Legacy of Romulus

Star Trek Online: Legacy of Romulus is the first expansion pack to the MMORPG Star Trek Online.

Overview
Legacy of Romulus is set in the year 2409, three decades after Star Trek Nemesis and twenty-two years after the Hobus disaster seen in Star Trek. The Romulan Star Empire has splintered as a result, with two distinct factions: The Empire under Empress Sela, who holds power through fear and deception from her stronghold on Rator III, and a new Romulan Republic under Proconsul D'Tan, arising from the colony of "New Romulus" with the aid of their former enemies, the Federation and the Klingon Empire.

The expansion allows for playable Romulan characters. The player starts out as part of a group of survivors settled on an agricultural colony, separate from both Sela's regime and the New Romulans.

Romulan players will have access to their unique vessels, including Birds-of-Prey, escorts, and the mighty  warbirds. In addition, they will be able to take command of vessels belonging to their allies. (STO website: Ask Cryptic: Legacy of Romulus)
