Thanks for adding this after the chance to get that awful Worf from the event was long past. But while on the subject, what did Worf ever do to you all that he has no good versions in this game? I know there isn't much you can do with CMD/DIP/SEC, but come on.

Point 2.) Everyone suspected the AoS set was coming for weeks and it was basically confirmed when they put out the AoS Troi announcement.
Point 3.) There are a couple of good versions of Worf. Governor Worf is quite good and this AoS Worf isn't half bad either.
2) Everyone always suspects new collections. If we got even a tenth of the "suspected" collections, we'd be up to our ears in them.
3) The best Worf variant is only half-good. Which is to say, not at all. Especially for established rosters.
I really don't think anyone was really surprised to see the AoS collection. Governor Worf is tier 3, my roster is pretty well established, but I certainly wouldn't mind having him on my list. AoS Worf is tier 4. And if you are surprised at DB shamelessly raking in cash, it makes me wonder where you have been these last three years.
Just checking out your collection with the handy link in your signature. You are right, this is a dead-end conversation. You barely have any experience with good crew. I'll let you laugh maniacally by yourself now.
edit: PS and as someone who actually does have an established roster, I can tell you with more certainty than you have any credibility to dispute that there are some decent Worf varients.
Gosh, looking at this post and others made by you today: You are a real Eeyore aren't ya? Maybe Pooh will give you some of his honey ....
(Sorry, I couldn't find a Klingon Eeyore .... ) LOL

After this week, there will be no way to get AoS Worf or Troi. And since there's a collection featuring them now, its pretty much a given that a Portal update is coming in the future.
Edit: Nevermind, Buck Bokai is coughing LOUDLY over there..
Ha!!! Remember a little while ago when I said wait for it.......? Here is the moment I was talking about
DB, thanks for the collection and keeping collections alive, as @robownage said. (Also, thank you for contributing to the thread in a meaningful way.)
I think DB missed an opportunity to give more interesting rewards than the usual chronitons, small amount of honor, credits and a pull at the end. The suggestion for AoS Picard was pretty cool. A voyage revival token would have been nice. You know... just a change of pace.
Sorry if I'm looking a gift horse in the mouth. I really am quite happy to get the collection.
And I guess I can't resist the bait... I'll spoiler it for all those who find the previous conversation as petty as I do.
😺🖖👍🖖😺
The holodeck collection has almost double the crew as the AOS one. The rewards are in line with similar collections, like Big Goodbye or Our Man Bashir. If/when additional tiers are added, I could see them adding an avatar in keeping with Proton and Niners. I'd like a funny hat.

Retired 12-14-20. So long, and thanks for all the cat pics!
Disclosure: comments as someone that is currently missing 12 stars on the 5* crew (3 of those will be finished via campaign) and thus is nowhere near collecting all the prizes. I need game goals after all.
Yes, Thanks DB for another collection! Stuff like this, big or small, is *always* welcome because it shows our little 4 year old game is still alive and kicking!
As an aside, everyone has different gameplay styles, interests, favorite captains (Pike, fight me) and ways Trek has personally impacted their lives. Likewise, everyone is absolutely entitled to their opinions.
From a 'well seasoned' point of view, I have 847/850 available crew and I can tell you Gov. Worf has made many voyages/shuttles and AoS Worf will do so as well. Even right now with the Mega faction looming, I only have 170 active crew on my account. Those two will remain weeks after this Mega is over and many more are frozen.
*Edit* A Klingon collection would only have 3 more characters in it than the To Boldly Go collection does currently. People have been asking for that for as long as collections have existed. Something along those lines doesn’t seem all that out of line to me.
Making the collection reward be a 4* Picard would have been interesting. Although I can't imagine freezing all those 5* crew for the sake of a 4/4 would be worth it.
Or if the reward was limited to a 1/5 for freezing everyone, and then you needed to use citations for the rest.
An interesting line of thinking. My only answer is to suggest that, as @adonibyte. says, it's not that difficult and it's mostly a recognition to some spenders that their collection is noteworthy. And the return on investment is probably worth it.
Where do you come up with the premise that there are no good versions of Worf in this game, or that his AoS character is awful? I guess I am looking for a little more information... As Frank pointed out, I see him being useful on voyages (and as bonus crew in later events).
Imho, it wasn’t a leap of logic that this collection would be added, just as it is not difficult to surmise that AoS Picard will find his way into the collection at some point.
I will say the timing of the collection addition could have been better. But, I welcome something to collect in a game built on collecting.
I'd have preferred more regular updates to the crew rewards in the portal and a new gauntlet exclusive personally, which also shouldn't take much work.
But thank you @Shan for the new collection - its great to see that there are still some small additions from time to time.
I’m glad it’s not consistent, or there may have been some monstrous 23rd century thing in the Originals collections, or Lucille may not have existed. Some days you wake up and find a 3* Sisko in your achievements or a 5* Q in a new story chapter for little discernible reason, that can only built with citations. I’m not sure it’s the size or scope that matters, but the Devs whims that day. I do like your AoS hat avatar idea, that would be a neat gift for when Picard shows up.
Yea I agree with @SoupKitchen Riker Not sure why the OP believes Worf has no good variants. If thats the case then Riker would be even worse. For CMD and SEC Governor Worf and Age of Sail Worf are pretty strong cards. They aren't mind blowing but pretty strong
As to no good versions in the game. For purples Sheriff Worf and Ba'Ku Worf are very good bonus crew purples.
And as others have mentioned AOS and Governor Worf are very respectable if not good versions of him.
I think a bigger "travesty" is that someone of Odo's rapport for security, has no decent security variant (unless you count blue rarity cards for what they are) but that's probably a separate debate.
1. Not really fussed about the rewards, I like to aim to complete them no matter what reward is given really.
2. Nice to see that the collection is not "set in stone" and that over time DB can still add in the "missing" crew ... I have never seen the episode so no idea who that would be, except for the oft mentioned Picard.
3. The crew in this collection are not the absolute worst to throw citations onto (Worf good, Data decent, Riker average and Crusher, though past her prime is not that bad) ... compare with the Niners collection, ouch, or Chaotica or Western ... so that's a good bit of incentive to work on it.
On a personal front, I'm super pleased this was the collection, as later today I'll pick up the missing crew (Troi) and by end next week I should have 4 or 5 immortalised (La Forge and Crusher already immortalised, Data on his way, Troi too and Riker and Worf at 1/5 ... with Honor for 4 citations by that time) ... the only downside is that I was planning on citing up Bashir and Garak, after mega event pack pulls, to complete that collection ... ah well, first world problems.
