Design your dream ship

deaftravis05deaftravis05 Member Posts: 4,885 Arc User
Design your dream ship in here. I don't mean your dream battleship for STO, no but if you were given the resources to build any ship, taking any concepts you want that has been explored even in other literacy universes, what would you do?

I would design a massive city ship that can rest on Earth's oceans. It would be capable of intergalactic hyperdrive, but also capable of warp drive for the purpose of exploring space. It would be a blend of the Enterprise J and Atlantis. Hyperspace doesnt seem to allow for actual exploration of the space in between.

Why the blend? The closed, well armoured hull of Enterprise J, but the dorsal section of the saucer would have towers like the city ship of Atlantis. It would be sealed, but not fragile like Atlantis. If the shields collapsed, nobody would die from the vacuum. However I would change the design a bit. There would be the saucer with the city spires on the dorsal section. Then there would be a sphere connecting the City part with the engineering/industrial aspect of the ship. The sphere would have the agricultural sector. Then attached to the engineering/industrial section would of course be the warp engines. The sphere would blend into the saucer and engineering section so it wouldn't be that visible from the exterior, but an interior scan would show it.


Weapons: Atlantis drones, Asgard Beams and Star destroyer turrets.
Shields: Atlantis. As long as you got power, it stays up.
Engine: Both Star Trek Warp engines and SGA hyperdrive.
Manufacturing: Star Trek replicators and Andromeda harvesting of raw materials and conversion.
Power: ZPMs with the Romulan black holes for generators. They seem to have the ability to put out a lot of power. I'd use them to build more ZPMs :D

On board the city ship I would have a section of the ship built like a Dyson's sphere, but smaller, around a fusion reactor that would provide sunlight to the farms on the interior of the reactor's walls. Excess power can be stored in batteries.


This to me, is an ideal generational explorer. It would be a powerful battleship, capable of being the command carrier in a battlegroup, or just going out in deep space for centuries if necessary. It doesn't need to return to the shipyards for repairs, it can do it itself. It can manufacture shuttles, fighters or its own warships for escort as necessary. It's a floating city with its own shipyards, refineries, harvesters, farm fields and self-sustaining in all matters.

I'm an explorer. I don't want to be caught flatfooted. I don't want my crew to miss their families. I want to be able to go out a long way and still be able to return quickly.

Although I know there are others here who just wants a pleasure ship, something to putter around... or something to subjugate all threats. I'm curious to see your design.

    I'd modify your design and turn it into a planet killer using Vorlon technology but reinforce the shields so the ship could surf a star to renew it power like Destiny can in SGU

      why a planet killer?

      Because Star Destroyers don't.

      Because it's overkill

        tad bit overkill. I mean, the beams and the turbolasers should be enough. I mean I can kill a planet with what my ship has... but it'd be re-settable again... someday
      • admiralnatadmiralnat Member Posts: 22,432 Arc User
        My ship would be as follows:

        As based off the Avenger and Arbiter's designs:

        Weaponry: Various assorted phaser arrays, torpedo launchers supporting all sorts of torpedoes, temporal disruption devices, V.A.T.A. launchers, various other specially made phaser and torpedo weapon systems, and a modified quantum field focused phaser (like the Vesta's) that can channel virtually limitless amounts of power into an all powerful phaser beam, to destroy anything from a ship to a star. :o
        Shielding: Primary and secondary adaptive shields. More importantly, the shields can channel enemy weapon power into the ship's own systems, both making the ship both virtually invulnerable, and uses enemy's attacks against them.
        Engines: Impulse, Warp, and Transwarp drives. It'd also have the ability to enter and leave subspace at will.
        Manufacturing: Replicators of various sizes, some modified to create otherwise un-replicatable materials (but not antimatter)
        Power: Primary and secondary warp cores, and an experimental omega core. Cuz' reasons.
        Other: Hanger bays with various small craft, and a cloaking device with it's own, independent power source, allowing the ship to use all it's other systems while cloaked.

        It'd be larger than the typical Avenger, and with it's advanced replicators, it could build new fighters and other small craft if needed (granting it hanger bay capacity). Long story short, it'd be a present time Vengeance (and then some), complete with the power hungry Admiral. B)

        Winning.
        It's what I do. It's what I just did. It's what I'm about to do again. It's being undisputed emperor of an empire that cannot be disproved as the most powerful intergalactic empire in the entire universe; I always win, and everything I've won will definitely be won again... by me. It's my signature move, and thus, it's my signature. Problem, Sonic? Yeah, I mean you, Sonic, because you're being beat up, despite your being super. You can't even hit Shadow back, can you? Nope, he's too strong for you. Of course, I'm not Shadow, I'm the Super Emerald fueled fox that's pulling the strings; trust me, the fight would only be a few frames long if I were in it personally. Oh, and here's something for all you guys thinking you can win Last Post Wins 3.0; trust me, I'll be around a long while after the sun has already consumed the Earth while I sit out with the forum servers on Titan. Yes, I mean Titan... that comparatively little moon orbiting Saturn. It's a nice little place in a version of our solar system where the sun is a lot bigger. I mean, Mars will last longer than your precious Earth, but by then, it'll be one hot planet... and I figure Saturn's moon will be about the right temperate for a super-powered warlord. Oh, and trust me, I packed a lot of rings, and I mean a lot. Trillions, in fact, so I'll never run out of rings to power my super form. Besides, if I start to run out, I can just chaos control more rings into my reach. It's quite easy, really. You should try it. Granted, you'll never have the 7 Super Emeralds that I have in my possession, nor the Master Emerald that I've got hidden away somewhere... absorbed into my body thanks to Sonic logic, but whatever. I win. Again. I'm not kidding, either. Just check Last Post Wins, and if the last post isn't mine, it soon will be. Very, very soon. You can count on it. Seriously. By the way, if you're wondering, there's a really great Super Tails sprite sheet out there... somewhere... by some guy named shadow_91. These sprites are really great. Like, really good. Quality. Just like what I like to see in a sprite sheet. Also, credit to Joe T.E., his Sonic Battle style Super Sonic sprites have a great palette for a Super Sonic being beat up by Super Shadow, who's palette is from a Super Shadow sheet of unknown origin, but it turns out they were "borrowed" from a better sheet made by a certain Domenico. Oh, and the gif is actually a custom made super version of a similar gif, of which there are only 3 or 4 copies to be found by Google, and even then, evidently of an unknown source. Yep, it's one of those things. Stuff people have made, spread around, only for it to vanish and you to be the only person who still has a copy, not even knowing where it came from... like, literally at all. Oh, and anyone notice that Shadow's little chaos snap blast thingies are red and blue now? Yeah, I changed it. Problem, fans of purple? Yeah, I know you got a problem with that one, but you can just deal with it. After all, according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly... alright, alright, I'll spare you the entire Bee Movie script, just Google it if you want. By the way, ever wonder how your characters would've ended up if they evolved in another universe? Yeah, that. Think about it. Ok, so you probably didn't bother reading up to here, but whatever, here's a surprise for you guys over at ESD (RP) who were crazy enough to read this: Emperor Nat of the mcfreakin' Terran Empire is gonna be right all along! The universe is gonna go BOOM! *Thumbs up to the insanity*
        Oh, now don't tell me you want in on all this! Well, ok. Look this that Egg Pawn hanging outside your window, pointing his laser rifle at you, waiting for my next order. He's doing his part. He helps conquer the weak-minded. He roboticizes the weak-bodied. Heck, he even helps keep the useless people from causing any trouble, but you know what? Join. Find the closest Nataran Empire roboticization center near you and join the ranks, before the ranks find you. Oh, I know, you figure it must be so satisfying to know I basically rule the world now, and you know what? It is, but do you want to know the true definition of satisfaction? Well, let me tell you a little story. One day, you see a brand new event. They're giving out boxes that give old event stuff. Your dilithium is plentiful. You buy a whole lot of Phoenix packs on your main, and open them all. You get one epic token. Then, you decide, that since you have all the Breen ships and don't give a damn about the others, you exchange it for an ultra rare, and grab yourself a Jem'Hadar Attack Ship and for the hell of it, a Voth Bulwark. You open both, leaving the Bulwark in your vast masses of starships as you jump into the bugship and deck it out, deck by deck, into the most awesome Jem'Hadar ship you can. You fly it. You enjoy it. Eventually, you get bored and leave, leaving the old Bulwark never flown... until later. Your main is long complete. Your new alt main, based off some character you pulled out of nothing just to explain away some starship being in service without the command of your dear admiral, is also complete. Mostly. Their reps and doffs are hard at work, getting you stuff. You realize the potential, and head back for your dear admiral, pull the most Voth themed build you can out of thin air, and suit up in your giant ship in the shape of you know what. You head out... and cause all sorts of havoc. Enemies scream out your name as their very life is drained away by your swarms of Aceton Assimilators. They complain to the devs of your OPness when you revive yourself from death every time you die. Do you show any form of mercy? No. After all, this isn't the United Federation of Planets, this is mother frakkin' Starfleet, where you explore strange new worlds and kick butt never kicked before. Oh, and you realize that I just wrote another speech rivaling your own signature. Cool. Oh, wait, that's just the original draft, it is part of my signature now. Oh, and yes, I am aware that I have become a Canadian Regent; one day, sooner than you'd expect, we'll suddenly decide to take over the world and declare an "alliance", and I shall become it's Regent. You know, like the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance in the mirror universe of our beloved Star Trek. Oh, who'll we be taking over with? I dunno, maybe [REDACTED], or maybe aliens from outer space. Guess you'll have to wait and find out, won't we? Until then, don't ask too many questions, or else my Breen allies on Titania might pick up on your -- [REDACTED BY BREEN CONFEDERACY FOR REASONS] Also, psst... keep an eye out for flying Tribbles! Also walls. Big, great walls, separating entire continents apart. Walls patrolled by Tribbles. Flying Tribbles. Flying Nukara Tribbles. Don't worry, it's not like they were on Venus with a herd of Tholians or anything, they just like the extreme heat and brutal weather like acid rain and hurricane force winds as the norm. Oh, and definitely keep your eye out on any two-tailed foxes, because if they ain't glowing, they're definitely an imposter. Possibly an Undine, we caught one of those once in my place once. Oh, and if you find a two-tailed fox that doesn't like the cold... most certainly ask him to say sorry. If he refuses, DESTROY HIM WITH A DOOMSDAY MACHINE, BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH AGAINST SUCH AN OVERPOWERED IMPOSTER!

        tr;dr, I am winning last post wins 3.0. Thank you for your time.
        Oh, look, an explosion...

        Luckily, the omega core is well tested and if all else fails, I can simply eject the core and use transwarp to escape the omega explosion...

        My original design would be based on the Warlock class destroyer with the following design aspects

        Weapons: Dual Phase cannons in 4 banks with 3 forward Thanix cannons for kinetic damage and rear facing Thanix cannons with 2 phased beam arrays and a quantum torpedo point defence grid, phase banks on the flanks of the ship

        Hull: Armoured hull with no windows

        An internal CIC instead of the bridge being at the top of the ship with all other critical areas heavily armoured with both force fields and manual operated bulkheads

        Propulsion: Sublight engines for system patrols with warp engines for longer journeys and a jump drive for extreme range missions

        Crew comfort: communal living though segregated dorms and sanitation for male and female, senior officers get their own quarters with all crew sharing the mess hall, food replicators as standard with non perishable supplies as well

        Power plant: Transwarp core

        Shields: Primary, secondary and tertiary regenerative adaptive shields

            design my dream ship well for starters

            20 nacells because you can never have enough of those

            5 bridges one for every season give or take 1 or 2

            the captains chair MUST double as a toilet and have a molded plastic cup holder that can hold a 44oz drink preferably fountain

            also all the female officers must wear yoga pants and the only officers on the ship are women HAWT women

            10 bars star trekkin aint fun until your 3 sheets to the wind and 5 beers from warp 500

            OH and one giant bedroom those hot women get to sleep with in the captains room ....good times right?
            oops forgot about the super sized heart shaped bed with a tiger print and the mirrored ceiling and disco ball you can never dance enough :P
            and it needs roughly 25 warp cores

            and something in the likes of 8 hulls 7 saucer sections

            painted black with flames

            a spoiler on the rear

            spinners

            and some fuzzy dice in the mirror

Nope, he's too strong for you. Of course, I'm not Shadow, I'm the Super Emerald fueled fox that's pulling the strings; trust me, the fight would only be a few frames long if I were in it personally. Oh, and here's something for all you guys thinking you can win Last Post Wins 3.0; trust me, I'll be around a long while after the sun has already consumed the Earth while I sit out with the forum servers on Titan. Yes, I mean Titan... that comparatively little moon orbiting Saturn. It's a nice little place in a version of our solar system where the sun is a lot bigger. I mean, Mars will last longer than your precious Earth, but by then, it'll be one hot planet... and I figure Saturn's moon will be about the right temperate for a super-powered warlord. Oh, and trust me, I packed a lot of rings, and I mean a lot. Trillions, in fact, so I'll never run out of rings to power my super form. Besides, if I start to run out, I can just chaos control more rings into my reach. It's quite easy, really. You should try it. Granted, you'll never have the 7 Super Emeralds that I have in my possession, nor the Master Emerald that I've got hidden away somewhere... absorbed into my body thanks to Sonic logic, but whatever. I win. Again. I'm not kidding, either. Just check Last Post Wins, and if the last post isn't mine, it soon will be. Very, very soon. You can count on it. Seriously. By the way, if you're wondering, there's a really great Super Tails sprite sheet out there... somewhere... by some guy named shadow_91. These sprites are really great. Like, really good. Quality. Just like what I like to see in a sprite sheet. Also, credit to Joe T.E., his Sonic Battle style Super Sonic sprites have a great palette for a Super Sonic being beat up by Super Shadow, who's palette is from a Super Shadow sheet of unknown origin, but it turns out they were "borrowed" from a better sheet made by a certain Domenico. Oh, and the gif is actually a custom made super version of a similar gif, of which there are only 3 or 4 copies to be found by Google, and even then, evidently of an unknown source. Yep, it's one of those things. Stuff people have made, spread around, only for it to vanish and you to be the only person who still has a copy, not even knowing where it came from... like, literally at all. Oh, and anyone notice that Shadow's little chaos snap blast thingies are red and blue now? Yeah, I changed it. Problem, fans of purple? Yeah, I know you got a problem with that one, but you can just deal with it. After all, according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly... alright, alright, I'll spare you the entire Bee Movie script, just Google it if you want. By the way, ever wonder how your characters would've ended up if they evolved in another universe? Yeah, that. Think about it. Ok, so you probably didn't bother reading up to here, but whatever, here's a surprise for you guys over at ESD (RP) who were crazy enough to read this: Emperor Nat of the mcfreakin' Terran Empire is gonna be right all along! The universe is gonna go BOOM! *Thumbs up to the insanity*
            Oh, now don't tell me you want in on all this! Well, ok. Look this that Egg Pawn hanging outside your window, pointing his laser rifle at you, waiting for my next order. He's doing his part. He helps conquer the weak-minded. He roboticizes the weak-bodied. Heck, he even helps keep the useless people from causing any trouble, but you know what? Join.

You buy a whole lot of Phoenix packs on your main, and open them all. You get one epic token. Then, you decide, that since you have all the Breen ships and don't give a damn about the others, you exchange it for an ultra rare, and grab yourself a Jem'Hadar Attack Ship and for the hell of it, a Voth Bulwark. You open both, leaving the Bulwark in your vast masses of starships as you jump into the bugship and deck it out, deck by deck, into the most awesome Jem'Hadar ship you can. You fly it. You enjoy it. Eventually, you get bored and leave, leaving the old Bulwark never flown... until later. Your main is long complete. Your new alt main, based off some character you pulled out of nothing just to explain away some starship being in service without the command of your dear admiral, is also complete. Mostly. Their reps and doffs are hard at work, getting you stuff. You realize the potential, and head back for your dear admiral, pull the most Voth themed build you can out of thin air, and suit up in your giant ship in the shape of you know what. You head out... and cause all sorts of havoc. Enemies scream out your name as their very life is drained away by your swarms of Aceton Assimilators. They complain to the devs of your OPness when you revive yourself from death every time you die. Do you show any form of mercy? No. After all, this isn't the United Federation of Planets, this is mother frakkin' Starfleet, where you explore strange new worlds and kick butt never kicked before. Oh, and you realize that I just wrote another speech rivaling your own signature. Cool. Oh, wait, that's just the original draft, it is part of my signature now. Oh, and yes, I am aware that I have become a Canadian Regent; one day, sooner than you'd expect, we'll suddenly decide to take over the world and declare an "alliance", and I shall become it's Regent. You know, like the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance in the mirror universe of our beloved Star Trek. Oh, who'll we be taking over with? I dunno, maybe [REDACTED], or maybe aliens from outer space. Guess you'll have to wait and find out, won't we? Until then, don't ask too many questions, or else my Breen allies on Titania might pick up on your -- [REDACTED BY BREEN CONFEDERACY FOR REASONS] Also, psst... keep an eye out for flying Tribbles! Also walls. Big, great walls, separating entire continents apart. Walls patrolled by Tribbles. Flying Tribbles. Flying Nukara Tribbles. Don't worry, it's not like they were on Venus with a herd of Tholians or anything, they just like the extreme heat and brutal weather like acid rain and hurricane force winds as the norm. Oh, and definitely keep your eye out on any two-tailed foxes, because if they ain't glowing, they're definitely an imposter. Possibly an Undine, we caught one of those once in my place once. Oh, and if you find a two-tailed fox that doesn't like the cold... most certainly ask him to say sorry. If he refuses, DESTROY HIM WITH A DOOMSDAY MACHINE, BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH AGAINST SUCH AN OVERPOWERED IMPOSTER!

            My dream ship? That's easy.

            The starship Dora, modified with a Burroughs-Carter Continua Device, as seen in Robert Heinlein's novel "The Number of the Beast--". Replace Dora with an AI who owes allegiance to me rather than Lazarus Long, of course. I then have a craft that can go anywhere, in any universe, real or "fictional" (a concept that means little in Burroughs-Carter multiuniversal theory).

            that's a new one Jonsills. good book to read?
            Honestly, I'd have to say it depends on your tolerance for Heinlein in general - he had some, um, interesting ideas about ideal human sexuality, and if you're looking to figure out the author's political leanings from his stories you're always in for a frustrating time with him. On the other hand, the story hangs together pretty well I think, and he does get some nice deconstruction in on Lazarus Long (didn't hit him as hard as in the followup novel, The Cat Who Walks Through Walls, but none of the four main characters hero-worshiped the Old Man the way the Howard Families do, which made a pleasant change as Hilda called him out on his bull). He does follow up on most of the logical implications of his premise, although his own snobbery toward comic books meant that he overlooked some obvious ideas. (If the strength and prevalence of a fictal universe depends on the number of its readers who desperately wish it were real, the DC and Marvel universes should have been encountered long before ol' Kimball Kinnison.)

            This seems fun, so here goes my starship. Maybe not as OP as some of the other posters, but still decent enough :D

            Apperance: Elongated Prometheus-like primary hull with up to 2 km long saucer section and secondary deflector at its front end and a Nebula-like mission pod at the aft of the saucer's extension. Intrepid like secondary hull extending from the middle of the saucer section (with primary deflector at its front end) all the way to the end of saucer's aft extension which is containing large hangar bay/shuttlebay.
            8 warp nacelles (in pairs of 4 per each side) attached to the aft of the secondary hull. 4 impulse engines at the aft of the saucer section (2 on the each side) and 2 more at the connecting section of mission pod with primary hull.

            Propulsion: 2 temporal quantum-slipstream transwarp cores and a hyperdrive (like one of Atlantis city ship). 6 impulse engines.

            Weaponry: 40x universal energy arrays (one array can fire phaser, disruptor, plasma, antiproton, neutron, polaron, tetryon, proton or any other kind of known energy beam), 20x universal energy pulse cannons (same like with arrays, just in forms of cannons), 6x universal energy spinal lances, 20x fore and 10x aft rapid fire universal torpedo launchers (6000 various torpedoes) and Omega shockwave superweapon.

            Defensive systems: Multilayer ultra-high capacity regenerative shielding with energy absorbing capabilities, neutronium regenerative armor, ultra heavy SIF and corbomite reflector (as seen in ST Armada 2, but with longer working duration).

            Special devices: Self powered phasing cloaking device, energy signature dampeners and subspace rift generator (can be used both as a means of propulsion and as a weapon).

            Manufacturing: Advanced industrial replicators and workbees.

            Auxiliary craft: Carries up to 1000 shuttles/fighters and has also Defiant class escorts.
            FED ENG: FA Sirius Verax (USS Leviathan) , FED TAC (Delta): FA Adria Tyllex (USS Thunderblade) , ROM TAC: ADM Kill'ina (IRW Imperix Thrai) , KLING ENG (Delta): LT. GEN Ghol'Vaq Martok (IKS Qeh'Ral II) - 44th Fleet member
