Perhaps it should be renamed? If I had a spare 100$ I can think of better things to spend it on. 5000 chronos, dil and packs but clearly aimed at the whales.
Definitely not for me. 1 mil credits I don't need, 5000 chrons never hurt, but don't have anywhere near the value they once would have. 1,500 dil is always useful. 30 packs for a portal where I only have 8 possible 4*'s needing stars from it and there's always a chance I'll get zero golds. All for a hundred bucks. Nah.

My 8-Point STT Strategy:
1. Voyage.
2. Have fun. If something isn't fun, don't do it.
3. Only pursue characters I care about.
4. Contribute to the fleet.
5. No more spending beyond monthly cards.
6. Have fun.
7. Voyage.
8. Have fun!
I smell a whiff of desperation with this offer and all the new shuttle rentals. The game was always pay to win, but this really reminds me of that fact. And with all the recent problems with the game and the other remaining DB games being shut-down, I don't feel comfortable giving them any more of my money.
After playing for 2 years and spending a significant amount, I think I'm getting to the point where I'm probably going to be done with this game soon. I just don't feel good playing it any more.
All good things must come to an end, however, and we will soon be reaching the conclusion of our apocalyptic journey. THE WALKING DEAD: MARCH TO WAR Star Trek Timelines is shutting down on January 31, 2019.
All of us at Disruptor Beam sincerely thank you for being a part of MARCH TO WAR Star Trek Timelines. As a show of appreciation, we’ll be rewarding you with a variety of “end of days” gifts to help you survive the final months. Please watch for those via in-game mail soon!
Look at it this way - if you just migrated over from GOTA, or are a relatively new player with a whale-like bank account, this offer could absolutely jumpstart your experience and help you become competitive with more established players. So from that perspective, it's fine.
I think for $99 and ALL those packs it should come with crew slots. It is my birthday today and I briefly considered buying this for myself just because, but then I realized I'm already at 175 / 180 crew slots and the thought of getting so many new crew seems wasteful.

This. Honestly. The experience has become petty, arbitrary and spiteful. Add to it the endless uphill slog of grinding away and I'm nearing the point where even the Sunk Cost Fallacy won't be enough to keep me coming back for more.
Why not provide feedback on what kind of offer you would like to see instead? ˜Shan
@Shan
Since you asked, I'd like to see all your offers prices cut down by factor of 10. That would be the best business decision DB has ever made. In a long term, it's better to make $10 x 10 than $100 x 1 and you're losing whales fast anyway..
Oh oooh..
"Quarks Rigged slot machine"
Costs $15 you get 10 pulls of 10 (can purchase twice).
Random mix of various items drop in each pull not -limited- to crew..
(1 shuttle speed up, 4* parts, 3* crew shuttle request, supply kits, free Dabo Spin, merits, credits , chrons)
The guaranteed item drop per pull would be 5000 honor OR a legendary
(5000 honor taking the place of the 4*s that we usually Already have)
Maybe even have item beholds..
Have Convergence Day Quark as the sell image / host while your pulling.
An offer with Legendary citations or Legendary Beholds would be pretty nice. At a reasonable price point though, please: these $100 offers are strictly for the mega whales.

Sounds like your normal Monday offer is the better offer. But you still would be plundered if you bought it.

Wow Ren, that's a pretty awesome impersonation of Shan. I could almost hear her voice..
(If I'd ever actually heard it in the first place)
Well, as you are asking..
What about some less expensive legendary citations ? Like.. 4 for $20 ?
Or not this month, but next month that same great deal they had last Christmas
30x 10 packs and 6500 Dilithium for what.. $50 ?
How about good old 10x10 packs for $15 but comes with a citation OR double / triple the chances of a legendary ?
Or how about a utilities kit
2 Voyage revival tokens
5000 Honor
500 chronitons
4 shuttle boost 10x
$6.99 ?
Or how about..
A super utility kit, includes everything listed in the last one also contains
5 crew slots and
10 merit pull tokens $12 ?
I could go on..
Wow that was exactly what I would have answered. Even the price matches. Highfive I suppose?
