Yeah we will never see it in-game i know...but i just had a (so i think) nice idea of a Galaxy Class refit. I am not good with rendering stuff but I have a pretty cool picture in my head ;)

Galaxy Class Refit/Heavy Frontline Reconnaissance Cruiser

Take the Galaxy X and put a Nebula Class Style Sensor Pod on the Engineering Hull instead of the third Warp Nacelle. Stretch the Ship a bit to make it more 2409-ish looking. Swap the Phaser Lance Ability to a special Weapon only mountable on this Ship.

Science Ship
Hull: 34.000
turn: 9
Shield: 1.15
Sensor Abillities
Has a special Forward Phaser Lance Weapon. Does massive one-shot Damage but draws exsessive Weapon Power and has long recharge - (does DPS round about like a normal phaser dual beam).

This ship could be slottet between the Nebula (advanced research vessel) and the more agile vesta, as a slower more cruiser-like tanky ship.

I quickly kitbashed something together:

Just my 2 cents :D Let me know what you guys think :)

    Not bad.

    It is an interesting idea, but I agree with you it probably will not appear in game.

    Going to get this out.

    NOT ANOTHER BLOODY GALAXY THREAD!!! -.-

    Ok that over and done with, as much as your idea intrigues me, I would recommend trashing it. I honestly don't see a place for that kind of ship in game, regardless of it's chances of appearing. Now if you could add on more info, like perhaps like BOff setup, consoles, etc, then I could give a better judgment, but going off of just what you said, I would have to give a resounding no.
    It is said the best weapon is one that is never fired. I disagree. The best weapon is one you only have to fire... once. B)

    The only thing the Galaxy has going for it is its massive hull strength and you want to take that away?

    Well the Nebula has less than my suggested 34.000 (and the Vesta is goind to be made out of tin foil), that makes no sense either but somehow i had to stuck with STOs Cruiser/Sci/Escort scheme and thought Sci would be best fitting because of the Sensor Pod, so it cant have 40.000+ for balancing reasons ;)

    I am not going to suggest BOFF Layout etc I just wanted to share my Idea and give some basic thought to make it understandable :) maybe someone at cryptic finds the concept as intriguing as i do, and tinkers something for the future.
