Look at these stats...I mean seriously!

Risian Corvette
Rank: Subadmiral I/Rear Admiral, Lower Half/Brigadier General
Type: Corvette
Hull: Unknown
Standard Shields: Unknown
Shield Modifier: Unknown
Weapons
Fore: Unknown
Aft: Unknown
Crew: Unknown
BOFF Layout: Unknown
Device Slots: Unknown
Consoles
Tac: Unknown
Eng: Unknown
Sci: Unknown
Turn Rate: Unknown
Impulse Modifier: Unknown
Inertia: Unknown
Bonus Power: Unknown
Abilities: Unknown

How could you say that's not horribly OP and would not completely unbalance PvP?

I wonder if it will have racing stripes...

...the Featured Series Rerun ends on June 21st - the first day of Summer. Tada, the Summer Event!

edit: Hrmmm, how about some rampant speculation?

edit2: Hrmmm, Risa is a Federation Member Planet...when I went to Risa on Tribble, I did so on a Fed (naturally, eh?)...but has anybody gone there as a KDF? Is it still the Risian Corvette? I think I'll go look when it's back up.

    I completely agree.

    And who cares about racing stripes? There are more important questions, like does a ship from risa offer relaxing holodeck programmes?

    My stomach is clear and my mind is full of bacon!

    More importantly, does it supply a full skimpily clad female crew?

    Does it come in a convertible? Sometimes while flying through the space forest, I wonder what it would be like to enjoy the solar wind blowing through my hair...

    Is this ship operated by section 31? There is a lot of unknown info there!

    Every time there's a new ship mentioned or hinted at, there tends to be the overwhelming discussion about how it is overpowered. I just wanted to get a head start on it. :)

    Though, considering this is a Summer Event ship - one might speculate that it is going to be on par with the Winter Event ship.

    So we have the Breen Chel Grett Warship...

    Rank: Subadmiral I/Rear Admiral, Lower Half/Brigadier General
    Type: Destroyer
    Hull: 36,000
    Shield Modifier: 1.0
    Weapons
    Fore: 4
    Aft: 4
    Crew: 650
    BOFF Layout:
    X, X, X, X
    X, X

    X, X
    X, X, X
    X
    Device Slots: 3
    Consoles
    Tac: 4
    Eng: 3
    Sci: 3
    Turn Rate: 13
    Impulse Modifier: 0.18
    Inertia: 50
    Bonus Power: +10 Wep, +5 Eng
    Abilities: [Console - Universal - Breen Energy Dissipator]

    So then, what might one expect for the Risian Corvette, eh? I mean, where the heck did that ship come from, eh? Has anybody seen anything about any sort of Risian ships out there? And again, as a Federation Member Planet...is it the same ship for the KDF and if so...how?

    Oh well, yes...I was bored from the grind. :)

    I don't see any problem with the KDF capturing and using a "unique" Fed ship.

    As a Fed, you capture a B'rel...but return it.
    As a KDF, you capture a Danube...but return it.
    Heck, what happened to the S'golth the Romulans capture?

    As for capturing it, it really isn't a case of capturing it. Both Feds and KDF will be on Risa doing the events. It is a reward.

    It's a "timeline" issue...how are the KDF on Risa? How did they get there? Sure, with Marauding/RP...KDF can fly around without issue. But if they're on Risa...invited...then why do they need RP? Why would RP be needed for anybody else to get there? Will every KDF be given RP during the event? Will there be a transwarp to Risa orbit available for KDF but they won't be able to hit up Sirius without RP?

    Just one of those pesky things...lol, I do like what somebody said about the KDF should get to enjoy the beaches on Rura Penthe instead...ahem, I laughed - I didn't want to, but I did. :)

    Tried to get there with a K-Rom and couldn't...need Marauder. So I copied a guy with Marauder over to Tribble. I go to Risa and get...Beam to Surface. Not Beam to Event.

    So I flip over to the F-Rom and...she's still on Event Risa. Beam up to orbit and...Beam to Event is gone.

    Curious, eh?

    Something we weren't supposed to see...

    Probably going to do this on or around the 21st, along with the new holding and maybe the Romulan Dreadnaught.

    As to the Corvette, am I the only one hoping its going to be a Tuffli like ship? I have enough combat ships, something different would be nice. Besides, its from Risa, what about Risa says combat?

    A ship like the Tuffli with all the transwarps = I'll grind it on all my toons for doffing purposes.

    Can the Cryptic team, at the very minimum, nerf the buff after decloaking? I'm tired of getting Alpha striked with Inflatable Beach balls from the Risian Corvette!

    Well, the only real info we have so far is 1 pic and the mention of speed (fast, fast, fast!)

    As to the look in the pic, it reminds me of one of those double hull racing boats:
    http://gasseracing.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/GG_SBI11_11GG5055.jpg

    As far as speed, my guess is perhaps it will have some kind of accelerator console and/or maybe a special warp core?

    Hmm, they've already done the Impulse Capacitance Cell. I'm leaning towards a Warp Core that gives crazy bonuses to warp speed.
