"I'm done with getting ships for a while. Unless they do something crazy, like release a T6 D7 with better BOFF seating than the one that we currently have," I said.
Considering the last (or ones of the last) ships released before Delta Rising were 4 Boff station ones like the Nicor warship and the Patrol escort refit (obviously unique with their 2 Lt.Comm stations barring some earlier carriers), arguments can indeed be made for Tier 7 incoming now that the Devs resorted to 3 Lt.Comm stations on Tier 6.
But damn, I hope this is just an aberration and will try to forget these ships even exist at Tier 6.
And, of course, if they suddenly launch T7 to celebrate the 50th Anniversary... they'd be correcting things so there's no endgame Connie! Dun dun duuuuuun!
When you unpack the British version of the T6 Connie... it doesn't come with "The Corbomite Maneuver"...
... instead, it comes with "The Corbynite Maneuver":
Activation of this console ability will cause holograms to materialise on all your bridge seating, forcing you and all your crew to sit on the floor... nearby enemies are confused by this action. There is a 25% chance that holograms will fail and bearded enemies will become aggravated towards your ship.
Manoeuvre, actually.
Yes, I know... but I wanted to make it look like a Cryptic stat. Thanks ever so much for breaking the immersion with a spot of Anglocentric grammar fascism.
You're most welcome. After spending the last three months playing W. S. Gilbert on stage, Anglocentric grammar fascism is now part of my nature.
I agree that all of us that want these three starships would buy them in cross faction packs or separtately, why put them in loto boxes, unless they can not make money on TOS starships directly?
CBS own / no go, paramount own / go for cash$$$?
Next point, These starships are temporal ships from the future, so they can be more powerful, plus if Defiant class a smaller starship than a Connie can have more powerful weapons, then why not a Connie that is bigger?
If refitted anything could go in the temporal future!

Most fitting indeed.
TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class. Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider. Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.
I " THINK " I speak for the entire STO playerbase when I say this was a great move by PWE/Cryptic.
Fixed it for you there.
And I " THINK " Cryptic has fallen out of the proverbial tree with putting then in the R&D Packs.
Well, it's more of CBS I feel fell out of the tree, I feel.
Also, Dragon, this is how I also feel right about now, regarding this promo thing. ~grabs voodoo doll~
Can anyone let us know if the T'Liss comes with the option to use the I.R.W. prefix?
Would like to know this as well.
I can't see why it wouldn't, spoiling the designation despite the canon look.
Most if not all T6 C-Store warbirds force R.R.W. cause we're all supposed to be good friendly republicans now 'and like it or else', but when it comes to the very expensive rare stuff (lobi, lockbox, promo), then sure, forget republicans, we get our I.R.W. to role play as whatever we wish.
I.R.W. = $$$
R.R.W. = not enough vesphene gas good little republican
Unlock I.R.W. on ALL warbirds please and thank you.
I have a friend who got a T6 T'Liss, and I asked him about the I.R.W. prefix. The answer is no, it CAN"T use it, only R.R.W. Which makes no sense, but there it is. It's meant to pass for a 23rd century ship, but as soon as you hail it, the jig is up!
On the plus side, it CAN use the Beachball of Doom!
I wonder if there have been many T6 Konnie v Connie pvp challenges. I bet there's got to be some TOS zealots who have been obsessively hunting down any Kelvin Constitutions they can find, to challenge to a duel in order to prove their superiority. LOL.
I've had a couple of challenges on my AOY's Konnie, so that and this thread got me wondering.

Won't take long to find out if your premise is true. These three ships were the first set of Temporal ships released after the initial AoY release. Waiting to see if the next release of ships will also be lockbox type delivery.

[sarcasm]Boy would that be fun having all future ships added to the game being lock box or promo back only[/sarcasm]
Just want to know why is has 11 consoles.....that's been up till now reserved for fleet T6?
Hundreds, literally hundreds of ships have 11 consoles. In addition to actual fleet ships, many ships come at "fleet level" like T5/T6 Scimitars, T5/T6 Odysseys, all lock box ships, all lobi ships, and all previous and current promo ships. There's also event ships, the original pilot ships, and probably more that I can't remember off the top of my head.
When you see "TRIBBLE" in my posts, it's because I manually typed "TRIBBLE" and censored myself.

Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!
No, some C-Store ships are "fleet level" out of the box. All T6 lockbox, lobi and pack ships are already "fleet level."
Well, it's more of CBS I feel fell out of the tree, I feel.

Because that's not even remotely true?
