I did a search for this but nothing came up, i apologize if this has been done before but i was wondering what starship you'll be in, if available, and the name you've picked.

If my fears about this game is unwarranted i'll be in this:

 

Miranda Class-Crusier

My ship name: U.S.S. Botany Bay (if available)

I've always been fond of the Miranda class myself but would be more than happy with an Akira if the Miranda is just too old. They are somewhat similar in configuration so either would be good.

 

Akira Class

 

I haven't really thought about a name yet. I'll come up with something closer to launch probably.

Feh, the Miranda is still is service....but in the process of being decommissioned i hope they do incorporate the older designs though...from a tactical standpoint it would be hard to determine what it's capable of, if you're able to add weapons/hardpoints that normally wouldn't go.

I was thinking of having an all Orion Slave Girl crew and calling my ship the U.S.S. Playboy. Too over the top?

I don't think so.

Generally speaking, any ship in a Star Trek game which has a large amount of torpedoes, drones or fighters as its main armaments wins the battle.

Best tactics are to use fighters, drones or shuttles to extend sensor range and minimize detection of the ship.  Once the enemy is discovered, either launch available fighters/drones, or move in and fire off a swarm of drones or torpedoes.

My preferred ships have a small profile, fast speed and make extensive use of remote vehicles or weapons.  Phasers... bah, those are defensive weapons.

Example:
USS Adventure (I didn't make this one, found this nice one on the net, better than a side pencil sketch)



I like that pic, it is sleek, four engines for power and speed, with six fighter bay doors (though I would replace them with torpedoe or drone launchers).

If a Klingon, well a Battleship:




Although I would prefer a Mercenary Ship...  oh well.


For you ship fans out there, here's a good comparison chart of Sci-Fi ships....



All pictures are links and will pop-up a new window or tab.

And that is why...

Conservatives' pessimism is conducive to their happiness in three ways. First, they are rarely surprised -- they are right more often than not about the course of events. Second, when they are wrong they are happy to be so. Third, because pessimistic conservatives put not their faith in princes -- government -- they accept that happiness is a function of fending for oneself. They believe that happiness is an activity -- it is inseparable from the pursuit of happiness.

give me a bird of prey and a glassful of blood wine to wash down my gHak.

 

i wish they'd set it during the klingon/federation hostilities of the movies era, when a bird of prey was an equal match for the best starfleet had to pull out with the right tactics. i just hope that ppl going klingon will be down for galactic pvp and join my armada against starfleet.

KERPLAH!

I'm going with the NX-91001 right now. This is the first new ship design of STO. I love the Sovereign Class and this ship is the successor to it.

This ship will be bitc%%in!! 

 

Second choice will be an Akira.

I like the Big D fron TNG as well, but it seems outdated now.

I would rather fly a Runabout Shuttle and take my chances in that against any ship any day, or any pirate vessel. If those choices arent there then I would command a Achilles class ship. No Sovies or Prommies for me.

For the number of times that SOE has destroyed the game I loved, even after it was very clear it was not what the majority wanted, I feel that they should start making donations to us- Paradox (SWG)
