ERROR: The ship does NOT come with a battle cloak. The battle cloak is part of the 3 piece set for having all of the Sovie consoles. Apologies!

[@TheZEFilms]

In order to have battle cloak, you need: Console - Universal - Metreon Gas Canisters from - Assault Cruiser Refit (T5) Console - Universal - Metreon Gas Warhead Launcher - Star Trek Attack Wing - U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E Expansion Pack, FED Tier 6 Console - Universal - Incremental Phase Cloaking Device - Archon Intel Assault Cruiser

Hey zefilms I have an unusual request, I've been trying to get my hands on a 3d printed uss aventine, could you upload a photo of the stock vesta class to gameprint so I can print it?

[@ProEnforcer]

Absolutely one of my favorite designs they have ever done. 10/10 easy for me. Love love love this ship!!!

[@clarkmeldrum7276]

Yes, absolutely, it's got the sovereign look but brings it's own uniqueness to the table with its cool looking nacelles.

[@Nemoticon]

I actually bought this by mistake... after triple checking everything, I clicked on the wrong item, lol. And, after initially throwing a massive tantrum I now love it!!! I got the Fleet T6 Intel version and it is very adaptable and easy to get working well. A fantastic ship.

[@CaptainGeronimo]

Man I love this starship - entire Sovereign line to be exact! :D

[@donodyn2715]

I like that the glowing bits make it an irresistible target...

[@obsidiansands]

I remember that the scalpers had a field day with the wiz kids version with the damn code, I was lucky enough to actually buy one at msrp retail value - but I had to travel to another city an hour away just to get it.

[@markmatsuda43]

I've love the video of the Phantom Intel Escort,but you did not show the inside of the Phantom Intel Escort and the jem-hadar Temporal Vanguard Warship too.

[@Ryusei1986]

Type 4 Material makes it look like it's been through Hell and back. :D

[@s.scottstaten1852]

Not a fan of the oversized Nacelles, but it is a Beautiful ship.

[@richardburton7292]

Did you turn back on the shadows when you began the shield visuals? Just curious if that made any difference with the deflector displays.....otherwise great review! Thx!

[@brandongray5069]

If you're taking suggestions, I've always liked the look of the Exeter class

[@shankshoanatlprez4453]

Not a fan of the "Arrowhead" saucer sections tbh. I much prefer the Enterprise E although I'm sure to be in the minority?

[@TheZEFilms]

Even if your opinion was in the minority, it's still a valid opinion. Like I try to stress (maybe too much) everything is subjective :)

[@shankshoanatlprez4453]

@@TheZEFilms I appreciate your words of wisdom. I mean She is still a most worthy addition to the fleet, don't get me wrong. I can hear Scotty now making "Ample Nacelle" jokes lol. Some ships just have my heart you know? Like if I could fully dive into a Trek game at some point in the future, I would want to Captain a ship like the U.S.S Emmit Till or Enterprise E. I love the Captain's Yacht feature they added. Tbh idk why Federation ships aren't built around a detachable Defiant Class ship? That would be amazing. I'd love to see a retrofitted more modern take on that stout tough little ship. Good job though, I am a fan 😁👍

[@SuperGamefreak18]

Nah no worries there's a such thing as overdoing the arrowhead shape which ships like the voyager and soverign have the perfect balance

[@incogni-bro8276]

I play on PS4 and they only way to get a battle cloak for the ship is if you have the whole console set. But one of the consoles isn’t in the game so....

[@TheZEFilms]

Yeah , sorry about that. The Archon only comes with Phased cloak. My bad there

[@jonathondallon6865]

Is it bigger than the enterprise e

[@LordEmperorHyperion]

You missed out the Regent Class..

[@zoberraz]

Ah, you picked my suggestion of going for the Archon-class. For Veteran, if the blue-highlights are what you're against, then there's no helping it. Irony is, though, that tron effects don't seem to put you off that much (i.e.: Aegis shield). I have a design beef against the Archon, mostly on account of the rear part of its engineering hull. It ends and loks a bit featureless adn stubby (in my eyes, anyways). Customizing the Assault Cruiser is a bit wierd, since the neck portion is a rather strange customizing bit to this vessel. You didn't really toy around with it a whole lot during your review, but any saucer that didn'T fit of fit wierdly might have been half due to the neck not being changed at the same time. In regard to how muted some shields look on the ship, I beleive part of what 7B is for is that it makes the modeling of the deflector independent to the rest of the ship's material (or so I recall). That means that it keeps one default look, no matter what visuals you then add to the ship after that.

[@ERodersRacing]

Can you do a review on a non Starfleet vessel like one of the T6 andorian escorts if you have any?

[@xanderprentice1740]

Does the ship come with a battlecloak on xbox?

[@TheZEFilms]

Sorry I mispoke. The battle cloak is only from the 3 piece set, and I dont think you can get the 3rd on console as it's from an exclusive ship ( the wiz kids ship i talked about)

[@xanderprentice1740]

@@TheZEFilms apparently i can get the phased cloak on the ship but thanks lol

[@TheZEFilms]

Yea it comes with phased clock, but Battle Cloak is only from the 3 piece. Sorry for the mix up

[@xanderprentice1740]

@@TheZEFilms you're good thanks for the help so the 3 piece Sovereign console set huh?

[@TheZEFilms]

Yea... Console - Universal - Metreon Gas Canisters from - Assault Cruiser Refit (T5) Console - Universal - Metreon Gas Warhead Launcher - Star Trek Attack Wing - U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E Expansion Pack, FED Tier 6 (this is the physical toy that came with code, and only way to get it) Console - Universal - Incremental Phase Cloaking Device - Archon Intel Assault Cruiser

[@Hazard2005]

That ship is compensating for something...

[@sirbabygorilla]

I love phat nacelles

[@dustinbrandel59]

Didnt know starfleet uses money.

[@andrewmcleod3659]

those nacelles are disgusting

[@incogni-bro8276]

Trust Me I'm A Stomach I personally like them, they give off an exotic look in my opinion.

[@andrewmcleod3659]

@@incogni-bro8276 fair enough; i just think they're too big and don't match the rest of the ship

[@incogni-bro8276]

Trust Me I'm A Stomach I thought so too, to be honest. But they kinda grew on me.
