If it's a 3-pack, I think every ship should have a different spec. Still not sure what do with the sensor analysis then, though.
How good is the chevron saucer separation console? If it is not that good, may be drop the chevron saucer separation console for a different special console?

Ditching the chevron gives you +8 turn rate but that's pretty much all good it does (here are the details). The console has no stats on it's own and the chevron pet is also pretty much worthless as it dies very quickly and you have no control over it.
Mu money is on a LTC uni/uni or a new specialization/something unique. In the case of a three pack i'm intrigued ofbthe aforementioned one different spec per ship
I wouldn't be surprised if it winds up having both Intel AND Command BOFF seats.
The "Flagships" are most assuredly going to be C-Store ships, with *maybe* a possibility of a poor man's T6 version in the shipyard like the useless 200k FC T5 ones.
No C-Store ship has ever had Dual Specialization Access. That is something Cryptic has only done for Lockbox / Lobi / Promo Pack Ships.
On that note, these Flagships I feel will unfortunately be straddled with Command seats (because thy're "Flagships"), by far the worst Specialization BOFF abilities in the game.
I think one or two mentioned it above, but why not have a universal spot with an option for a universal spec?
I don't think it would happen, but I would love to see an all-universal Boff setup (as long as one seat was given to each T/E/S) and the console setup could be a 3-4-4 T/E/S so that it was already Fleet-level...

I never understood why people think that. I've personally found a lot of use from Command.
Give it a Flagship specialization seat. Something like a hanger bay but a place where you can slot a ship that you have in your drydock. Loaded with the weapons you equiped and the whole nine yards. Why not? Arn't they made to command a fleet.
The simple solution that they should take with the oddy and bortas and the romulan ship (oh wait we don't have one)
I'll give you a hint.... The prototype was destroyed in a TNG movie.
Yeah, the Scimitar is effectively the Romulan flagship.
LOL
Ok, sure whatever, that is a REMAN ship, that is not obtainable like the FEDERATION AND KLINGON Flagships
for 200k fleet credit I can get a stock oddy or bortas from the tier 5 shipyard, ROMULANS have no such ship available like that and the next person that says a REMAN designed ship is the ROMULAN flagship should be strung up in the town square and face at least 20 lashes from a whip.
oh and it wasn't a prototype, but then again nemesis was a fan based movie so there we go anyway.

Concentrate Firepower is very situational and half the usefulness of the ability disappears the moment you get into an environment when there are friendly ships with torpedo launchers. This includes even Hangar units.
Rally Point is cute.
The rest are just meh.
Compared to the very heavy debuffing capability of Ionic Turbulence, the disables of EMP Pulse Probe, the single target crit capability of Surgical Strikes, and the awesome capability of Override Subsystem Safeties to spike your capabilities... It's not even a contest.

Of course not.
Both the Odyssey and Bortas free version were given away at the 2nd Anniversary, this was 1-2 years before the Romulan Faction existed.

Because the free versions were added with the Fleet system, again well before the Romulan faction existed.
and the next person that says a REMAN designed ship is the ROMULAN flagship should be strung up in the town square and face at least 20 lashes from a whip.
The Lleiset is the Romulan Republic flagship, always used in the same events as the other flagships.
oh and it wasn't a prototype, but then again nemesis was a fan based movie so there we go anyway.
I dont even ...
Doesn't matter, feds screamed to have a proper fed carrier since beta, so I think I can scream to have a proper romulan flagship, would it really kill cryptic to try and make a ship to make more money off of?
Yes Nemesis was a fan based movie, look it up if you want to, one of the several reasons it did so poorly.
Can call the Scimitar a flagship, but it still doesn't have the same set up as the oddy and bortas, and yes I know those ships were anniversary ships, doesn't stop the wanted desire to have what the other factions have.
Just because some people think one thing doesn't mean others cant think of another thing and makes the other wrong.
But its whatever as this point, wont see a romulan flagship, nemesis uniform, science ships, or faction oriented starbase stuff, since the romulans are nothing more then added numbers to the kdf and fed fleets.

is to orient the hybrid seats to fit the type of version the ship is.
i.e.
Tactical variant gets the ltc tac/pilot
Engineering variant gets the ltc eng/command
Science variant gets the ltc sci/intel
with a universal command slot for all 3, this would provide the most well rounded and best fit for each playstyle that exists for cruiser captains..
Thus, it will never happen.
The anniversary comes as a T6 10 console with a warp core / singularity core that makes the free to obtain Sol set complete as a 4 item set.
The C-store one comes as a T6 11 console with a special console that makes a 4 item set with the 3 consoles from the C-store T5 3 pack.
Yeah, the Scimitar is effectively the Romulan flagship.

The Lleiset is actually a Tulwar Class.. so technically, the Scimitar is not the Romulan Flagship, the Tulwar is.
