    I wish we had a couple other views of the designs.
    In any case, I went with Beta. I'm intrigued by the pylons. They look to be coming off of the pod which is above the main hull section. The saucer shape is also interesting and different. If this is going to be a carrier, I'd go for a more bulky look. This isn't supposed to be sleek and sexy, it's supposed arrive and drop off the kids.

    Beta, because it looks like a horseshoe crab

    I like the top down look on Alpha but am not so wild about the side view. I despise the top down ultra wide view on Beta but like the side view a lot more than Alpha. I had to go with Alpha because Beta's dorsal view is just to ugly to build.

    Saucer: Alpha
    Hull: Beta
    Nacelles: Beta
    Pylons: Alpha
    Strut: Alpha

    So I give Alpha a shot

    For me, it's just got to be Beta. For crying out loud, Alpha's profile looks like a cruise ship with nacelles. [engage friendly banter detectors] You Alpha folks aren't really bad. You're just wrong. o:) [disengage banter detection]

    Alpha. Althought Beta's hull is better looking.

    Team Alpha.

    I like four nacelles. Although, I don't care for one set being smaller than the other set. Unless the ship has dual-vector capability. I can't imagine a carrier reflecting that. So four nacelles to identical scale if the design gets that far along.

    I like the sleek profile of Beta! Not a fan of the saucer though. Id like to see a hybrid of Beta and Theta...

    Alpha, which looks like the "Jupiter Class" is not doing it for me at all.

    Alpha, it looks nicer. It's no Omega but it's nice. Plus it has a wide hull and 4 nacelles so it looks more like a carrier than Beta.​​

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    I like both ships, but I voted Alpha.

    Beta. Way too many quad nacelle ships coming out. It also has a bit of a Nebula/Galaxy look to it (which is nice)

    Unless this ship is bloody huge and has a detachable saucer section, I don't particularly like the big ovoid fore-hull design. The multiple nacells close to the hull are also nice.

    Alpha. Beta's saucer is a nightmare.

    Typhon - look it up, closest thing to a canon large dedicated role carrier in the Federation

    Just for the saucer section and hull. The four nacelles don't do it. Now if you put the Beta nacelles on it that would be the best one.

    Voted for Beta simply because it was the least bad of the 2 options.
  • qjuniorqjunior Member Posts: 2,023 Arc User
    #TeamAlpha
    I like both the Alpha and Gamma designs, so in this poll, Beta is out.
  • tolmariustolmarius Member Posts: 400 Arc User
    Omega was the best of the lot. But Alpha is better than Beta

    If all models are already done, why not give us the opportunity to use any model or part we want?

    Beta because it looks like it can actually carry a hangar full of shuttles/fighters.

    Alpha, just because I prefer the spearhead/triangular style of saucer compared to the large Beta design...it looks too much like one of the Heavy Cruiser variants.

    Beta for me. I like the more traditional saucer. You need space to store the fighters and all the equipment to keep them going.

    I don't like the mission pod on the Beta, but it's otherwise what I want in a carrier.

    I think we have enough Prometheus variants already, but I am dead set against a heavy bottomed ship like the Beta idea.

    Voted Alpha

    Alpha looks like it has the mission pod from the nebula up top, and nebula is spiffy...so its alpha so far

    #TeamBeta. I like the rounder saucer and only two nacelles. Have the fighters launch from the bottom center line so the saucer can help sheild during launch.

    Beta's saucer looks like it got smushed and I think it looks awkward. Alpha, on the other hand, looks nice and sleek enough that I would be proud rather than embarrassed to be seen in one. ;)
