Lockbox suggestion

shadokittyshadokitty Member Posts: 131 Arc User
I don't know how many people really use lockboxes, but a friend suggested to me that Romulan and Reman Warbirds be included in the next lockbox. He asked me to start a thread about it on the forums, and for people to post if they are in favor of the idea.

    Hirogen seems like a better choice, in my opinion. Relevant to the current plot point of New Romulus, a 'neutral' faction that has both notable ships and equipment, doesn't interfere with the possibility of a 'romulan mini faction', and hasn't been expanded too much upon ingame (yet already has a fair number of ingame assets and appearances already).


    Breen are another possibility, I could see their cryo-tech fitting a 'winter' theme, but they really do not seem all that relevant to anything going on in the game right now.

    Romulan ships appear to be the obvious choice looking at history. But I will only fly a Romulan ship when there is a Romulan Facton. :cool:

    Won't happen unless they decide once and for all Romulans won't be a faction.
    Can't have a honest conversation because of a white knight with power

    I'm neutral on the subject. It's certainly something Cryptic might do though.

    I suggested this to shadokitty, i'm their friend. I wanted ot expand on the idea for such as that.

    Romulan Warbird an Reman Warbird would be the two ships from the new lockbox with posisbly as above mentioned, a Hirogen as a blue item drop like the mirror universe ships. Though I think the Romulan warbird would be the lobi crystal shop ship while the Reman would be the random drop.

    Both warbirds would have 3-5 enigeering consoles. The romulan though would have like 4 science and 2 tactical. The reman would have 4 tactical and 2 science. Bridge officers would work the same. THe possible Hirogen could also have like an even 3 consoles each and universal officers to allow it used in any purpose.

    Along with these ships what works well for drops in the lockbox, would be Reman and Romulan Duty Officer packs, Plasma Disruptor Weapons for ground and ships, items would drop tht would boost reputation gains for new romulus and omega, and of course lobi crystals.

    Also for purchase in the Lobi Crystal shop would be a Romulan shuttle that cna cloack like the one that was in the DS9 Episode where Garek tried to help sisko with convincing the romulans that the dominion would betray them with the fake hologram recording. The romulans used a shuttle craft which could cloak. That could be available for 300 lobi crystals.

    As for the Breen suggestion, I think that would be a cool christmas present item for a special christmas event/mission.

    I have confirmed reports that the winter event ship will be a Warp 10 Santa's Sleigh.

    Mars shipyard's Starfleet Corp of Engineers have leaked this information to Section 31 and Drake has reported to me via whatsapp that Santa Claus is currently being incarcerated at Mars and slowly interrogated for his Sleigh's specifications, including a special console: Universal Console - Give Purple Mk12 Console (2d cooldown).

    Rumors also abound that the Borg has assimilated Santa's South Pole hideout and that we will have an outbreak of assimilated elves running amok on Earth as soon as end of this week.

    MACO Commander on Earth has issued a general warning to the population about assimilated elves. While many species have begun their evacuations, Vulcan ambassador has vehemently rejected that idea and repeated continuously: "Our science directorate has determined that Santa Claus doesn't exist."

    What about a Keldon Class? It was used by the Obsidian Order, and they allied with the Tal Shiar. Maybe the Tal Shiar kept some Keldon Cruisers around and the now-free Romulans are giving them away to the Federation and Imperial Empire? I know it might debunk the Galor, but short of a Romulan/Reman ship, I don't see many other options that'll slot in with Season 7.

    That is, unless they don't connect the next lock box with Season 7, and instead connect it with Christmas, in which case (as mentioned above) a Breen Cruiser would be suitable, or failing that, an Imperial Star Destroyer. :rolleyes:

    The Keldon is a possibility now that you mention it. They could also go with the Jem'Hadar Battleship if they wanted to keep the Jem'Hadar theme going another year.

    yeah, you fig that any ship already doine could be boxed lickey split

    so i fig they can stretch it out

    but i swear i saw some post about andrion stuff aqbout like 6 months ago or somethng

    they went hog wild with the Tholian stuff and i am thinkiong, well, its was a pretty good episode, and doiese have a good graphic,

    but i mean they aren;t like the andorians or other raqces in the series

    so they selected kinda a minor player, but yeah, romulan, that breen thing that cardassian Heldeki , the more the merrier

    what would be cool is if in like pvp yoiu could have a fleet or maruders taking on fleet of whatevers or whatever

    thnaks for the post

    The only way I see them doing this is if they tie it to a playable Romulan in a lockbox.

    So, for example, they have a lockbox reward that, once activated, unlocks playable Romulans on your account and the playable Romulan you roll gets access to Romulan ships as a species perk.
