    I have a question. :/

    Is it already known if only the new discovery Klingon subfaction enables recruits or are 25th century KDF legit as well?

    Thank you. That’s cool.

    I mean, if we go by past experiences then yes, I'm sure they will give us a new character slot for free.
    But don't fault me for not exactly believing everything they say, especially not since every news post is riddled with mistakes and typos.

    Oh, I don't blame you in the least. If they tell me the sky is blue, I am going outside to verify for myself. :lol:

    While it does look pretty, kudos to the ship artist, this is not a T6 ship.
    • It has 9 consoles to a T5U or non-fleet/zen T6's 10
    • It has 11 bridge officer abilities (4/3/2/2) as other all-universal T5s: T6s have 12 and Fleet/Zen T6 BoPs have 13
    • It has no specialization nor specialization seating of any sort
    • It has no experimental weapon slot
    The declaration of Withering Barrage leads one to wonder if these are its stats at all, or if it was simply copy-pasted for the announcement from an old T5 model.
    Hopefully it's the latter, as this is a scaling non-fleet T5.

    Yeah, nice catch on the copy/paste with Withering Barrage. Seriously.. would it be that hard for someone to actually type up the stats?

    You are absolutely right.. the ship, while free.. is absolutely a T5 ship that's been named T6. Everything about the ship from the Bridge Officer stations to the number of consoles is a non fleet T5 ship.

    I am totally cool with that.. but it would have been nice if they just called it what it is instead of just slapping the label of 'T6' on it when clearly it's not.

    Seems like something they pulled out of the T5 Klingon Mirror Ships Pack. The stats are close to the Mirror Ki'tang Bird-of-Prey Retrofit.

    That would not be in line with their usual MO though now, would it?

    Not agreeing with someone doesn't give you the right to be an TRIBBLE.

    Ci sono tre tipi di giocatori:
    - quelli a cui non va mai bene niente... e vanno sul forum a trollare;
    - quelli che sono talmente imbesuiti da credere a qualunque cosa i dev dicano, perfino che la luna è fatta di formaggio... e vanno sul forum a trollare;
    - quelli che credono a quello a cui è giusto credere, sono d'accordo con quello con cui è giusto essere d'accordo e sono critici con quello che non va;

    Ai giocatori dei primi due tipi, gratis in omaggio un bello specchio lucente su cui arrampicarsi. E una mazzata in testa per la loro poca intelligenza e compassione verso gli altri giocatori che non la pensano come loro.
    Agli appartenenti al terzo tipo, invece, dico grazie. Anche se non sempre si riesce a mantenere la calma, siete quelli per cui vale la pena incazzarsi.

    Well, it seems that.. as usual.. the stats initially posted were wrong. I know.. what a shock.. it's usually so closely proof read for accuracy right? :lol:

    It seems the stats have been updated and it's now listed with the correct 11 consoles as well as the correct ship trait 'Sniper.' They have also added Command specialization to the Lt. Commander Universal making it an actual T6 ship as opposed to the T5 stats that were originally posted.

    i think you're mixing up the alliance raider with the 25th century m'chla, because the stats listed here haven't changed at all as far as i can tell: https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/11483293-the-klingon-empire-is-recruiting

    it still has withering barrage, no spec seating and 9 console slots​​
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    why the huge inverted V shape to it? too much in my opinion. not sure im liking this now.

    I think its nicer than the discovery designs, i have always thought they lookd awful, this at least looks more klingon.
