(Also, K'senya MacCready, the Klingon I made in order to have a graphical prototype for what B'Elanna O'Brien looks like as a KDF officer, is going to get there sometime today, I expect. Which is great because it means she can go back to driving a real ship and not any of the woeful tier-4 offerings.)

If this happened in UF, would we be seeing the world's first SDF-1 type transforming Bird of Prey?

"This is probably a stupid question, but . . ."

Of course your mileage may very.

Or so I thought. As it turns out, though, the list of available tier-5 Klingon ships contains a misleading detail, or, as we used to call such things in simpler times, a filthy lie. There's a tier-5 ship called the "Fleet K't'inga Battle Cruiser Retrofit", which, as its name suggests, is for members of fleets only. Fine, great, whatever. There's another ship in the list called simply the "K't'inga Battle Cruiser Retrofit". What would you think? I think you would think what I thought.

But no. Unlike every other higher-tier-than-its-original-version "Retrofit" ship I can think of that doesn't have "Fleet" in its name, it's reserved for fleet members only as well.

"Fuck you," says Cryptic, "play the way we think you should play or resign yourself to less-cool toys." Some things never, ever change.
