I agree Rhyno has the right idea if the purpose is to bring it back to a "fixed" Armada 2, but I think FO has moved beyond that into it's own paradigm, so to speak. And yeah the Nova is a crappy science ship that an Intrepid can blow to pieces (as seen in the Voyager episodes, after about five seconds fighting the Nova was about to get blasted when by some trickery of it's captain and outright incompetance by Voyager's officers they escaped).

And yes the Norexan/Valdore is way, way, way too weak in FO Beta 2, but that may have been fixed in version 3. Anyone have any info on that?

Why is it too weak??
Its about as strong as the d'derix class warbird and I dont think it should be any stronger, besides in nemesis 2 were destroyed rather quickly by schimitar, and look how long the enterprise managed to resist

Yep, the Norexan is some kind of faster warbird, with newer technology and stuff, but the giant d'deridex is still the backbone of the fleet and at least as strong ans the norexan to speak in military terms

OK ... I guess it all depends on what sources you believe. My own personal view is that hero ships like the Enterprise or Voyager or Defiant are never really destroyed when they should be, so you can discount the batttle with the Scimitar. Besides, the Remans would have complete technical readouts of the Valdore and know exactly where to shoot for maximum damage. Second, the D'deridex performed very poorly in the Dominion war, and has been quite easily destroyed in the past in various episodes of both VOY and TNG. The rationale I've heard is that it was originally a marine transport ship for assaulting planets and really isn't well armored. There's no way the Norexan should have a weaker hull, assuming the Romulans have learned from their past errors.

But in the end I'm a huge fan of the Tavara (what I think the Valdore should really be) so I'm kinda biased

I think that the D'deridex has always been a battleship, and its a primery ship of the romulan star empire so it must be quite powerful . But of course I could be wrong

is it just me are are all teh rommies fans just fixated on the nemises movie that totally gives the worst impression of the rommies. i mean tal shiar can't even stop a bomb in the senate? and besides that i think that the valdore or whatever ship is used in that mvie is a bit overrated like all ships are in ST movies.

you mean the scimitar? the Valdore is the name of one of the Norexan class ships

posted on September 21st, 2004, 7:06 pm

yeah that ship. I can't really recall what ship it is because eventually (after 30 mins or so ) i got fed up with the movie. it wasn't good.

Yeah it's a shame that the TNG farewell movie was not well written. I certainly enjoyed the scenes where the Enterprise-E was engaging the Scimitar, websites had to be rewritten after everyone saw the dozens of quantum torpedos it could spit in a few seconds! Very cool stuff. Kind of gives new meaning to "fire all weapons!"
