually complex they are.

    Seriously. :P

    I have one non-Romulan on my crew... and it's my Android. She looks like a Romulan, though, and she wears T'Pol's uniform (in black). :D

    In related news, I've thought about putting Tovan Khev in tattered clothes... because he's less Romulan than my Android. :P

    Thats probably becuase its basically the Reman uniform from Nemesis with that weird wicker chestpiece added to it.


    Also I went with a Vulcan tactical officer in the Odyssey uniform as it fits my Romulan's rag tag bunch of misfits shtick.

    Um, the regulation Odyssey uniform? He's a Starfleet exchange officer.

    ETA: I know a little something about this. When I was a kid my dad, a US Navy officer, spent two years as an exchange officer with the Royal Australian Navy. But he still wore regulation American uniforms when we were in Oz.

    That works really well. Romulan Intel uniforms in Commander Mena's or Subcommander Sahen's colours are pretty easy to do. I've got my new Delta alt in that. He's Starfleet, but a Romulan (customized alien) so he's in the Intel jacket, and so are the Romulan Embassy boffs.

    Also, some boffs can wear the Mercenary clothing options, making them very easy 'transfers' into the Republic Militia we see walking around New Romulus / the Flotilla. For those that can't, the Kobali armour can be coloured to look very close, as well as the TOS Klingon top.

    For my Reman Captain, I put all non-Reman Boffs in an Intel uniform, colored to match the Nemesis uniform. Too bad we can't customize the random riff raff who populate the rest of the ship, or I'd do the same with them. And turn down the lights while I'm at it.

    I know a guy playing an Andorian working with the RRF. He used the Short Intel jacket in shades of black and dark blue to make an extremely good imitation of the ENT Imperial Guard uniform.

    All my boffs wear the groovy 60's ToS uniforms. The android is the only non Romulan on crew and wears the mirror universe outfit.

    I only have a few select "non" romulan BOFF. Basically, everything that could be part of a post-Hobus Romulan crew, but doesn't have access to Romulan customization.
    For example the Android, "regular" borg, and the photonic boff. My android and photonic BOFF looks like Romulan anyway.
    And a few slav... I mean, valued crew members from conquered species. Like breen, jem'hadar and the usual storyline stuff. But quite frankly, they are more token boff than anything else. Since the boff revamp, they are not used anymore.

    No fed/KDF crew members.

    Especially not Klingons. It takes weeks to wash the smell away. Best to burn the warbird and buy another one.



    I usually go with the Dyson fleet costume. Which is factionless enough. I suppose the fleet miner uniform would work to, but I don't like how it looks.

    You can also use the rep armors (except for the KHG, it's way too klingon in the look).

    I made up a special "Republic Liaison Officer" Odyssey uniform variant: Same shade of gray as my Romulans' uniforms for the body, division-colored shoulders, green stripe with silver piping.

    Then I got a Gorn enemy faction officer from the Diplomacy Doff missions, and I did the same thing as on my Fed main: Dyson researcher long coat and uniform. Seriously, it looks badass on a big hulking Gorn while still being sleek.
