First impression, bunker mode from the typhoon, combined with cardassian weapon platforms and that is a lot of turrets.

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.

Please tell me I'm not the only one going squeee and saying I Want over all this?
And Cryptic had WAY too much fun with that trailer, recreating scenes from the other games, and even did a mockup of the old Activision intro.
Check the youtube and squee some more: The fusion-cube and Hutet were in it.
So while they are not in THIS bundle, it is likely they will arrive in game shortly.
Edit:
I wish this console https://sto.fandom.com/wiki/Console_-_Universal_-_Nadion_Saturation_Bomb could be equipped on the Achilles (and other vessels).
I kinda wanna say that the Wolf 359 Cube was a test for the Fusion Cube due to size.
As soon as I can get in game I'm gonna see what is included in that bundle. If its just the ships I might be able to get them when I finish my Campaign Run. If there are more things like a costume unlock it might be a few months with how slow the DL Exchange is being.

The impression of the Cardassian warship was that it was a notch larger than that and the Hutet would fit with introducing the Achilles.
Would love to see the Hutet in game at some point but unfortunately doubt we will due to it being a cardie ship.
Darn.
Always looking for additional Cardassian ships.
Also wouldn't mind seeing some of the Klingon and Romulan ships from older games make their way in.
The USS Typhon is accurate to how it was designed in Star Trek Invasion. Yea its blocky, but it was built as a Carrier for that game.
I was saving up to see what this year's anniversary bundle would be at the end of the year, and get that, if it was finally all Klingon ships, the T6 Dysons, or a Mudd bundle, but looks like I'm getting these instead. Guess this'll finally get me to play my temporal recruit and finish up their quests.
Will try again tomorrow. And else I guess I'm going to wait until I get my event C-store tokens.
Two Enterprise-F's with one console, additional fighters with the trait of another ship...
It's just a pity that the Premonition cannot be customised. And its trait seems pretty much useless.
Cool video.
Question though: why wasn't a playable fusion cube included in this bundle?
I can use a Vanity shield to remove the Red effect but the shape is still kind of ugly, that being said i am still getting my favorite ship but still a new skin would be nice.
Well it was designed based on the model used from Dominion Wars, which had a red stripe deflector.
Who knows, maybe they'll release a legendary variant with a normal deflector a year from now.
* Cough * Inquiry * cough*
The ship, overall, looks amazing. And I don't really look at my own ships from the front anyway. Most of the time, while playing, you'll be looking at it from behind and above it.
This is also why I can still call myself a Vesta fan. xD That's another ship that looks great overall, even though there aren't really any perfect deflector options (with good hull ones in this case) there.
But that thing... It has a weird angle and it looks more like a strange handle in case some huge Cosmozoan needs to grab it, while it's flying in space, to throw it away or something like that.
Blasphemy, the Typhon is amazing.
That's the most defining feature of the ship (without you can very nearly kitbash this ship 1:1 with Sovereign and Archon) and modeling it without comes at a real cost to dev time (rigging the option, modeling the gaps, designing what you model, and adjusting textures). Ultimately Cryptic prioritizes authenticity and needs to make priority calls on niceties. This falls in the same category as someone wanting to remove the Chekov's/Springfield's mission pod. Would be nice, but it's hard to say more than that (reasonably).
PS. It's also the temporal drive of the ship (see. being an integral design facet setting the character of the ship), not a warp nacelle. The *Premonition* isn't just a funky Sovy.
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!
The extended hanger bay is a must for carrier captains though so I'll be picking that ship up on console release. I just really wish they had made the valor class Fighter default on in. It's a real shame when pets like the Kodai and Valor can only be accessed with the bundle...
I prefer the design of the mk1 over the mk2 so I'm not sure they warrant me forking out for the bundle, mk2s seem essentially the same but with torp yield 2. I'll have to wait and see what people make of them.
Final remark is just well done! The best bundle since the terran bundle. Real nostalgia hit. Interesting ships and some great work by the team (including that amazing trailer).
Ah tribble it, I'll get the bundle. You deserve it.
