Overdue Review: Hands on with the T6 Daemosh Na’Kuhl Science vessel 4/5 Stars
wRrrrr-wRrrrr-wRrrrr-ZRrrrr-wRrrrr-wRrrrr-wRrrrr-ZRrrrr Normally we don’t get player versions of an opponent ships until later in that season, or not until after the current story arc runs it’s course. Anecdotally it seems like we’re getting them sooner each season. The Na’Kuhl are a temporal adversary after all, so in theory at least they could have shown up at any time đ My first impressions with the Na’khul … Continue reading Overdue Review: Hands on with the T6 Daemosh Na’Kuhl Science vessel 4/5 Stars
Guest Blogger: Only Six Missions â TOS Character: Faction or Fraction?

Guest Blogger Hera: The Photon and Proton Science Pilot Escort Build
Lootcritter here: Hera offered to provide a kinetic build example after a few conversations about her success with it.  I’ve had requests for build advice, and while i’m happy with what I can do, offering a look at how others reach their goals gives me an opportunity to learn as well.  In the coming months I will be offering other builds specifically for new players getting into Star Trek … Continue reading Guest Blogger Hera: The Photon and Proton Science Pilot Escort Build
Guest Blogger: âOnly Six Missionsâ â Faction Parity, Disgruntled Fans, Lost Direction, and Years of Built of Tension
Lootcritter here: Â I have my own feelings about the amount of content poised for release with Agents of Yesterday. Â As information drips slowly out for us to dissect, rearrange, speculate and then vivisect (yes, a dead horse reference) – the STO fandom in general is both confused and concerned, and for some super happy at the thought of a TOS expansion. Â What I do … Continue reading Guest Blogger: âOnly Six Missionsâ â Faction Parity, Disgruntled Fans, Lost Direction, and Years of Built of Tension
Fair Warning: Event Ships Currency & Exclusivity Changes Inbound
With the Summer Risian Event just a few weeks away, and the Crystalline Entity almost complete – Star Trek Online has updated the currency options for major (ship) prizes.  The changes are not a nerf, but contain both a decent compromise and an unfortunate change.  Here’s a summary of the changes to the currencies that impact ship rewards: Event ship rewards are no longer ‘exclusive’.  Previously before … Continue reading Fair Warning: Event Ships Currency & Exclusivity Changes Inbound
Confirmation about AoY content from a reliable source
âThe Future is the past. The past is the future. It all gives me a headache.â – Capt. Janeway So does the belief that episodes have to occur one after the other; three leads to four, four to five, and six ends up on ESD in the 24 25th century. The last 24 hours has been a headache with many Star Trek Online enthusiastâs wondering … Continue reading Confirmation about AoY content from a reliable source
Timberwolf Interviews Salami Inferno
Lootcritter here: I’ve just finished the 3rd and 4th episodes of Agents of Yesterday and I half to say the content is far more crazy than I originally imagined.  It’s ridiculously immersive, well written and if you’re a fan of TOS and [REDACTED], this is what leveling should have been from the start.  More on that once AoY goes live. In the meantime, Timberwolf has scored an interview with Stephen Ricossa  (Salami Inferno) … Continue reading Timberwolf Interviews Salami Inferno
Rant: On ‘best’ Star Trek & choices
Originally posted on Captain Jan's Musings:
Here’s almost taboo question among Star Trek fans, that is, unless you want to incite flames – Best Star Trek, what is Trek and what is not? A heated discussion among the Star Trek fans, whenever this even pops up. It’s as if you said to a Klingon that his mother’s forehead was smooth. That kind of bad.… Continue reading Rant: On ‘best’ Star Trek & choices
Guest Blogger Timberwolf: Wells Class Temporal Science Vessel Review
Lootcritter here: It’s been a hell of week, full of surprises. The announcement that Star Trek Online is coming to consoles took us all by surprise, generating as much hoopla as one would expect while leaving many of us with unanswered questions.  In the meantime, Timberwolf has branched out yet again with another review – this time with the Wells Class Temporal ship.  The Wells was my first experience in … Continue reading Guest Blogger Timberwolf: Wells Class Temporal Science Vessel Review
