Yep, you read that right. If you had to pick a "flavor" to describe each faction(Fed, KDF, Rom), what would it be? :p

    Fed: Whatever they want at the time, including the other factions flavours as the flavour makers will bend over backwards for them
    KDF: Double chocolate, but one chocolate was given to the feds and the makers refuse to add the other chocolate
    Rom: The current fed flavour combined with mint (the current fed flavour hides most of the mint flavour) (also comes in a rather rarely found mint choc chip version)

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    I don't know how to describe them in "flavor" so I'll go about it differently

    Federation: High Society. They have it all. Replicators, holodecks, beds so soft I would sink in one

    Klingons: Outsiders, often looked down on, thought of as brutish and stupid. Not as much on the shows as is rampant in this game is the emphasis on how stupid Klingons are thought of to be. And we have some of the Iconian "war" arc to exacerbate it further. Their code of honor is not the same as Federation morality,but is too often compared to it in its own terms and therefore falls short. It is therefore assumed they are nothing more than the evil faction of the game, like Orcs or Sith-lords in other games. So it is mostly assumed that they have no code of conduct at all.

    Romulans: The whole was thought of as an evil species, a reputation brought upon them by a few but powerful leaders, being the gov't, the military, and of course the Tal Shiar. Trying to overcome the prejudices that they have for others and also that which others have for them.

    * Federation - Hairbo Mix (there's something for everyone in there)
    * Klingon - Barbqeue (tangy, can be hot, doesn't go with everything)
    * Romulan - Sweet 'n' Sour (great at the start, something new, sour and dull endgame because they've been forgotten about)

    Federation: Rootbeer

    Romulans: Microbrewery Beer (Tal Shiar get Fine Wine)

    Fed- Porterhouse steak
    KDF- McDonald's hamburger
    RR- Rump roast

    Not exactly a flavor, but more like the quality with which they are treated.

    New Romulan Republic: Wood-fired Brick Oven Pizza followed by Key Lime Pie.

    Dingdingdingding! We have the canon winner!

    Though I will say, the Feds get this root beer: Abita Root Beer. It's only the BEST ROOT BEER OUT THERE. In fact, I just found out why it tastes so good: it's not made with high-fructose corn syrup, but with Louisiana sugarcane.

    Nice name for that ship. ;)

    Oh, and the name of the Klingon coffee you're looking for is raktajino. It's a "real" thing. (In universe.)

    ^I like that one but don't necissarily agree with it...

    Fed: diarrhea... its everywhere and just keeps spewing, demanding more and more out of your system to tolerate it.
    Klink: Proper Aged Swiss Cheese.... really strong flavor but more dry than the sahara desert and the flavor doesn't really last
    Rom: Basil... its put everywhere and doesnt really belong there 1/2 the time, and quite often forgotten when it shouldn't be

    *these are the flavors I choose as these factions pertain to STO only. Actua canon factions would differ

    Fed: something sickly sweet
    Klingon: spicy, Korean spicy
    Romulan: fresh green/veggie salad, crunchy
  • lizweilizwei Member Posts: 936 Arc User
    Federation - Mild blue cheese sauce.
    Klingon Empire - Red hot chilli that burns your throat.
    Romulan Republic - Expired green salad that used to taste quite good, but is now wilted and brown, covered in copious amounts of mild blue cheese sauce or red hot chilli that burns your throat.

    Fed=flavor of the month
    KDF=Rockyroad
    RR=overpowering minty goodness

    *disclaimer: Yes I am biased toward the RR, :wink:

    Isn't the official canonical flavor for the Federation that of Root Beer?
    Quark and Elim Garak both despised root beer, calling it "vile" and considering it a metaphor for the "insidious" pervasiveness of the Federation; Quark remarked to Garak that root beer was "so bubbly and cloying, and happy... just like the Federation", also noting that "if you drink enough of it, you begin to like it – just like the Federation." Quark asserted that Nog's acquired taste for the beverage heralded the end of Ferengi civilization. (DS9: "Facets", "The Way of the Warrior")

    Feds would be Vanilla flavored root beer, but the kind made with real sugarcane and real vanilla.

    Romulans would be Romulan ale OR Osol twist flavored.

    Klingons would be Flavored like blood wine marinated targ steaks.
    "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
    Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
    he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
    In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
    He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
    He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
    He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."
