Ok looks like many from the Klingon Empire are interested in the Voth now.
However I think it should be made clear to the Federation and Romulans.
The Empire only wishes to put the Voth in there right spot as potential Pets and Play things for the Empire at large.
Rumor has it the local Orion Consortiums are already getting ready for some big sales of Voth pets that can be used as a faithful bridge officer to kick around.
After all....who can say no to having a pet dinosaur.
I want to Apologize to the Ferengi Business Units about this, but it looks like the Orions already have gotten the copyrights, thus any complaints should be aimed at your local Starfleet or Romulan homeworld consultants.
As usual all sales are final....
Oh and please don't aim your hate at me....I am just a simple Fersan Messenger...plus I would not be able to see or read your hate-mail anywise since we don't use view screens in our ships.
Power without Perception is Spiritually useless and therefore of no true value.
That concept is certainly not the one ship we actually seen.
Um, Yeah, why didn't they follow what's already been seen on screen for the city ship :eek:
I don't get it, we've seen a couple of ships on screen, the two we've seen on screen need to be replicated in-game exactly as they were in the TV show, then you can "make up" the others around them.

What makes you think they didn't do just that?
At the very least we have seen screenshots of the Voth city ship from Voyager in game.
Neon ATARI Logos on the Ship that looks like a Jem'Hadar Dreadnought skin.
(on the TV ships it was 4 or more lines... STO does 3, that makes it look like the ATARI logo...)
but STO does Star Wars Stardestroyer engines AGAIN (already hated those on the Romulan Ships).
One of you Ship designers doesn't know how Star Trek Engines work... (rule of thumb: if it looks anything like a Jet Engine, you are probably doing it WRONG.)
Observation: These ships seem to come with a lot of green in them, similar to the Elachi and their green/yellow glows. Any chance the Voth could be more green/blue or ... purple?
Generally I couldn't care less about new lockbox ships (or any ships, for that matter. We have enough. More content, please), but these intrigue me. For a long time, I've been hoping for a large, non-Starfleet cruiser for my Fed character that did NOT have an iconic look as easily belonging to an identified race (ie: D'Kora = Ferengi, Galor = Stupid/Cardassian).
Haters can hate all they want, but that "Star Destroyer" ship looks awesome, as do several of the concept art ships (#12 in particular, I think). Here's hoping some of them are straight-up Cruisers/Battleships and available to players. I need something for my Federation ALLY to fly proper.
So this is what we have to look forward to in Season 8, more generic and bland ships. The Voth Battleship concept looked good apart from that ugly growth on the underside. A few Voth concept sketch ships looked ok although most looked like ships from Star Wars. Reading the Dev Blog, yawn, what comes across was compromise. Another great opportunity missed by Cryptic. Sad day for STO.
One thing I don't understand in the creation of the ships for STO is the sheer lack of customization the ships have. I mean we have been clamoring and requesting more options for the way our ships look, and we get little to nothing. Now you show us here over a dozen concept images for the ships, why not just ADD all those concepts to the game as different variations of each ship. Surely by now the in-game ship creation process can be streamlined enough to allow for multiple variants to be put into the game ?
Just saying it would be nice to have a lot more customization of our ships. And for please don't add these to the lock boxes please add them to the c-store im tired of your money grabbing schemes.

I fully agree with you.
Instead of adding dozens of new ships, i'd rather would like to see more ship parts for the ships already in the game be added.
Regarding the bolg, i can't help but Cryptics ships look always the same to me.
Add some ugly nacelles and these ships could also be new Cryptics Starfleet ships or KDF ships.
And yes the city ship looks definitely like a gun, lol.
The problem i see with Cryptics designs is that they try to put too much different things on a ship, like spikes or courves or other things that disrupt the general shape of a ship.
The designers should really focus on the general shape instead of focussing too much on little details like antennas, spikes and other knick-knacks that just disrupt the general shape.
Less is more.
Althrough the upper right ship looks quite good for a alien ship.
But as aramyll already said, i'd too would rather like to see more customizing options (ship parts) being made for already existing ships.

...eh the city ship kinda looks like it has eyes - near the front when the sides start to flare out - those blue lights kinda look like eyes.....almost like the ship has a face....
And the rest of the ship looks like some fan made star destroyers I've seen floating around the web....
Wow one of the ships is a variant of the Dominion ships already in game and a couple others look like they were lifted from the "Surtur" carrier from Battlestar Galactica Online.
Combine that with the Dino-Riders and looks like Cryptic is now copying other's bad ideas instead of creating their own.
Well its worth noting that you will always find elements from other designs in any new design, thats kinda human nature to include elements that you like.
nothing bad about it.

Come on cryptic doing up their own ideas... that's gone the way of the dinosaurs... ha like what I did there :P

Can we have Subspace Sound Blasters to Deculture the Voth into submission?
"Last Engage! Magical Girl Origami-san" is in print! Now with three times more rainbows.
Support the "Armored Unicorn" vehicle initiative today!
Thanks for Harajuku. Now let's get a real "Magical Girl" costume!

also the Engine on the Voth City ship was a big round glowy thing that looked more like a generator...

If I remember correctly, (Some time ago I saw the show) aren't the Voth also cloack spezialists?
Playable race I would believe. Making that assumption on the limited amount of ships and that the Romulans haven't been played out yet.
The Voth did have advanced interphase cloaks on the ground and in space, yes.

That's no gun.... it's a space station!
"Oh Lord, Please don't let me F-up"
The first thing I thought of was *pew* *pew*.
From the group sketch, the end of the second row looks like a Collector rifle from ME2.
I would say I look forward to blowing these guys away but then we know voth are be able to disable Federation weaponry remotely.
