At last i can create the two Cardassians i want to bring in, Letak Elmor and Teron Lusat. I have back stories and first officers in place for both and an actual Cardassian race instead of an alien gen race. Perfect. Long time in the making.
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
It is probably the same as Klingon unlockable in the Federation and Ferasan in the Klingons. just another selectable race locked to the faction.

YESSSS!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
HOW MANY YEARS, CRYPTIC!? HOW MANY YEARS HAVE WE ASKED FOR THIS!? HAVE I ASKED FOR THIS!?
FINALLY!

Please allow for the use of Cardassian uniforms and weapons, I want an authentic Cardassian compression rifle - Also even though I already made Alien Generated Cardassians, with lock box Galor & Keldon class vessels - I am willing to delete and remake them simply to make them authentic - I can even re-purchase the Galor and Keldon class.
Finally playable Cardassian - yoohoo! Nice
Now will you allow for up to at least 75 character slots? I already maxed out my toon slots on my account, hate to delete some of my characters to make room for the new races. Yes, some of us has maxed out their Character slots, which is 50 in total.
Given that the Cardassians are not a seperate Faction, like the romulans, my guess is No. You are just making another KDF/Starfleet character, so you will be using their tutorials. It is just that now, you can make a Cardassian.
Probably on the c-store
- Thot Gar - Commanding Officer of the Braaktak Kaan
I can live with that.
i doubt very much on the weapons but as to the former, i got an estabished character on my female bajoran, her first officer is an alien gen cardie at this point, it would be great to get an actual cardassian boff.

I would rather play a Cardassian that helps Romulans to get back on their feet and in the process ending up with Star Fleet, then having to bend over and join that oppressive Regime the Federation is.
I can think of no good reason why these disruptors (reference) shouldn't have a full range of offerings... something also applicable to the plasma-disruptor hybrids...
i think from a storyline point of view it would be almost impossible to consider as the early missions point specifically to an internal Romulan and Reman matter. it would mean adding extra dialogue for alien characters in some missions in the republic and doing more voice work.
i would imagine that is the reason, but it would be nice if the Romulans were thrown a bone and the Acamarians or Suliban ended up in the republic, but it isn't a stable or secure one, so you got some suliban who prefer to remain free and neutral and others who want to do something for their own people by working for the Republic to protect their people. that would make it more believable for the storyline purposes.

Hey, a lot can change in four decades.
PS. question for Cryptic: Cardassian Boffs? I figure this will be addressed later but might as well throw it out there. Also: would it violate Starfleet protocol if I replaced my away team with tailors? Simple tailors are highly underrated.
Notable missions: Apex [AEI], Gemini [SSF], Trident [AEI], Evolution's Smile [SSF], Transcendence
Looking for something new to play? I've started building Foundry missions again in visual novel form!
While I expect these Cardassians to have either Elisa Flores and her cohorts or K'Gan and his starter crewmen, I do still hold out hope that the Jem'Hadar will have unique starter bridge officers given that they will be of their own faction?
Thats what I was thinking. Though it could have been done to show off the ability to add makeup to them in general I suppose. If not its a weird oversight
:: inserts tongue in cheek ::
It may have more to do with the PVC Duct Hosing that goes up both sides of Cardie necks.
You try giving a Nerve Pinch to a race with necks made out of PVC Hosing.
The Republic has the option to role Alien toons since Day one.
The emerging Romulan Story Arc also has species hooks at least some i am aware of in Dialogs usually you only notice those as Reman but there are some.
History and Fiction is full of foreigners that get sweeped up in internal struggles in the process ending up as great equalizer for the people they care fore.
There is no such thing as impossible just the notion we don't care.
Cryptic could if they wanted we don't know much about what the average Joe Cardassian did after the Dominion War.
There is plenty of room to consider that some did hasten to help Romulans after the Hobus incident.
Even one of the old Cardi arc mission did hint at that Cardis do hold Romulans in high regard while you played the mission as FED or KDF they virtualy insulted you or just wanted you to get of their lawn.
So yes imho if they want they can do.
