    Here's what I think the stats on the Dreadnoughts are likely to be. I had the fortune of following playing with a scimitar on tribble and that as well as leaked info (consoles, hangars, etc,) will be what I used to derive these stats. I will not include BOff slotting.

    Hull - 45,000
    Crew - 2,500
    Weapons - 5 fore, 3 aft
    Consoles - Tac - 3 eng, 2 sci, 5 tac
    Consoles - Eng - 4 eng, 2 sci, 4 tac
    Consloes - Sci - 3 eng, 4 sci, 3 tac
    Turn rate - 5.5 degrees per second - 7-7.5 with set bonus
    Shield modifier - 1.0
    Impulse modifier - 0.15
    Hangar Bays - 1
    Battle Cloak
    Consoles http://imgur.com/a/u7hdR

    We will see the official stats monday

    Based on the gateway screenshots, the Tac version is 3Sci/2Eng/5Tac. Based on the youtube, it appears to have only one hangar.

    Maybe they'll change up the formula. Make the Engi version be 4/4 with less maneuverability but more durability and an additional console slot or two. The Sci version could be 4/3 but come with two hangar bays and subsystem targeting.

    There was some discussion on Tribble from players flying them, its all but confirmed 5/3 and 1 hanger, which is not a bad thing, she is a predator after all.

    We have known the Scimitar would be a playable C-Store ship since before LOR even launched, so your are totally wrong about this.

    Dan confirmed it in online chat the day LOR Beta came out, and Al confirmed it in an interview that same week.

    Since the available evidence says otherwise and you've offered no proof of your claim, I remain skeptical.

    I would think the schimitar would be more sci leaning than eng for consoles. Not sure why i think that, but I do.

    I swore on the podcast linked earlier the woman said the Scimitar has two hangers...

    In your dreams, its got a turn rate of 3. I would pay twice as much for the 3 pack if it had 5.5 turn rate.

    Well I wasn't privy to this conversation, so I hope your wrong or that the people on tribble can't test all versions and there is at least a version with 2 hangers...
    Becuase I mean I understand 2 hangers and 5 forward guns seems abit powerful and 3 back guns( i can see weapon power issues with this though and note full aux is really needed to take advantage of fighter dps), but then again we know so far it has less hull hp and likely turns slower by default as well then the jem'hedar dreadnought carrier. Also that its not likely to target subsystems or sensor scan... Most likely due to the fact its the only carrier with combat cloak + singularity powers.
    I'm hoping for a good shield mod too, at least 1.15 like the oddy.

    Do not underestimate being able to cloak with shields up. It really gives this ship a unique edge.

    Unproven, as every ship appears to have a turn rate of 3 through the gateway. It certainly turns better in the youtube vid.

    It also seems unlikely that the 2 piece bonus would increase the turn rate by what appears to be about 6-7.

    after 3 seconds and you have to have the console..... but I'm not underestimating it i just believe that a ships stats shouldn't be balanced behind the consoles the ship possess, the consoles should be balanced separately. Becuase not everyone will use the consoles, i know i don't use my oddy consoles.

    Next blog about scimitar:players facepalming after seeing the stats.I can bet the scimitar gonna have less hull,shield modifier,1 less hangar than jem dread and -10 power per sub and not to mention bad turn rate.1 less hangar is already bad >_>(since so many players wanted it to be full carrier)

    Or i am the only one who always think that ship gonna be nice and when u see the ship stats..''oh ill stick with ships i already have''

    My predictions.

    56k Hull with max structural skill points and a deflector with +26% structural integrity

    Base turn on par with Recluse

    2 Hangars (at least on the Eng and Sci variants)

    I already correctly predicted 5 fore/3 aft weapon slots before we even knew the specs

    A (finally) worth while 3 piece console set

    and

    PvP whiners crying nerf because:
    (a)Some of them are too cheap to buy one and support the game, and if they can't have fun with it, why should anyone else?
    and
    (b)Are not as good at PvP as they would like to think, and have major issues adapting to new challenges and coming up with new strategies to deal with new ships, aside from the crying "nerf!" strategy.

    Any hint on the different rarities & associated stats of the fighter drones for the dreadnaughts? I'm already stockpiling Romulan marks and Dil.

    Only one we've seen is the standard EC drone ship. advanced (dil) one does not show up on tribble.

    Elite will most likely require fleet T5 science like the others. It will still be exclusive to the scimitar and it's variants but require the T5 science.

    all 3 of them???


    EDIT:Because at that sneak peak video of that scimitar variant looked like 1 hangar only,since the third time he used romulan drone 1 of that 2 already spawned vanished.

    I don't know, she didn't go over the specifics of each variant, but some people keep insisting that she ship only has one hanger.

    All three variants will have 2 hangars

    Also, someone said it had a turn rate of 3? gateway is bugged, it says every ship has a turn rate of 3 and 10k hull. the real turn rate is 5.5-6

    On the one apparent Hangar thing on the Youtube video, it may be a bug with the game engine stacking forward launched frigates. I've seen a Jem Dread on Holodeck launch Elite JHAS, and each wing appeared to be be just one ship until they engaged in combat and were forced apart.

    I can't find the pics, but the Advanced versions are on Tribble Dil Store now, and the abilities are just bumped to rank II.

    Problem is that there are multiple threads over the Scimitar, I don't think this is the thread they were posted in, and you didn't draw attention to the fact these are the Advanced pets in the pics instead of the usual EC pets that were first posted last I encountered a thread with these posted.

    Anyway, back to the pets, I missed that they had a confuse effect "Multi-Spectral Emitter - Sensor Distortion I", could make them quite interesting with making enemies shoot each other, depending on the proc frequency.
