What is your dream ship?

Within the realms of relative balance, what do you long to fly?


More than anything else, I would love a KDF Kumari type bundle with disruptor ventral cannons. I would even forego a cloak or take a hull hit for it. I know exactly how I would build it too. And since the Kumari is a ENT design, why not use the D5 design from the same series.

    trolls will probably say "10 console dyson ships that arent a grind or locked in fleet or lobi stores"

    personally i'd like something like the bulwark dreadnought (statwise) with 2 hangerbays capable of fielding frigates and a sci ships shield modifier.

    Ori Mothership all the way.

    Joking aside, a VA or Fleet level D'Kyr.

    I don't see why saying that is trolling. As far as i'm concerned, it's a perfectly reasonable response to the grindiversary announcements.

    Frankly, a nine-console Dyson ship that isn't locked behind another obnoxious grind would be a dream come true.

    Dream ship?

    Hmmmm, Maybe a much more science oriented Galaxy.

    Something with at least a Lt Cmdr science slot.

    Something like that crossed my mind as well.
    Maybe take the Fleet Ambasador BO layout and swap the ensign tac for something else, maybe Science.
    Alternatively use the D'deridex layout and swap out an ensign there.;)

    Beyond that most of my dreamships are already in the game: Fleet Ambassador, Fleet K't'inga, Fleet D'deridex...they're all they way I like them.

    Could even use the boff layout from the Adapted BC.

    That ship plays like a science cruiser beautifully.

    Ship that exists in-game? Bugship, definitely.

    Otherwise: A TARDIS, a Dalek command cruiser, and that Krenim super-timeship of retconning.

    'Viable' is a word people on this forum should learn what it actually means before they use it.

    I'll go with Temporal Battle Cruiser with Aeon Temporal Shuttle Combat pet and Chroniton Cannons.

    Interior that's a cross between what we've seen of the Enterprise-J and the Wells.

    A Defiant, with secondary shields (where ANY shield array can be slotted), five forward weapons, five Tac consoles, a turn rate comparable to the BOP and JHAS, and an integrated battle cloak.

    :cool:

    I really like my Armitage, but I find the D'Kora fun, too. I also hate having to beg for invites onto Cell Ship Bridges so I can do the DOff missions. So I want an escort carrier with D'Kora-like "Battle Mode" and a Cell Ship Bridge.

    With a TOS Connie skin. Hey, you said dream.

    Balaur-class Gorn dreadnought. The old version, which looked like it was at least 3km long. As a supercarrier, with a Recluse BOff layout, More hull and crew, lower turnrate, impulse and inertia ratings, +5 power to everything but engines.

    6 BOffs, 8 weapons, a hanger, secondary deflector 10 consoles and all the bonus abilities? Another great balancing job! :rolleyes:

    Heh, I might see fit to grant the other factions permission to similarly upgrade one of their ships in order to maintain balance, but the queston was about my dream ship, not someone else's. :rolleyes:

    You know, if all you're gonna do is fault everyone for failing your grand personal vision of "balance," you could have just skipped the thread and discussed this with yourself. :rolleyes:

    A Tholian Destroyer.

    Five fore weapons, three aft. Heavy tactical and moderate science seating. Turn rate of seventeen, one hanger bay. A webbing attack console, like on the Tarantula. And a battle cloak, because why not. Handwave it somehow; surely the Tholians have cloaking technology with all the ships they're constantly commandeering. A battle mode. And it comes standard with a Tholian boff.

    Oh and it plays http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/havoc this on the bridge when you go into battle.

    I must admit that since I got my Vesta class, the more I use it - the more it grows on me. I do find the original design by Mark Rademaker very attractive and that's the one I use without any mixmatching.
    And with the second deflector coming soon - I think I'll love my Vesta even more. :)

    A T4 or T5 version of the Miranda and/or D7.

    I had a lot of fun with upgraded versions of TOS-era ships in another Star Trek game from long ago.

    Keeping within the theme of the game, I desire ...

    For a Federation Cruiser, a revamped Star Cruiser Refit that stands as a true reflection of the Assault Cruiser Refit (that being a Star Cruiser Refit with a Lt. Cmd Science Boff Station). In the past, I have favoured a Galaxy Class (two actually) with the stats of the Assault Cruiser Refit and this proposed Star Cruiser Refit, but then the Galaxy seems less favorable with Cryptic.

    For the Klingon Defense Force, I desire a Cruiser that matches (in Boff Stations at least) that of the D'Deridex Refit.

    For my latest Romulan Republic character, I'll settle for the Tal Shiar Adapted Battle Cruiser. I'm working on this, but currently the price stands too high.


    Thinking outside the box though, I'd settle for a Goa'uld Ha'tak.

    You didn't specify STO only ... though I assumed that's what you implied ... but if it doesn't have to be STO only, I'd be stuck between wanting a TARDIS and a Super Star Destroyer and the Millenium Falcon. If it has to be STO only, however, an Odyssey with the manuverability of a Sao Paolo would be perfect for me.

    I'll see that and raise you:

    A T5 Constitution with the T5 Excelsior's basic setup.

    That would TRIBBLE off the haters a bit more I bet.
