So just so i get this right. Since i only got Romulan Toons on my Account i cant use either of the ships right?
That is correct. Your FedRoms can use the costume packs on their boffs, and both FedRoms and KDFRoms can use the bridge packs on their T1-4 allied-faction and some cross-faction* ships. Romulans do not gain access to allied-faction T5+ ships, and the giveaway ships this year are T5/L40 ships.
So no, this particular Giveaway isn't all that helpful from your perspective; maybe they'll do a Romulan Giveaway later on that specifically excludes the Federation... but that's not terribly likely. Even if you don't have one now, I'd suggest running a Fed or KDF (or both if you can) character up to L40 so you can claim the freebie ship(s), just in case you want to play either faction later on.
*I tested the Breen Plesh Brek and Risian Luxury Cruiser and found that they were stuck with either the Breen bridge or Romulan bridge respectively, while the Breen Chel Grett and Risian Corvette instead used their allied-faction bridge selections; basically, if you get a cross-faction ship, give it a looksy to see what bridge(s) you can use.
With each passing day I wonder if I stepped into an alternate reality. The Cubs win the world series. Donald Trump is President. Britain leaves the EU. STO gets a dedicated PvP season. Engineers are "out of control" in STO.
I thought we were going to be able to claim any C-Store item as free. I looked forward to getting the Avenger Battle Cruiser. That makes me sadface.
Still, this stuff's free, and that's better than having to pay for it. Next stop: the All Good Things uniforms and Support Cruiser retrofit and Varanus class!
For best results, read my posts in the voice of Sheogorath, Daedric Prince of Madness.

First off I appreciate the event and the free stuff you are giving away. Fortunately I branched out to the Klingons and Feds a while ago. I just feel that since you have developed the Romulans they have been all but forgotten. No Bridge, Uniform or free ship in your giveaway....seems odd to go to all the trouble, make them playable and then ignore those who are dedicated to being Romulan.....

I can claim the KDF Ship, but there is no entry for the Fed ship on the Cstore.
Same thing here.
This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
They're going to tell us someone cloaked it, like when they lost Deep Space K-7
Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
What's my position?
That people should know what they're screaming about!
(paraphrased from "The Newsroom)
it's going to be funny to see how cryptic explain this one. Oh my were the last words Captain Kirk uttered before he went to Starship Captain heaven to dance with the angels and someone in the halls of light and serentiy whsipered. What happend to the Support Cruiser - it wasn't in the C-store

That's sad.
It's the only Free thing they have offered I didn't have.
I was pleasantly surprised.

(thought came to mind after the scene in "nemesis")
Nope, it's just a fact that ROM stuff sell to good to be giveaway for free.
"Let them eat static!"
Same thing here.
Also Same here. Come on Cryptic; what's going on...
Edit: Looks like it was just added

Pity, it's the only one of the four gifts I was actually intrigued by!
C'mon Cryptic, give us a post, eh?
special patch for it.
edit:
no - they put the T5 Ambassador in C-Shop it is as "Claim", not as "100% off"
