Still no Herald Red Alerts!

To all those at cryptic, I beg you: please give us a war to fight. The Heralds make even more sense and are better than pesky borgs to be attacking us. Why not make a new one, like you did with the Tholians? It's not asking too much! If you're gonna bombard us with war propaganda, then you might as well make them do SOMETHING outside of the episodes and instances. Probably no one at cryptic will read this. :c

Almost.
It would be more useful to the overall war effort to engage these Heralds. So, please, upgrade the Red Alert network to incorporate Iconian-incursion notifications.

Why not open a gateway in orbit of Earth/new Romulus or Kronos....and then nuke it from the orbit? Or a nice suicide mission...i bet they love self sacrifice...
Sometimes the writing is like a Bond movie..."No Mr. Federation...i have to explain my grand plan to you and THEN leave you without guards to be killed in the most stupid way ever."
But i like it
So please, Cryptic, if we are supposed to be at war.....more war...p-p-p-llleaseee

Why have they still not murdered Quinn in his sleep? Why haven't they placed a Solar gateway inside ESD? Why has there only been an attack on New Romulus and Kronos so far? Why is my character still walking around without any notable problems?
If my character really is as important as the storyline wants you to believe, then it would make sense for the Heralds to randomly show up on my bridge, inside a turbolift, on Risa, whenever I don't expect it.
This war needs more random events, even more than any other war in STO I can think of. Herald Red Alerts would be a good start.
Replacing the Borg alerts with Herald alerts just makes sense now. As was suggested above, limit them to the higher levels because someone still running lower content wouldn't have player far enogh along to be in the same 'story' as high level characters.

Maybe they want it concluded in a nice package, unlike the Borg.
Because if I understand correctly, the Borg are done, yet they are still attacking federation space in the Borg red alerts?
It would have been nice to have customizable red alerts. So one month can be the Borg, tholians, dominion, mirror.
But that isn't likely.
planetary invasions were a hot topic to for new alerts.
ship gets an alert...heralds are invading ... wherever... and then fleet goes to defend the planet.
if you fail to protect the planet. planet is taken.
however you get the chance to retake it after not instantly but after a certain amount. as a seperate alert of course.
There is no red alerts or space encounters. There is no ground missions other than the que.
We need something!

Just take the Borg Red Alerts, replace the Borg ships with Herald ships and slightly rewrite the mission text.
Done.
It's so little work and would do so much to make this feel like a war.
It doesn't have to be hard, it just needs to be there.
If you really start to think about it, the Iconian gateway technology should logically render the entire "war" completely irrelevant. The alliance is still incapable of blocking them. They shouldn't need fleets to send after us, they could just as well gate bombs into our warp cores any time they wanted and there's absoultely nothing we could do to stop them.
But then that wouldn't make for a very interesting game.
