Thanks SO MUCH for all your support, and we'll see you in-game!
I think the Klingon combos are a lot more deadly. The Fed consoles are very situational. The Photonic Displacer should be the most interesting one.
I am curious if this will affect the quad cannons or if they'll be the odd one out as the one C-Store ship item still locked to a class. They might become worthwhile on an offensive science ship with enough turnrate to take advantage of them. (Which I think would be fair. As-is, most escorts have better options.)
The Transwarp Computer from the T3 Excelsior might be the best use an Escort could get out of a Science slot with its +7.6 efficiency to all systems.
they said consoles. the Quadcannons are not a console, but a weapontype.

Hm from my experiance the Transwarp Computer only adds 1 point of extra power to systems set low, still it is something to put in the oft unused sci slots on escorts.
Other consoles, provide a stat boost as well as the clicky. The Tachyon Detection field, for example, increases sensors by 23, as opposed to the +18 from a Mk XI Rare sensor console. As a Sci Captain in a cruise with that console sitting on another ship, I'd be daft not to put it on my cruiser, and I get a free clickable power to boot.
I'll admit I'm more concerned about some KDF combinations, like I said in the OP, Theta Radation is pretty broken as is, the playing field could be drastically changed if their options increase. Mind you, could go the feds way, depends how certain combinations work out.
How is causing chaos a good selling point? Just curious. A gal x with saucer seperation and dual heavy cannons, with a lance to boot? Id toss in the quad cannons but they are kinda meh. Throw in antimatter spread and impulse boost etc ..... Could get into nasty territory real fast, like warp speed fast.

I don't think you actually read this. None of the Tier 5 consoles are being updated in this manner; IE: No Saucer Separation on anything but the Exploration Cruiser Retrofit, no Tachyon Detection Grid on anything but the Advanced research Science Retrofit, etc.

cept for them releasing pics of the saucer sep on a galaxy X, so ill doubt it will end where you think it will. Considering their business actions to me this just looks like a Pay for power grab. Take away the restrictions so F2P people will buy more ships just to stack lots of consoles onto one, cryptic seems to care little for balance now.
But hell i suppose if you wanna go down in flames why use gas when you can use jetfuel right!? *My opinion*
