    Most of the Mega Event Legendary characters have had really good stats (except you Mr. 2 Skill T'Kuvma! - yes good stats, but 2 stat characters are generally useless for me). I really like the Admiral and I'm glad she is in the game, BUT if this mega event really is focused on the Andorian / Vulcan conflict then I have to ask DB: Why is Archer not the mega event recurring character? Or Shran? This is a HUGE missed opportunity in my opinion.

    Admiral Cornwell has about much business being in a Vulcan-Andorian Mega Event as a vegan at a steak buffet. I really hope I'm wrong and this is some sort of temporal Mega Event or something else. If this is Vulcan/Andorian I think COP Founder Archer stands a really good chance of being featured in one of the events at least.

    This is speculation on my part. but what if...... the reason we don't know anything yet is because the tie in is ..
    that for the last 9 months while Discovery was in the Mirror Universe the Klingons have been beating the Federation by trying to get the Vulcans and Andorians fighting each other once more and Cromwell is part of putting the back together. We do see her in the previews and T'Kuvma's big thing was how un-pure the Federation was by "mixing the races".
    . Just some food for thought.

    Sincerely,

    Lilac Erosion

    Maybe the irony is that we play because we’re Star Trek fans, those hopeful idealists that like to think things will get better when we raise valid concerns about fairness and balance, etc and we forget that DB’s greed openly mocks the values espoused by the franchise they have a license

    Now that is some solid writing! I could 100% be behind this. Let's hope DBs story writing is that good :)

    I imagine the only way we’ll keep the pitchforks in the shed is if her base med is somewhere between Crell Moset and Dr. Culber.

    Pitchforks for a freebie :o If I would cook for someone (aka a free meal) and that person would come with stuff like not spicy enough, not enough meat, not enough whatever that would surely be the last time I cook for that one, lol. Personally I think you can expect nothing from a freebie. If I like it fine. If not off to the airlock it goes...

    Lol folks buy packs, folks buy double ups, etc. So not everything is free even on a 'freebee'
  • So monthly featured sounds like Vulcans and Andorians.

    Bring it!

    I am speaking of getting 4/5 for more or less free (more or less cause playing takes some resources of course). In case you buy a pack, double up you obviously like the character, the stats etc. and that is something else than obviously...

    I'm pretty disappointed that we couldn't get an Enterprise mega event character for an Enterprise themed event. Here's hoping we get the first ever Archer event and also a new Shran.

    I know right?! I have a feeling COP Archer may be in one of the events, and I'm really hoping for a new Shran!

    I haven't seen Discovery yet, so I don't have a dog in the fight, but with that description and what I've read here, there are plenty of people who would not like to save the Discovery.

    For me, the era matters. I'd suppose the original series Vulcans, but I would absolutely support the Enterprise Andorians.

    I'm 100% supporting the Andorians here. They can do whatever they'd like to the Disco crew. Except Saru. I'll save Saru.

    I’m saving Saru too... for a midnight snack... 😝

    I think the art on Cornwell is pretty good considering recent attempts. It looks like the actress for one thing. She also looks a little worse for wear, and a little beat up, because this is her when she's a prisoner of the Klingons.

    As for the event itself, I'm excited for an Andorian-Vulcan event (mainly the Andorian part), but disappointed with shoehorning Discovery in.

    But as long as I can get a Jhemel and/or Talas out of it (maybe a new Shran?), I'll be happy.

    I would be super pumped for more Andorians. My main character in STO is Andorian and Shran is one of my all-time favorite recurring characters.
    Edit/Additional thought:

    I take it we would both LOVE to have Commodore Decker in the game, and I could see him being the Mega Event Legendary in an event involving the Doomsday Machine (THAT sounds like an awesome mega event where you could make ships relevant somehow). With the logic of mixing up characters though we could end up with someone like Alternate Future Janeway as the Mega legend, and that would just be harsh.

    This would be the best mega event yet, even if they shoehorned a couple Janeways where they don’t belong.

    I have only 2 Vulcans on my crew roster and 9 4*s in the freezer, so I'd really appreciate if Shan would let us know bonus crew ASAP.

    My first thought at the end of the last episode when Georgiou came back was "OH NO SHE'S GONNA EAT SARU!" I am fully expecting an episode about that.

    I've been obsessing about the Commodore Decker / Doomsday Machine Mega Event idea since I first though about it. I bet they could create an event type around Voyages for this. Dilemmas reward VP, Event characters add bonuses to Antimatter, I dunno... needs a bit of though put into it, but that could really be a SOLID event!

    That's a really nice surprise!!!! Thank you DB! :)

    I was right for once!!!!
    I can't imagine Cornwell ends up primary medical. Like For Cardassia, I have to imagine she's CMD primary, with secondaries in MED and DIP.

    How strong should her command be when Lorca ignores almost every order she gives?

    I don't think there's a CMD score high enough to get Lorca to do anything he doesn't want to do.

    I'm hoping that the Prisoner persona will drop her CMD completely and give us: MED primary, DIP secondary and SEC tertiarty. Probably not, but I can hope lol

    EDIT: Thought more about this and in my mind it's reasonable...

    To quote one of my favorite movies (Army of Darkness):

    Duke Henry: I am Henry the Red. Duke of Shale, Lord of the Northlands and leader of its peoples.

    Ash: Well hello Mister Fancypants. Well, I've got news for you pal, you ain't leadin' but two things, right now: Jack and *hugs*... and Jack left town.

    *** They were prisoners :)

    Time to unfreeze Prisoner Fun Sponge and put her with Graduation Fun Sponge. Also my 2* Saru, who I like, but is beaten out for cadet space because he is male. Also time to level Shan.

    Not sure how Shan would feel about that lol

    Perhaps Shran would be a better choice ;)

    Hehe, nice hope there Mr Crystal Ball :p Not my favourite art, but with that skill mix I can "overlook" it. Good one DB...

    Culber´s med starts with 68 + (22–46). Cornwell´s med with 74 + (22-46). Should become a powerhouse for the med part of our crews when finished...

    Small misnomer here - those I starred are not technically "Discovery Crew" per the show, just for DBs definition for the game...

    Yes, I'm being picky. lol

    Will the new Scotty provide a small bonus for the duration of the mega event? He doesn't match traits but I can't think of a bonus crew during a mega event not providing a bonus for the rest of the mega event.
