Spoilers Star Trek: The Last Starship

[Tuskin38]

said in a recent video that he expects the USS Omega to be in game in October.

He's probably going off the fact the official announcement article from September 10th said this:

"That’s all for now, but before I go, I wanted to leave with you an image of the final in-game model of the Omega as a teaser for what you can expect next month!"

The Last Starship is starting its voyage!

Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go in this expanding vast universe.

Hopefully it’s in on 1st October!

That's a Wednesday, so no. New stuff arrives Tuesdays or Thursdays.

So I read the whole article, and they never really defined what they mean by this? Is it the highest number of pre-order sales? The highest number of first-run copies printed? Or... ?

Most HYPE!!!!!!!!!!!111!!!oneoneone

#1 was really well-written. And I dig the Picard connection. I find the first glimpses of the post-Burn Federation to be quite fascinating. The art direction is, well, artistic and unique.

All was great until the very last page. We desperately need new, original villains.

In the direct market, there wouldn't be a difference. There would be a small overprint at most, but in general the orders are going to set the print run.

Subs plus three, maybe five for this book. It’s gotten a little bit of press which is good, but it’s still not going to sell crazy numbers because a Star Trek book would never.

Uniforms were pretty interesting. Not a complete fan of the white parts but maybe in a future issue or so we'll get a breakdown of uniform styles and rank for the burn era or at least concept art

Still it almost looks like a theiss inspired costume in a non military look and something that looks comfortable to wear for long periods.

It states in Issue #1 that the contemporary Enterprise is one of the vessels destroyed, so likely no Enterprise X for quite some time.

Well - quite enjoyed that ...

Spoiler: Issue #2

1. Have they KO'd Hanna already?
2. The Bridge of the Omega seems to be equal parts Enterprise D and Discovery, not symmetrical, theres a ramp dowm on the left, but steps on the right, Hanna's console seemed to have a seat, but T'Galatheon's tactical console and Valqis' comm one seemed to be standing ones - so the front consoles are CONN/Tactical and Comms in the horseshoe.
3. Does T'Galatheon work for the Tal'Shiar/V'Shar on Ni'Var, of Section 31?

Maybe I'm getting old but I just don't understand the action in this issue. Just, literally, what is going on in the panels. E.g. what happened to Hanna and the other crewmember? (And in a few places later on.)

Still: a fun read. I hope that at the end there's a meaningful story behing the resurrection idea...

There’s a battle with rogue Klingons and Wowie tries to save Hana from her exploding console.
