It is, but only as map object.

Not in mine!

What version of FO you use ? If 3.0, try this map.

Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations - Unity Outpost

I probably should have made that map a little bigger.

I would like to see more ships in the game and it can be made to where balance would still be kept.  Think of it this way you can have 4 Galaxy class ships or you can have 1 Galaxy, 1 Ambassador, 1 New Orleans and 1 Cheyenne. They can all have the same stats and special abilities just different ship models.  I'd rather have four different ships than 4 ships of the same class just personal preference.  As for the older ships like the Constellation.  There are already 2 refits of older ships in FO the Excelsior and Miranda.  Maybe someone with modeling experience could give this ship a new look along with the Constitution.  As for the other races Dominion could have some Cardassian ships, Romulans could have some Reman ships, and Filefront is full of Klingon ships that aren't in Fleetops but you'll have to get permission to use them of course but thats no big deal (as well as Federation ships) the Borg are pretty much covered though not much to add to them.

Oh btw this mod is awesome as is but there is no harm in adding more stuff to it to spice it up.  New Orleans class rules add this above all others.

heres an idea, you have you shipyard or two that can build the newer ships, and then on that builds just random old and new ships, and you can only build like one fleet of the newer ships from the shipyards, so that a balance of ships is manintain and you have lots of other ships like(for feds) constellation aegian, miranda 2, the original miranda, soyuz, so variety, not 70 soverigns

That's why I'd like to have old ships buildable too; I dig the new models but having a fleet of primarily Sovereigns, Excelsior II's, and Intrepids gets dull fast. Having old ships buildable at a yard will at more diversity to the game. Although the new models are good, I'm still more fond of the older designs.

I think older ships will be warp-in.
