What im curious about is if Romulans will get their own Omega gear and costumes/styled weapons...I don't want to have to use the Fed/KDF Omega rep gear.
I won't touch any Fed or Klingon ships as a Romulan character, whats the point...been there done that, why would I ever jump into another Federation ship.
I plan to play a Rommy through lvl 10, just to enjoy the new content. As the "choice" comes at lvl 10, I'll assume all Rommy content is the same for all players up till the choice, hence no need to play those levels twice.
I'm Fed ... I'll stay Fed thank you. Not because Fed is better than KDF or vice versa or any other competitive reason. Simply because there's no way in he[[ I'm repeating all my accolades, CXP and reputations AGAIN.
Nope ... not doin' it ... not that interested.
And really ... what's to stop me from just making my UI green for awhile and feeling a little Rommy. Nuttin'
Been waiting since Game Launch -to Play Romulan and pilot a D'Deridex Warbird thats all I want -Yes at lvl 10 I have to choose and it will be KDF but belive me I will be focusing on pure Romulan as much as possible.
My new main will be either a Romulan or reman female allied to the KDF. They will most likely be a Tactical captain but flying a tac/sci hybrid warbird.
SURE! I'll ditch my Fed that I have worked on for a whole year and all the ships I have! Why not?! :eek:

Well my Romulan will become my main and receive priority on having all dil, ec, and zen focused on him, but my fed and kdf characters will still see action, maybe only enough to cap their dil refinement on a few of them and a few marauding missions before switching back to playing my romulan.
no ,coz it is not possible,I am huge romulan fan but I ll pass it,cryptic/PW scruwed me hardly:mad:
I am not going to support that TRIBBLE
R.I.P Romulan Star Empire
LoR should to be about rebuilding Romulan Star Empire,liberating Donatra from borg collective ,confronting Sela & madness of Tal Shiar,claiming Vulcan as new romulan homeworld...
Without a doubt I'll go as pure Romulan as possible. I'll keep my KDF and Fed for the occasional change of pace, but I'm chomping at the bit to go Romulan.
How can anyone go 100% Rommie when the game forces Rommies to either become Feddie lapdogs or Klingon pahtaks. Until Rommies are a completely independent faction no one can go pure Rommie.
As Roms can make their own Fleets, never need to team with a Freddy or Klink, and aren't required to do any missions with or for their allies I'm not exactly sure how they're lapdogs or pahtaks.
At best they're just sucking resources out of their "allies" so they can get stronger and eventually conquer them when they least expect it.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.
I presently play KDF, come the 14th I will be going Romulan and deleting all my other toon's.
As the expansion comes May 21st, I'm guessing you're going to spend a week meditating on the coming Romulan storm?

I'm going to go as close to pure Romulan that I can get. Sure, I'll need to join a fleet (probably FED), but I wont be buying no FED weapons or other items. I'll be sticking it out in my Warbird.
As for which of my toons will likely become my main, I don't know. It wont be a Klingon, just because. I'd like it to be Romulan, but I don't think it I'll ever be able to do that knowing that it isn't a true faction. Until such a time that it is, my FED will likely remain my main.

You can always just start a new Romulan Fleet with other Roms of the same bent: liking KDF or liking Feds.

Except it'll still be a Federation or Klingon Starbase. Such would require another five tiers of progression before I can purchase a Fleet Warbird. Might as well stick it out in a fleet I'm already in, and one that I've invested a lot in too.

And that is one of the main reasons they choose to go the way they did. Cryptic knows the fans have 9 months invested into their current Fleet systems. They also know 99% of the Rom players will be coming from existing Fed and KDF players. Allowing the Roms to help finish existing Fleets is a win-win - and gives Cryptic time to work on Rom Fleet systems.

As highlighted, that will never happen. Let us not kid ourselves. We will never truly get a Romulan Fleet System, I don't see how it could ever work, especially once they've gone down this chosen path of theirs.
As for why they did this. They didn't need to give Romulan players a Starbase at all. They could have worked on an enhanced Embassy with Ship Purchasing Features. At least that way, it would have kept us from this stupid alliance and allowing us to use FED/KDF ships.
...because a Reman, serving the Klingon Empire, flying around in a Gorn Cruiser makes perfect sense. :rolleyes:

Yes: because I like romulans and their ships, also... I love Birds! so bird-theme ships! warbirds!
No: Because I going the same router as FED/KDF as chosen faction, basically, you're playing one character of the two existent faction.
But my main will be Romulan of each faction, BTW.

My main will switch from Federation to Romulan, but I will still be keeping my Federation and Klingon as alts.
I will be going full romulan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
system Lord Baal is dead
Despite my reservations about piloting any Warbird with a RRW prefix, I too am going career Romulan. It was my intention at STO launch.
Now, if I could make the ships look more Romulan when playing my Romulan, I'd do that.
I'm leaning towards a KDF Reman and a Romulan hybrid for the Federation side. Maybe a pure Romulan Fed-side as well.
but ill not abandon my KDF PVP main, love the B'Rel too much! (as it is Romulan design anyway)
my Romulan toons will join the KDF and work on our SB which we started 10 days ago
my 3 FED toons will stay as a remnant, not to be logged on apart from trading for alien artifacts.
I am not going to support that TRIBBLE

Beyond that I don't care about being "pure" why deny myself the other benefits if they're there?
Excuse me. The 21st. LoL

Feds are boring and Klingons are the step-child on STO.
