Science pvp at its best-http://www.youtube.com/user/matteo716Frankly, I think the only sound advice that one can give new players at this time is to stay away from PVP in STO.
Do you even Science Bro?

What does the tourny have to do with this themed one off ever I'm hosting?
I would... Except the event is this Sunday. So maybe next dominion wars.

Correct, no sets at all.

Sorry, anything organized in the fashion you are trying to do I usually think of as a Tournament.
Also, something about the ships allowed feels.. Off to me.

Ah well I'm just trying to do a monthly themed event. Last month was the original Star Trek and it was a blast.
Sadly the dominion is limited to their ships and in pretty sure I covered all the active combat type of ships during the dominion war for the Feds and Klingons.
If you don't like this layout there's always next months "TNG wars" theme
Do you even Science Bro?
Actually, it's not the Dominion side that feels off, but the entire Fed side.
Akira can't use Torpedo Console or Pets.
MVAM is even allowed, and can't use MVAM console? (Might be a little Care bear of me, but wasn't the MVAM not even available during the dominion War and it didn't even show up till LATE in Voyager?)
And the B-rel R? Uhh... shouldn't it be restricted to the Hegh'ta?
Not to mention the Steamrunner...?
Defiant..can't cloak? Derp?
I just don't recall any of those ships really being Valid during that time frame. But then again I am no where near an aficionado of all things Trek, or even anything near close to knowledgeable when it comes to all the ships that were available in the Dominion War Era of Trek. /nerdmoment

Dunno about Klinks, but I thought they were flying only standard BoPs (don't know what class is their equivalent in STO), Vor'chas and D7/K'T'Ingas. There was only one Negh'Var: the flagship of Empire so it should be banned too.
As for the event - sadly it's the evening sunday so a nope for me.
we could have a b'rel simulating the mine layer around the wormhole (and also record the thing) kind of as an evironemental hazard.
Nebula should ok, no??
Happy Snix day -cause everyday is snix day from now on

The defiant class was active during the war, the use valiant comes to mind.
The defiant class by default does not have a cloaking device in Star Trek only the use defiant and S?o Paulo does.
The steam runner was introduced the same time as the Norway and Akira were (first contact) and used through out the dominion war.
The nebula is sadly classed as a science ship so no science ships for the dominion war.
Sadly, the Brel refit is the only bird of prey from that era and since the only Brel you can get now is the retrofit and fleet retrofit... It'll have to do.
I'm making due with the little ship selection there is
And again if you don't agree with my decision then there's always TNG wars next month
Do you even Science Bro?
But why? Nebula, Intrepid and the Nova were all active during the war.

I'm excited to pew with a bunch of my favorite people in a low stakes environment. This reminds me of that thing I used to have in video games before I became a meta-gaming min/maxxer... what was it called... oh yeah, "fun!"
CommanderDonatra@Capt.Sisko: ahhh is it supposed to do that?
Norvo Tigan@dontdrunkimshoot: hell ya, maybe
My guess is because there is no sci ship that is klingon, cardassian or jem'hadar.
Veranus is not true to canon... (Never thought I would ever say that on the PvP forums.)

Mostly correct!
I also like to think the federation wouldn't send science vessels to the active front line of combat.
Maybe when I have my "VOYAGER wars" well see those pesky science ships
Do you even Science Bro?
That episode also featured a Nebula class, so they were still in operation. And the Intrepid Bellaraphon was in use during the latter stages of the war.
This sounds fun. I'd love to take part in my breen ship, but the time is way wrong for me. I'm GMT. But have fun everyone.
A Romulan Strike Team, Missing Farmers and an ancient base on a Klingon Border world. But what connects them? Find out in my First Foundary mission: 'The Jeroan Farmer Escapade'
Are we speaking about these nebulas with torpedo mission pods ? Nebulas did actively participate in dominion war and are clearly visible in DS9 series during several battles. /fanboyism off.
The only possibly science heavy ship we can use here is Klingon. The B'rel.
Hmmm, so that's why they sent all those awesome Mirandas instead?

Well, the Dominion War was all or nothing. They threw EVERYTHING they had at the war effort, even their old ships the pulled out of the closet. They were breaking the prime directive out of desperation, trying to conscript underdeveloped civilizations as meat shields and servicemen to replace the massive losses they were taking. I imagine if they had pure science vessels which were mostly used for peace but had defensive systems, they'd have thrown them at the brick wall to try to break it.
Fanfiction! ZOMG! Read it now!

That's not entirely true. STO classifies them as purely science vessels, but from the source material that's not accurate at all. The Intrepid is a long range scout vessel designed to also be usable as a fast recon ship. The Nebula is described as being a multi-role ship capable of performing all sorts of missions (point of interest, it's a Nebula that exposed Romulan involvement in the Romulan civil war not by science, but by shooting things). The closest of the three to a "pure science" ship was the Nova, which was designed as a planetary scout ship, but still carried a pretty hefty tactical loadout for a ship it's size.
That's the reason no nebulas or other science ships. Both sides have equal access to a lt cmdr science slot.
As I've said, either take part in one of the listed ships or wait for a themed event that has your favorite ship listed
