    While true, they also fly for Feds, plus non-Romulan characters (by the sounds of it) can’t fly it, so that leaves out the rest of the KDF faction. :)

    All Factions can already fly the T'Liss and T:Varo, et. al. Klingons have their own D7s, Feds can't fly them. Romulans would get their own version of the D7.

    I'm an extremely hardcore Rommie fan and have always back up my position with big money when necessary in STO.

    With that said, as some of you may know, my goto ship is the Jug with my special rommie loadout for it. As much as I love the Jug it always hurts my heart I love the ship so much because there is nothing like it in the Rommie offerings.

    I believe the Mogai should be a legendary class box or even special promo ship and it should be the default goto ship for Rommies like me not some Vaad ship.

    With that said I have every rommie ship in game except the T'liss because the cost is stupidly high. The last time I checked it was around 3B EC!!!

    Accordingly, I want to use real money to buy every TRIBBLE in game. I'm sick of the greed factor and the RNG garbage.

    On a side note, since I have been forced to use Steam since some policy change with PayPal I have hardly spent anything in months on STO sadly. I did however reallocate over $800 from my STO budget on Steam to other tiles since I can not get the charge bonuses on Steam and no one in Cryptic seem interested in responding to my messages and posts but I digress...

    Why?

    Any reason? or you just being a TRIBBLE and hoping people can't get what they want? Cause that's what it sounds like.

    Ridiculously stupid post.

    it was a joke. i guess my later portion of the post didnt get your attention then?
    yall need to just relax already. damn.


    here - let me repost that part for you...

    now for the good stuff...

    1. im a fan of OS ST as it is, so this is a nice thing.
    2. glad to see some older ships are getting the t6 treatments they have long deserved.
    3. hopefully this means more older ships in play currently will get the t6 treatment as well.

    peace out.

    Um.. ok. The 2nd part just seems irrelevant and in no way indicated you were joking. If it did.. I guess I just didn't get it so um.. never mind, nothing to see here. :lol:

    I hope it isn't a T'liss. The Malem makes a great torpedo ship, but I've never really liked the design. Also the ship got its face kicked in by the La Sirena supposedly in part due to how old it was.

    It would be better than nothing, but this isn't the ship I'd want.

    As far as i am concerned this is the only legendary Romulan vessel:

    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Yeah, definitely looks like the T'Liss and some sort of Pistol in the Video.

    A new ship from the latest show is already considered 'legendary' lmfao.

    Well... it IS of the same class as the very first Romulan ship we saw in Star Trek. And the fact they did the old BoP like they did the Connie in Discovery... she's a beauty. Still recognizable as the class TOS BoP, but modernized with more detail that makes her look great.

    Not my cup of tea. I see a D7 and I think Klingon, not Romulan. I know it was also a Romulan ship, but it doesn't look Romulan.

    I can easily see that for the eng captain but for the tac and sci players, there should be others option. Then we can build to our prefere style within the hull layout.

    I agree, I think there should be more than one option for a Rom Legendary. The problem is, all the iconic Romulan ships are tactical oriented in this game, except for the D'deridex. Thus, there is no real "Legendary" option for a sci ship.

    Moot point because it appears we are only getting one Legendary ship. It is only fair that Feds get TEN and roms get one that is probably just going to be a re-skin of one of the Fed legendaries.

    I think you forget that Star Trek has always been from the point of view of the Federation. So naturally all the shows represented by the Legendary Ships are Fed. By comparison, how many CANON ship designs have we seen from the Romulans?
    • T'Liss
    • D'Deridex
    • Scout Ship
    • Science Ship
    • Mogai
    • T'Varo

    I don't count the D7 "Stormbird" as that is shared with Klingons, or the Scimitar as that was a Reman design. The Drone Ship was... well... a Drone and I don't know how they'd be able to work that into a playable ship.

    Honestly the only ships that COULD be considered for any kind of Legendary status is the T'Liss (As the very first Romulan ship we'd see) and the D'Deridex.

    Klingons would get more because they were showcased a bit more. Ships like the D7 (Probably include the Disco D7 and Qo'nos 1 variants), the B'Rel, Vor'cha, and Negh'Var would probably make a Legendary list.

    But at the end of the day... Fed would have more because there were so many more hero ships, which the Legendary bundle represents. The majority of them being ships that bore the name Enterprise.

    Don’t worry, you get used to it after a while. Like it or not Fed is the majority of the player base so of course they’ll get the most ships. The great part is that we are at least GETTING Legendary ships for the other factions. That was in many ways unexpected.
  • garaffegaraffe Member Posts: 1,353 Arc User
    I am just saying, why not a Legendary D'deridex, Legendary T'Liss, Legendary Mogai, and Legendary Scimitar? I include the Scimitar because it is the flagship design of the Romulan Republic. Afterall, the Republic is not just Romulans, but also Remans and others.

    Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining about getting a legendary ship for the Republic. Like I said in my first post on this thread, I am happy for any new Rom content.

    I certainly hope that the KDF will be getting a good selection of Legendary ships soon. In fact, I am confident they will, and I am confident they will receive a lot more than just one. After all, there are more KDF fans playing this game than there are Roms. I am actually very surprised that Cryptic announced Legendary Rom ship before releasing any of the new KDF content they have promised.

    Its probably because the Romulans were showcased more recently due to Picard, and we even saw an updated T'Liss BoP.

    Simple: every "Legendary" ship they release has some NEW variant that comes with it, and they haven't made those NEW variants yet. They have been spending their ship time working on (other stuff).

    Yes we get only one legendary ship...while the KDF is getting NONE. So...yeah...

    Expect the Klingon ships to be coming, we've seen the B'rel reskin already.. this is the year of Klingon afterall. I look at this as the "well its been a hot minute since we did our one Rommie ship for the year, time to put out another so the hardcore ones will tell the whiners we haven't forgotten about them"
    So much for the "Year of the Klingon", eh ;)

    I just want to point out that while I know DSC ships aren't exactly popular or everyone cup of tea the Klingons have been getting releases through all the Discovery stuff.. Romulans got 1 single solitary release in the Khlohr and that was what july 2019?. Let us have this single release before the blast of revamped KDF ships comes out and we wait another year for another single ship release.

    I forget if it was from a Rodenberry Podcast or it was from a Ten Foward Weekly, there was mention of revamping Romulan tutorial that there was going to be a new T6 available afterwards. Could this be the one of which they spoke of?

    I think so.

    I don't see it that way, cause I always anticipated some earlier Klingon & Romulan content to be revamped, if not the same time, at least in close proximity. I'd love two see a Legendary Ship though for Romulans & even the Klingons in time. Though it would be nice to see a close replica made available via a Epic Phoenix token, if it could be also flown by Non Romulan Faction characters... ...but if they did that it may have different specialty and Bridge Station assignments as well.
