Sugestion-opening up Galaxy Class Skins

i was would love to see the full range of skin's for the Galaxy Class [capt. and VA] open for use at VA level.

i know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but it would make the Gal the most skinned ship in the game and the most physically different, one Gal to the next.

thematically it would also be appropriate as the Gal in the series is seen as the backbone of the federation fleet [as of the Dominion war].



well hope you guys like my idea.

    When you say "Full range of skins"... What exactly do you mean?

    If you have the venture, and the Galaxy Retrofit, you have access to all the skins currently in game, except for the Dreadnaught refit.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...

    He may be referring to the Galaxy-X not having access to all the Galaxy skins (Envoy, Celestial, so on.)

    The Retrofit (the VA Galaxy) and the Dreadnought can't use the Celestial and Envoy skins from the Captain-level Galaxy, and the Dreadnought can't use the Retrofit's Monarch skin.

    That said, I strongly prefer the ones currently available at VA anyway, so personally I'd rather see myriad Ventures and Galaxies with a handful of Monarchs than Envoy/Celestial/Galaxy kitbashes that in my opinion look terrible. (Though Sovereign kitbashes that aren't simple nacelle replaces usually look bad to me, too... the pieces fit beautifully together in their own classes, but not at all when mixed)

    yes, i was speaking of the Envoy and Celestial classes primarily for use on the VA level Galaxy.

    during the beta test for the Odyssey class, the different Gal. skins were opened up and used as a "stand-in" for the Odyssey. though at Capt. level, the mix and match of the three skins was less then ideal, with the addition of the 2 VA level skins [Venture and Monarch] you could achieve some really stunning combinations.

    but you do bring up and interesting point. opening them up to the Dreadnought would be interesting as well.
