    Either way, I was holding hope to get the Vorgon Carrier instead of this thing. If this is the Risa event ship, then how the bloody hell are we supposed to get the Carrier?! It better damn well not be a future Phoenix prize!

    The Carrier was last year's big prize. And it might be added to the Phoenix Box like all the previous event ships. However if you still have the project from last year slotted you should be able to work on it this year.

    Yep, this.

    If you had the foresight to slot the project last year, you should be good.

    Fortunately my SIL did slot the carrier last year but didn't get to finish it. So I'm going to do that for him this year, as well as help him get the new ship too.

    Same for me, I was on a break at this time last year, but I did log in and slot the project. Guess that means I am running it twice a day this year.. oh boy! lol

    *Chuckle* I'll be running it over four accounts. My two, my son's and my SIL's, which means twice on the SIL until I finish the carrier.

    No big deal as I have tons of time on my hands since I babysit my grands all week anyway over the summer.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    I might name my Vorgon dreadnought "PLV Lapras of Luxury" on my main toon. Destiny's ship will be named "Toothless" while Steven's ship will be named "Avalon Rising". Amy's ship will have the same name as my main's.

    On PC it was, PS4 had the Vorgon escort, which I did unlock. Now, I didn't much mind that as I full accept that the consoles lag behind PC regularly... but come on! This is ridiculous! And I still think the Vorgon dreadnaught looks like a White Star in much the same way the Elachi dreadnaught looks like a Galactica Basestar.

    Yep. Saw that image going around Facebook before it was on the game menu. Has a very distinct "Minbari built, reverse-engineered Vorlon tech" look about it.

    All of the Vorgon ships have had something of a Vorlon feel to me.

    It may well be something that the Trek people did intentionally, given the similar names, or maybe the similar names make me look a little closer in trying to find a similarity.

    This is hardly a White Star clone, but there are similarities.

    It looks more like a rat on a hat to me :))

    The ship's stats look good though, and the inverted hardpoint arraignment is interesting, assuming it is not a typo.

    It is not a typo, see the thread in this forum referring to that.
