Now that dstahl have posted info about the KDF ships which at the moment look pretty good at the moment with there abilties though the BoP refit might need double checking for overpowerness with the abilities to use all Boff while cloak, SNB would simply shut the Nebula's abilties off, as well capping PvP in while cloaked.
Since you did mentioned the Vulcan ships are pretty much running about. What info can you give us about the Vulcan ship? Simply putting are these Vulcan ships going to vanilla ships, meaning just standard Boff setting with no innate abilties and the class these are going to be in.
Any info would be appreciated dstahl.
Thanks.
PS. As a Federation Ambassdor, would it be possible to ask for a Vulcan ship to command?
I'm guessing the Vulcan ship will be a Science Vessel. We don't know what Tier yet. 3/5 seems to be Cryptic's sweet-spot, though. I personally hope it goes T2 with a T4 refit.

Klingon Empire B'rel Bird-of-Prey Retrofit
Birds-of-Prey are the workhorses of the Empire, filling roles as scout ships, raiders or combat vessels. This retrofit of the famed B'rel Bird-of-Prey combines the small size and maneuverability of the B'rel with the most advanced weaponry available to the Empire. The B'rel Bird-of-Prey Retrofit has six weapon slots (4 fore, 2 aft), seats for four Bridge Officers (2 Lieutenant Universal, 1 Lieutenant Commander Universal and 1 Commander Universal) and space for eight console modifications (3 Tactical, 3 Engineering, 2 Science). It carries 30 crew and has an Enhanced Battle Cloak that will allow the ship to fire mines and torpedo weapons and use most Bridge Officer and Captain abilities while cloaked.
It doesn't say ALL BOff powers while cloaked so lets please keep the over-reacting for after they are released on Tribble for testing.

Well...dstahl wasn't too sure on the class. The Vulcan ship would be a T5 level, though what other tier is unknown. BTW, technically the ship is not quite a refit since it is different from the original D'Kyr-class ship, probably same class which was a combat cruiser. The from nose has a deflector of some kind, there is a second ring inside the main ship nacelle (outer ring).
So hopefully, dstahl can give us a nibble on what the Vulcan ship can do and what areas best suited for Federation fleet.

Lol, not over-reaching, just stating a concern nothing more as they are legimate. *shrugs* Anyhow, klingons are finally getting stuff as they should have don't you agree.

Later.
I do agree and was not trying to sound "mean", my apoligies if it came across so.
Just don't want to have the forums explode into hysteria over the new ships ideas before they even get tested and since several players are already posting " It can do everything while cloaked", we as a community are heading towards another forum meltdown.

This is actually a good idea.
I would like to be able to use the Vulcan/Andorian ships into endgame without seriously hampered performance, but I can see how people would have a problem with them being on par with the newest and most advanced federation ships. It seems like a decent compromise to me. :cool:

Lol, no problem about it....just expressing concern about abilites that can be used while cloaked includes captain abilties.
Yeah too many meltdown have happened such as the NX thread. Think the announcement thread about the new ships already starting that road. Lol:cool:
Either way....just want to know what info is there for the Vulcan ship since the devs came out with the info for the new klingy ships.

Lol....FvF....should setup the Enterprise Series tournament by the devs.
