    You anti-LENS FLARE people really need to move forward. I've been using lens flares like that since Photoshop 2.0! Lens Flares aren't going anywhere!

    quit being such a hater, the Kelvin was from the prime timeline...everything in that movie that existed before Nero showed up was 100% canon in the prime universe...which includes Kelvin uniforms, phaser turrets and sound effects...all of it. But everything that happens after Nero warps in front of the Kelvin is alternate timeline stuff.

    Before Nemo.. err I mean Nero messed it up

    James Tiberius ("Jim") Kirk was a Human born on March 22nd, 2233 (Stardate 1277.1), in Iowa on the planet Earth, the son of George and Winona Kirk. His mother and father were serving on board the USS Kelvin under the command of Captain Richard Robau while Winona was pregnant with him. His parents named him after his maternal grandfather James and his paternal grandfather Tiberius

    Yes, because mere scans of the Narada magically allowed Starfleet to build a Constitution class Enterprise about the size of a Galaxy.
    On the ground.

    Not buying it.

    You didn't watch Danny Boyle's sci-fi thriller "Sunshine" did you?

    j/k

    As for new starships, sure. The more the merrier.

    It's a shame everyone wants everything - for free - and right now. (myself included).

    However, if I were to shake a Magic 8 Ball - it'd say:
    "Signs point to yes" for new ship variants/types/tiers

    I was very happy with the new movie thank you. It was MUCH better than all of the TNG trek movies by a long shot..

    Although I will admit that Chris Pine spent a LOT of time picking himself up off the ground lol

    To be fair he's playing Kirk before he levelled up his martial arts skills and discovered that ripped shirts give +50 to Kirk Fu.

    I am sure they will and will be available to you for the low low price of 240 cryptic points. Or if you can get 20 people to pay for this game.

    I wasn't suggesting that the player would choose just illustrating the different means they could introduce it. :D

    Well, the canon reason (as I understand it) is that after the Kelvin got wiped so handily, Starfleet exclaimed "PROFANE BLEEPING CRUD!" and started to make nice with all their neighbors, including the Romulans (which is how they recognized Nero as a Rommie and how Spock could say he could partly pass for one.) At the same time they realized that they needed more dakka on their ships, which is why Enterprise has pulse turrets and beam banks. (There are inconsistencies there, though. Like, if you were looking at upgunning your ships, why do you STILL have your bridge on the TOP of your saucer section? Worse, why have you given it a BIG TRANSPARENT ALUMINUM WINDOW?!) Presumably that affected the design decisions for Enterprise (needed more power, etc. etc.) So Kelvin getting shellacked could have a profound impact on, well, everything, if you just stretch a little bit. Because, frankly, ANY change to history can have serious ripple effects later on.

    The FX guys have backtracked on the size of the Abramsverse Enterprise, saying that it should be the approximate size of the original Connie. On-screen evidence is, of course, contradictory, with estimated sizes ranging from 300m to 700m. Go fig.

    We need more ships, definitely, but they need to be timeline- and universe-appropriate.
