Why not add the VULCAN subspecies in the LEGACY OF ROMULUS! The reunification VULCAN/ROMULAN process may have been accomplished! :o

    Vulcans are already selectable as a federation species and always have been federation. I would rather see more unique species added to the Romulan faction than anything else.
    It is through repetition that we learn our weakness.
    A master with a stone is better than a novice with a sword.
    Has damage got out of control?
    This is the last thing I will post.

    No all the romulans of the republic Think in the Reunification as a "viable" option to live, is just rejecting all your emotion and follow logic, is teaching romulans to be more vulcans, many prefer just chosing the republic for a better life for themselves, others choose that side for revenge.

    My Romulans Characters are in the republic for revenge, no for reunification.
    Vulcans as playable characters in the republic is impossible, the storyline/intro/tutorial is about
    an Invasion in your home colony by the Elachi and the Tal'Shiar, they're abducting your people, friends and family for Indoctrination (brainwashing) or just enslavement.[SPOLER/END]

    the response can be questionable it cannot say, "Is Ilogical to predict the next Tal'shiar attack but is logical to say that we are joining the republic because logic dictated that" :/

    No, no, no. We already have a Vulcan loving traitor in charge, we don't need any of those "emotionless" annoyances running around playing with our toys.

    The problem with Vulcans being a part of the Romulans with the way things are set up is.. Vulcans fighting side-by-side with Klingons. I really don't know how I feel D'Kyrs in orbit over Qo'nos or a Vulcan commanding a bird of prey for the glory of the empire.

    Making things in caps won't make it more likely to happen. ;)
    Roms more likely to join Fed than Vulcans join RomRep.

    A few Vulcan NPC's on New Romulus maybe, but remember the Vulcans (on the whole) still distrust Romulans, no matter whether they be peaceful or not.

    The Vulcan High Command did nothing to help Romulus, but Romulus never asked for help. Spock and Picard asked for help - it's not the same thing. Spock did help, so clearly some Vulcans have no issues with Romulans and are more then willing to help. Spock would not be the only Vulcan in the galaxy to see the logic of Reunification with the new Romulan Republic.

    Anyway, if you ally with the Federation I believe you can use some Federation species as Boffs just as you can Doffs. You would simply need to go to the Exchange and purchase them.
    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.

    Of course it matters who asks. The Federation can't charge into the RSE without permission from the Romulan government any more then the US can charge into North Korea to help its citizens without permission from the Korean government.That's an act of war to invade another country. :)

    Spock asked the High Command for help, they said no. Spock asked the Federation for help, they said no. One government can't invade another, even if the intentions are "good." Spock did it anyway - and he somehow managed to get a Vulcan ship and Red Matter, so clearly someone either on Vulcan or in the Federation was willing to help. Thus not all Vulcans are opposed to the idea of helping Romulans.

    Spock and Picard went to Geordi, who designed and built the Jellyfish and they all went behind the Feds and Vulcans backs to try and help the Romulans.

    I would rather see a created storyline about the Garidians (Memory Beta - from the video game TNG : A Final Unity)... According to Memory beta as part of the game they were considered allies of the RSE at least up to the point that in the game they are seen flying in D'deridex warbirds.

    Eventhough it is not considered canon... In this game NOTHING is canon. :)

    If all the people remember the movies & series, Vulcans are able to reject the principle of the LOGIC like SYBOK in the FINAL FRONTIER movie

    You do realize that his entire game is inspired by JJ trek. If JJ hadn't blown up the Hobus star the game would be much different then it is now.

    I wouldn't mind seeing V'tosh ka'tur characters, but on the other hand I get the feeling that would be yet doable under "alien-gen hybrid".
    Somebody getting uppity about canon? No problem! Just take a deep breath, and repeat after me:

    Spock's Brain.

    Judging from a certain Vulcan admiral's view, some Vulcans are still distrustful of them.

    Just create a Romulan or (if possible) a Vulcan-looking Alien character and play "pretend-Vulcan", just as people have done it with Alien-Cardies, Alien-Romulans or any Fed race on KDF side...

    You know if you had one shred of maturity, maybe people wouldn't point out how contradictory you are.

    Cryptic follows JJ Abrams' story to an extent. Deal with it.

    Reunificationist Vulcans might work. We've already got Klingons in Starfleet going into battle against Klingons in the KDF (but then, Klingons in the KDF go into battle against Klingons in the KDF, so that's maybe not a very big leap for them) but yeah... there's bound to be some wide-eyed idealists, mixed in with some logic rejecting Vulcans, and both might have reason to ally with the KDF. The mindrapey Vulcans cause they've got anger issues, the idealists cause, you know, today Vulcan and (New) Romulus, tomorrow the Federation and the Klingons, and the day after the El-Aurians and the Borg! (I have it on good authority the Borg are way into unificationism.)

    I can see them adding them. Probably as a C-store unlock. Though really the only difference with an alien gen Vulcan would be the absense of a nerve pinch in the alien.

    I still think it would have made more sense if:

    Completing T5 Romulan rep on a Klingon allowed a half-Klingon, half-Romulan unlock for the Romulan faction.

    Completing T5 Romulan rep on a Federation allowed a Reunificationist Vulcan unlock for the Romulan faction.

    Completing T5 Romulan rep on a Romulan allowed a Reman unlock for the Romulan faction.

    Completing all three allowed Reman and Romulan unlocks for Federation and Klingon play in Fed/Klingon uniforms, with Fed/Klingon ships.

    I haven't been on Tribble but, as I said above, I think a Fed-allied Rom can simply go to the Exchange and buy a Vulcan Boff. You don't need any permission.
