Judging from appearances - it will likely have a scorpion hanger.
PaxOttomana: gawd mirror event is like fighting a tsi premade, they keep comin and comin!
For example Empress Sela's Scimitar isn't much larger than the Ha?feh Assault Warbird or the Mogai.
^^^This. Or at the very least a standalone 2500 Zen ship.

I don't think Cryptic's afraid of allowing people to have a thalaron burst power because it's too powerful for players (although it is a consideration). I think the larger issue is the fact that thalaron radiation is widely viewed as a terrible thing, and people that use it are among the worst offenders of inter-planetary laws and decency.
Keep calm, and continue firing photon torpedoes.

I would buy it for 2500 Zen.
That may be true, but the KDF certainly would certainly allow their Romulan allies Thalaron weaponry, as long as they shared. The issue is, however, the Tal Shiar certainly wouldn't hesitate to use Thalaron weaponry (obviously). The Republic, those wimps we're stuck following, on the other hand? I seriously doubt it. Far too cuddly and squishy to manufacture and use weapons of mass destruction.
In regards to the Scimitar, I couldn't care less. That ship was so disgustingly plot-overpowered it made me sick. Perfect cloak, 52 disruptors, 27 torpedo launchers, and shielding that took everything a Sovereign and two Valdores could throw at it with only 30% shield loss? Oh, and let us not forget it could fire all weapons while cloaked, keep its shields at full-strength while cloaked, and travel at warp velocities high enough to run-down the Enterprise while cloaked.
I'm not saying Cryptic shouldn't add it in as playable, but personally, I'll stick with my Ha'Nom.
Some ships are still incoming and need more development time. The Scimitar is one of those. It's coming. So no worries.
Think about it, why throw it away now when you already have excitement at (possibly) an all-time high. All this new content, a bunch of new toys to play with. There's no need at all for an extra bit of oomph right now.
When it cools... roll out the Scimitar, and you get some of that heat back into the fire.

yeah 13 turn rate.
like a fed science vessel.
have you ever watched star trek nemesis ?
the scimitar flew around the enterprise like a bird of prey *_*
I gave it a science vessle like configuration:
1.3 shield modifier (in the movie it has 2 shields)
30.000 Hull (it withstood the enterprise ramming action, its hull should be very strong)
13 turn rate (it was very nimble in the movie)
5-1 weapons (it was heavily armed)
0.20 impulse modifier
I think i made it quite similar to the one appeared in the movie.

I have never trusted humans, and I never will
Keep calm, and continue firing photon torpedoes.
I've always seen the Scimitar as a tier above Odyssey and Bortasqu', similar to the Typhoon or Jupiter.
Plus keeping the Typhoon and Jupiter part of the conversation is always good.
Yes... Yes it is
Not sure that that turn rate will accomplish anything.
i need:
1 - cmd tac and lt.cmd tac
2 - at least 12 turn rate
3 - at least 4 fore weapons
then they can make it as they wish ...
If Cryptic want to make money they will need to make the Scimitar more than just another version of the existing Tier V Romulan Ships.
And to do that it will need to be a heavy-focused science vessel or escort.
Romulan ships offer some of the slowest + slow turning ships in the game, so yeah - I do not support a request for another brick. I have no intention or inclination at rp'ing Shinzon in exploration missions.
Could you imagine how many people would be angry!
Doubt that they would ever make a vet ship one of the cannon ships. Thats probably why the Fed and KDF ones are kitbashed.
The Scimitar is one of the archetype Romulan ships. Its like locking the Defiant or another popular Fed ship behind a huge pay wall.
Too strong/not unique enough (IMO).
Should be 2 SCI slots.
Should be 3 base turn rate (make it the toughest/slowest ship in the game by far).
Should be 5 fore 2 aft weapons.
I think these changes would make it play significantly different from any other ship
why you want another flying brick ?
1 - it would never match to the one appeared in the movie.
2 - romulans already have enougt of these ships.
in the movie the scimitar was very nimble, and its weapons configuration can be compared to this:
5-1 or 5-2
(it only used a turret as aft weapon in the movie)
i'd say 5-1 to not make it too OP.
it got 2 shields, so i'd say to give it 1.3 shield mod.
i'd say 27K-30K hull to not make it too OP.
it was very fast and nimble:
12 turn rate
0.20 impulse mod
due to its heavy weaponry, i'd say at least 4 tac slot and at least 1 cmd tac and 1 lt.cmd tac.
in the movie, the scimitar appeared as the most powerful ship ever for weapons and shields, and it was also very nimble.
Also, it never used scorpion fighters, so i think we can say it had a sort of shuttle bay, like the enterprise ones, but in STO the Galaxy-Class doesn't have hangar bays.
(no fed cruiser have them)
also, i really don't like cruiser ships, i tried the D'Deridex and i hated it.
And that's why it won't appear in-game the way people are fantasizing. It cannot be the most powerful ship. Something has to give.
Keep calm, and continue firing photon torpedoes.
