Splater Studios Galaxy Class Painting Field Notes Transcript I. What makes this ship attractive? the hull? the ability to cloak or load cannons? the new console? Cloak is possibly useful for PvP (element of surprise) New console is okay, though targetable projectiles on 2m cooldown II. Variable Auto-Targeting Armament (V.A.T.A.) Creates two targetable projectiles that fire projectiles of their own. 2m cooldown. Projectiles vary based on current cruiser comm array ability If used, possibly worth investing one tactical console on kinetic III. What separates the C-Store base version from its Fleet Upgrade? Base: Access to V.A.T.A. console Fleet: Second science console, +10% base hull and shields Not a major difference in survivability, cruiser is already surprisingly sturdy Extra cosmetic option: "flat" pylons vs. upswept IV. Cruiser Communication Array Abilities a. What is the new mechanic? Area-of-effect buffs (5 km), affects teammates, carrier pets (any allied ships) b. specific run-down Command – Weapon System Efficiency Reduced energy drain on weapons Command – Shield Frequency Modulation Shield resilience Command – Strategic Maneuvering Increased turn rate and speed, diminishes over distance V. What does the load-out look like? Ensign Tactical (1) Lt. Comm. Tactical (3) Comm. Engineering (4) Lt. Science (2) Lt. Univ (2) VI. What is an Aux2Batt build? Two copies of Auxillary to Battery I, three very rare Technicians (or two VR + one Rare) Reduces cooldown of all Bridge officer powers by 30%. Two A2B usages usually brings all powers to global cooldown.
