Overview

With Alliance assistance from the Vulcans, the Romulan Republic engineered state-of-the-art science vessels. Like the Starfleet variants, Romulan Explorer Warbirds are very versatile, can load dual cannons and have a single hangar bay.

The Taenen-class Strategic Explorer Warbird was built from the ground up to incorporate shared technology from Starfleet's incredibly successful Multi-Mission Explorers as well as that found in modern Vulcan starships.

Class variants

Class	Informations
Galas class	SKIN UNLOCK: Galas Surveillance Explorer Warbird, 3,000 Vulcan influence is clearly visible in the design of all three Explorer Warbirds: aside from standard warp nacelles on the tips of ship's wings, all three ships feature an external singularity core, quite similar in design to the annular warp nacelle of the Vulcan D'Kyr-class Science Vessel.
Surhuelh class	SKIN UNLOCK: Surhuelh Reconnaissance Explorer Warbird, 3,000 Minor changes to the hull, such as sharper lines on the aft of ship's wings and hull section and slightly shorter warp nacelles, differentiate the Surhuelh class from the Galas-class Explorer. Its most distinctive feature, however, is that its singularity core "warp ring" is open.
Taenen class	SKIN UNLOCK: Free with this starship The Taenen class has a slightly differently shaped head section when compared to the other two variants, and sports the shortest warp nacelles. A more prominent feather pattern is visible on the aft of the ship's wings.

• Romulan Battle Cloak

Hangar bay

The Taenen Strategic Explorer Warbird comes equipped with a single wing of Scorpion Fighters.

The Elite variant of the Scorpion Fighter is obtainable from the New Romulus reputation system.

Carrier commands

• Carrier Command - Attack
• Carrier Command - Escort
• Carrier Command - Intercept
• Carrier Command - Recall

Sensor Analysis

Sensor Analysis is an active toggle ability. While maintaining a Sensor Lock on a target, the player gains a stacking effect that either improves the damage and power drain against an enemy, or improves any heal directed towards an ally. This effect stacks every 3 seconds, to a maximum of 6 stacks after 18 continuous seconds. To maintain the desired effect, the player must hold the sensor lock.

• Sensor Analysis

Singularity

As a Romulan Warbird, the Taenen-class Strategic Explorer Warbird comes with built-in Singularity abilities. These abilities do not automatically rank up when acquiring higher tier Warbirds. These powers build in severity based on the charge built up by the ship's Singularity Core.

• Plasma Shockwave
• Quantum Absorption
• Warp Shadows
• Singularity Jump
• Singularity Overcharge

Subsystem Targeting

The Taenen-class Strategic Explorer Warbird comes with built-in Subsystem Targeting abilities. These built-in abilities stay at Rank I and do not automatically rank up when acquiring higher tier Science starships. They are separate from Subsystem Targeting abilities gained through Tactical Space Bridge officer abilities.

• Target Auxiliary Subsystems I
• Target Weapons Subsystems I
• Target Engines Subsystems I
• Target Shields Subsystems I

Activating a subsystem targeting ability will upgrade all energy weapons to inflict a stacking power drain on the foe's targeted subsystem for the next 10 seconds. They will also have a small chance to knock the targeted subsystem offline for a short duration.

Special features

The Taenen Strategic Explorer Warbird comes equipped with the unique [Aux Plasma Dual Heavy Cannons Mk XII]. The weapon's damage is calculated using the ship's Auxiliary Power level instead of Weapon Power, and they consume Auxiliary Power when fired. It can be claimed multiple times, but is limited to Explore Warbird variants.

Scaling starship

This starship's equipment slots, base hull capacity and shield capacity scale as your level increases.

Equipment slots and seating

As you rank up every 10 levels, up to level 40, the ship's forward weapon slots, aft weapon slots, tactical console slots, engineering console slots, science console slots and available bridge officer (boff) abilities will slowly increase toward endgame capabilities:

Level						Boff seats
0-9	2	1	2	2	2
10-19	2	2	2	2	2
20-29	3	2	3	2	3
30-39	3	3	3	3	3
40+	4	3	4

Hull strength

This table shows how the ship's hull strength scales at each level. The base hull of all scaling starships is 10,000, which is then multiplied by the ship's hull modifier (0.95 for the Taenen-class Strategic Explorer Warbird), and then multiplied by the scaling multiplier below at each level.
