New Shuttles.

I was thinking about how I really wanted an Orion Slaver small craft to Fly in and started wondering what other small crafts I'd like to see in the game.
So here is my list.
Orion Slavers
Orion Interceptors
That weird ship Tom Paris Flew that made him hallucinate
The Bajoran shuttle that Kira and Dax flew in.
The Maquis ship from Voyager.
The Raven, the Science shuttle that 7 of Nines Parents flew.
That's even in the order I wish them in.
What about you guys any new shuttles you'd like.

I like that list, although it's exactly backward compared to my preference. I'd put it in reverse order, I might not put the creepy ship in there though, what was it? Sally or something? Idk if the Maquis ship would count as a shuttle though, it was considerable bigger than a runabout at least, but it would be cool to have that ship, it could be more like the Freighter maybe.
9 Episodes = 30+ episodes...?

It's pronounced "S.T.O." "Stow" sounds idiotic! lol
The raider from VOY is the Condor-class. It's more akin to a frigate then a runabout. It's also what I repeatedly put forward instead of Mirandas or Defiants for the inevitable Federation carrier to carry.
Then again, I also wish that any ship that also has a carrier or console pet version, like the KDF Bird of Prey or the Aquarius Destroyer would have a depowered shuttle version that you could use on shuttle missions. They already did this with the Vulcan ship/shuttle combo, why not the others?

The Type 11 from Insurrection just looks awesome.
If they ever come out with a bundle for Star Trek: Voyager, a Type 2 or Aeroshuttle should be part of the package.
it was a shuttle ?
DELTA PRICE RISING
You get the sense in the Star Trek universe that the majority of people flyin' around out there are really in small crafts, they just aren't part of the main adventures. But there's a lot of room for development. All those non-starfleet people, small time traders, personal transports. Orion scouts, Federation solar system defenses. Lots of stuff.
The dev team seems to agree, have added a couple new shuttle missions, and hopefully that's a trend with future "seasons".

Also I was comparing some of these ships to the Vulcan Small Craft with its crew of 50, which the Candor and the Raven would fall in the same range I believe.
The Jelly Fish would also make a cool small craft, the bigger end of small craft.
And Yes I know alot of people hate JJ Abrams here, and while I enjoyed the movie, I understand why. But lets not punish the SFX guys who create these ships which are excellent.
Some sort of super-doomsday machine supersized Borg Cube. You go through pounding the hell out of it with your big ships, then when it's weakened, you go all Death Star Assault on it, and have to fly inside the ship with your shuttle to some kind of central target.
Hardly original, but it would rule.

Bigger than a shuttle, still pretty small.
Yeah, right.
It had "only" 4 decks and a shuttlehangar.

It's actualy close to the Aquarius in size.

Excellent idea.
I was thinking it should have the hyper impulse drive and weapon/engine power drain ability as innate ability and one universal ensign station. That way you could slot in say tractor beam to make more like the Elite Interceptors or tac for more offense, or whatever.

It does. I'm actually baffled that it isn't the "main" Federation shuttle in 2409, rather than the Type 8. >_>;
You could throw the Argo in that too, though I'd bet people would start clamoring for the jeep too. While possibly cool, it's not something I feel is all that needed considering other priorities and the impact it'd make.
As for me... what I want right now is my Romulan Commander's Gig... with the hope that it'll actually look really cool. Or a D'ritheau-inspired refit of the Kestrel Runabout (Romulan equivalent of the Yellowstone).
In theory, it should be an exclusive to the Intrepid variants, but...heck, why not?
We veterans can all get access to the Sovereign-style Captain's Yacht, so the precedent is there.
Agreed that the Argo shuttle and dune buggy would almost certainly have to go together...I could see it happening for specific, queuable missions a la The Vault Shuttle Mission or the new atmospheric one, but having the buggy available at other times would likely be pretty gamebreaking.
