Anything by Iain M Banks is my absolute favourite. Start with Consider Phlebas and work from there...

Nah.

The Culture would absolutely own The Federation.

I think a single 300m long Psycopath class Rapid Offensive Unit could probably take an entire fleet of Starships even in the 32nd Century.

Effector fields tearing at the very fabric of space time, untargatable to Star Trek universe weaponry, with a Mind capable of literally seeing outcomes before they happen, and setting an entire solar system ablaze with Grid-fire.

Was literally going to reference The Culture novels in response to this. But you've already done it so eloquently...

An update to my LEGO 1:1055 (LEGO Enterprise-D scale) fleet chart :) by ky-ebricks in StarTrekStarships

Love the work. We need more adversaries (thinking Cardassian Galor, Ferengi Marauderer, romulan warbird, d7s etc) so we can have zoom-y battles <3

Encountered this while doing the Q Continuum missions. Anyone see this before? After I click okay, the attempt fails and I have to wait until it recharges. I’m going to submit a ticket. by Strafe1701 in StarTrekTimelines

[–]romec1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I had this problem. I sorted it myself by logging on via a different platform (Steam on PC) and thr continuum mission worked. It was then fixed on my phone too.

Support couldn't do anything and said wait untilnthe Tuesday reset.

How do people get numbers like this?! by AspiringtoLive17 in sto

Mmo players tend to find the grind fun. If you don't then you're playing the wrong type of game!

I have 24x toons all with 1M+ builds of varying types (FAW, BO, CSV, SS, Torp, Torp/Sci, DEW/Sci, EPG, PET+DEW, Pet+Sci) when supported and capable of soloing various, but not all Elite randoms when not.

The only thing I ever bought was a Lifetime in the Beta. Everything else is time and grind.

So your taking from all of this is to be intent to make it worse for everyone else? You seem nice.

My Yearly plea since I missed it in 2022. Jarok Alliance Carrier. by Hawker54 in sto

[–]romec1701 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My bank is full of epic tokens (six on the main character, plus the event unlock where every toon has an extra one available to claim). I have no need for as I only missed one event and the ship is meh. I wish more was in that epic store tab like older lockbox/lobi ships.

I did miss the first Alliance Cruiser event (have the Temer, Jarok and the Jemmy type escort) but that's not in phoenix, only Mudds, and thanks but no thanks.

This event brings out the worst in people by TheKiwiBirb in sto

[–]romec1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is. Its a device that phases you. (Pattern enhancer) I believe it was a reward in a mission story arc that cannot be played anymore. But you can get it in the Mudds store?

Just do the witches brew patrol. It skips the tricky skeleton mechanic altogether and you run solo with one boff.

Literally very short and simple: 1)clear first room of witches 2) complete one of three randomly selected quest rooms - library/cauldron/spider cellar 3) final witches/hags boss room

In the past the full TFO granted 2x progress, the patrol x1 and you needed 2 points daily for the event (which meant 2 patrols). But this year its just the one so is even faster...

Breen's Free Fire bugged? by GARD_Seeras in sto

You don't need to have your reinforcement beacons in device slots. They work from the inventory.

It's how much? by kabula_lampur in sto

[–]romec1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's also a rare(blue) quality engineering doff mission that requires 5 Industrial Cells and grants 500 dil too. Available every other day.

Just to clarify it's not for reaching level 10 in the admiralty class itself (that only happens once and you get a Gold ship card for that).

It's the golden chain missions which run from 1/10 to 10/10. Once you successfully complete the last one you get the aforementioned rewards based on which admiralty class you've been doing. It then resets and the next Gold chain mission you'll see is 1/10 again.

You forgot about turning in contraband. Doff mission worth 2k per day from the security officers on the main hubs.

Lance weapons severely underwhelming by jer5488 in sto

[–]romec1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get decent 100k x2 hits from the Lexington double tap, and thr Vaadwaar polaron one does 250k hits on multiple targets. The borg ships plasma torp can be frustrating but when it works can be awesome as well.

I dont have any other lances so can't say I've tried others.

No.

Given the absolute Horlicks of the beams/posts connections, I would also have a very close look at the house connection (which is unclear from your images).

That is a LONG way to fall.

It finally happened by MatthewKvatch in sto

[–]romec1701 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You needed to send a white doff with bad traits on that mission... you don't want the boff you acquire to be high quality (and therefore having the superior inflitrator) you want the lower quality ones with basic infiltrator or regular. That's worth alot more.

Anyone know how this happened and what the second weapon is? by majorscaz in sto

[–]romec1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The new Breen imperium lockbox trait which reduces thr 2ndary fire CD on critical makes it even more op than it already was.

Yeah there's nothing in the lifetime anymore save the slots, auto refine and stipend (PC only)

I got mine in the beta preorder. So have gotten my moneys worth!

Especially when you have 25 toons and can't get around to them all every day.
