TOS Veteran Ship Skin

I know you cant really say TOS is a faction but it would be nice to have a skin for the T6/T5 Veteran Ships to have a skin would it not. Doesn't not need any different abilities (Maybe change the graphic and sound effect for the phaser lotus/ tachyon drain)

I think it would potentially look very cool.

Anyone else agree?

    I do. I don't have a LTS but I'd welcome more TOS skins. Cryptic's TOS designs look really good.​​

    Yeah, it's quite the missed opportunity. Especially considering how the Prototype Dreadnought Cruiser (Atlas) is pretty much how the chimera/manticore would look in TOS style.

    Actually... it looks more like the granddaddy of the Command Battlecruisers to me. The spaceframe is a lot like the Engie Command Ship.

    That's a good idea, and a way to sell more LTS.

    I had thought an interesting, top-level perk to add to LTS would be a token you could use to unlock ONLY 1 lockbox/lobi/R&D promo ship for your account for all characters to use.

    That might be too generous since the "list price" of a lock box ship is 250 keys, and an R&D pack ship is 100 packs. Account-wide 1.x billion credit Connie unlock is worth more than the full cost of the LTS.

    Cryptic might consider a "re-boxing token" to let you transfer a ship from one character to another.

    The value-added proposition that you pointed out would make for a very compelling selling point, which is why I thought it was a viable idea.

    Not a bad idea, OP. I was never one to expect the Lifetime Perks to have been expanded as far at they have. That said, it's up to what? 1000 Days? Many of us are well beyond that by now. Refreshing the perks might be somewhat in order.

    How about a T5 Mirror Universe Constiution Class Refit, earnable in a mission like the temporel ambasador.
