V.S.S. Tanius

I noticed the admiralty card as a reward for "the Breach" event, but no one has commented if the ship will be commissioned. I would really like a new Vulcan ship. Maybe a Vulcan cruiser. The D'kyr is weak compared to T6.

    You don't get a ship you just get a card

    It isn't a Vulcan ship. It's Voth.

    I read the OP as "will they make a new Vulcan ship" rather than him thinking you'll get one with the card. I could be wrong though lol.

    However, I would like to see new species specific tier 6 ships. I'm gagging for an Orion one. And I would like to see some new andorian ships. Vulcan ships would be cool too.

    Only other species I'd like to see is more caitian (sp?) Ships. I bet they make a pretty amazing looking escort!

    It's called "V.S.S. Tanius". It's an individual ship. How in the world did you come to the conclusion that an individual ship could get "commissioned"?

    *glances over at Tovan Khev*

    ...oh yeah. Right. That's how. =p


    Anyway, apparently, "V.S.S." is now the Voth ship prefix now too, shared with Vulcan ships.​​

    That is one huge oversight here.

    Of course could aliens theoretically share a prefix, if they would use one in the first place (for the most part it's Cryptics invention that everyone uses a prefix). But traditionally they use a prefix so everyone can have their own. In this case it seems Cryptic simply forgot they gave that prefix to the Vulcans.​​

    Ah, but this is an Admiralty ship, and ostensibly under your command! So undoubtedly the V.S.S. prefix in this case means the ship was captured by the Vulcans and given their prefix upon refit for Federation service. Problem solved!

    That ship is a citadel class voth ship, based on a downscaled voth cityship ( http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Voth_city_ship )
    The city ship is around 9 km long, the citadel in game i guess around 5km.
    In comparasion, a borg cube is 3km long, wide and tall. Even the playable vonph would be a joke compared to it based on size.

    I would agree I would love to see some new species specific ships added. Like for me I always wondered what the Bynar would made an use as a starship, since they are connected to their computer an use a binary style system of linking two twins. An I agree I would love to see a Orion science ship, a Gorn or Nausicaan escort/raider, but also I would love a Gorn dreadnought to see what they would make.

    If they were going to add another Caitian ship though I would rather it be along the lines of a Fersian stealth style destroyer, and that by owning both race's ships gives you the ability to use them on both factions, as well as bonuses parts to be used on both ships giving them a more race specific looks of either Fersian or Caitian style.

    Worst. Event. Yet...no mirror weapon, shotgun, torpedo. It's just something for the Admiralty system, which is boring in itself.
  • hunteralpha84hunteralpha84 Member Posts: 524 Arc User
    Fersian stealth destroyer would be awesome! I'd buy and level a fersian just to fly it.

    There's so many faction race ships they could make it seems a shame that they just pump out lockbox ships all the time.

    Especially on the kdf side. They could add TRIBBLE loads of gorn, Orion and nausicaan ships.

    That is how I read it as well. Kinda like "Hmm, if they're making an Admiralty card for a heretofore unseen ship, maybe the new ship itself is in the works too."

    Same speculation happened when the USS Rhode Island Admiralty Card came out. It's the #1 reason I advocate for a T6 Connie Admiralty Card released on the First of next month.

    You are both correct. Just some wishful thoughts. Now that I know the admiralty ship card is Voth, there is a good possibility the V.S.S. was an oversight. I really want to fly a Vulcan cruiser.
