Who else thinks that the special reward at the end of this series will be a Romulan Bridge Officer?

:cool:

    With the current shuttle fetish I'm more inclined to believe it's a Romulan shuttle or Scorpion fighter.

    Only if we have the option to choose between male and female. Other than that. No thanks. I heard they are planning on working on Series 4 soon. Maybe a Boff for that. But yeah. Choice on gender.

    Probably a Romulan cat or something

    They love dishing out pets here, there and everywhere...

    But i hope it's a Romulan BO or a Thaleron torpedo launcher

    I don't think so, doubt they'd reuse reward "types" this soon.

    Those new Romulan uniforms are AWESOME though. I need me a cape like that.

    They said they were saving those scorpion fighters for a future romulon faction

    I'd love a romulon or reman BO though

    I don't think its one of the following:
    BOFF, we just had that with the breen.
    Thelaron weapon, they are banned and outlawed remeber? Would not make sense plotwise.
    Romulan cloaking device, can't see this since it would be utterly useless on a klingon ship, and the final reward should be useable by everyone. so i don't see this happening.

    Stuff i can see as reward:
    Scorpion fighter "shuttle"
    Romulan uniform, a honor grant for saving the empire or so.
    Some borg enhanced romulan piece of ship equipment.

    I'm just gonna throw this out here...

    The Ambassador Class.

    Dan has been teasing us about it in interviews re: its fate. And we know the Romulans have it.

    We know its going to figure in to a featured episode, so either: its showing up in the next 3 weeks, or we're getting ANOTHER featured episode related to the Romulans soon.

    Either one is awesome, so its Win-Win :D

    There is a special Romulan shuttle in the Foundry ship list at the moment which I haven't seen in game, and also a blank Romulan ship in the list of Federation and Klingon player ships in the contact editor menu. It's a distinct possibility.

    I'd much prefer a Romulan BO though, I've got more BO space than ship space.

    Judging by this, and dstahl' s excitement about the reward in another post, im gonna say tier 5 romulan prototype ship (aka new romulan design) with special weapon ability, built in highyield plasma volley torpedo launcher. Ohhhh I can only hope... and no BO, I got enough of them already.

    The Romulan models do look very good so I think a Romulan Officer is very much on the cards.

    I dont think it would be a reward as valuable as a full starship, given the nature of the previous episode rewards. Plus it would preferably be something thats not level specific, since the series is playable by any rank.

    We've had weapons, tribbles, a breen boff and useable items for rewards. Im betting it will be none of these.

    Stormy also mentioned in another thread that the reward would be pretty awesome...and i think it was in the context of a gameplay affecting item.

    Im stumped.

    I'm getting a very strong vibe towards a Romulan cat BRIDGE OFFICER.

    They mentioned Targ BOs being in discussion. I can see them holding off to save the surprise of this series.

    The way they mentioned Warrigul's being tamable reminds me of the way they foreshadowed the Breen BOs.

    It's actually seen in the intro video. When they show blown up Romulus there's one flying by.

    I think there's a good chance that future race additions will require the Duty Officer system to unlock. They seem really keen on adding more BO-only races that people will have to promote into playable characters. I think if they sell anything, it will be a BO you can promote rather than a straight up race unlock.

    Theres no way their handing that out for free(as a series reward). You'll either have to purchase it from the C store or spend a butt load of emblems on it. Of course, their counting on people who dont want to do the work to get the emblems paying them cash.

    Maybe, who knows? He said "Once you find out the fate of the Enterprise C, the Ambassador is unlocked in ship requisitions" which seems an odd way to phrase it. Especially since in the past they hinted it might not be a Tier5 ship.

    It seems a stretch, but he mentioned it in 2 different interviews in the last week, and it seems weird that we'd have another Romulan features series again soon.

    If thats the case, then it will probably be like the Excelsior, with a low tier version you can get from ship requisitions, and the T5 version for sale in the C store or for 500 emblems.

    Yeah, i´m sure that would be fun. I can almost smell the epic rage that would cause. Highly unlikely. :eek:

    Makes sense to me.


    A cloak console would be epic and win and epicly win-some.

    Of course the KDF crew would set the forums on fire with the rants.. so I dunno.

    On a side note, if you have to get the ship from requisitions(like you mentioned), how is that a series reward(like this thread mentions)? Do you think we'll get a credit to buy it for free?

    Don't cry. :)

    Giving the player a special token to trade for a free Ambassador at Ship Req's would be simple coding. Nagus' suggestion is actually quite good and makes your assumption work.

    Well, it works, but for one glaring problem - I doubt that the Klingons would get an Ambassador class.

    Actually...wild thought....

    We know that Tasha Yar went back in time with the enterprise C to defend the klingon base from Romulans. We also know she was captured and eventually fathered a romulan daughter which later threatened Picard and the Enterprise.

    It is possbile the Enterprise C could be found in the Vault (along with the Borg sphere).

    We also recently got several TOS items as episode rewards and Cryptic loves to dish out TOS stuff.

    All of that leads me to believe that it may very well be a TOS interior that will be released as the series reward.

    I believe a Dev even posted a pic of a TOS interior for us to look at.

    You make an excellent point.

    Clearly, if this were the case, then the Klingons would get a new ship as well. As for what that ship could be, well, your guess is as good as mine.
