    These look great and all but it would be nice to be able to get some of these T6 ships thru lvling. I am beginning to hate this game anymore because you work your butt off and lvl up your toons and last last ship you get is at lvl 40, been almost 20 lvls now my toons still flying the lvl 40 ships, not everyone can afford to buy things from the c store.

    Yeah at one time this game was sort of fun to play it used to not be about the next new platinum or gold ship that is coming out. Although if you spend time in the doff system to exchange for currency you'd just need to slowly work up a KDF assembly line from marauding. I haven't spent any money on this game since like 2011 back when it was subscription based. Although only reason I got my assembly line working again is that T6 negh'var lol.

    As well though I wish they had buffed up science ships, engineers, and bird of prey/raiders before S10 launches though. I mean imo they do better at making KDF ships than any other faction as far as how they look. I do really like how they have been doing ship releases where each faction gets something.

    I wouldn't doubt it though if we do get advancements in those areas that have been weak for years if we got some kind of cross faction raider. Kind of like how we got those dyson ships which could easily be explained that the federation and the romulans found during dominion war that they needed a faster and smaller vessels with a lot of teeth but "insert pro raider propaganda in blog" due to status of various factions in the alpha/beta quadrants the projects dwindled down to being not viable until this iconian war starts up and they need raiders to perform certain kinds of missions.

    I really hope this isn't another $30 a ship thing like the pathfinder (which at least had a unique interior)

    3000 zen+ fleet module (for whenever the foreshadowed fleet T6 comes out) is a lot to consider when I already have a T5u Fleet D'deridex.

    Neat that the Neghvar variant is appearing though.

    yup, thats what i also said before,

    if the New Versions of those Iconic Ships have not a Lt Commander Tactical OR a Lt Commander Universal ( where we can Put a Tac and others what ever they want) than, i will KEEP my Money, no one, NO ONE needs a Frigging Ship with 3 of the Same Stations ( like Intrepid with 3 Science Stations, Defiant with 3 Tactical Stations or Galaxy with 3 Engineering Stations) Ships have to be Flexible, if it was for me EVERY C-Store / Lockbox Ship should have its Lt Commander being a Universal, there are so many Ships i would love to Buy / Use BUT will NOT get because of the Stupid TO Restricted Layouts.

    And yea the T4 Negh'Var IS a Joke, one of the Klingons MOST Powerfull Ship Turned into a Lousy Heavy Tanky Ship *FAIL*

    PLEASE PLEASE Dont do those same Mistakes with the New Ships, dont Turn them into TRIBBLE when they look so NICE :eek::eek::eek:

    Wait, if I just want the Galaxy I have to buy all three? So one revised ship 3k? Are prices announced?

    Edit: Ok, the post says you can buy them individually. Not paying 3000 for a refit though. That would be crazy. I'll just stick with what I got.

    It will probably follow the Pathfinder, thus having:

    Lt Tac/Hybrid
    Lt Sci
    Lt Uni
    LtCmdr Eng
    Cmdr Eng

    Leaving the eventual T6 Defiant with:

    Lt Sci/Hybrid
    Lt Eng
    Lt Uni
    LtCmdr Tac
    Cmdr Tac

    For that matter, I'm guessing all 3 ships will share a Lt Tac/Hybrid seat.

    Also, if this was an April Fool's Joke, the sheer rage would be hilarious. But I doubt it, since why bother going through all this effort? Not to mention, the alternate Negh skin IS already available on both Holodeck and Tribble. Because let's be honest; it's more likely to snow in summer before Cryptic gives KDF a new ship skin on a much-wanted KDF ship and not doing the same for Feds.

    Are the original costumes getting an update as well? Not sure about the Negh'var but the Galaxy class costume is in desperate need of an update.

    read the blog again
    This new Galaxy model will replace the existing version of the Galaxy automatically and is available for all Exploration Cruiser variants.

    except Wes isn't in starfleet.

    however, bringing him in as a TRAVELLER...maybe we get stuck in a mess between him and John DeLancie (both pretty much omnimpotant beings)

    THAT would be interesting.

    Seems someone forgot about that little detail!

    When Wesley makes an appearance, in Starfleet attire to mention serving aboard the Titan.

    But, they opted to delete the scene for some dumb reason!

    These all look amazing. The new Galaxy model is gonna make all the others look bad by comparison. ;)

    Don't know if I'm willing to cough up 3000 Zen for them, but the fact that they're there at all is great news.



    Yes.

    um more like 3000 x 3 zen

    maybe 3000 zen per ship

    The look nice but before I join the chorus of revering them as the new holy grail I wanna see their stats first. Both the gal and the negh are terribly gimped ships with horrible boff layouts, seriously engi cmdr & engi lt.cmdr & engi ens is just plain bad.
    Unless the T6 variants do something about that useless abundance of engi slots they're not worth a single zen.

    I'm not happy that some ships have to be bought on the C Store. I might not be able to afford it. It creates two classes of players, which is unfair. I recommend removing ships from the C store, and making them free.

    *facepalm*
    your playing a F2P game and you want to take out the only thing that keeps the game alive

    the ships that go into the Z-Store are what keeps it going, your logic is illogical

    Free Neg'var skin?? With no pay/grind wall??

    Whatever has happened at Cryptic, keep doing it.


    Now we just need that T6 BoP...

    Dont Paint the Devil on the Wall ( or whatever the saying was) with that Layout that you Mention there, they can KEEP IT. Its supposed to be an Update from the old T5s not the same TRASH.

    Lt Commander Tactical / Universal + MIN 3 Tactical Consoles (or 4) or NO - DEAL :rolleyes:

    What hyperion put would be a logical follow-up to the T6 Hero line - at least THAT one doesn't have THREE ensign engineer stations like the present Galaxy does. I don't know about you, but I think it would be nice to finally see some balance in regards to hero ship boff layouts. :)

    Also, if each of the BOff classes was balanced from launch (i.e. equal number/better selection of skills) then there wouldn't be much need for the desired Galaxy update - each of the Fleet Retrofits of the hero ships are similarly "gimped" with the associated seating. Science appears to have gotten the best slice of the cake in this regard.

    by the way, to the folks out there that do that, buy EVERY ship that comes out without even bothering to think about the stats of the ship, build, etc, THEY JUST BUY BLINDLY cause you know, its new- LOL

    ...Perhaps not everybody buys things for the stats alone? Sure, in a perfectly logical world where there was a single goal to be reached with all ships and a single ordered ranking of what aspects of a ship design were better than others, people could adhere to a selection algorithim and come up with the "right" answer. No doubt this batch of ships IS playing off of their iconic nature, but it's a bit cynical to think that's the only piece of the equation...it's giving people with alternative "goals" such as RP a chance to meet them.

    So am I the only one who can not make my brain ignore all the puns in this release?

    ICONIC ships, giving us an Andromeda (galaxy class) starship.

    War with the Iconians, whose newest sphere is in the Andromeda galaxy?

    The BoP was practically the KDF's 'star attraction' from ST2 through the end of Deep Space Nine.
    On the other hand, a T6 BoP would be the logical choice along with a Defiant and a Romulan BoP come iconic ships with pilot seats.....

    Just sayin'

    No you're not alone but that's nothing new. Remeber the Faeht Intel wrabird that's some espionage ship according to story stuff? The romulan word "faehht" roughly translates to "secret", fitting right?. Or look at the delta rising logo and then the fed intel crusier the "eclipse".

    Puns and refernces all over the place if you look hard enough.;)

    It's not an "iconic" or "Hero" ship for the KDF.

    It's just-another-bloody-cruiser.

    Also this.

    T6 kdf ships: 4 cruisers, 1 raptor. So what will be added? A cruiser....

    Same for roms btw, though the D'D is somewhat iconic but only because we never saw anything besides it on TV.

    Oh look, another batch of T5 re-made in T6. The same ships, with better stats and new costumes. For 30$.

    I'm so glad our T5u are not obsolete, because you know, some greedy company would have totally made them obsolete by adding more powerful version of them with the expansion. Oh wait,... that's what you do !

    I can't wait for the T7 to come, and have to re-buy everything.


    However, the change for the galaxy is cool. Not that I'm concerned personally, but I've read numerous post about the issues, and it's nice.

    I will most likely be picking up the new Galaxy, regardless of stats, although obviously I'd prefer good ones. That's my enterprise though, I just have to have it. Yeah it probably won't be the greatest ship around, but I'll still fly it anyway. Gonna need to upgrade those beam arrays I've got left over.

    Very underwhelming and uninteresting ships. Trait appears to be gimmicky garbage as well.

    I'm very disappointed. :(

    Bring out the T6 Vengeance class for feds, and the T6 Scimitar for Roms already.

    For me an iconic cruiser that is not as old as the D7 would also be the Vor'cha for the klingons if it has to be a cruiser
