Cryptic Studios has just released a brand new ship for all of you ship junkies out there. The Nebula class is available now in the C-store, and many of you will remember the Nebula class most notably from the battle of Wolf 359. Several Nebula Class ships were shown, and subsequently destroyed, in the battle on DS9's pilot episode "Emissary". Check out full details of the Nebula Class ship below.

Advanced Research Vessel Retrofit: Nebula Class

(1,200 Cryptic Points)

The iconic Nebula Class of the late 24th century has been retrofitted to give it everything an admiral needs to battle the Borg or face down a Breen armada! The Advanced Research Vessel Retrofit is a science vessel with six weapon slots (3 fore, 3 aft), seats for five Bridge Officers (Lieutenant Tactical, Lt. Commander Engineering, Commander Science, Ensign Science and Lieutenant Universal), space for 8 console modifications (2 Tactical, 3 Engineering and 3 Science), 3 device slots and a crew of 750 officers. It also features Subsystem Targeting and a Tachyon Detection Grid that will increase Starship Sensors as well as Stealth Detection. When the grid is active, it also increases the Starship Sensors and Stealth Detection of all nearby allies. Those allies, in turn, can extend those benefits for allies near them, thereby extending the overall size of the grid. The Tachyon Detection Grid is not modified by Stats or Auxiliary Power. Note: This ship may only be purchased by Federation Rear Admirals. The Advanced Research Vessel Retrofit may be obtained in game per character by spending Marks of Exploration. Purchasing the ship from the C-Store unlocks it for all Rear Admiral characters on an account.
