    I just wonder if the code will be a one time use, or an account unlock.

    Mirror Guardian was an account unlock. I'd wager this will be as well.

    I like all the factions but I can't really see myself purchasing any with time or money with everything so micromanaged and a dilithium exchange so high that its roughly grinding your tail off for 5 or so dollars/euros worth a day lol. Certainly not paying for systems that have gotten so frustrating why pay someone money who is pissing you off lol.

    hope you can buy it off amazon free ship with prime... dont like the idea of hunting it down at a store. hoping it'll be an account unlock for all fed toons on account.

    That's the cheap one, the expensive(99$) one comes with a port that can launch a sphere ship. :p

    I'm losing hope on that front. Cryptic only seem to do cruisers now.

    Just start calling the Nova a mini-cruiser....from the side, it kinda looks like one...that may be enough to catch their attention.

    Well, I have heard it referred to as a "baby Sovereign" in the past! :D

    I just picture the Sov carrying one on it's back now, much like the -D had that space slug thing on it's back in one of the TNG episodes. :smile:

    It would probably fit in the Enterprise-D's main shuttlebay ;)
    (I jest!)

    If not wait for the KT Ent-D it'll surely fit in that monster

    I'm curious as to why it's labeled as a "Command Assault Cruiser". It's not like the other standard T6 ships are named in such a way.

    Because the T5 ship is called an Assault Cruiser as the ship model is used to represent the Sovereign, Majestic, Noble, and Imperial class cruisers. http://sto.gamepedia.com/Assault_Cruiser

    Turns out this site has it on sale $75.

    Still, all that for a single ship? Reminds me of the WOW TCG raids against Onyxia and all.

    I just want to know if they are updating the Sovereign model with this ship, cause my old girl needs a facelift compared to her cousin ships.

    Questions we have....
    Will it get the standard T6 facelift, will it get access to T6 material options, can we have access to the other assault cruiser skins, will it come with a unique console and will that be apart of a 2pc set, or will it be like the gold nagus marauder and just be an update of the meteron gas can riker maneuver console, will it also have the wide angle torps, what mastery will it have, will it have a fleet version or be fleet quality.....?
    Will they make an official blog announcement will all info or will we be pleasantly surprised when we enter our whizkids code on what we are getting?

    It's an Assault Cruiser that you're in command of, captain. It'd sound too weird to say captain cruiser, ya dig?

    Yeah, preordered mine from my local gaming store too. Should be available early in the month, per my gaming store's distributor site.

    yes i saw link, tho it not has nothing with game, as its about Enterprise E so, i i went about NX :)
    also i want to say it would be nice to get t6 Sovergain, t6, Nova, t6 Vor'cha, t6 Wells, t6 Miranda-ok this one is quite old, but if its used in 25th cenutry, let tradition continue :)

    You saw the link...yet failed to read. It's about their new Enterprise-E pack coming with a code for a Command Assault Cruiser...aka Sovereign in STO.

    oh it really write command assualt cruiser for Star trek online, nice, tho its still questionable will it be T6 tho price of 30 dollars is price of t6, but we will see :/ and whats the worst that shop doesn't exist in my country :(

    Even more unlikely when Cryptic seem to be moving away from releasing cstore ships outside of a big bundles.

    The last cstore ships were in the Temporal pack months ago, and no ships other than gamble ships since then.. :(

    I don't understand this. Bundles are only a good thing. You save money. The Temporal ships can be purchased individually. So if you only want one or two specific temporal ships, you can just buy those and done. You're not forced to buy the bundles for one specific ship.

    Nova can still be released as part of a cross faction 3-pack, like how Valiant was released. Even though it's been a while since the last individual ship release (I think it was Hestia?), there's no guarantee that it won't come out like that. I see the cross faction bundles as a good thing since KDF and Roms can still get in on the fun.

    I never said it was a bad thing, just unlikely to get it as a single ship these days...

    A T6 Sovereign? Finally. Now all of the TNG era hero ships have their upgrade. I do wonder, however, if the ship will be promotional code only. I honestly doubt that they'll do this, because all other hero ships are available in the C-Store, and I can only imagine the riot that this would cause in the forums. If they make a C-Store version to go with this one, I imagine they'll each have a different console, and maybe a different hull design and/or hybrid seating.

    I'm glad that we get a T6 Sovereign.

    @reyan01 : Yeah, it is another cruiser. But I think cruisers have all been accounted for now. This should open the door for new T6 science vessels. That is if they don't just invent a new cruiser design.

    PS: Now where is my T6 Vesta?

    Sorry, I assumed the fact that they use Command on other ships to indicate that they have Command Boffs...and the fact that I already explained all that in an earlier post would have been obvious. Funny that you suggest I read your post when you failed to read several of mine. :tongue:

    So, wait. I have to buy some piece of a crappy table top game I'll never play, in order to obtain a T6 Sovereign? And it will never be available any other way? Ridiculous.

    That said, I'd at least like to see the stats on this "T6 Command Assault Cruiser".....

    Isn't this cheaper than the zen store price tag of T6 ships though? So spend less, get more?

    but some people like to complain just because they can......you can buy this for $15, and get some junk with it that you throw away........or you can complain because you can't buy it in game for $30..............hmmmmmmmmm.......

    Chill dude. As other people have pointed out, you're paying half of what you'd pay to get it through the C-Store. But if that's not good enough, just go to whatever local gaming store near you sells Attack Wing and ask around if there's anyone who plays Attack Wing and doesn't play STO. You might find someone planning on buying the Sovereign who'll gladly give you the code for the STO ship.

    Heh, you'll be lucky to find any. We have 4 game stores in town and NONE carry more than a couple of STAW minis. It's the same rules as X-Wing, but without any semblance of play balance so people don't really play it much, they just collect the minis.

    That being said, you might get lucky, or be able to find someone at BoardGameGeek or the like who is willing to part with their code, or someone selling it on EBay. In 6-8 months the codes will be worth $50+, so be quick if you are looking.

    If it truly is $15, and it is easily available to everyone without any silly hoop-jumping (I'm talking Amazon.com or Walmart as the level of ease and simplicity, here), then I guess the rage subsides a bit.

    People say "i can only image the rage on the forums if it was only obtainable through this offer and not the cstore blah blah blah..."

    But i say there can be reasonable "rage" from those who actually went out their way to obtain this game piece to get this ship then later offer it in the cstore. Just like if they were to do that with the T6 connie or mirror guardian or any other hard to get 'exclusive' ship.
    I would be miffed for sure. But yeah yeah, i got it for half price....not really the point.
