    I am guessing your new here.
    Those specific ships will be on display wrapped around Earth Spacedock and Deep Space 9 exteriors, and we can fly to each one to hear a small soundbite from each captain to celebrate Star Trek Day, which will in turn award an accolade for those who have not done it previously.
    You may find that they will (dont quote me on this) release the pack again for a short period during this time, most likely will be announced the day before the promotion for star trek day happens though.
    So they have every right to display the hero ships in their blog if they choose to..

    This is a pre-order acc, support had to reset my forum acc 5 days ago.
    I know exactly what this event entails, it's not the first time.
    I also know they have every right to use their own property as they see fit, however, since it was used to celebrate a very specific STO event - its 10th anniversary - I find it misleading. I highly doubt we're going to see that package in the C-Store anytime soon, that's why I got excited before I thoroughly read the post.

    Wha? It makes sense if they advertise the ships to put the Anniversary pack on sale again. But even if they don’t, it’ll be back on sale soon. They offer it once every few months.

    Always love Star Trek Day here - I appreciate how hard the makers of this game work to keep it infused with the Great Bird's vision. May it one day be so!

    The museum is interesting, but where are the Enterprise B and C. Did they not play important parts in federation history as well?
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Federation History yes, Star Trek History? not really.

    This is more focused on ships important to the franchise, hence why Ceritos is up this year. as well as Stargazer (nice chance to see the new model). Although La Serenna isn't which I feel is a bit of a miss.

    BTW devs, you need to update the voyager and SNW conny fluff. voyager says Janeway was the only female captain but Burnham is now captain. also SNW has launched so it's not an "upcoming" series

    Burnham didn't become captain until after the jump to the future, right? So, according to the in-game timeline, that hasn't happened yet.

    The 10 ships at ESD/DS9 wasn't used to promote the 10th anniversary at all given that it first appeared in the game in September 2020.

    that'd be fine if it was in the "in character" notes, but it was in the out of character notes about the series.

    Hell, as far as the 25th century knows, the Discovery under Capt. Saru was lost with all hands in a tragic DASH Drive accident.

    Just went to the museum. Voyager says Janeway was the first female captain on Star Trek. Maybe that's an update already? Dunno.

    They probably should have worded it differently; Voyager was the first series to feature a female captain for the hero ship, not the first female captain shown in Star Trek. TNG had Rachel Garrett as captain of Enterprise-C and a number of others captaining other ships.

    Later series have female captains in recurring roles like Erika Hernandez in ENT, Phillipa Georgio in DSC, and many others.

    And the first female Captain on the screen in Star Trek was the female Captain of the USS Saratoga in the opening scene of STIV: The Voyage Home.

    An odd thing I noticed in the museum this year is that none of the sound clips play except the two new ones, for the new Stargazer and the Cerritos.

    Yeah, the recent update that added those audio clips ended up dropping the others. It's a known issue.
