Romulan playable starship

There is a variety of Romulan playable starships currently available in Star Trek Online. Although Warbirds form the backbone of the Romulan military, there are other ships which behave more like their Federation and Klingon Defense Force counterparts. Romulan players can also fly almost any ship of their respective ally - the Federation or the Klingon Empire. Players of other factions can also fly almost any Romulan starship.

Warbirds

 * Main article: Warbird

Warbirds – the most iconic of Romulan vessels – have formed the backbone of the Romulan military for centuries. With the destruction of Romulus, these Warbirds have become a lasting symbol of the once mighty empire’s strength – as well as a new home for some of the many refugees in the wake of their planet’s destruction.

While Warbirds make up the majority of the Romulan fleet, there are several non-Warbird starships available to Romulan captains.
