# 1 Regent Class 9 Consoles?
08-14-2012, 11:29 PM
Are you serious Cryptic? $25.00 for a ship with a bad console, questionable torpedo system that we know nothing about and only 9 consoles is CLEARLY a ripoff. It need to to be 4/4/2 not this crap of 4/3/2.

We get the sovereign with same mechanics, new skin, a console that is more than likely going to be very bad considering how most are and unknown torpedo launcher we know nothing of the mechanics about. Sorry but this needs to be changed. No one is going to buy this ship except to park it in the hangar bay.

It offers ZERO incentive to buy for except to waste money.

Great going Al Rivera.

As far as I'm aware, ALL of the C-store T5 ships have "just" 9 consoles. Only the Fleet versions have 10. And they cost between 2000 and 2500 zen.

Does this mean you think all the C-store ships are a ripoff? Actually, don't answer that last question.

Dude, are you serious?

There is exactly one type of ship that gets 10 consoles from the C-Store, and those are the flagships. For each and every other ship, you need to get a Fleet version if you want 10 console slots.

That's not complicated, no?

On top of this, we'll almost certainly be seeing the return of the Fleet Assault Cruiser with this ship, since the one briefly on Tribble had the same boff setup as this one. This would put it in the same place as the Prometheus - free tier 5 version, C-store tier 5 version, fleet tier 5 version.

What you are complaining about doesn't make any sense - it is the exact same as every other C-store ship that isn't a fleet variant or a bought-oddy. Same number of consoles, same price range.

But don't let facts stop you from raging.

The console is essentially a free Eject Warp Plasma or Theta Radiation Vent ability, with the unique aspect that we need to manually denonate it to deal the most damage. Sorta like being in the Briar Patch

As for the torpedo, it works exactly as it's described: it has a 180 firing arc instead of the standard 90. But you can only have one at a time on any ship. Other than that, nothing special as far as we know.

And yeah, the Regent class is exactly the same as most other C-Store ships: 9 consoles and a added console ability. Only the flagships and Fleet ships are above this Tier, by statistics... so it seems you have the wrong idea.

Welcome to exactly how every person who bought the Armitage a week before the Fleet Ship info was up felt the day they announced the Fleet Armitage.

So you really think no one is going to buy a Cruiser with a Lt. Commander Tactical BOff Station and a Universal Lieutenant?


Yeah, good luck with that theory. This will sell plenty. And as observed, the only CStore ship with more an 9 Consoles are the Oddy & Bortas. People bought the HEC with 'only' 9 Consoles on it.

I'm baffled why people thought this ship would have 9 consoles, in the C-store ship lineup only the Ody/Bortas have 10 consoles - no ships after that were given 10 whether they had consoles or not.
