Think up your new Avatar bonuses that you would like to see in game, either for the current avatars, or a new one!

Taq'roja:

Instead of having torpedoes on the brel and K'vort when there are three dedicated torpedo vessels within easy reach with her avatar, I was thinking about how Taq'roja would have romulan influences, since the House of Duras has always been buddy buddy with those pointy-eared tricksters.  Instead of the torpedo, give the brel and k'vort the Romulan racial speed bonus/penalty.  So these ships will gain a 30% attack bonus, with each volley losing 10% until it goes to a penalty of -10%.  So basically what the Romulans have now.

That would make her a better "Pirate Raider" like she's supposed to be, using sneak attacks and the like.  And as mentioned, it fits with her likely Romulan ties.  Because some things never change in the Trek Universe.


For the Romulans:  A new Avatar could have certain vessels not receive the attack penalty.


Some general bonuses that haven't been introduced yet:

Support vessels of race X require less experience to rank up.

Avatar bonus that gives a slow, but steady rate of supply.  For example, one supply per minute.  So 60 supply in a one hour game.  Possibly upping that to once every 30 seconds, or 120 supply per hour.

Sensor range of certain units is vastly increased, or all units of a certain yard gain a sensor increase.

Sensor scan:  This Avatar is paranoid, and will perform random sensor scans (Not player controlled)on the map. Similar perhaps to the hyperspace sensor's ability, it will scan a part of the map, even revealing map shroud.



Ok, I want to hear your ideas on what other cool things we could introduce to Fleet Operations!

Any new Breen ship for the Breen avatar, naturally. I'd love to see the Warship model from A1 remade for FO. That or maybe a smaller faster Breen ship of some sort.

More fighter craft would be awesome too... especially after this last patch. Maybe Puretech could have access to hangar bays on stations or something.

Very cool ideas, Mal .


  I'll turn on the brain mechanics and start thinking .

for the klinks, an avatar with 3 second cloaks for some or all ships, but weaker ships. sounds taqroja, but could be for another sneaky avatar.

I hope they use the remade A1-warship model later for the current Breen battleship. However I'd like to see a Breen scout instead of the A-4 for the Breen Avatar or a support-ship that's specialized in debuffing enemies.

I really want to see one avatar specific ship with the Caneverals old sensor probe ability, that was so cool, but I think it should be even rarer than it was, so maybe an avatar specific officer ability or something.

It is rarer; only the Romulan Mixed-Tech has it.

Wow completely forgot about that. Bit silly that Fed-tech is only for rommies allied with Feds though :/

posted on December 5th, 2010, 5:15 pm

Well, Feds allied with Rommies. It's the mixed Canaveral that has it.

For Romulans: a speed bonus in addition to the rate of fire bonus.  A ship that hasn't fired gets +15% speed, then as its rate of fire goes 30-20-10-0-(-10) the speed bonus goes 15-10-5-0-(-5).  Maybe make the final bonus -10% to balance it.

or for Romulans: Tavara veteran-point cost reduced to 0 (or 5, 10, 12)  An avatar that focuses on just Tavaras 

For Feds: Emergency repair teams.  A ship with damaged life support loses crew slower than normal.

Oh sorry misunderstood.

I think your idea is better to be honest. The A1 Breen Warship should be the battleship, and the current Breen battleship model should be the cruiser (since it was established in DS9 that the Breen ship was only a bit larger then the Defiant)

I'd still vote for building some ships on rank 2. Since cheaper ships would need more odfs, it would be cool to build ranked ships. For example ranked Generix' for Helev and Warbirds for Mijural .

More boarding for Martok! Give him higher crew compliments and stronger crew, hehe.
On the other hand give the torps of Martoks Starbase and KBQ to TaQ'roja, she would be really a torp fanatic then  :guns:;).

For Feds: Galaxy separation, Ambassador separation and mixed-tech-Vor'cha separation

Oh and one thing for Dominion: Cardassians anyone?

Another idea.  One avatar gives pulses and torpedoes used against it's ships less effective by 5% (5% of the overall bonus over beams, not 5% off the top.)

Also, Perhaps another klingon avatar can give a bonus to brels and kvorts that slightly increases their range, increasing them from 400 to 500 (this would put it in between short range and medium).  It would still be considered short range, and the idea is that the weapons are attuned to increase their effective range, but they do slightly less damage because of it.

Another idea is that an avatar can add new specials instead of new ships.  So Admiral Douglas of starfleet could grant Akiras a special that fires 90 torpedoes over 8 seconds, instead of defensive patterns.  No wait, make that 105 torpedoes.
