Reinforcements have arrived

Yea, but the D7 spaceframe (which became the K'Tinga class, much as the Constitution spaceframe became the Constitution refit) is at least 150 years old, so it probably was time for an upgrade...

It can arguably be said that the D7 and the K'tinga have nothing but the same shape in common, as the K'tinga was a leap and 2 bounds forward over the D-7 in terms of technology.

And if they wanted to add the Miranda, they'd add...the Miranda. This Miranda they plan on adding is just another ship the Federation side never needed.

I think a lot of work has been added for the purpose of countering destroyer rushes.

I prefer added counters over nerfed fed destroyers any day.

Agreed

You know, I reckon the seemingly unbalanced destroyers is just the N-Squared law kicking us in the ass...

Hey Optec, any chance at a well lit render of the new Rhienn class, the texture style is great from what I can see.

what about some of those neat interactive displays you presented many of the previous designs with?

IIRC, the canon Miranda will be in FO (i think they were planning it to be either summoned from Starfleet Command or be one of the "Uncommon" ships. Same for the canon Excelsior to my knowledge).

Wasn't there a screenie sometime last year with a Miranda in it? (it was fighting alongside a Sovereign).

I dunno about the screen, but yes, the canon Miranda will be included as a map object in a future release of Fleet Operations.

Oh so they will have the canon Miranda as a map object, and the one they made up as the only buildable one. Well that just solves everything doesn't it? Time for me to redownload, ignore all the other made up ships, and play the mod for the sake of maybe getting a canon Miranda on a few select maps.

Calm down mate... I like the Miranda to, but that's no reason to go all pshyco on us...

Starfleet, being smart, builds new ships.  Live with it.

Well, I guess that makes them smarter than the Aermican navy...
