    I know it is just 1 angle & 1 screenshot but that M'Chla Refit looks wickedly delightful! Dare I say perhaps better than the new Temer-class too???

    The recruitment rewards read as comparable (& good) to the Fed-only Temporal recruitment rewards while not the same so that is a bit of a shame for us that missed the Fed-only Temporal recruitment.

    I plan to fully embrace this Klingon recruitment event, so far seems nicely thought out by Cryptic. So why am I anticipating the other shoe to drop or something lol?

    The ship doesn't have any specialty seating, and only has 9 consoles, so there are better ships out there. On the other hand, it's all universal seating, so you can do interesting things.
    I'm curious what the account unlocks will be. Delta and Temporal recruits gave some nice reputation system bonuses. It'll be interesting to see what Klingon recruitment gives us.

    As a refit, you can use that skin with the original c-store one.. also, if they are going to refit the entire DSC Klingon line, my god, that would be awesome!!... and i will be broke! :lol:
    The forces of darkness are upon us!

    Reading through that description, it's a T6 with 4/2 weapons and no experimental... Am I missing something, or is this the worst T6 ship in the game?

    They want you to buy the zen m'chla to get the real t6 version.

    My main is a Klingon tac. Been meaning to roll an engineer for a while now and he'll be going into a T6 Vorcha anyway.

    I think it's a shame they did a reskinned M'chala. this woulda been a good time to make a T6 K'tanga avalaible outside of a lockbox

    I think it's effectively like the T5U escort the Jem'Hadar start with (also slightly nerfed compared to other T5Us), only they are calling it a T6 and letting you earn a trait with it.

    I think your assessment is close to spot-on & was Cryptic's intent. I think it looks wicked but the stats disappoint me so probably won't pilot it at top-levels, perhaps pilot it while leveling-up then switch to the Temer-class.

    The fleet version is a Pilot ship with Pilot seats. I'm curious how ship customization will work, whether it's one part or multiple parts. And I'd like more images too, it looks cool. I'm curious if the recruitment will be for any KDF faction character you make, or if it's just Klingons.

    The ship looks nice. Kinda excited for this.

    Same here. Nice to see a Disco Klingon ship look....well.....Klingon for once. :)

    Never liked the M’Chla visually. Like all the other Discovery ships, besides the Constitution, it is an ugly mess. Properly alien though... just not Klingon, more like "Xenomorph".

    This one however from that angle. I like that. That looks Klingon thus far.

    I have Tac Delta Recruit Klingon so I probably make a Eng Klingon Recruit this time.

    The recruitment event blog actually says it's for all KDF faction, not just the Klingons (either new or old version). Only those who start as KDF though (not allied Romulan or Dominion).

    EDIT: Or I thought it did but now I can't find it.

    Correct, it stated it is for any of the species under the Klingon-faction so: Klingon (new & old) Orion, Lethean, Nausicaan, Gorn which are the standard then there's the Alien too.

    Hopefully Cryptic had forethought about: Cardassian, Joined Trill, Liberated Borg, Talaxian, & Ferasan since they're Klingon too but paywalled.

    The two they specifically stated for exclusion were the Dominion & Romulan faction-aligned so they won't be.
