Screenshots: Assault Cruiser

Assault Cruiser - Sovereign Class (Modified)

Just a few screenshots of the Assault Cruiser – Sovereign Class in its environment. Just a few of its hull parts was customized from what I was issued originally like the nacelles and pylons can’t remember what else.

Gamma Orionis Sector – First Contact Borg!

Borg Tactical Cube...... um Runnnn!

Stardate: 87775.30

Earned promoted to Rear Admiral 5, final rank. At Starfleet request the U.S.S. Omicron has been assigned to meet up with the Battle Group in the Gamma Orionis Sector – Borg territory. First contact with the Borg on patrol ran into several Borg Spheres, not too bad they were. Then ran into a large Borg Tactical Cube and was struck with terror.

Never one to run from any fight, engage the Borg!

Load “ALL” Torpedoes, engage the Borg Tactical Cube. Shields Up! OMG, where did my Deflector Shields go? What the hell happen to my Shields! We have No Shields!! What the Hell! Cmdr Kort Emergency Power to Shields. Wait a min, what the hell is happening to my Hull i’m loosing my hull right from under me and i barely got shields up. What the hell is that, Borg Cube got us in Tractor Beam. Resistance is Futile! I barely got shields, no wait shields gone….. hulls on fire from massive Plasma damage. OMG the Borg is going to get us.

Survived first contact with the Borg ......barely.

Cmdr Kort give me everything you got in Engineering. Lt Inlea Polarize that damn hull. Ens Earnest I need that Hazard Emitters back on-line NOW! Fire EVERYTHING!!

Somehow we broke that Borg Tactical Cube and prevailed. Resistance aren’t that Futile afterall. Taking on a Borg Tactical Cube alone can be real Tough!

In other news Cryptic added the the first new raid earlier in a new patch “Infection”. One of our Fleet teams managed to down the new Boss. I wont have time to do it till later on friday due to the time it takes to do it. Looking forward to it as it seems challenging due to all the people crying its too hard already.

Welcome Rear Admiral

Taking the oath promotion to Rear Admiral.

Stardate: 87764.93 Pomotion to Admiral (Rear Admiral 1)

I made promotion to Rear Admiral on Saturday. Rear Admiral Al Galo. That was as much STO as I got to play all weekend since I spend the entire weekend working. So I wasn’t able to do much else or spend time logging on to do Admiral stuff. Think i spend more time watching a few Voyager Borg series on DvD’s.

So wasn’t till today was able to finally spend the time running around picking up my new Teir 5 Ship. I got the Star Cruiser for my promotion to Admiral free ship and at the exact same time I was getting my Star Cruiser I bought me the Assault Cruiser ship as well. I then went and spent a bit of time customizing my new ships.

Modified the Star Cruiser and picked the Emissary Class and did some modifications in the advance custom layout to the hull, pylons and nacelles and liked the look of my new Emissary Star Cruiser in the end. Then modified the Assault Cruiser to get the Sovereign Class model with just a few modifications as well. In the end I liked both my new Cruisers. The Star Cruiser does look better than the Assault Cruiser, but I liked both as I want them for tactical functionality.  Does seem the higher in Teir ships you go you also get more option for bridge layout as well.

Then had to give my new ships names to get rid of the generic name the new ships come with. So far I’ve named all my Ships after Star Trek energy particles. Named my new Star Cruiser the U.S.S. Omicron and the Assault Cruiser the U.S.S. Thalaron.

Then spent the rest of time getting new some equipment and consoles for my ship with Exploration Badges and one or two things from the Exchange at a good deal. That process really took quite a while.

But after all that was able to take my new Star Ship for a spin as a new Admiral. Funny thing I really don’t feel like a Admiral. I feel more like a Captain flying around in my Ship. Admirals usually manage fleets of ships, push paper and manage fleet conflicts/politics and the big picture of fleet wars.

Cruising along to Rear Admiral 5.

Visiting Alex of Retribution over on his brand new Tactical Advanced Escort Ship a Prometheus Class. His Bridge seems bigger than my house. He’s got more ships than I can remember as well or keep up with so far. Every time I get invited over he’s got a new Ship. He’s probably the only friend I actually know atm in the game as a WoW player/blogger.

Explorations.
