We won't have them for the first event - big deal, it's a Skirmish.
We probably won't have them in time for the second event, most likely partway through unless you're burning chrons to get the continuum done quickly (and this week was the CCL OE so...). Bigger deal.
We'll have them for the third event, but only at 1/5 (most likely 2/5 with a cite) so maybe useful? Again, unless you burn chrons.
By the 4th event they'll be genuinely useful, except that that's a Specialist so almost as irrelevant as for a Skirmish.
Beginning to think that they may have not entirely thought this one through.

Week 3 is galaxy and week 4 is faction, so there could be some usefulness for this new crew member.
I can't figure this out.. Archer & Porthos were supposed to be in this week's Continuum rewards?
They never appeared for me, and I completed the Epic level yesterday (and got the Legendary Behold reward)...
Have I missed a copy, or is everyone in the same boat?
If so, I think TP/WRG (or whoever they're called these days) need to send out a copy to everyone who completed the Continuum before this "announcement" appeared!

Unfortunately, this is not the first time they announced a specific Crew for a specific thing, and did not account for issues, thus did not give themselves enough lead time.
Glaring previous examples include the "1000th Crew" ending up actually being about 1003rd, and then trying to release the one specific version of Adira from Season Three when they were contractually forbidden to release that Adira before the episode she appeared in, because Paramount felt it was a spoiler.
I do apologize if my tone was overly snarky, though.
It looks like Joe posted somewhere else examples of why sufficient lead times matter.

For those who haven’t noticed, there is a thread that shares the survey results, including the change to mega event types: https://forum.wickedrealmgames.com/stt/discussion/21747/event-survey-results-april-2025#latest

Has anyone had the new card this week?
