I think a better way to have handled the Fleet BoPs would have been to give them an extra Lt.Commander Boff slot. What makes the BoP so interesting to me is how versatile it is with its all universal slots. An extra Lt.Commander Boff would have played into that nicely. It would have allowed the BoP to kill better, heal better, or tank better - not just kill slighty better with an extra tact console. And compared to all the ships with the big shield and hull boosts, I'd say that would have been more than fair.

When I get my fleet defiant I will run it with 3 M12 purple phaser and 2 M12 purple Quantums for a nice declocking alpha strike.

I am thinking of getting my first c-store KDF ship to get the Isometric console - how does the ship(Vor'cha Battle Cruiser Refit )- console perform?

It would be the carrier of small crafts given that it's big enough for a shuttlebay with a good three shuttles in it... and is bigger than a BoP or Jem'Hadar attack ship and a bit smaller than a Defiant.

That's literally how big the Odyssey is, that the Aquarius itself should be a mid-range sized escort by comparison.

I thought one of our Fleet Battle cruisers had 5 of console type arraingement?

Regardless I feel the fleet Somraw deserves a 5th tactical console.


Decloak fire crap it didnt die oh S#%&T BOOM respawn?

Actually, if memory serves, the fleet Ning'tao does have another Lt. Cmdr slot, at the cost of having spit for hull and shields.

It's a good console, but you need at least one of the following:

1. Maxed out Particle Generators skill (and if you want, particle gen consoles)
2. Tactical officer buffs.
3. Multiple enemies, especially clustered together.

Also the Vor'kang itself, as a ship, isn't bad either.

The Fleet Norgh/Ning'tao is pretty much suited for just that. The extra LTC console will help with shield tanking, but that low hull will definitely hurt it. It's basically meant for quick diving in and out of action, hopefully without everyone unleashing an alpha on you at once. . .just like the Hegh'ta and the Fleet Hoh'sus (which will do it just as well, if not better) are really gonna be used.

The Somraw is apparently a worthy buy, if you've got dilithium to throw around. That's what we'll have to use to really try matching the Fed fleet escorts. Tor'kaht, as well.

HMM, I actually like the Somraw the way it is *runs for cover*, perhaps a Fleet Quin will get such a setup.

That's something I can do with a T3 BoP with the same look just as well.
It's just a lot cheaper.

[quote] I like the Fleet Somraw as well, though a 5th tactical console slot would only make it better.

Which ship is that? There's no Fleet Vor'Cha listed either here or here.

When you think about it, Cryptic gives a pretty obvious hint that the ratio of content of Fed vs KDF is 2:1

5-tac console fleet ships? 2:1
Mirror ships? 2:1
Story missions? Let's not go there... I'm just going to say at least 2:1

So... yeah. The KDF should get another 5 tac console fleet ship.
