Thanks for the support and feedback! I am implementing a few changes now.

Emergency Power to shields on pets? Really? They just need to give them subnuke, attack pattern alpha and reverse shield polarity. Yikes.

From the tooltip it looks like the different types will be Scimitar, Falchion, and Tulwar. And yeah, the ships in Azure Nebula are Republic ships so the Falchion is probably what they'll be releasing.

I have no idea how they're going to fit into the game from a story standpoint. Probably stole the plans from the Tal'Shiar or something like that. Maybe the Remans know how to build them since it was really a Reman ship in the movie, not Romulan.

So if we see the drones is that to play into this being a Tal'Shiar style ship?
Or liberated from the Tal'Shiar?

OH and possible play on the ship classes as we can now see the "Falchion" class in the Azure Nebula Rescue - Scimitar, Falchion, (Another single-edged sword possibly a Cutlass?)

Definitely enjoyed - two minor bits of adjustment if you're inclined:

* Beaming onto the Theodesius, one of my officers got stuck in a console; the beam-in needs to be shifted a bit;
* The engine room was a little..."busy" all at once.

I'd so play this!

Great news, thank you for sharing.

Namaste,

Drai

I have to say well done.. and congrats too...
having seen some of the forum posts, its made it even more concrete that I have chosen the right fleet to be a family member of, and to feel relaxed in, to have fun, be myself and not to hide.

All though I am a bit quiet on chat and vent. Its made me proud to have stonewall fleet, float above my ship

Just finished it! Excellent story! Loved the snarky guy at the first and loved the ending.... Oh Shi...! :)

It was a long read and that may turn a lot of people off. The ground and space battles were cool. Your settings were awesome!

A great piece and, I would say, pretty historic entry into the annals of MMORPGs across the board. They are many games out there that would never embrace the diversity of their members in the way of STO clearly has by publicising this blog post and thus demonstrating a commitment to equality in the universe.
It amazes me that anyone could call themselves a fan of Star Trek yet be a "phobe" of any variety - it would be in completely contradiction to everything Gene and Majel Roddenberry stood for and believed.
But I am pleased to see that the response of haters out there has been relatively weak and unscientific - clearly their minds could never conceive of warp capable flight - perhaps they should be allowed to join a new faction representing those violent prehistoric types that regularly appeared on the Original Series.

Author Notes: Last night there was a break in at UESPA's base on Titan. One Efrosian was captured. UESPA has been unable to determine what they were doing there and have requested assistance from Starfleet security. Given a connection between the Efrosian and your ship, you've been assigned to assist them. Beam down to Earth Space Dock and give any assistance you can.

This is my first mission to the foundry. Sorry for any minor textual errors, was a bit excited that the foundry was back up so was typing a bit to fast! Been wanting to do this for a while to get some ideas out, and also get a few other LGBT characters into a mainstream story. Let me know what you think :).
