    I got a better idea. How about you give the Romulans and KDF a faction-specific science ship already instead of more alien garbage?

    Have faith. If you'll remember last year and the year before that, the Samsar and DSD was a showcase ship for a new set of powers which was followed by a set of faction specific ships. I'm sure this will be no different :)

    I am sure they will be getting a shiny new 3-packs of T6 Scimitars and Bortasqu's, though, not science ships.

    What I don't get is the people asking for faction-specific KDF sci ships. Faction specific KDF sci ships are Gorn ships in this game. Does it really make that big a difference that this ship is an alien ship, when the one you are asking for would also probably be an alien ship?

    On an unlrelated note, I just realized this:
    Temporal Rift Stabilizer, a console that generates temporal anomalies along the forward line of the ship.
    Timeline Stabilizer universal console. Activating this console will stabilize any temporal anomalies around your starship.
    Does that mean we can create permanent temporal anomalies if we use one after the other? :open_mouth:

    No, I'm saying make a KDF T6 science ship, period, instead of a cross-faction one from some random alien species not affiliated with their faction, especially one that per Cryptic's own story is too destroyed to even build its own ships anymore. Remember, the Krenims' entire territory is under Vaadwaur occupation and they had to outsource their superweapon to the Alliance.

    By the way, there's still this loose end of A FREAKING SUPERWEAPON to tie up. That would be a much better story than this Temporal TRIBBLE War.

    The Dyson Science Destroyers in a way were a faction specific ship. When the box opens, one got a ship that matched their faction.

    What did you all do last year to get the anniversary ship? I wasn't here for that

    That was the year before. Last year was chasing Omega particles around the galaxy.

    Nice. I like it.

    But looking at the ship makes me wonder: is it even possible to rust like that in space?

    Some of those ships went through a year of Hell.

    I kinda like it. It reminds me of a fan designed Gorn starship - the general length of the hull with three nacelles - that I bought deck plans for back in the 80's.

    The trait sounds good. Pretty much a science version of Attack Pattern Delta Prime.
    I've always liked FBP but found it lacking a long time ago. This should hopefully change that.

    Depends who you calling alien. To the KDF, Orions and Gorn etc aren't aliens, they're members. Just like to the Federation Vulcans aren't aliens.

    What you say about KDF sci ships being Gorn designed is true. Or at least it used to be. It appears Cryptic have abandoned making sub faction style ships for KDF. The Command cruisers should have been Orion in design as they're FDCs, like the Dacoit and Corsair. But seeing as they're made Klingon in design it would appear Cryptic are homogenising all new KDF ships to be Klingon in design only. Which is an unfortunate waste of design potential.

    Can someone remind me what event we have to grind to earn this ship? And I presume it's account unlock like the Winter ship, yes?

    Last year it was a mission that gave you 400 points, and the remaining could be acquired with the Omega Stabilization Mission. But it might be different this time around.

    And I believe if you read the article first two paragraphs, you have the answer to your second question.
    During Star Trek Online’s 6th Anniversary event you will be able to obtain 6th Anniversary Prize Vouchers by participating in the event. These 6th Anniversary Prize Vouchers can be spent on an Event Reputation project to obtain the Krenim Science Vessel! This project requires 1000 6th Anniversary Prize Vouchers.

    Once this starship is obtained by any character on your account, any characters on this account can claim the Krenim Science Vessel from the Account Claim tab within the Event Store (in the Event Reputation window).

    I can't help myself. This ship just looks ugly to me. I'm already 'meh' on the Annorax and the Krenim warship seperately. But meshing them together like this just looks silly to me. Those blue highlights and the rust-brown hull just don't go together. At least the Winter Lobster had a unified design aesthetic.

    Don't really care about the console or the trait either. So I'm not even sure I'm gonna get it. (I do plan on getting some Omega Upgrades. If the currency is tied to that, I might as well get the ship. But I'll probably never fly it.)

    Here's hoping they do as last year and make the featured episode give 400 of the anniversary currency on the first run.

      LOL, the ship isn't rusted. The Krenim ships, barring the Annorax and its pets, all have that rust orange paintjob to them.


      Or DO it? Maybe they picked them up from a used ship junkyard.

        Copy and paste from Annorax? Come on guys...there is no more creativity juice flowing in those designers? Please re-do and back to square one.

        We already have the top ship in the game. It's called the Krenim Imperium Warship [T6] and it drops from the Year of Hell Lock Box.

        No mention of the ship or its console being part of any larger set / collection.

        I'm glad. :smile: No handicap for people missing the Annorax dread or the Krenim warship.

        Seeing more pictures of the ship as well as her stats, I think I'll like flying it with my Trill. :smile:

        To me the ship stats are just "meh". It just seems like an average Science Vessel, although I do agree with you on not making the console part of a set with the Annorax. I honestly thought Cryptic would do that then run the promo for the Annorax the following week.

        I have both the Annorax and the imperial Warship. If this ship is anything remotely like those two, it's gonna be a solid ship.

        It's a nice blend of both the Annorax and the warship, while keeping the design somewhat similar to the canon patrol ship.
        I like it.

        Not sure if this new ship is enough to get me out of my Annorax, tbh, it's a beast ! But I'm always grateful for some solid choices in the science ship category.

        I just might level up a few more non fed science guys now.
        Too bad we don't have any Krenim parts in the character creator tho. :(

        It looks nice. Was kind of hoping for an unique temporal secondary deflector though.
        This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
