Introduction of some Fan Favourite Units

posted on May 23rd, 2011, 11:36 am

Was just wondering if there are any future plans to re-introduce the Romulan Raptor from the stoc A1 and A2 games, as I have always personally been a fan of that design.

Also have there been any thought on introducing the Dominion Strike Cruiser from the Dominion War game, which is also availabe for stock A2 by Achilles. I am rather fond of that design and would be nice to have a multipurpose decent ship for the Dominion in the first yard as I find the B8's are really the only good early game ship for the Dominion until you can get B5's and V13's.

The Raptor is planned for the future:
Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations - Is the Generix actually the Raptor?

About the Dominion Strike cruiser: unless i am mistaken that design is already in FO as the Dominion bomber.

Edit: I can't type today..

*has a look*
No, that's a different design.

Yep, some of the A1 and A2 classics are planned for future patches

I hope so, the Jach'Eng was a fun little ship. Practically useless and a waste of resources, but a fun waste of resources.

Wasn't that the Klingon flying bomb?

Yep, the incredibly fragile, single direction bomb that was as bloody hard to get the target alive.

hahahaha your crazy is cost 2000 dil and 1000 tri in a1 and a2 and it could take out a fleet or a base worth 2 or 3 times that. It was one of the most cost effective ships ever, during online play this ship would have caused some serious arguements (if it even had a online following).

It could take out a decent number of ships if it hit and almost never gets there thanks to a pathetically fragile hull. Weapons mean nothing unless you can fire them.

Worthless ship, fun to use.

Dominion early game addition (20%)
A new Dominion baseline vessel

Well, there are two possibilites but, one could only hope though.

I liked the Romulan Shadow...

Shadow looks cool, but too much like the mogai.  I get the feeling it is getting ready to pop out some construction drones or something.

You probably feel that because of the Mogai Class.

I wonder how the Shadow became the rather clumsy-looking FO Constructor?
