It would be nice if we get Penguin Garak as the Monday offer. It would give me more incentive to get to 400k vp to add a star, instead of another 1/5 in my collection. 🤷
I don't know why everyone assumes that one Year of Hell episode crew means that the Month of Hell Mega is beginning. Not all 5* crew in a Mega event are even tied to the event theme (I'm looking at you Dress Officer Scotty during the Discovery/Andorian event).
Also "Month of Hell" doesn't necessarily mean it will be based on the Year Of Hell episode specifically. It could just be 4 weeks of all Neelix variants. That would truly be hell

Except the survey they did directly stated the option was inspired by voyager's 2 part episode
One question though wasn't the month of hell supposed to be a later mega event not the next mega......
Yes Month of Hell is LATER THIS year they said
Hold on, let me run it through my DB translator...
*beep* *boop* *beep* *beep*
English: "Later this year"
DB-ese: "Next week"
Let me do one more, just to check if it's accurate...
*beep* *boop* *beep* *beep*
English: "Soon"
DB-ese: "Pretty much never"
Yep, works like a charm.
Admiral of the Haus of GaghGagh, Starbase level 94, we are not accepting members at this time.
Captain of the voyage vessels: Queen of Bashir, Landsknecht, and Sunspear, the first luxury starship cruiseliners.
Amenities include wifi, fully-functioning holodecks, a full-service bar, 3 party decks, a Trill spa, and a business centre.
Fun fact: The ships are propelled by bouncy castle technology.
Again romulan kirk...like jadzia 1701, those characters are given over and over again. What is the point? There are numerous other characters which didn't saw an event ever!

Kinda the point of a re-run event ... all three original crew have been part of an event before ...
I'm hoping they keep Augment Riker in Thresholds, if only because I have him at 1* and would like to finish him.
I hope so too,because I've finished him, but have recently airlocked eyeshadow kirk twice in the past two months, and would much rather get him 4/4 out of the box
It could be a time-travel mega event, with the Red Angel as the recurring legendary and new character versions from different Star Trek shows.
I'm so mad at Discovery right now. Hey, we've got this Red Angel, appearing all over the quadrant, super advanced future technology, limitless abilities! Oh, no, actually Section 31 whipped it up decades ago from spare parts. Abandoned project, time crystals, no big deal. What a crock of sh...

Agreed wholeheartedly. The last episode made no sense. But with any show mysteries are always better than the answers to the mysteries. Each episode that continues a mystery adds more and more to the lore of the mystery such that nothing can possibly completely explain the mystery or make much logical sense.
It felt to me that they wanted the Red Angel to be some sort of temporal agent from the future like Daniels in Enterprise but after much of the shows and plots had been done they made a last minute change feeling that people did not want another temporal cold war after the Enterprise cold war plot was just abandoned.

My biggest problem with Enterprise was that they recycled plots from the earlier shows, but in this case they also happened to be ret-conning history with advanced technology or aliens (which would be conveniently forgotten). Which I don't necessarily have a problem with if it's done well. 1966 couldn't have imagined we'd have touch screens and iPhones already by 2019 that do what ours can, and I'm sure in 50 years the vision of the future will be even more different. I was more turned off by the lack of originality. Actually, I thought they were starting to solve that problem in the 3rd and 4th seasons, until boom, canceled. But...
To that end, the whole "rogue AI" storyline this season was a good one! Sure, it's been done to death in Sci-Fi, but not in Star Trek. In fact, last season I noticed that Star Trek Discovery's computer interaction almost let the computer show preferences and opinions, sort of a "personality," which was very original. So when they pursued this story, I was enthralled. The Airiam plot was great, if rushed. But suddenly no, it's all about effing Burnham again, and of course my original argument about the Red Angel suit. Ugh.
This season also did that with the Mycelial network. "A pathway connecting the universe, like nerves in a human body!" Oh, actually no, it's just a field where a bunch of little creatures live, and we can somehow breathe there. No big deal."

Yes again we are in agreement.
It is poor to tie everything to just one character whoever that character is. It makes everyone else on the ship superfluous. Like that obnoxious cbs show the Mentalist where the main character solved everything while everyone else was just dumb and not doing anything. I would not have tied the mystery to Burnham. She is already the main character and her family is all over the series. I would have made the Red Angel Dr. Culber as he is likely leaving the show and he is made of spores that could give him powerful ablities. I do not see how an old suit could do all the things Red Angel did to save the Kelpiens and all the other things it did

I've gotten in trouble for saying this on here in the past, and I'll probably get railed again, but...
Star Trek Discovery is different from past Star Trek shows in that, let's face it, there's a lot of "Space Magic" going on. Every time they try to include real physics, it backfires on them. Previous Star Trek shows were technobabble nonsense, OF COURSE, but they TRIED to ground it in some sort of realistic concept. Time crystals might as well be Star Wars level Kyber Crystals. Saru's people are two steps removed from using The Force. Kidding, but sorta not.
This Red Angel suit was basically the future equivalent of the God Mode cheat in a video game. I mean think about it. A self-contained STARSHIP that travels through space, enters atmosphere, can transport LARGE groups of people instantly from Earth to the BETA quadrant, and can apparently revive Burnham from death. It's a magic suit. And now we're led to believe that 22nd century Section 31 just whipped it up and abandoned the project because, I assume, they had much better things going on. EDIT: Yes, I realize the two main architects of the suit, Burnham's parents, died. But it's not feasible to imagine such a project would be abandoned if it was so powerful. Especially not by Section 31, victory at all costs.

Yes agreed. Discovery is not grounded in science as much as the other series.
The red angel suit feels a lot like the romulan stealth ship in Enterprise. It had super technology way too advanced that was then abandoned and not seen again in future romulan ships which makes no sense. I would try to emulate TNG or DS9 rather than going back to the Enterprise well. I think one problem with this season of Discovery is that they have to introduce more and more Section 31 stuff and make them critical to the season to push the Section 31 series. The writers got a little too caught up in Section 31. This is Discovery not the Section 31 show. Do not make Section 31 the main character. We have only had the first half of the reveal with Red Angel so I am hoping that the further reveal will make more sense. Maybe the Suit just allowed time travel and with that the Red Angel went to the future and got everything else tech-wise from there. It may be that with the deaths of Burnham's parents no one else could make another suit and the time crytstal necessary for further suits was too difficult or rare to obtain so the project was abandoned.
I'm down for another star on Garak. Thinking I'll share Augment Riker with my squadron rather than Romulan Kirk. There were plenty of ENG slots in the event's first run, and while there were also plenty of DIP, I expect my squadron will be heavier on DIP bonus crew.
Any tips on how to improve my shuttle mission events? I only have 3 and I’m lame at these events.
Use the ramp-up strategy, and just run as many shuttles as you can. The most important thing I learned was to not be discouraged by the calculated success chances or even by shuttle failures. You can have a wave of 94% successes all fail, and another wave of 6% successes all come through. Just keep sendin' 'em out.
Any tips on how to improve my shuttle mission events? I only have 3 and I’m lame at these events.
Set alarms, send your shuttles every 3 hours(or less if using boosts). Don't let your shuttles sit idle waiting for you to claim them.
And I'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet, but get a 4th shuttle. That will add 30% to your score right there. If you're on a monthly card save the DIL until you can buy the shuttle. If you're F2P, save your achievement DIL until you have enough DIL too. I know it seems like a lot of DIL, but it's the biggest improvement you can make and the best investment you can make with DIL in this game.

You can have a wave of 94% successes all fail, and another wave of 6% successes all come through. Just keep sendin' 'em out.
And keep getting 4/4 crew in galaxy events and 4/5 crew in month events and lvl them up. The better your crew the better your shuttles and voyages.
Collect and keep Shuttle boosts, bank on the 2x Thursday Cadet missions. Save them for events.
