There is a kit module vendor on the promenade on DS9, they may have them

Just get some low level versions and upgrade them?
Or craft them or ask someone to craft them for you?

Kit modules are not in the R&D, I've had a look on DS9 and the vendors only go upto mk IX.
Ah, my bad. Well, you can still farm that one Borg mission that rewards purple kits and modules until you get the ones you need?
Just checking my credits. 4 million dollars is not close to buying a Kelvin TL Connie.
Kit modules cannot be crafted, cannot be upgraded. Rare and very rare versions almost never drop, even when playing on elite difficulty.
First time STO player here. I barely started the tutorial level and then lost connection. I know this will probably sound like a stupid question but is there any way to play STO offline? I live in South Africa which has some of the worst internet in the world. The only affordable uncapped option is only accessible in the early hours of the morning which is hardly a fun way to play. I don't care about not being multiplayer (in fact I'd prefer it) just so long as it works.
I actually didn't get much (if anything) during the run.
I did try Starbase 24 on my own, but that proved difficult if you don't have a strong ship. I also tried The Big Dig on my own and was successful in getting some loot, but it seems the mission is bugged...so I had to stop. (It got to the point where my toon shoots and walks backwards, getting flanking damage....which isn't cool).
I know Tour the Galaxy is one other way to get some EC; I recommend touring the Alpha Quadrant since there are fewer areas to hit.
Offline is totally impossible. If you download the entire game during N uncapped period, the amount of data used should be small enough for carefully timed playing during capped periods. I can't speak for certain as I don't k kW much about the data use specifics on either Sto or south African Internet. However, I played another Mmo on a mobile phone connection at university with no problem, because I made sure the game was totally installed first.
I have heard of people using it offline such as in this video:
So I assumed it was possible.
Hmm. That's a pretty early video. It's possible they were solo inside a mission and disconnected and it just didn't matter so much. Or that they are using demorecord, which plays back missions.
If it is offline, it's certainly a bug and unlikely to be easy to replicate, especially given how much has changed.
As I understand it the guy used a modified version of STO from here:

Most of the technical stuff being discussed in that thread I don't understand, but it appears to me that what this does is allow you to create your own small local server. If I'm getting this completely wrong let me know.

No idea, I wouldn't touch that concept though, local servers would certainly be against EULA and most likely also illegal.
It's most definitely illegal as someone will have to reverse engineer the game's server architecture and communication protocols, both of which are proprietary information. In fact just a few months ago, Blizzard forced a similar World of Warcraft private server, Nostralius, to shut down it's operation for this exact reason.
I have not bought from the Exchange in year. How do you find any Kelvin ship there? All I saw were cheap lockboxes.
If you're looking for the Kelvin Constitution, it's the "Kelvin Timeline Heavy Command Cruiser" in the exchange. I had the same problem too, the fact that the notification that comes on screen when somebody unlocks one makes that more confusing.

Thanks I will look again after I return to a Starbase.
Even if it was entirely confined to one computer?
Yup. There no software bought so there's no 'own use' get out clause, and the server software itself wild have to have been reverse engineered or outright stolen to be available.
