Snow Cone Capone posted:All you jerks posting ship names without ship photos make me want to Odo grunt Pah. Anyway, most of the ships I mentioned in my last post. The Einstein class (or Kelvin-type, depending on who you ask) The Freedom class (USS Franklin, NX-324) The Kelvin Timeline Constitution class (USS Enterprise, NCC-1701) The Armstrong class (USS Armstrong, NCC-1769) The Mayflower class (USS Mayflower, NCC-1621), and sorry for the quality of that picture, that's the best picture Memory Alpha has. The Newton class (USS Newton, NCC-1727) The Aegis class (USS Aegis, NX-1787) from Star Trek: Bridge Crew The Vengeance class (USS Vengeance), and I don't care if it's canonically called the Dreadnought class, STO calls it the Vengeance, so that's what I'm gonna call it. The Nautilus class 26c. Science Vessel The Theseus class 26c. Escort The Sagittarius class 26c. Cruiser The Paladin class 26c. Battlecruiser That is a lot of ships.

It's probably that little white bump on the dorsal view, near the aft end of the stern section. (And, uh, I apologize for the 26c. ship images, I didn't think they were going to be that transparent as far as reading the text.)

You know, I don't hate any of the STO designs. They clearly convey "Federation" and "more advanced" than the 24th century designs, and they're also alien as hell.

Just make a USS Dali where each room has a random direction. Like you walk down the hallway towards the bridge, the door opens up, and the bridge is upside down and you have to jump and do a flip to get on the bridge.

The temporal ships from STO are a bit forced because they're all meant to be illustrations of a lineage, they introduced them all as 23rd/26th century evolutions and the general style/detail of the 26th century ships all had to be based on the Enterprise-J        There's probably 24th century ships that could slot in the middle of each too but I can't be bothered figuring it out. (Okay the four nacelle ship is clearly constellation and then cheyenne and the daedelus is the pasteur and agh shut up brain) Also, the Romulans and the Klingons each got a 2-mile-long 26th century super-ship as a counterpart to the Enterprise-J, and I like their ones a lot more than the J, especially the romulan one.

Ranger, Akira, Paladin Gemini, Constellation, Sagittarius Daedalus, Olympic, Nautilus I'm stuck on what's between the Perseus and the Theseus classes. Maybe the Intrepid??? There's also the Atlas class Prototype Dreadnought Cruiser which... doesn't seem to have a 24/25c. or even a 26c. equivalent? (I know jack about the Valkis and the Durgath because I don't have any Romulan or Klingon characters, so can't help there. But the Valkis looks awesome, at least!)

I'm rewatching DS9 again and I just got to the two-parter where they travel back in time to the mid 21st century where there's class riots and poo poo, and at the end Bashir is like "There's one thing I don't understand... how could the people of the 21st century have let things get so bad?" and Avery Brooks basically looks right into the camera at You, The Viewer and says "That's a good question". Best Captain.

It was sketchy for a minute but Odo found some nice friends and all is well in the galaxy.

That looks like a TOS-ified version of the Ark Royal from Starfleet Command II Cojawfee posted:I refuse to accept that it is as large as JJ claimed. That's dumb as poo poo. I agree. It's because of a pretty big inconsistancy in the effect for JJTrek though. Based on the size of the bridge windows, the JJPrise should be more or less the same size as the original, and I think that was the original intention. But based on the shots of the shuttlebay, it's bigger than the Galaxy class. Eventually the bigger version was declared as the canon one.

My only gripe is that the thermometer on the wall in that ep a) is in Celsius and b) shows 15 which is pretty cold for September in San Francisco?

They always use proper measurements in Star Trek instead of dumb American poo poo, it's nice. And 15 is just above the average low in San Fran!

there's a klingon troop transport from disco that looks like a gold-plated vw van. it's a tie between that and the science tractor from the last short as my favs. just absolutely workman-like space ships.

Seems like the coolest Trek ships are hidden in everything except the TV shows. How is STO anyway? I was in the beta for Gods and Heroes before they canned it entirely and was surprised STO even came out since it seemed like the devs were straight up going out of business. Never tried the STO beta since I can't imagine what a good Trek videogame could be like, let alone one twisted into MMO shape.

The design for the old-timey one's been around since the 70s, it's one of those not-canon things that's been around so long it's basically become canon as one of the first Federation ships.
