    Thanks for the ships. I didn't have any of the ships that were given away, so I didn't have to spend Zen on those and they were what I wanted too. Anyway, thanks for the free ships.

    Claim it once on any character. Just make sure you claim all three ships.

    The ships are account wide unlocks. Once you claim it on one character, it will be available in the future, even if you delete the ship.

    @pwelaughingtrendy Just out of curiosity, how come there's nothing on Sunday? I'm more than happy with today's stuff, but it does seem a bit... odd.

    I already had the Defiant and the Romulan. But the KDF I didn't have so that will be a welcome ship to have.

    Nice PvP toy, I'd imagine. Might come in handy for some PvE encounters as well, I'll have to try it out.

    Awesome, especially like the Ar'kala coupled with the Ar'kif Retrofit from the last giveaway. Two ships plus set bonus. Thanks, Cryptic.

    ... Said anyone who bought the Sao Paulo for the battle cloak. I wonder if that was intentional, enticing people to buy the Sao Paulo to complete the set before the giveaway while simultaneously enticing people to buy the Valiant after the giveaway. It almost worked on me, intentional or not. :tongue:

    first thanks for free ship !
    in "Age of Admiralty" is another ship always welcome....

    only bad thing is Quad cannons for feds / romulans , useless console for Klingons .....


    this makes me sad : "You get a quad cannon, you get a quad cannona, everyone gets a quad cannon, well unless you are a stinking klink!"

    be proud Federation ! your captains are best ..........

    I had a bit of extra entertainment money and bought the Sao Paulo last month, but I didn't have the other two ships so it balances out for me, as far as I'm concerned.
    Thanks again Cryptic, for all the goodies this week.

    Today we're giving away the Ar’kala Tactical Warbird, Puyjaq Class and Sao Paulo Tactical Escort Refit

    Nice. Didn't have the klingon bird yet.


    <Waits for someone to complain that the give away is "only Tier4" >

    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    January has 31 days, tomorrow we get another thing, I'm guessing something from the services category, free dry dock slots probably.

    Thanks very much for the free ships!

    KDF people: if they had given "only" a T3 ship (with the quad cannons) then people would just complain about the unfairness of getting a lower-tier ship.

    Doesn't sound sincere. Try again and perform better next time.

    Re-read the blog. Check under the first instruction. It says the giveaway is available for 48 hours.

    I'm not so sure.
    Every other time it's been Five Days of Freebies, today is the fifth day and Trendy says the T4 ships are available till Monday morning.

    Color me hopeful, but I think this is it.

    Of course since this is the SIXTH Anniversary, perhaps we'll get a SIXTH item (hint, Hint, HINT!)

    Thank you Cryptic, I've appreciated all the free gifts so far.

    Know at least, that at least this one player is thankful and grateful.

    Still a little sad I missed the Dilithium one because it ended early. But at least I got a KDF ship I didn't own yet so I'm happy with that. :)​​

    Yeah -- my Fleetmate just bought the Sao Paulo YESTERDAY to get the quads, he's going to be a bit annoyed. Why don't they say what they're giving away ahead of time?

    Technically, none of the stuff They've given away so far is "NEW", as it's all been available to acquire and/or purchase for awhile.
    So technically, Her statement is somewhat misleading and therefore could be interpreted in any number of ways.
    There's also nothing in Her statement that eliminates the possibility that an item could be given away for Two Days in a row.

    Here's hoping it also technically includes the chance that Two Items could be given away on One Day.

    :D

    That happens. It's the same thing that there's usually, no always a discount/sale shortly after you made a purchase.

    But with an ongoing give away the smart thing would have been to wait.

    There was an ongoing giveaway, he should know better than to buy something during one.
