Star Trek Online previews the ships of the Section 31 lockbox

Bzowt.

Starfleet’s ruthlessly goal-focused Section 31 tends to stick in the memories of fans; it’s a shadowy organization that seems to be at once everywhere and nowhere, unseen unless it wants to be. So it might seem a little odd that players in Star Trek Online will be able to fly one of the organization’s secretive science ships, which sports a transformation option, tractor drones, a special cannon, and the nigh-invisible dark mode… but then, maybe Section 31 wants you to think it’s a prize.

Klingon players aren’t left out, of course; their intelligence cruiser, the Na’Qjej is a very different animal, focused on kinetic damage with a sped-up charge that does significant damage and bonus damage from torpedo weapons. Both ships are also equipped with passive masking abilities to keep enemies unaware of the ship locations, so captains with a penchant for intelligence operations would be well-served by either ship. Just be careful about what you put in your personal log.
