Between Romulans, and the Fleet version issues (Seriously, an Engi console? And the skin options are broken, too?), I fear that the B'rel is beyond saving.
Well, the borg console is sort of like a graviton console, so 4th eng slot is more of an insult than total annoyance, i guess. More rep consoles would fix the fleet B'rel console issue for us non-Tac captains.
I have 10 chars, 4 years + of play, many ships and loadouts
I use my Oddy most
This ship however now that its complete.. Ridiculous fun even with lower DPS than some of my options.
Yeah, Orion Warbarge would be awesome. As would a Fleet Marauder. Always loved that one, but it sucks in its current shape IMO.
I saw the warbarge in the Undine battle zone the other day and started thinking that myself.
Also, I was thinking it could be a good candidate as a broadsider ship...
Don't see why people make mountains out of mole hills.
The console arrangement of the Fleet B'rel isn't a significant handicap, It can still easily vape just as well as any other of the BoP's, and has the potential to be much more durable as well.
And to be honest, it kinda of does make sense that would would want to pack a lot of neutronium consoles onto a ship with an enhanced battlecloak, as you don't have any shields when making torpedo runs under cloak.
Not everything has to be about max epic sustainable DPS.
The B'rel, while I would've prefered a 4th Sci or Tac slot, is still fine. Sure, you're not going to be Kirking in it, but why would you? It still works just fine as an alpha-strike platform. I still use mine as one, and get reliable results, while I consider myself a mediocre PvP'er at best.
Also, in PvE, you'll still do fine. Those missing one or two tactical consoles aren't going to handicap you all that much. You might not get the insane dps numbers a FaW Aux2Bat Dem scimi gets, but hey, you're pulling your weight and flying a ship that looks awesome.
Might not be a surprise my favourite is the B'rel. I've got plenty of lockbox ships sitting in the Shipyard, including a JHAS, JHD, JHEC, Galor, etc., and still return to my B'rel after maybe one or two PvP matches or STF's. There's something about the design and the way she handles that makes me want to fly it. Even though it's outdated, relatively weak, lacks a weapon slot, a bridge officer and had a weird spot for her 10th console, she's still my first pick.
She was my first C-Store purchase, and I've never regretted it. Even in these days where a single BO3 can one-shot her, or a surprise torpedo gets you blown up in an STF. The adaptability she brings, with all the uni boff slots, is too enjoyable.
I just love the classic Bird-of-Prey. Although, for PvE, I might grab a Norgh and make her a dedicated PvE ship. Those two lt. com slots look like fun.

Well now, let me think. The first complete ship line I bought was the Orion ships, I love them to pieces, I just wish Cryptic would either let them equip cannons or change the models so the "cannons" look more like communication antenna for coordinating raids.
I also love the classics, the B'rel, D7 and the Vor'cha.
But to be honest I love all the KDF ship designs regardless of their origin.
Now I agree that the Orion Warbarge needs to be playable but another one I would love to fly is the Nausicaan Ravager Dreadnought, I am a huge fan of vertically stacked ships and the Ravager gets me all tingly.
Fleet Nova (Rhode Island Skin). Always has been, always will be.
Absolutely NOTHING I don't love about that little ship, and nothing I would change about. No ship is capable of making me grin like that nimble little minx can.
whats with all the feddy bears sounding off about their numerous ships in the Klingon fleet yards? if this is open to feds too shouldn't it be in general discussion instead of KDF?
Trophies for killing FEDS ahh those were the days.

lol Chill out dude, it's all in good spirit. The thread is about any favourite ship as far as the title goes, so anyone is more then wellcome to present their favourite ship, be it Romulan, KDF or Starfleet one.

you have grown complacent in your old age. this is the Klingon fleet yards if it was a question to all it should have been in general discussion is all I was saying. the war may be over old man but I have not seen news of a new treaty as of yet .

Oh, relax. The Feds that are coming in here are just participating in a friendly conversation and aren't causing trouble. Drink some bloodwine and celebrate with your federation allies.

He's probably one of those diehards who doesn't believe in alliances and will be the down fall of the empire.

Probably is. Shall we fly our favorite ships towards Q'nos and challenge Jem'pok to a duel to the death and put an end to the this silly Fed-KDF conflict for good?

Sounds like a good idea but Jm'pok would probably find a way to weasel out of it knowing him.

Yeah, Honestly there's so much Conversation in the Fed Fleetyards compared to klink and Rom, I just wanted to hear from other people who like Klingon side, and what their favorite ships were. Prob shoulda made the thread in General, But wanted more action on this part of the forum. lol
Just so much to like Klingon side but soo many threads about Fed ship this and that. For Feds I still don't know. So undecided and I keep hoping from one ship to another, to the next FOTM, etc.
Klingon not like we got the same choices, I keep going between Botrasqu and Kar'Fi. Ignoring my absolute Favorite since it wasn't a 10 console ship. That mentality has left me.
its like what other in here have said the fed threads get so much action we need more here. but if its going to be the same mindless dribble they put out over there why bother.
so yes ill take that blood whine and chill out as another had said, as long as it is not diluted with root beer.
Trophies for killing FEDS ahh those were the days.
My favorite ship is the (Fleet) Varanus support vessel. It's the reason I joined the KDF. Cryptic did a great job on that ship.
The dress is gold and white. Over 70% people says so. When viewed from a certain screen angle it appears blue and black. The dress displayed on amazon is a blue and black dress, but it's not the same dress in the picture. If you're seeing blue & black you're slightly colored blind. A normal upright screen = white and gold.
For some reason, I like the stripped down, streamlined look. It still retains the D7/K'tinga appearance but looks more sleek. Plus...a lot of fun to fly it even though it lacks the hull strength to be a serious contender. It does have room for lots of healing though which almost makes up for it.
Fed side, my favourite ship is my crazy little Nova
KDF side, it's a toss up between the mirror somraw or mirror qin heavy raptor
Romulan side, it has to be the mirror mogai
"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."

don't discount the ship because it looks old I still use it most of the time with my engineer toon. for my messed up playstyle it works better than the Mogh for me. the fleet version with D7 skin eventually ill get my alt toons and their builds up on my site. to show them.

The T'varo is far better as a tac ship, though.
