Now, on to all the items you'll earn in STO – for free! The Andorian Starter Pack contains:

Andorian Light Escort

Star Trek Online STO MMORPG F2P Sc-Fi MMO game

The Andorian Kumari Escort line is named in honor of the first Andorian Battle Cruiser, the Kumari, captained by Commander Thy'lek Shran in the 2150s. The Andorian Light Escort is a lightweight vessel that uses a similar design to Shran's Kumari, but comes equipped with the latest developments in Federation technology. The Kumari line's integrated Wing Cannons are among the most powerful weaponry ever seen in the Alpha Quadrant, designed to deliver powerful bursts of Phaser energy too quickly for an enemy vessel to recover.

The Andorian Light Escort comes with an additional fore weapon slot compared to other ships of its size. This weapon slot is equipped with Light Kumari Phaser Wing Cannons, powerful weapons that scale with the user’s level. This ship unlocks for all Federation characters on an account.

Minimum Rank: Lieutenant
Faction: Federation
Hull Strength: 10,000
Shield Modifier: 0.95
Crew: 85
Weapons: 3 Fore*, 1 Aft
Device Slots: 2
Bridge Officer Stations: 1 Ensign Tactical, 1 Ensign Engineering, 1 Ensign Science
Console Modifications: 1 Tactical, 1 Engineering, 1 Science
Base Turn Rate: 14 degrees per second
Impulse Modifier: 0.17
+5 Weapon Subsystems
Can Equip cannons
Equipped with standard Andorian Phasers**
Comes with Light Kumari Phaser Wing Cannons

* One fore weapon slot is occupied by Light Kumari Wing Cannons. This weapon can be removed and replaced by a different weapon, but it cannot be equipped on ships other an Andorian Light Escort. Only one may be equipped per ship at a time.

**These ships come pre-equipped with Andorian Phaser Weapons. These do not allow you to purchase the Mark XI Andorian Phasers on the Dilithium Store, however. To purchase those items, you must own a ship an Andorian Kumari Escort, an Andorian Charal Escort, or an Andorian Khyzon Escort.

After claiming the Andorian Starter Pack from the ‘Bundles’ tab of the C-Store, if you discharge the ship or wish to claim it on alternate characters, please visit the “Ship Requisitions” contact in a shipyard.

I am really into Neverwinter, but I can tell you that other than Beta access which you can get for the cheaper $60 Guardian pack that the founder's pack just isn't worth it.

Even with the addition of the Andorian pack, it still only comes to about $130 in value. and that would only be if you considered the Andorian ships a worthwhile investment.

Don't misunderstand, I love the game but I just want folks to understand that this offer may not be worth quite the money they are asking for. There is a breakdown of the values of the starter packs for Neverwinter in their beta forums based on the last few beta weekends, and the only real benefit is beta access and a unique class that will most likely be offered in the cash shop within 2 years of release.

If you think the Andorian Ship pack is worth getting AND you are still looking to get into this Beta (should be going to open beta within 2 months) or are Crazy about Drizzt and want to be just like him, then this would be a good deal for you. Otherwise, save the cash and buy stuff seperately.

No perks for CO players. If they came out and said that the Founders pack included $200 off the LTS, I'd probably consider it. I refuse to pay $200 for this and turn around and pay $200-$300 for an LTS, if I decided to do that.

Yeah, and it's only a LT level ship your getting..with weapons that can only go ON THAT SHIP.

Drizzt is pretty awesome though..

The funniest thing about that ship is that the weapon scales with your level..why? lol
