    It figures that the one I want most in T6 form (Oberth) is the last to get a release.

    Yes!!!! I am also coveting the possibility of an Oberth update and remodel. My favorite ship, hands down. A T6 Miranda/Reliant gives me hope that, eventually, we'll see that happen.

    This new Miranda/Reliant ship is gorgeous, though. I can't wait to grab it the first moment I can.

    How about a science 9 pack? 3 Feddie (Oberth, Nova, and Luna) and then three new designs for Klingons and Rommies? :-)

    At long last, I can pilot an Endgame starter ship... how does that make sense :/

    Regardless, buying the bundle next payday. #SaratogaOrBust

    The T6 version can be customized to look like the T1 version.

    The T6 version looks really nice pig-1.gif

    I'd love to see NPC Starfleet ships getting modernized, showing more refits and T6 versions instead of the old, partly launch models.​​

    PS: I thought the devs said they were NEVER going to do this.

    They also said that there would never be an endgame Connie, or a playable Ent-J. And yet, here we are. I'd say all bets are off. :)

    It bears more than a passing resemblance to the Rommie T6 Exploration Warbirds released not too long ago.

    Things I want in STO:

    1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
    2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
    3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
    4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
    5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
    6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
    7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
    8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!

    It has a similar look to the Aelath, but smaller, so yeah... familiar look, i'm going to get it anyway..

    T6 Miranda eh?

    That's quite a cool addition to the lineup of available Starships. If it was the 'workhorse' of Starfleet for over a century then that implies it was very well and solidly designed ship worthy of an update.

    well, i hope the stats on the ships themselves will be good, because at first glance, neither the console nor the trait look to be useful in the slightest​​

    Yep all ST fans love the reliant I would believe is just also good seeing great Klingon and Romulan ships that favor them but look really really great and something new :D

    The last two Bundle releases, Cryptic/PWE broke its tradition of releasing T6 Ships/Bundles at T5 prices for the first Weekend (2,500/5,000 Zen instead of 3,000/6,000 Zen). So I would think no discount when these release on Thursday. :/

    Edit: Well, a 20% Ship Sale is better than the T5 Pricing. I was wrong. Perhaps lower than expected sales of the last two Bundles made them rethink the introduction of new C-Store Ships/Bundles.

    This could be an excellent bundle. So far, the optics for each ship look really good. I might even try to view the live-stream to get a better viewing of the ships. Now to wait in anticipation about their statistics which will make or break the purchasing decision at least initially. Sooner or later though this bundle might be a must buy. Well done Cryptic!

    I for one, am glad that those who have been ardently asking for this are getting it. I was indifferent at best. Meaning if it didn't happen, that's fine and if it did I'd be happy for those who wanted them.

    I doubt it will pry any of mine out of their current ships at the moment, but we'll see.
    Now a LTS and loving it.

    3,000 Zen each or 6,000 Zen for the Bundle, assuming that I am correct about no discount on the release weekend. It will be that normally, anyway.

    For a moment, I thought the KDF version has something in common with the venerable T2 K'tanco battlecruiser. It'd be lovely if it somehow could use its parts.

    But hey I love bundles fo all factions.
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!
  • alcyoneserenealcyoneserene Member Posts: 2,414 Arc User
    Nice designs.

    From that angle, the Romulan one looks like a mix of their 2 most recent sci warbirds, which is okay since it's a light battlecruiser.

    Just as an afterthought: Wouldn’t it be nice if the new T6 Light Cruiser could be fitted to look like the Pioneer class for TOS characters?
