Delta Recruit - Fed Side? Or KDF?

So for the DR event, I'm weighing my options on creation of some alts. I have a fleet on the Fed side (my own fleet of one 
), but I'm wondering what my options could possibly be to help contribute.
I like the idea of a Reman (made one just to test the waters), but found out some of the T5-T6 Fed ships aren't playable by a Reman. I don't have a fleet on the KDF side, and honestly I'm on the fence about playing one (I have a KDF alt around level 30, but don't play her much except to doff for contraband).
Suggestions? Any "fun" and active fleets on the KDF side who can sway my decisions to the other side?

It will be a KDF tactical toon so that I can make use of the T6 Mat'ha Raptor which is part of the DR Ops Pack that I bought back in Dec 2014. I already have a KDF tactical toon, but that toon strictly flies BoPs only.
None of my Fed, KDF and Rom toons are in a fleet.
Plan on doing two feds (one Klingon and one Romulan,) and one Klingon or Gorn KDF.
My biggest issue is what classes to make them, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.
Okay so when did you last play Klingon and have you played the storyline since it was redone or prior to. The storyline was redone what.. a year or two ago and is pretty good... but if you've already done it... then since you already have one at 30... not a big deal.
My bottom line first is.... the fleet rewards are meh... and if that's the whole deciding point on what side you're going to play... play a Fed and boost your own fleet... not that it matters all that much with the account unlocks... but heck if the ONLY deciding factor is the fleet factor... go with Fed.
But... not the longer post... why be stuck in a rut with the same friends and all... find yourself a new fleet... a Klingon fleet... and try something new... there aren't all that many active Klingon fleets out there... and those who do a lot of times need more help then not boosting up their fleets... while there are a million Fed fleets out there and even more Fed players.
So why not use the chance at DR to not only boost your own self... and help out the KDF players who need the help. It's not like with the account unlocks your own fleet will suffer.
Also... I don't remember if the Reman have access to them... but the Klingon allied Romulans have some of the best looking boots in the game.
If there's a KDF fleet who is casual to a fault and emphasizes family time above 10k DPS, as well as just simply having fun, I'd be more than willing to join up and help contribute to fleet projects, etc. I'm an extremely causal lifetime player, and my son's happiness is the only thing (other than my RL job) that keeps me from playing full-time :P
Lorha@wired2thenet for KDF. Forget what level she is at the moment (just checked ... 33. The Rommies is 15ish). I have TS3, as well as a personal TS3 server, but don't do mumble or skype (mumble crashes my system for some reason, and skype is dedicated for family).
As noted in my Giveaway thread, I have plenty of stuff to contribute to a fleet, and do so willingly, so if there's anyone out there who would sway me from creating yet another fed toon, feel free to PM @wired2thenet in-game, and let me know why your fleet would be a good fit for me. More than willing to try out.
Why:
- Easier PvE teamup and teamed levelling options cuz 9/10 players I know favour fed.
- 300 overlapping purple doffs from my other fed toons.
- Huge amount of unlocked star ships from tier 1 to 60 (traits)
- My own star base which will get quiet a boost and lets me donate freely.
My toon will be a klingon at heart and will have a easy time fighting like one thanks to the benefits he gets fed side.

Could you elaborate more without using the word contraband or referring to it?

It's definitely useful to have a KDF toon if you're Fed, just for that alone.
Also, the number of episodes for FED is larger, so it probably will be slower to finish / get rewards.
For fleets - larger groups have both fed and kdf fleets. So finding a good kdf fleet isn't much more difficult, but do ask around, some of the kdf fleets are semi-inactive.
I am going to try to play the federation with delta recruits. Try.
thanks for the epic lol
i hadnt literally laughed at the screen all day!

TRAITOR !!!!!!! LOL
Because of the festival of blood and fire running at the same time.
im gonna stick with KDF and just start a new fleet for some casual Klingon fun. kdf dont have as many big fleets as fed side but the few we do have dont have allot of room for donations. so seems liek the perfect time to start up a new one.
and because i suspect we will get a huge influx of feddy players that are new to the KDF i have a bunch of freebies lined up to help them along the way as they lvl. with open bank slotts. (the few i could afford) and open privileges for buying fleet gear no donation requirements. Larger fleets with filled holdings are welcome to join up their alts while lvling or welcome to stay . and know leaders ( even some that are Known TRAITORS ) who make a KDF toon will gain a seat on the fleets council. LOL
Really though Experience the new if you havent tried KDF now is a great time since even your feds can gain something from the experience.
KDf has few missions in the Arcs allowing you to complete the requirements faster.
At lower lvls the Klingon ships are still awesome and wipe the maps of PVE content that is appropriate to players lvl.
I would say the kdf side don't have all the chatter and nonsense that ESD has but im sure that will change as more feds come to the 1st city. But im sure new to kdf people will be surprised just how helpful long time KDF players actually are. we have made due with so much less for so long that we are a closer faction when it comes to helping others. and this is also probably why all the BS chatter is not tolerated on our side.
If you are bringing new friends to the game KDF is the way to go also. because we do have less. you can get the best of the best that the offers a Klingon for less money from the c-store items.
If you haven't played kdf since LoR the tutorial is awesome on our side, really nicely done episodes and you get a combat pet mastiff early on.
you could have stopped there and been 100% correct
So A bajoran, Joined Trill & Reman - FED (Tac)
Liberated Borg - FED (Sci)
Reman - KDF (Eng)
already Got FED
Trill Eng (Main original toon)
Catian Tac
J Trill Sci
Romulan Sci
Talaxian Eng
and Klingon tac (KDF)
I thought I'd certailnly make the toons and start them off, then hibernate them. I have the Fed C-store leveling ships so the fed toons will get hem, but I don't have much in the way of rommie or klingon ships.
Would be nice if the kdf and roms finally got a single sci ship that remotely performs as well as the vesta, scryer, dauntless or pathfinder but sure dosen't look like it will happen.

I'm still dreaming of a Shadow (Armada II) like Science Vessel as a T6 Ship, the current ones are horrible, outdated, and the Temporal Science Vessel lack the cloaking device.
It's better for me if they can be useful in some way(contraband).
The only thing that I didn't decide yet are about the career choice like tac, or sci.
Yeah, that thing was neat. Hiding within untargetable objects with it's phase-cloak an striking out of nowhere....
Too bad they can't use it bacause of all that licensing issues....
I plan on rolling a Klingon Engineer and a Fed Science officer on Thursday.
It might. I'm counting on it actually with my first Science Romulan for a Delta Recruit, and I already have one 'main' Romulan Rom-Fed Tac and a L60 Romulan Rom-KDF Tac.
Really wish there was an Orion and Joined-Trill species option for the Roms. The Orion syndicate is part of KDF so why not Rom when Rom is also KDF allied? They're also part of starfleet at least in JJ-universe, and I've got 4 Orion BOFFs serving on my Fed Human's crew. The same goes for Joined-Trill, as in, what precludes one from finding a place among Romulans with a symbiont that forms deep ties there?
Also really wish Romulans were made into their own faction, a Star Empire that's somewhat different and not just a villain. Make it into another alliance-selection option to preserve those who are happy allying and staying in their current fleets, or breaking off from it to stand on their own.
Alien to me isn't a real species when you lack species-specific abilities like seduction (the best ability in existence ever), plus the ability to shape-shift into whatever other species you want on the fly removes the pride of choosing that species to begin with.
Just wondering if I'm missing something...
I plan on deleting all of my low level alts (haven't played any of them in years) and filling up my roster with lots and lots of Delta Recruits.
maybe also a fed science or engineering dude, i have already 3 feds (2 tac, 1 science); but no romulan, i have already 3 roms, and i'm tired by their ships, the choice is limited because of the scimitar; and most of them are ugly
i wanted to buy the joined-trill playable character, but the price is too expensive for only small bonus.
