Fleet Assault Cruiser

Where is it Cryptic?

I want my upgraded Regent as well as the Imperial skin so I can have a psuedo-Typhoon by kitbashing the other Assault Cruiser skins together.

    You're not the only one waiting for it. There WAS one on Tribble once, meaning that its so close...

    Yet, it is also far, far away, as I suspect Cryptic won't release it until the sales of the Regent class have essentially stopped. They don't want to compete with themselves.

    I believe the Regent would sell alot better if the fleet version was available.

    I mean, Pay $20 in fleet Modules for 1.
    or pay $25 and get the torp+ fleet version?

    I myself held off as long as I could, and Finally broke down and bought it last week.
    What held me back was wanting the fleet's extra console and skin. IMO theyre hurting there own sales by NOT having a fleet version out.

    With all the 10 Console ships around, who wants a 9 Console? lol

    Yeah, seriously. I'd drop five bucks in Cryptic's wallet for a Fleet Module right NAOW if they were to release it.

    Yes I would want the fleet version regent style with the imperial skin! Or just bring back the Imperial skin back to the Z store!

    I hope they give us the choice to choose where we want to put 10th console, i was hoping that the wide angle q-torpedo was a built in to the ship which will free up a weapons slot so i can build my ship like the Enterprise E :D O well.

    No, that's silly, because you'd have to buy the Regent in order to get the fleet version anyway, otherwise you pay through the nose for it.

    As it stands, I am on the fence about the Regent because I have NO IDEA what I can upgrade it into, and don't want to commit to a purchase until I'm sure that the upgrade goes in a direction that I want.

    Because the version that was apparently seen on Tribble...well, it didn't go in the direction I wanted it to go.

    Since the Fleet Galaxy is an extreme Engineering Cruiser and it got +1 Engineering, I'm guessing the Fleet Regent will get +1 Tactical since it's currently the Fed Cruiser with the heaviest Tactical lean to it, which would be fine with me.

    Well, the Fleet Regent's original Tribble specs before it was apparently shouted down for some reason, gave it 4 tactical consoles and a a BOff shift, losing Lt Eng in favor of Lt Tac.

    In my opinion, that BOff shift is probably too much, turning it into less of a battlecruiser and more of a clumsy escort. It certainly makes me a bit iffy about it.

    meh, basically any oddy can have that boff layout. Works very, very well actually for tanking stfs and even pvp in a certain lineup. Of course the ship is only 50% of the performance...the captain and the boffs beeing the other half.

    I wonder what tier starbase one would need to have to acquire the ship?
  • baelogventurebaelogventure Member Posts: 1,002 Arc User

    Probably a Tier 5, seeing as how the Fleet HEC is Tier 5

    the vorcha is T2 and essentially the same cruiser boff layout, but probably T5...so i would have to wait another 4 to 5 month, hopefully!
