    Gotta love that little cameo at the end and the call back to the final scene in "Yesterday's Enterprise".

    Disappointing that there's no cool Romulan themed space munitions set like Feds and Klingons have gotten from featured episodes. Do you guys have an aversion to plasma sets or something?

    First the Stealth Module was nerfed to oblivion, now it's given some boosts with this.

    "A person with these armaments could easily slip in and out of civilized life and move undetected for years" Right, so is that why personal cloak went from unlimited to a short cool-down worthless ability outclassed and made redundant by other kits?

    Also, no Romulan costumes again since the last time Romulans received a ground kit.

    The shield has an autocloaking feature. I assume the armor's cloaking boost is based off of that.

    As for the rewards, the week one rewards seem underpowered compared to their Romulan Navy counterparts (thought the ambush thing might compensate, that will have to be investigated) and polaron is a pretty boring energy type. Something like a Plasmatic Polaron might be interesting, and certainly more Romulan. And yes, a costume unlock of some sort would be appreciated.

    Going to have to agree that having a plasma based space set would have been much better. While I'm not going to write off the ground set immediately it seems far less useful in terms of just general play than the Rom Navy set and even with Tac captains being able to double dip with the nerfed stealth module it doesn't seem to be all that amazing in terms of beating out other sets. I think I get the intent behind the set, but in the future it should probably wait till more gaps are filled in requested equipment, like a quest based space plasma set with a unique effect, instead of trying to push something out that someone internally found interesting.

    Yawn. Wake me when there is a plasma based omni beam reward.

    Did I miss something? It looks like the blog page tells you what the multi-piece bonuses for the set are, but no stats for the individual pieces.

    I guess this brings closure to the whole Sela ordeal, may this be the last and final time we see that miracle worker con the universe.

    Nice touch on the cameo, as well as the homage to Tasha Yar final moments in TNG - Season 1 Episode 23 entitled "Skin of Evil."

    Link to Tasha Yar's original death ->From Armus with LOVE

    One question though regarding the cameo -> I thought that the Enterprise NCC 1701 E was lost in the vastness of space? Does that mean we get to find out what happened to the Sovereign class Enterprise in the upcoming featured episodes?

    Episode was fun to go through once for each toon but repeatedly is kinda meh to me since I don't ground much. Even then I have different tastes from these pieces.
    Green people don't have to be.... little.

    It's pretty terrible.

    The defense values are comically low on the armor and the shield is +20 Phaser resist. The individual pieces are fairly gimmicky; the shield requires you to get hit to proc it's short-term cloak effect.

    The Polaron Compression Pistol better be game-breakingly amazing to make up for the terrible stats on the armor and shields. Like, hand-held boolean cannon amazing.

    Oh, I knew that, I just thought that the blog detailing the rewards should actually give the details of the rewards. Pretty useless blog post otherwise.

    And speaking of useless: a Romulan ground set with a Polaron weapon. Who thought that made sense for set created by and for a race with a Plasma damage bonus trait? I hope they change that before the weapon goes live next week.

    -- On paper, the armor seems like a downgrade but I'll give it a try later. And yeah.. ROM wise, I'm a great fan of their Plasma-Hybrid types. It was a smoking theme.. also, I _think_ its the weapon type that pop't off the Weapon-Hybrid system, no ?

    Nah that was the ancient disruptor-plasma beam from the story missions.
