Adding an Avatar (for Fed)

Gamer, I think you would need some downside to that Avatar, it's got everything atm. A 60% speed increase for all those ships would be crazy, especially for the Excelsior 2 with it's long range. Maybe 10% speed boost to all short ranged ships?

I don't think Federation ships are slow either. Saber is faster than most other races ships even without hyper-impulse.

Photoshopped. He's actually standing in Atlantis talking to Elizabeth Wier in that photo originally.

Ah. Silly me...

lol, no worries, I wish he really had been in Star Trek.

Some progress for the new avatar, I'm working on getting the stations set up at the moment. There's only 6 stations for him not counting the mixed tech yards, which I might do away with in favor of another station that'll warp in alternate re-inforcements (ie maybe 2 ships at a time, selecting from various Klingon or Romulan vessels). (Outpost, Storage Dock, Long Range Communications Array, Starfleet Science, Sector Headquarters and Defense Platform)

ps: Again I apologize for the large image size, it's my default screen resolution.

Hey guys, I need help. First of all, I'm trying to come up with an avatar. But first I need one thing that I can't seem to get. I need an image of a Fleet Admiral's Uniform (DS9 and forward). Just an empty Uniform that I could photoshop with. I'd Prefer at least a reselution of 800 x 800 (if not close). I don't need any background, just the uniform. I'm planing on making an advatar but I need the uniform. Can you guys help me?

The UFP has 154 member races, a thousand colonies of those races, and proctectorates and wards. But all the avatars you guys are suggesting are human?  I say we make a little variety to this. The Romulans, Klingons and Borg will all have mono-race avatars, lets at least have the feds with some variety.

I agree Hawkshark: enough with the hegemony of humans!

I think a Vulcan would be too trope, im more for a Zakdorn, with a strategic advantage... or a Betazoid with an intel advantage... I also happen to think that all the avatars need to be more distinct from eachother.

I think I may have made an avatar, I can't get an image, so you guys make it. I've got his history profile here, I tried to integrate it as much as I could with the show. But at the same time I put something new in there. If some dates are off please tell me.

Oh noes, radiation mutant who lives forever? Aren't we, you know, a little cliched here?

Still, a nice story, but I think a bit over-the-top ...and once again, a human

Not Eactly, if you paid attention it mentioned exact classification undetermined, which means he could classify as a different species. But he was originally human, Though you could say his mother was Betazed and that would change it wouldn't it? How about that, having his mother a betazed! But he wouldn't be telepathic, so that basically makes him more human like. But remember, he could be a new species becasue of:

1] Accelerated Brain growth
2] Accelerated healing capability
3] Not aging...

Those right there are enough to classify him other wise, but if you say he's human, than so be it. Like you said, another human, but you should remember that about 70% of the Admirals are human! So, why be so prejudice if you know that so many are human?

Well, it depends: can he reproduce with another human? Those traits aren't enough to affect what species he is unless they affect his reproductive capabilities. Afterall, odds are you have a different IQ than I do, you might have different numbers of toes and teeth, but you are the same species as me... Vulcan of course! 

The reason I was bringing it up, was that we have all human Admirals now: a little diversity would be nice

Let the Devs Decide on this then, after all, they know best. But the question is... game attributes?

How about this...

Avatar: Admiral Chroanos
Avatar Bonus:
- Grants the Century Class Cruiser
- Grants the Highlander Class Battleship
- Offensive value of Eraudi vessels increased by 2
- Defensive Value of Defiant and Sovereign Classes increased by 2
- System Value of Intrepid, Akire, Defiant, and Sovereign Classes increased by 3
- Station build times reduced by 20%

That would go fine... no god ships, no super stations. Balanced (or at least my look of it)!
