According to the post-launcher from June 14th 8am PST through June 18th 10am PST there is a -20% Ship, Services, & Costumes sale. Douubtful that the newest & shiniest will be included but one never knows & it is still helpful to many I'm sure.

Although actually finding said new ship in the store is a nightmare because it's not on the store front and the t6 list is desperately in need of filtering options to put the players current faction at the top or not burying claimable ships randomly in the middle.
Might pick up the jem carrier if it is on sale and if the jems actually have access to missions and skipping. Motivation for gamma BZ has waned severely.
For that I get 3 cool traits that can be used with any ship, 3 cool consoles that can be used on any ships with powerful & cool set bonuses, and 3 T6 Intel ships of different classes that can be used by any character, 2 basic Yukuwa Frigates for free usable on any ships hangar bay, Advanced and Elite Yukuwa Frigates unlocked, which can be used in any ship with a Hangar Bay, a former T5 Lockbox ship, Spiral Wave Disruptors unlocked, a Special Cardassian bridge that seems inspired by DS9, and if I understand the promotion right, a 1 free upgrade token for a single character.
That is a good deal honestly.
Seems most things in the store are effected by this sale.
The Elite Starter Pack is under Services, but being a fairly new introduction I was pleasantly surprised it being on sale already. Despite the glitch-filled debut for this pack, it wasn't the pack's fault after all but Cryptic's, it was a good deal at 1500 zen if all of it is usable but at 1200 zen, "great deal," indeed.
One of those few items/services where the more characters you have the greater the value too.
Agreed, I didn't really need it.. but 1200 Zen for bank space on 7 characters was just too good to not get.
WOW, so despite the Energy Credit increase, you really maximized your value of goodies per that pack. Nicely done!
I think, overall, Cryptic did a nice assortment of Dominion & Cardassian ships. I'm posting this after the sale has ended, but I still think that smaller Gamma Pack is the best value for one's money. It wasn't on sale this time & for 2000 zen you are getting a couple of titles, just added fluff, the playable Vanguard Jem'Hadar with the space trait, the Dominion Vanguard Dreadnought Cruiser, & if you ever decide to buy the mega Gamma Pack you will get a -2000 zen discount. Besides, we all get that little spunky T5U Jem'Hadar Escort for free. :-) Good luck.

I bought the gamma starter pack before the sale and it was a great deal worth every penny I spent on it hahaha, I actually traded dil for zen so it cost me nothing. But humour aside it was a great deal.
I got a race worth 600 Zen, a ship worth 3000 zen, an outfit that can be used on almost any character, for 2000 Zen, 2000 zen instead of 3600.
During the Sale I got the Cardassian Pack which individually is worth 3000 Zen for each T6 plus the T5 Galor worth like 2500 Zen (total value 11500 Zen) for 4800 Zen. Plus 2 extra character slots for 500 zen.
Actually money I spent, $13 Canadian.
Nice going & well done. It is definitely nice turning dilithium into some zen when it is low cost like currently.
