Torn between the original Enterprise or owning a Tribble. Definitely in for getting on a week early :rockout :rockout

So... freaking... annoying...

I want a Vulcan sex slave.

Let me know when that comes available.

I kinda wanted the Enterprise as having a Cruiser at start will probably make space based mission a bit easier in the beginning. But i also want the Borg as it will be helpful throughout the whole game.

Amazon's Borg or Wal-Mart's Bonus Skills.

If the borg is useful the whole game I would choose it, poor target... doubt that it is that good...

As a matter a fact are any of them that good???

Before the game even starts I can tell this type of thing is fail. Another item-centric grindfest. I'll probably buy it anyways because it's not like any other Trek MMO is going to come along in the next couple of years.

I guess I will go with the Tribble. I would maybe rather have the borg officer but I don't want to wait for Amazon shipping.

First one to say they are going to get them all gets free gaming cred.

What about me who is not getting any of them?
