I have to say it looks like they put a lot of work into this, the ship textures look nice but.... I still think "No, no and again, no". 
Those displays on the bridge look like a trekified apple UI too.   

:/

That is how they looked in Voyager.

With Voyager, it's let the buyer beware. (I didn't much care for it, I'll admit.)

Thinking about it, the set designers on that ep were pretty far sighted when it came to that lcars lol
Or maybe apple took their design cues from voy? *conspiracy* :tinfoilhat:

I dunno, I rather liked the look of the TCARS.

Relativity's a decent enough episode, though very Seven of Nine heavy.  Not to mention the headaches caused by anything dealing with time travel. :hithead:

Who ever made that Panel at the bottom spelled Kathryn wrong.

A fleet mate won the Wells class and bought a Aeon time ship, and copied his character to tribble with the un-opened boxes so I could fly around, I like the Wells, and the Aeon as well.

They have Warp Animation where two discs near the rear of the ship open up when going to warp, they also open when using the Omega 13 device (I forgot the real name)

Sounds pretty neat.  When they come online, I'll pick up a few stacks of lockboxes and hope for the best.

Could have fooled me...I've done I don't know how many random encounters and haven't seen a single drop box, where usually they're all over the place...

Btw, the ship drop announcements are bogus.  According to one I had received a temporal sci vessel!
Pity I didn't take a screenie :/

Maybe you just read it wrong.

You're the first person I've seen mention a fake one.

You can buy them in the dilithium Store for 200

Maybe they've decreased the drop rate.

I'm quite sure it was me.  Unless it was @captainobvious which was the name I wanted but that was taken.  Besides, what are the odds that this @captainobvious also has a toon that has the same name as mine?

I'm pretty damn sure it is bogus.

I'm not going to argue with you, but I''m not going to believe you either because you're the only case I've seen of someone claiming this since the notifications started.

Thanks for the info Kori.  What are the odds on getting either a standard Wells or mirror Wells?

As for the box drops, I've seen them in STFs and the fleet pve content, but nowhere else. But the drop rates seem to be much lower compared to the ferengi boxes judging by what I've seen so far.
