Chancellor class

Hello,
with adjustments to KDF play and the recent "Ask Cryptic" that clearly states Cryptic can use materials from novels but not video games it may be time to look at one of the most prominent Klingon novel ship: the IKS Gorkon.
She has been mentioned in "The Path to 2409" so she does not seem to be beyond reach oc Cryptic.
The Chancellor (or Qang in Klingon) class was a new design that appeared a bit too late to participate in the Dominion War.
She's basically a somewhat enlarged Vor'cha with the same tacitcal and additional scientific abilities.
After the war when the first 12 of these ships were operational, they were snet into an unexplored sector of space to do all the familiar things.
"To explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations...and conquer them for the glory of the Empire"
One of the first novels the Gorkon appared in ("The Brave and the Bold" Book 2), had schematics that give us a clear picture how much it is based on the Vor'cha and also that it is not just a slight variation.

strangely engough the cover of the first novel in the Gorkon series shows us a ship that looks more like a streamlined Vor'cha even though in the book itself the author states it's based on above schematics.
Anyway since the chematics are the basis anyway I'd use them as a baseline for the ship.
Here's the Mem Beta article with the picture I mentioned.
http://memory-beta.wikia.com/wiki/Qang_class
Since it's an enlarged Vor'cha I'd propose a ship with a turnrate of 9.5.
The base version could be a Tier 4 "+1" counterpart to the Vor'kang with a more science-oriented layout.
The Fleet version is a bir tricky since it should not collide with the setup of the Flight Deck Cruisers.
I think it should still feature the Tor'kaht's LtC. Tac but should have a more sciency focus in other areas.
What do you folks think?

As for a more a more science Vor'cha, use the mirror version with the normal skin.
I could adding this skin, but unless this turns into a real KDF a science ship, KDF Vesta equivalent, trading hanger bay for cloak, and being a battle cruiser sci hybrid.
3 front, rear, cloak, subsystem targeting, and sensor analysis, dual cannons, and a turn of 12, and decent hull. That I would buy. Oh and a good shield modifier.

I am but one of a Legion of fans that want this ship.

PS - I fully support a T6 Nova, fixing the Nova skins. I am also rooting for a T6 Science Cruiser, that can use Nova/Rhode Island skins.
T6 Nova/Rhode Island, T6 Oberth & T6 Constellation are needed. Also needed a T6 Science Cruiser, that can wear any Science or Cruiser skin.
But, dead thread. You might want to try posting a new thread and see if you can drum up interest in further conversation. As this thread was inactive for over 30 days, it has to be closed.
