Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: coolhandab on August 24, 2004, 10:01:45 PM
No Contest. The true D'deridex, complete with crew of 15,000 sailors and marines, massive energy torpedo launcher on the nose, (didn't two or three of those blast cruisers apart?) and rapid-fire pulsed disruptors powerful enough to slag a destroyer in seconds. And of course looks awesome.

If crew is scarce it's tough to beat the Defiants, with a weapon power / size ratio 10 times greater than the Fed Battleships. Looks awesome too : )


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: coolhandab on August 24, 2004, 10:04:34 PM
Incidentally the Norexans were developed because D'deridexs were so friggin expensive and crew intensive, more for planetary invasions and coercion than straight deep space combat. The Norexan disruptors are more powerful, but it lacks the energy torpedo of death. So not counting the Borg due to gross ugliness the D'deridex is the "best" ship if best is most powerful.

Post by: KL0K on August 24, 2004, 11:00:59 PM
as u say it, im missing the rapid pulse disruptors at the d'deridex here in fleetops... *thinkin*

Post by: -=B!G=-The Black Baron on August 24, 2004, 11:14:07 PM
Emmm the dominion dreagnought is more powerfull than d'deridex I think B)  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: Overlord/Zeich on August 24, 2004, 11:27:12 PM
My personal Favorites are D'deridex, Norexan, Achilles, Promethus.  I believe the dominion dreadnought is more powerful than a D'deridex.

Post by: coolhandab on August 24, 2004, 11:37:13 PM
Does anyone remember the DS9 episode where it took a dominion battleship like ten minutes to blow the USS Valiant up? (Defiant class). I know it was stupid DS9, but still, unless the dominion has amazing shield generators (and their bug destroyers have crap for shields, another DS9 episode a Fed runabout blew one away) a Warbird would smoke it into ashes with the energy torpedos, unless it ran out of energy first or something : )

But I'm willing to accept that in a non-DS9 environment all those white torpedo launcher things on the Dom ship would turn stuff to ash pretty quickly.

Post by: Vincent Vega on August 26, 2004, 08:39:32 PM
I am glad to see the topic i started didn't blink out of exsistance while i was in York, Maine. :lol:  My personal favorites are the Defiant, Excelscior (Standard), Ambassador, Galaxy, Klingon K'tinga class/D7, Negh'Var and of course the Constitution Refit.

in Reply to the Power of the Romulan Warbird, between the Fire power of a Warbird and Negh'Var I'd go with the Negh'Var in a heart beat.
The following stats are from the Daystrom Institute Technical Library: www.ditl.org

Negh'Var:
2 x Mark 18 pulse disrupter cannon (These are what it fired at DS9 in "Way of the Warrior" that blew out the shield grid in one volley.)
18 x Mark 12 disrupter cannon, total output 205,000 TeraWatts
8 x Triple Fire photon torpedo tube + 2,200 torpedoes

D'deridex Warbird:
6 x Class 21 disrupter cannon, total output 65,000 TeraWatts
12 x S2 photon torpedo tube + 800 torpedoes  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: -=B!G=-The Black Baron on August 27, 2004, 12:24:52 AM
I like the Negh'Var more too  :D

first off I would like to state that the dasctrom instute is extreamly incorect in many values and has no ofissial follow up second a d'derix has plasma torps THE MOST POWERFUL WEPON IN STARTREK  :omg:  ha ha ha ha ha! and is powered by an artifical quantom singularaty (or tiny black hole) third off a d'derdix has 2 singel shot high energy puls disruptors rapid fire beam and puls disruptor bank and a r type plasma launcher in the front and in the back x4 beam disruptors I am not shure of power out put but a singel r plasma can turn cronum to crap ha ha
not to mention the fed had to run to survive a singel blast cupel that with enceratibly powerful dis ruptors hmnm it is hard to see if a space dock can actuly defeat one a war bird is truly a WAR bird! ha ha ha the romulan empire reings supream as is said in st 47 sig

Post by: Vincent Vega on August 27, 2004, 03:10:33 PM
I still agree with Hyperion. I have never seen the so called Plasma Torpedo Launcher shot from the Dereidex Warbird ( sorry if it is mispelled. ^_^ ) Oh and Daystrom Institute is cannon as it gets, sorry it just is, if you have a more cannon star trek web page please give it to me! :D  :omg:

Akira, Norexan, Sovereign, D'Deridex, and Excelsior Class in that order.

why?
Akira--cool looks, heavy firepower
Norexan--Not a intimdating as the D'Deridex, but far more deadly
Sovereign--beautiful, fought the Scimitar surprisingly well
D'Deridex--intimdating, Romulans main ship
Excelsior--cool looks, we see lots, was biggest gun of it's day

I do love TMP ships but they lack the colors of the TNG ships. [Red bussard collectors, gotta love them] But i  am glad to see my thread has sewn it self into something greater. [i need to die for that last pun :lol: ] i still think the klingon ships are really awesome and it seems people have been negelcting to mention them. TELL ME! :blink:  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: KL0K on August 29, 2004, 04:24:00 AM
i just like the roms ships more, cause of the huge, green stylish forms... klingon ships got too much edges for my opinion... and i dont like the klingons that much, after they joined the feds, they are like a guard dog... :huh:

Probably the Sovereign. Tough and powerful, and pretty, too.
Not my very favourite ship class, though.

Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: Vincent Vega on September 03, 2004, 01:41:24 AM
aha, no. In all my trekkie-ness i would say the defiant is out gunned 3 to 1 by a Soverign Class.  ^_^  My flagship would Probably be a Galaxy Class though.  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: Captain_Steve on September 04, 2004, 06:51:17 PM
ah, but the galaxy is a very big target, especially for suicidal Jem'Hadar (remember the Odyssey?). i know the sov is just as long, but the galaxy beats it for width. hell, the deflector dish might as well be an enormous bull's eye. you better have a trigger happy tactical officer in one of those things.

but they are the cadillacs of Starfleet come to think of it...


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: [RFO]MIGHTY ROM on September 04, 2004, 08:39:56 PM
i dont think trigger happy people get asigned to lage batleships
too many bad situations to be in with a trigger happy weapons officer

i like the cadilac discription
ts an suv star ship
probably an escelade with 1000 crew in the show

Bulls eye eh? I think i would have a major refit of my personal Galaxy class. Assuming i was a fleet admiral i could probably do it. Not like the X but i would have the Voyager Armor from endgame around the Bussard collectors and the Deflector dish., :omg:  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: Vincent Vega on September 05, 2004, 03:27:08 PM
the Galaxy class also has a 360 degree weapons coverage, the odysee fired a few phasers and that was it. It pisses me off you never see a galaxy class fight to its full potential, the only time was BOBW on TNG.

Well your posts were just as pointless as his second one, so you're just as bad :P Only kiddin guys. :)

Meh, best ST ship IMO would still be the Excelsior (Original or Refit). Seeing the Ent-B glide from the shipyard in Generations, or the battle between the Lakota and the Defiant in DS9 (in which the Lakota OWNED the Defiant :D) was amazing.

Or the Nebula class, perhaps (i'll say 3rd place). Nice big multi-purpose ship. Romulan D'Deridex too, for the same reasons (2nd place).


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: PREATOR DEFIANT on October 05, 2004, 12:46:54 AM
It's a good looking design, and I think the Lakota woulda won if the writers haden' made it possible for the speed of the Defiant to magically make every shot from the Lakota miss.

Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: Lumpybob on October 13, 2004, 12:53:02 PM
the soverign is better than the galaxy because its design eliminated one key flaw. the goose-neck between the sauce section and the stardrive section. you shoot that out, and the entire ship breaks in two and blows up! KABOOOM!!!!!!


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: Vincent Vega on October 13, 2004, 07:39:09 PM
I heard from STAR TREK: THE MAGAZINE that the Soverign can actually seperate in the same fasion as the Galaxy Class. B)  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: [TD]Roach on October 13, 2004, 07:47:44 PM
a seperation part for a galaxy or soveirgn so pointless, the seperation cycle is slow and a soveirgn isn't a luxury cruise ship like the galaxy where they have families and stuff on board, it's more of a warsghp so what is the point of a separation except a poor excuse not to use escape pods  when the core explodes


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: PREATOR DEFIANT on October 13, 2004, 08:58:05 PM
Sovern can't separate, for one I have never seen a game or something that says it can. 2, I think Picard would have done so in Nemesis.

Post by: Vincent Vega on October 14, 2004, 11:57:43 PM
Hey, dont everybody kill me at once. (bullets and knives piercing organs isnt fun for the person being pierced. :D ) I am only relaying what i heard from STAR TREK: THE MAGAZINE and supposedly that is a cannon source so believe what you want to believe.  and to seperate it requires you to drop shields, you really think Baldy would have done so with the scimitar breathing down thier necks?  :sweatdrop:  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?

As John Eaves designed the whole Enterprise-E and as the drawings are genuine drawings by John Eaves, I would say: "Yes, the Enterprise-E is supposed to have saucer separation capabilities."

However, it's always in question if something that has never been in an episode ore movie is canon or not. That depends on your personal point of view, I think.

wasn't the enterprise-E designed to look like the A at a certain angle?

I still believe it was an ability never implemented.

OK MJP, you're right I see. But I think the ability to sepertate the saucer-section was made in an early stadium of developing the Sovereign and they just thought "Why not make an article in the Star Trek magazine about it. It will interest the Fans."

i cant agree, if you coudl see the entier atricla you would understand, also if you read the section of text i have there you see that the ship is to have souce seperatoin.

Oh that dosen't mean anything, there is overwhelming evidense that it does not separate, therefore, I win.

well for starters my previos post. lol the one with the Images and text? From the Cannon magazine. lol two i have a goten this from,

http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schemati...leet_ships2.htm (http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/starfleet_ships2.htm)

Quote
2) Pre-production drawings of the Sovereign class show a saucer separation. In separated mode, the quantum torpedo tube/captain's yacht is connected to the engineering hull. This configuration is also reproduced in the parts of the AMT/Ertl model kit. It is unlikely, however, that the ship is actually separable.
 

Note the last sentence cant not be sadi to be cannon becouse it was not said by any one in the ST franchise, BUT also note that the model was made to look seperatible. that is cannon.

I would like to see your proof as you ahve not given any. all you say is that there is lack of proof that seperatoin is true...but i have given the proof.  


Title: Best Star Trek Ship?
Post by: PREATOR DEFIANT on October 17, 2004, 06:10:18 AM
Theres no proof showing it has separation and all the proof needed to show it cannot separate. Have you ever seen a game where it can separate? I'm guessing no, therefore chances are it can't separate. You seem bent on a hope that is all but impossible. Resistance is futile, canonism will prevail.

Have you ever seen a Defander class in game? or the nebula variants? if its in a game or not dose not count souly alone, you must take into account all the arias of the franchise.

Listen, you havent shown me any definitive proof, and i've shown all the proof required. Only thing from you i've heard about is this magazine, well that apparently isn't good enough. You might as well let this drop because i'm certainly not ;)

I actually don't click on others links usually, and when I do rarly look around. Just tell me why you think the Sovern can separate (and make it good because so far all you've given is crap) and show me, because I really think your wrong and I WILL go to the end of the earth to show you i'm right. It's in the job discription.

Post by: Lumpybob on October 19, 2004, 12:56:52 PM
this is the article exactly from Star Trek:Magazine. :cry: why  :cry:  why did they cancel it :cry:

HIDDEN ABILITY

    John also took the trouble to work out exactly how the E's saucer would separate, even though this had never been mentioned in the script. " I just knew that the saucer separation was part of it. I figured that was something that always had to happen, and I wanted to make sure it had been worked out beforehand. So it's already been established where the separation line and the break lines should be.
     "I wanted the two parts of the ship to look very indepenant of each other and not as if they had to be together. I drew a version with the saucer off where it looks like kind of a retro dart. I wanted that part of the ship to look very fast but also aggressive."
     For all the changes, John says still has many, many traces of Matt Jefferies original design. "There was a lot of stuff I wanted to keep from the old ship. There were two triangles on the saucer, which I found out later were supposedly landing gear, and the big scoop on the back. Even though we had to change the ship, I wanted to show that these things still exist.

I read your posts, how could we be having this convo if I didn't? I said, like I said the first time, that I don't usually click on links. I think you should have been able to convence me easier had the Sovern actually ever had separation.

Go and look for something that says a Sovern dosen't separate? I don't need to, it's understood. I know it dosen't separate like the Federation Starbase dosen't separate or the Saber class dosen't separate. I have basically looked at everything there is to look at and I am not impressed.
