The Lukari have begun a space exploration initiative after the events of Sunrise. To meet the challenges of the final frontier, they’ve been collaborating with the best engineering minds in the Alliance to produce a new Lukari starship that will launch for Star Trek Online's Anniversary event.

I like Alpha, but I think Beta is cooler. And I know some think it is Romulan-like, but I don't feel that way.

Thank You, Cryptic......even when I don't agree with all your decisions....Thank You for Star Trek Online!
The layouts don't contain colours, but from what I suppose (and from the little I've seen in the pictures of Lukari stories), I'd quess that the palette wil be mostly purple, with cyane and blue, maybe a little yellow.
The Alpha is much sharper, with a lot of edges and sharp angles. It'd look too much like Dominion with the supposed palette, for me to like it.
Also, it looks more like a dreadnought, maybe even a space station. I know that the Lukari are supposed to struggle whether they should build a warship or a science vessel, but since the main character of the stories is an engineer/scientist woman and seems to be going to try to get into the absolute command over the project, I'd expect a hybrid manouverable science vessel/escort.
And yes, I like bird-like ships .
Thats why I recommend Bravo.

Alpha is my choice for this particular vote, and after looking at the upcoming choices, it may be my final vote as well. Beta does seem "too Romulan" for my tastes, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Ships 3-6 though have me scratching my head.
Number 3 is a 'typical' flying saucer design from the 1950's, hot horrid but not going to beat out Alpha for my vote.
Number 4 reminds me of the paddle from Breakout or Pong. Definitely not going to get my vote. It is nice that other styles are being looked at, but this may be taking things too far, at least for me.
Number 5 is a Bat-a-rang. Not bad but it won't get my vote over Alpha.
Number 6 is the only other contender in this contest for me. But it is a distant second. For now.
Things may change if we get larger or more detailed pictures of these ships, similar to how it was handled with the Fed Carrier voting. For now though it's Team Alpha for me.
Losing faith in humanity, one person at a time.
Alpha reminds me too much of a S'golth.
