Yeah, don't like any of these.
I mean, I'm sure clever people could work out awesome things for them all and they're probably plenty good gamewise.
But... As they don't match any of my factions, well, I'm actually thinking of just skipping out these OP events. Paying £15 for an event with effectively 0% chance of getting a ship I actually like is a bit bleh.

Well, the Prakesh will be going in the Wife's fleet of Dominion ships and classified as such at home. Mirror universe is daft as a brush and the combos in the packs are ridiculous. Tasha yar? They could have at least saved her for the Ambassador Enterprise, assuming they're making one.
I'm keen on the ferengi ship. The thought maker is interesting.

I actually like all 5 of these ships. I was thinking of scaling back the number of OPs I play in, but now I might not I would like multiples of any of these. The Ferengi without a doubt the best, OMG FERENGI PHOTONS  whats not to love there.
I am ok with the Pakesh being mirror, I don't think I would take it in a regular OP fleet but for home games we will just house rule it prime univers. I think Tasa Yar is just a bone being thrown to the fed players that get something in every release, doesn't bother me. The only thing I don't care for is the fact that the cloaking device isn't unique, but oh well.
The Kazon is nice and its weapons will be great for the raider.
The Vulcan is a nice set and gives some a defensive boost to them. Solok is a good captain, him being a vulcan captain is no biggie. He was so stuck up about Vulcan superiority that it kinda makes sense.
I don't really think the Borg needed another ship, but hey it's better than another federation ship. The only thing that I don't like it the one borg upgrade that is a cheaper better ARTIFICIAL QUANTUM SINGULARITY, which is another  you to the Romulans. However the fact that it is unique softens the blow.

Great thing about the THOUGHT MAKER is that it doesn't specify an enemy ship so you could even use it on your own ship to prevent it from flying into an enemy arc.

The Prakesh being mirror universe is very odd. The rest look good, will try to pick them up.
Any news on what the prize ships will be for the events?
|
it's the quiet ones you have to look out for. Their the ones that change the world, the loud ones just take the credit for it. |

It is daft, although Mirror Universe is used to mean "Alternate Timeline".
Persistent rumour is that the oversized cube (albeit with a different paintjob to Santa's) is the big prize for RIF.

I think, for home, whatever mirror faction stuff comes out that we want, we can have in the appropriate rl faction.

I'm certain that the Avatar of Tomed will be a prize ship

I'm wondering if the Giant Borg Cube will be the final prize?

That does seem likely. It's the only one of the gencon ships ( iirc) we've not seen in any solicitations.

Thanks MGS. I'm now super excited for this OP event. Ferengi, Vulcan AND Kazon? I'm a happy camper. Even if they're not superamazing, I'm still happy. Wewt. Yep, really can't contain myself over here

Plus the model is partially borg just as the assimilated Enterprise is, and the only card we've seen so far is Romulan faction

What amazes me here is that I do believe this is the first time the Federation is NOT represented ANYWHERE in this release. No ship, no upgrades... nodda.
I approve of this!
