“They know how to design a Federation starship and it’s so important, both to me and the fans, to work with collaborators who can capture the nuance of these ships, down to the last detail. “It’s been such a great honor working with the STO people because they are passionate people who know Star Trek design,” Dave Blass, Production Designer for Star Trek: Picard. This incredible opportunity was made possible by a collaboration between Star Trek: Picard’s production team and Star Trek Online’s design team at Cryptic Studios. This marks the very first time in the game’s history that original content from Star Trek Online has been featured on a live Star Trek show, officially establishing these beloved ships as canon. At the end of the episode “The Star Gazer,” a fleet of Starfleet ships can be seen on screen, which includes original starship models from the long running free-to-play MMORPG, including the Gagarin Miracle Worker Battlecruiser, the Legendary Ross Command Exploration Cruiser, the Sutherland Advanced Research Vessel and the Reliant Advanced Light Cruiser. Here's a press release with some extra details: It was a historic moment for Star Trek Online last night, as four of the game’s starships were featured in the Season 2 premiere of Star Trek: Picard on Paramount+. And now, apparently, the opposite is also true, as a number of starships designed specifically for Cryptic Studios' MMO have made an appearance in the Season 2 premiere of Star Trek: Picard. 244, Issue 6ĭev Diary: Design the Next Enterprise, StarTrek.Over the years, numerous Star Trek actors have had the chance to revisit their iconic characters in Star Trek Online. In addition, Odyssey-class ship captains may select the Saucer Separation Talent. SYSTEMS ENGINESĭEPARTMENTS (YORKTOWN-CLASS SCIENCE VARIANT) COMMANDĭEPARTMENTS (SOJOURNER-CLASS OPERATIONS VARIANT) COMMANDĭEPARTMENTS (ENDEAVOUR-CLASS TACTICAL VARIANT) COMMANDĪll Odyssey-class ships have the following Talents: Each section carries batteries of Type XIV phaser arrays and multiple torpedo launchers, typically equipped with a complement of 250 quantum torpedoes. Like the Galaxy-class cruiser, the Odyssey-class starship can separate its primary and secondary hulls, allowing it to evacuate family members during an emergency or use multi-vector assault tactics against enemy ships during military operations. While the slipstream drive cannot be maintained for more than a few minutes, it allows the Odyssey¬-class ship to traverse the entirety of Federation space or travel thousands of light-years in a matter of minutes. It is also fitted with an advanced quantum slipstream drive, first tested on the USS Voyager and later installed on Vesta-class starships. This allows the ship to maintain a cruising speed of Warp 8 and an emergency warp speed of Warp 9.994. The Odyssey-class ship has an optimal crew of 2,100 and can also comfortably carry crew members’ families during peacetime.ĬAPABILITIES: The Odyssey-class starship is designed to maintain a slender subspace profile, and its warp core is both larger and more efficient than that used for the Galaxy-class ship of the previous generation. In wartime, the class acts as the hard-hitting core of large starship formations, though it can also conduct solo operations. In peacetime, it serves the role of an explorer on long-term deep-space missions. Due to its size and power, the Odyssey was classified as a dreadnought. OVERVIEW: First conceptualized in 2404, the Odyssey-class starship was envisioned as an extension of the Constitution-class design lineage of a large, multi-role cruiser. Enterprise, NCC-1701-F, first appeared during Star Trek Online’s second anniversary event in 2012. The Ships of Star Trek Online series begins with the Odyssey-class starship, designed for Cryptic Studios by Adam Logan based on a submission by Adam Ilhe. In this era of increasing conflict, Starfleet officers must defend the Federation while continuing to explore strange new worlds and upholding the values on which the Federation was founded. In order to bring life to this campaign setting, many people in the Star Trek Adventures subreddit, myself included, developed statistics and overviews for the new ships included in Star Trek Online. Occurring roughly 25 years after the events in Star Trek: Nemesis, the Star Trek Online setting introduces new conflicts with the Klingons, the Romulans in the wake of their homeworld’s destruction, the Borg, and others. INTRODUCTION: I’m a gamemaster for a Star Trek Adventures series set in the Star Trek Online setting.
