Impressive, indeed. Check out the details below.
Tier Six Command Battle Cruisers;
Looks like Cryptic has taken it up a notch on ship designs.
Cheers

Information on all ships is up now.
Federation
Klingon
Romulan
Not really digging the looks of any of them, except Romulan. Seems the trend is, if you want a good looking ship to roll green blooded.

Thats because you don't like federations ships that look like they're actually from star trek. I think they're all pretty gorgeous, though I like the tactical version the least.
Jesus Christ the Klingon ships are fucking ugly. They look like bricks.

Hmmm.....not sure how you came to that conclusion Shacky Poo. The only ships I seem to like are ones from the shows, movies, and that very closely resemble them, like the Guardian or Sao Paulo for example.
Do agree, the Klingon guys got the raw end of the deal for sure.

Not liking the whole bundle deal like they did with the DSDs. Buying any one ship or one faction bundle locks you out of buying the super bundle, but the ships looks amazing.. except for the klingon ships... don't know what they were thinking there.. lol

Makes Baby Kahless wanna cry. Geez, what were they thinking? Might have to check the sofa for some spare change for the Romulan bundle. Too tempting.

The Romulans ships actually look good this time around. 24th century, but still very bird like as well.

I am so ready for these ships! I've been dying for a new heavy duty combat cruiser for awhile, being genuinely unhappy with the performance of almost everything but my Excelsior. My ZEN is set aside and ready for spending.
I also dislike the Presidio class because it looks strange (like a regular Federation ship on a diet?) and I find the Klingon ships extremely blocky looking. However, as I am somewhat used to having a Borg Cube try and eat my face I know that blocky can sometimes be cool.
I really also hope these come with a unique bridge.

Speaking of Excelsior, I really liked the Excelsior look one of them has in the pictures. That's something I would of loved, a model based off the Excelsior with the 24th century look. Not like the Vesper, but kinda like that one picture is. Just chop that middle section and bring the nacelles down onto the tail/secondary with just 2 of them.
I think it's safe to say, if they ever do that, everyone in STO land would be buying the 24th century Excelsior.

Its actually cause the designs are based on the Fuzzyprise. One of the entrants for the design the new enterprise contest had a very distinct design which incorporated the hull of an Excelsior. Just Google Fuzzyprise and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Wish there was other angles provided, as it stands now the romulan ships look the most interesting.
"If human military designers had their way every colour of the spectrum would be removed except for grey, green and black and we would all live in windowless boxes."

- – Ranger Dulann on the Valen's design aesthetic
that quote pretty much sums up the klingon ships.
I am just waiting to see how they will hold up. So far the delta pack ships havnt held up well in replacing my Avenger. I have yet to gain the Kobali ship or the Vaaduar cruiser to see if those stand a chance.

+1 In Valen's name, agreed. If the 7th I.T.S. is going to be working between the light and the dark, at least give us good looking ships to die in. No worries, the buzz on Qu'Nos is no true KDF player will be spending any zen on those ships.
Cheers

Yep, you're right Mercer. The Fuzzyprise indeed. I feel like it was a missed chance for now to give people a sick looking Excelsior refit. I was kinda hoping for at least Fleet ships for the current T6 models. Right now my Fleet Sovereign 5U outperforms my Guardian.

I believe the command ships have 11 console slots.

Just finished watching the livestream of the command ships. Have to say ... Klink ships still looked blocky, but not as bad, but the Rom ships looks amazing in the ship tailor. I also won 1000 Zen to put towards a mega bundle :)
