You've seen the Discovery Operations Bundle, now see the power of its starships. Which ones will you command?

Too bad that one couldn't be added with a third Klingon ship to the bundle.
My reason is simple...I don't trust Cryptic with money or scaling ships to meet certain hull leveling. I bought a Walker this way and get better numbers with any other ships and avoid scaling ships like the plague.
That's all I am looking for. That ship is mine once it hits the C-Store. LOL!
Pack....don't care.
Still don't have a decent picture. I am blind as a bat already.....get some light on that thing!!!

However, I've been noticing that the scaling values appear a bit off. For instance the new battle cruiser, 3 fore weapons and 2 aft at level 1?!? That would be ridiculously overpowered for a new character, considering that every Tier 1 starship has 2 fore 1 aft.
I think the scaling curve should be adjusted to bring them more in line with conventional lower tier ships.
Aside from that gripe, I like the stats of the battle cruiser and will likely purchase it at some point. I'm not a fan of the Disco Klingon designs so I won't bother with any bundles. (Still disappointed at the 'value' of the full bundle, so I won't bother with that either.)
That is the entire point of buying a Zen ship at lower levels, though.

Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
I wonder what it is about…?
Edit:
Found it - it's Miracle Worker ships mechanic
Even lower tier C-Store ships don't have weapon setups like this. Though, if it is Cryptic's intent to render current lower tier ships obsolete, then releasing ships like this would accomplish that nicely.
And on the pilot ships ... They are 4/2 which is one less than standard escorts which are 4/3, making them raiders.
Will they have flanking added to them to balance it out?

Well, we know that the main reason that Warbirds are not coming out with the Discovery ships mainly because Discovery thus far does not have deisgns for Romulan ships, which means that they cannot feature something that doesn't exist.
Now, there is such a thing as them creating Romulan ships before with little to go on, but I think in this case, they don't even want to attempt anything here. Remember that as Discovery is on going, the Romulans could still make an appearance in some form without the Federation knowing. The Klingons could deal with them. Since there's the possibility, they do NOT want to see their work screwed by something that doesn't look like it's from Discovery.
I already have the Pilot Raptor trio.

Might pick that up in time.
Now that this seems to be a good ship does that mean the Cardenas will suck?
Why does it matter how long it's been since a Romulan ship came out? If I remember correctly, the Romulan ships weren't warbirds at all.
Keep in mind that the devs gave Romulans to players because the players wanted to play as Romulans. They didn't have to expand on the ships like they did after Legacy of Romulus, yet they did.
Also keep in mind that It's been over a half a year since Jem'hadar came out as a faction. They're still stuck with the same ships. They also don't have Veteran ships that cryptic said were gonna be made.
I'm sticking by my belief that the devs simply are out of design ideas for Romulan ships and have decided to scale them back since VIL came out, hence them opening both Jem'hadar and Romulans to the full advantage of T5 and T6 ships, with limits.
But does this mean the DSC era skins/materials will be only for the fleet ship versions?
Also people talking ROM ships, maybe the romulan D7 could be scaling?
Bring the Enterprise XCV-330 to STO
Thank you, kellmg96
I really like the 25th Century Skins. Any chance of adding 25th Century skins for the other Discoverse ships?
