It looks awesome; and i've read somewhere it ha a 5/3 weapon layout. WoW!
How can i obtain this ship? Is there an current promotion -doff or R&D packs- at the moment?
A quick forum search would have answered your question, and let you know that all other threads on this subject have been locked down.
But, yeah. Can't get it. Really, as I have the D'Kora and the Nandi, I would have likely chased after this ship, but what I really really want is the Box-o-Swag that got mailed out to those who got the ship. So, while I hope maybe a non-gold version of the ship becomes available, I really hope the hat/shirt/glasses become available at some point. The signed copy of the game? Fun, but only useful if the promo codes still work...

At about 24 minutes into the Priority One Podcast linked below, Steve Ricossa (EP of STO) discusses the giveaway. I will listen to it on the way home from work.
One thing's for sure, you're never going to get it by spamming the forums with requests.
Just sayin.
It's not you- it's me. I just need my space.

I've asked a question, only one; no spamming, or request. Just saying
You're not the only one asking, and this isn't the only thread.

Oh and in before lock.

You are supposed to search the forums (not just peek at first page) before starting a new thread. That's why you're getting these responses. You are adding to the forum spam.

"these responses" ? - it was only one of 'those responses' actually. And i was searching for something clear and official. I've searched only the arc sto news site . I got my response now; My thanks goes to the people that cleared that out for me.
This thread must be closed now since the i got my answer awhile back

This is a really inappropriate response to the question.
But also, people get tired of seeing the same topic being posted over and over and over and over. Yours is at least the 10th thread on this topic posted in this subforum in the last week. The horse has already been dug up many times for further bludgeoning.
Not doing a proper search before posting can imply you don't care about other people, who have already taken the time to answer your question more than once in other threads. That hopefully was not the case and it was just a new poster mistake.

The interviewer mentions the ship and that PWE already put out a statement about it to MassivelyOP, but his question was about people having promo emails disabled on their accounts. All Steve basically said was if people turn the emails promos back on they should get the email for the ship, but also they are going to "push" the ship to accounts that were suppose to get it. I have seen someone say they found the ship in the promotions tab of the c-store without ever getting any email about it. I'm assuming Steve meant they're going to manually add the ship to people's accounts.
A more brief summery: All Steve said was they were going to make sure people who were suppose to get the ship are going to get it. He didn't address any concerns of the community.
With each passing day I wonder if I stepped into an alternate reality. The Cubs win the world series. Donald Trump is President. Britain leaves the EU. STO gets a dedicated PvP season. Engineers are "out of control" in STO.
Thanks to those of you who educated OP about frequent posts. It's good that he learns how to search.
wow, this forum is really toxic, isn't it?
Yes, it is.

^ This. And oh, by the way OP- if you think I'm "contributing to the toxicity" in any way- there's a nice Flag button you can use to "report" me, and a mod will determine whether or not my post(s) fall within the guidelines of the forum rules.
I'd be willing to bet your thread gets locked before my post(s) get removed.
Have yourself a wonderful day!

One of the things I had hoped to have seen in all of the years I have had a lifetime sub to this game (from the first day of the head start), was a lifetimer unique ship hull material. There also needs to be a reason to travel to the Captain's Table that makes players want to go there. I am not asking for anything that is pay to win but something that is more of a novelty exclusive. A Transwarp directly to the Lifetime nebula that doesn't ever have a cooldown may help. Throw in something like a boost called, "The Captain's Prerogative", that gives Lifetime players a 5% boost on marks, XP, and stuff every few hours, to keep players coming back for it.
I would also like to see special things added to the mega packs (even though I don't own many) to make them more attractive to purchase. Like a specially themed ship interior for buying the AoY $130 pack that wouldn't be available any other way. I am not griping because I didn't get a gold ship, but it would be nice if PWE offered up some special incentives to buying things more often. The Voyager interior for the pack is one good example that encourages people to buy that particular bundle.

He actually wouldn't find anything.
The mods here are on an unreal crusade to crush any conversation on this topic. They don't just lock the threads, they remove them. This one will be deleted as well.
They're doing everything they can to push this under the run and not allow any discussion on the topic. This type of behavior is typical of those in power when they know they're wrong and are afraid to discuss the topic.
Even though the great closer Trendy is off doing other things, Askray has taken up the closer mantle.
Not everyone who got the ship also got the swag.

I for my part find it a bit sad if somebody, who does not seem to be around here often given the number of posts, asks a simple question and self-declared forum deputies reply with an attitude.
To answer your question OP. The ship was handed out to a selective group of people in STO. Players who met criteria as in “support the game” were obviously given it.
There has not been any detailed information about what exactly those criteria were. I like the gesture very much that supporters of STO get rewarded in such a fashion however not making the whole thing transparent has a somewhat disappointing tone towards it.
Over the past years I payed a fair amount of money for this hobby. Sometimes more, sometimes less. All depending which direction Cryptic was going with this game. For me it was not that much or nothing I would not have spent for my entertainment one way or the other.
Last Sunday morning I made a discovery in my Z-store reading that the gold marauder is available for me. I never got any mails though. A friend of mine who supported the game equally as far as I can tell did not get the ship.
What can I tell you? The stats are nice but not as good as on a lot of other ships available so you don’t miss much game mechanic wise. I’m not a fan of the Ferengi so the ship also does not astatically please me. Under no circumstances I’d put on the gold hull because I would simply find it embarrassing.
All my 10 toons sit on decent ships. There are 1 or 2 atm for which I consider a new one but the nagus marauder does not qualify for those chars.
The worth of that thing for me personally are the admiralty cards one can never have enough of because it’s the one way ticked out of the grind in STO.
I use this opportunity to thank Cryptic for this gift, however reading how much concern this whole promo caused I wish I could simply give the ship to my friend or to you OP. Somebody who really wants to have it while I won’t make much use of it.

I have the suspicion they may just have this ship available for the winter event. We are sort of running low on the Breen ships after all.

The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life." - Ten Bears (Will Sampson)
though I didn't hold out much hope I thought I would check the promotions tab on the c-store just to be safe, no ship as I expected but I did find the first time buyers pack had appeared there even though the only time I ever bought anything with real £a$h was when I bought my LTS many years ago.
maybe not as nice as a free ship but a nice consolation none the less and with the 3 free lockbox keys within probably more useful in the long run anyway, thanks cryptic.
When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

I'm amazed this is still open myself...goodluck OP

There's no way Cryptic would pass up letting people buy it.
Support 90 degree arc limitation on BFaW! Save our ships from looking like flying disco balls of dumb!
I've check the forums now and the podcast; i am stil confused.

No, it is not related to Britney Spears (unless she is a poster here, which we would be unlikely to be made aware of) or her work.
