Cardassians in Fleet Ops

They were actually supposed to be the new threat to the Federation, which is why they seemed more warlike in "The Last Outpost." But, they ended up being a disaster.

yup. they were hoped for, but ended up being more comical when the portal went Tsun Tsu on them. lol

I think the idea of having Cardassians as a 3rd avatar option for the Dominion would be great (if not a whole playable race). Even if like the Breen it was only a few ships like Galor and Keldon it would be great.

Any chance of this actually happening? it seems lots of other people on here want to be able to play as Cardassians.

I understand that a third faction would be too hard to balance but the third Dominion-Avatar idea is just great. The additions don't have to be too much. A handful of ships, a Dreadnought-Missile(!!!!) and some cool special abilities and avatar-boni and done.

Before anyone complains about the Dreadnought-type missile, it uses a faulty (and primitive, even by Cardassian standards) kinetic detonator that could balance out it's high power.

Speaking of the Dreadnough missile, wasn't it it called a Cardassian ATR-4107?

Yes that is right. See VOY episode "Dreadnought". It's a name given to it by the Maquis. But it sounds cooler to call it like that than its correct description or "that cruise missile thingie". Every race should be able to counter it but simply firing upon it seems a little bit cheap, or?

A simple solution for themissle is what they did in the show, where the crap detonator the Cardassians used screwed up and it just drifted into orbit.

How would you implement it into the game? "Only 1/3 missiles detonate at their destination"?

Sounds like Cardassian efficiency.
