So, I just realised that there are very few bonus crew for this event.
We have 1x Ash and 4x Scotty, and two of those Scottys are 2* and 3*.
So realistically, that's 3 bonus crew.
Any thoughts on what additional bonuses may be? There's no "festive" trait, but maybe "Costumed" would work? All "Starfleet" or all "Federation" would obviously be too much, but there's very little else that would tie these crew together...

How bout at the BEGINNING of the event? I gotta say, this is AWESOME! Enterprise love, more Andorians, which I thought were lacking, and recurring Cromwell!! Three home runs!! Thanks you DB!!

I wouldn't be surprised if Shran was also part of the event crew (given that his lover is one of the crew already). Being a mega event, there is likely some classification of "other" crew that will also apply that will be more clear once they fully announce the event.

Shran was involved with Talas, not Tarah.
Tarah was the one who shot/tried to kill Soval.
But yeah, Shran could be an option, but he still doesn't add much bonus crew, we only have 2 of him (sadly).

Great event crew, hands down. Good job, DB I am also very happy to get another Suzie Plakson in the mix. I thoroughly enjoyed all the roles she was picked for.
EDIT: Bloody hell, this might actually be a Galaxy event I might actually partake in...

We will know more once @Shan does the info release for the mega. Possibly all counselors? Since Cornwell is a psychologist??? I was thinking jury riggers because of Scotty but not all Scotty has that trait.
But there is at least 4 crew. Two 4* Ash variants and 4* Scotty and 5* Scotty

Unlike faction events where you need a deep squad in galaxy events basically you need just a few peeps. So in case you have Ash + a Scotty and whatever will be decided to give a bonus should be fine...

Sometimes though skill variety is important, and having a variety of traits.
Usually in Galaxy I have 3-4 characters I use consistently, but with only 4 possible bonus crew, what are the chances of the average player having them all?

Yeah, let´s wait and see more infos. Also unusual anyway. Previous mega events were teased in advance. This time we know some about the first part, but no further details...

That is one good thing about the 4* versions of Ash/Scotty: they have strong secondaries and don't overlap. If you have the 4* versions of both, you have good crew for four skills: SEC/CMD (Ash) and ENG/SCI (Scotty). That still leaves DIP and MED, of course.

That's true except . . .
if Torchbearer Voq counts as a version of Ash, then DIP is also covered.

We'll have to wait on whether that will happen though. It's entirely likely that it won't.
Besides...
I airlocked my Voq so that doesn't help me lol

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.
I'd love to see a MED primary skill for her just because, like most of you, I could use 4 (or 5!) copies of a legendary crew member with MED primary, but I agree it seems unlikely. I actually think her primary skill might be diplomacy, with similar rationale to Desert Georgiou or Admiral Kirk. If she were DIP/MED/CMD, that would be a very welcome addition to my crew, too.
It would be really nice if they gave us 5 new free slots with each Mega Event. If they do all new crew (like they seem to be doing), this event will add 13 new crew over 4 weeks. Asking for 5 slots isn't really asking much.
The idea is to pump money in the game, if they give slots mean less dilithium mean less money. What is with all this flood of new crew when in portal is only some freak ones that they repeat over and over...i agree with you but DB I

Will be too much, but how about this event with brutal? They are too much allready and again will be so much FED faction...meh
If it was a quarterly mega-event, it would be interesting but this every other month thing is just monotonous. Free 4/5 is hard to pass up but I think its long past time for an interesting event. Something other than galaxy, shuttles and ( dont throw watermelons please) those watered down expeditions.
Usually in Galaxy I have 3-4 characters I use consistently, but with only 4 possible bonus crew, what are the chances of the average player having them all?
The average player will only need: 1/5 Cornwall, 4/4 Threshold character, 1/4 Community reward.
That's good enough to finish first place without spending money.

This event was ridiculous, but it'd be even worse if the trait was Starfleet or Federation.

The rest will enjoy the icy cold of space.
Seems foolish to throw away a free 4/5....
Possibly all Andorians

Let's hope they don't do "older" Dress Uniform Scotty...I bet his walking stick would need an ungodly amount of 4* casings...
It is the same kilt, which I think is cool.
We'll have to wait on whether that will happen though. It's entirely likely that it won't.
