New Episode - Uneasy Allies

pwlaughingtrendypwlaughingtrendy Member Posts: 2,966 Arc User
edited April 2015 in Galactic News Network [PC]
Nearly every attack, every clandestine operation, and every crisis that pushed the galaxy closer to war and instability has been orchestrated by a singular, ancient enemy - The Iconians.

They're on their way Captains. Be prepared.

    Ey!

    That gate is property of the Tholian and Breen Alliance! I demand compensation for the Breen Confederacy! 10,000 turtles and 50 Beagles are to be mailed to me!

    That being said... I do like the bulky look to the gateway.

    Cool. I'm guessing this is where the Iconian War starts to get real.

    Your father was captain of a starship for twelve minutes. He saved 800 lives, including your mother's, and yours.

    I dare you to do better.

    Seeing as I doubt I will ever get to 60 at the rate we get xp, I hope everybody else enjoys this new episode.

    Ummm...I'm pretty sure that the "uneasy allies" is referring to the Alliance. Sela is a prisoner/intelligence asset of the Alliance who is helping us find and defeat the Iconians

    Quite honestly, if you haven't managed to level up a character to #60 by now, you're doing something very wrong. All level #60 takes is to run the Delta Episodes, then a few STFs and you'll be there. I've four characters (two primary, two secondary) at #60, and I've got another one levelling up currently on #56. All of that has been achieved by playing (and not grinding) the game.

    That would be awesome. I understand not doing that when she was still in power, but now she is very much not in power, so diplomacy is no longer a concern.

    How have you not gotten to lvl 60 by now? It took me a while on my pre-DR main, but on my lvl 60 alt, it didn't take me long at all.

    Or at least give her the proverbial spanking (real thing probably not allowed since game is supposed to be for all ages).
    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.

    All this talk of an Iconian War makes me think Cryptic went with an unimaginative interpretation of this foe. I really hope they don't end up being another stupid trash mob to deal with.

    Spoiler alert!

    They're all hiding in a [REDACTED] in the [REDACTED] and you need Sela's help to get there. We also finally find [REDACTED] and we meet a new [REDACTED] to the Iconians.

    Also, Gaius Selan is [REDACTED].

    Alright, let's do this! D'trel and her Scimitard are all set to bring on the HURT to the Iconians!

    And chew out Sela for sucking as a person and leader.

    Now now, no need to put that [REDACTED] everywhere. You know better than to show that off in public, Mister!

    So will we get to open our big, fat, gaping, incredibly massive, black hole of a mouth at Sela's trial to mouth her off?

    Not really ... recently played every Episode within the Journal during XP Weekend + 20% XP Bonus + 5% Talaxian Bonus ... and barely got from 52-60 ... Delta Episodes alone, won't even get you from 59-60 ...

    It's easier if you're doffing a lot, though ...

    PS : Most of my Toons will probably be stuck at ~52/54ish forever, though ... so I know the feeling ...

    This is an idea I have for something's we might find in an Iconian related zone:

    Artifacts from different Fed, KDF, and RR planets, like The Amber Room for example.

    Holograms, fossils, or even clones of ancestors of some player species, unless you'd rather have the Iconians improve the Barclay virus from TNG Genesis?

    I've been looking forward to this since I first heard about it from other sources. And it's coming sooner than I would have guessed. So bonus! :)

    Sela does what's best for Sela, always. Will be interesting to see how she tries to take advantage of this situation. 'Cause you know she's going to do her best to twist things around the way she wants them.

    She could give the Iconians lessons.

    lol she's in Sto more than she was in Tng.
    Milking a cow that she regrets leaving springs to mind.
    Looking forward to the day Sela gets killed off.

    I have one tune that has done no episodes; just doff missions and she has been level 60 for about 4 months and has 5 special level 60 traits.

    This episode will be a bridge/gateway "iconian gateway pun" to another grind aside from the DR, dilithium, doffing, specialization, reps, and the delta recruitment we just love grinds so another one is coming. If this indeed what it boils down too i'm afraid I won't log in for that either lol.
