Bio Break 
Thanks I was trying to link these on my message boards as well, I did not know about the Classes Post and gameplay
Thank you!
This is awesome Syp! Thanks for putting together this list.
I’m pretty sure I’ve read most of them, but for someone like me who hasn’t opted in to the Open beta, this will be a good prep for game release!
Oh, and for a guide on bad Star Trek acting, there is nothing better than watching the MAN himself:
Nice list! Thanks!
Excellent list! For my own edification, I made up a short list of what your class can and can’t do; the linked article is far better, but a little lengthy.
My Captain’s Class Affects:
– What kits I can use (ground)
– What items my character can equip (ground)
– What skills I can train (ground)
– What class abilities I get (both ground and space; five in each category)
My Captain’s Class Doesn’t Affect:
– What ships I can fly
– What skills I can train (space)
– What items my ship can equip
– What bridge officers I can use (that’s dependent on your ship)
