We have some FBB news we wanted to share with you immediately!
With our next weekly server update, currently scheduled for next Tuesday 2022-11-29 (time to be determined), we will be making some changes to the Boss Destruction Rewards for the Brutal difficulty to make Bilitrium I more accessible. This in turn should help with the Bridge’s progression for players in smaller fleets.
Currently 1x Bilitrium I can be obtained as part of the 100% Boss Destruction rewards. With the change that will go live next week, Bilitrium I will become part of the Boss Destruction rewards as follows:
- 50% Destruction : 1x Bilitrium I - 75% Destruction: 2x Bilitrium I - 100% Destruction: 3x Bilitrium I
This is in addition to the other rewards that will remain unchanged, Kemocite Fragment included.
We hope you will enjoy this change and are looking forward to seeing more players progress with their Bridge.
We also hope you will enjoy this week’s event.
Last but not least, don’t forget to check our web store, there is a great Dilithium offer available! Click the banner in the Message of the Day to easily access the store.
The playwright Kelis and the EMH have partnered to create a new theatrical work based on the temporal anomaly crisis. As they argue over the play’s creative direction, Barclay tries (and fails) to get their attention regarding a potential threat to the production. Is Barclay simply suffering from stage fright and trying anything to get out of his starring role? Or is there a credible threat afoot?

You have one week left to complete the “Another Perspective” campaign!
Update about our next update, v9.2.0. We know a lot of you are eagerly awaiting this update as it will contain the requested change to lock Fleet Boss Battles Start to Admirals and Officers only.
We were hoping to be able to release 9.2.0 before the end of the year, that will unfortunately not be possible. That update will also contain an engine update, and these things always take longer than originally planned.
We’ll share more information soon on what 9.2.0 will contain.

Time in the galaxy may be in flux through the anomaly crisis, but it appears that has no impact on the galaxy’s “true” temporal course - the Romulan sun shows signs of its impending supernova. Meanwhile, efforts to relocate the Romulan people have been anything but smooth. And the Romulans who have come from across time have had their own impacts on the present. But try as they might, no one can interfere with the cosmos…can they?
