Gameplay-Strategy #12 - Battle Triangle

All ships when playing either PvP (Player vs Player) or going against the Yellow Hostiles as part of a mission, fall under the Battle Triangle, which stacks certain ships with an advantage over others. This enhancement can be increased by using Offensive officers on the bridge, or the Battle Triangle can be broken to level the ships against each other by using Defensive officers on the bridge.

The list of officers per ship type is not a Bridge lineup, but it is a recommendation of officers to use on that type of ship. Stack for synergy and special abilities to get the most advantage of the officers you have. By building your crews correctly, you can have great success against players.

There are 3 officers specifically for either breaking the Battle Triangle, or enhancing it. These special officers are:

Kang (Klingon - Accuracy Enhancement)

Charvanek (Romulan - Armor Piercing Enhancement)

Marcus (Federation - Shield Piercing Enhancement)

As with any officer, these special officers don't work really well until they are promoted:

These officers are also linked to the total stats of the officers on the ship
