Our Delta Recruitment continues into week 2, earning new rewards for Recruits! As Delta Recruits unlock the Duty Officer system, they'll have even more opportunities to help prepare against the fight against the Iconians!

The Academy Awaits!

    Question : Do you have to turn in those Missions ... or is it enough "completing" them (like the new Story-Arc-Accolades) ... if so is there a way to check on the progress ...

    Curses Cryptic! You ruined my weekend.

    I knew this was coming and prepared for it but now I gotta make time between my Delta Recruit(s) this weekend and driving tanks on the moon when not being artillery in WoT on my 360. Curses! We need more time in the day to play games. :P

    From memory alpha:

    The military official that oversaw the MACOs was General Casey. (ENT: "The Expanse") MACO posts included Atlanta, Georgia and the Janus loop. Training posts included West Point in New York. (ENT: "The Xindi", "Hatchery", "The Council")

    So US army, not marines. If it was marines they'd be coming out of Annapolis.

    True enough but it is more the use of the sword and partial use of what I believe is still a currently in use ad slogan for the USMC.

    You have two months (may 20-ish) to make your recruit and finish the tutorial.

    The DR haters should be happy that they can profit off of a Delta Recruits' work in another week. Every exp multiplier helps when leveling up past 50.

    At least the left out "the brave" since we are talking about the Federation here.

    My point was more that there's nothing "all of a sudden" about it. They were trained by the US military academies in the TV show.

    Every time a Delta Recruit finishes a story mission for the first time, this will contribute to the meter

    Is there anyway we could get some idea of roughly how many missions it will take to fill this meter? Perhaps I'm just OCD but I've always been fond of tangible numbers.

    There seems to be an Global Counter if you're playing an Delta Recruit ... currently at 0% of Tier 1 (who would have thought ;) )

    After thinking long and hard, decided to do a ground fed engineer toon and a ridiculous jack-of-all-space skills science ones.

    Why?

    Frankly, bored and anyway, I know I won't use either much. Might as well have fun with them.

    No Lifetime Sub sale at all? Not even a possibility during the course of the DR campaign?

    Ah well. I'll probably hold off on making a Borg DR.

    Yep.... Same old bugs here as well. Question: What faction did you pick, as it seems that roms and klings crash more often? Anyway, it's just your normal craptic rollout going live. By september, there will still be most of the same old bugs without a work around.

    Same thing here, even with waiting it will not start. I picked Federation.

    You do realise that this is post "first contact" after several wars with nuclear exchanges, to include the eugenics war. Any of those scenarios would've hit D.C. with a 200 mt high yeeld weapon that would've certainly wiped out nearby Annapolis and the U.S.N.A.

    i think he is referring to the tag line the few the proud. and the poster with the blade dividing the photon from dress to combat. both are copy paste from the Corps. but its cryptic should we expect anything more?

    So, unless I'm missing something obvious... I have no free character slot to use for the Delta Recruitment event. Well, I have the option to make one for use exclusively in the Foundry, but that hardly seems right...

    Under "Regular Play" the "New Delta Recruit" button is greyed out and mouseover says;
    "You've filled all of your character slots.
    To buy more, choose the buy slots option in the selection menu."

    Under "Create Content" I *can* click "New Delta Recruit" but... well why would I bother if they can't take part in the event?

    So, am I missing something really obvious here, or am I just SOL?

    Thanks in advance!

    Can't decide on whether to make a new Tac or Engi toon. Or whether to go male or female. Been staring at the screen for the last fifteen minutes trying to decide haha.
