Surprised, really, that there's no one commenting negatively towards the fact that with a 'Starfleet' full-carrier for T6, the Caitian Atrox is now no-longer special...
Well, seeing that they will release a T6 variant of the Garumba I would think that a T6 version of the Atrox is not necessarily off the table.
Seems the people who predicted that Cryptic would re-release all of the T5 ships as T6 variants were right on the $$$.

Epsilon already won its' round, and Omega is basically Epsilon with raked-back nacelles. Lets vote in at least one decently compact vessel design... vote Sigma and save the environment!
Going with #TeamOmega on this, it seems more believable as a carrier. It would be cool to see Sigma make it in-game as a different type of ship though .
Can we skip to the end? First, Omega wins. Next, we give it TWO hangar bays, thank you very much! Then we offer two different hangar pets...one is fighter size (launches 3 at a time), and one is frigate size (launches one at a time). Can I get an AMEN???

...oops...I left out that our Omega should have at LEAST 3 weapons stations each fore and aft! and by the way, I keep seeing Omega being compared to the Jupiter class. Surely you all don't mean by looks, do you? Because the Omega is pretty hot and the Jupiter is hideous!!
"As with all living things, each according to his gifts."
The Omega Design looks like the awesomest out of all round choices in my opinion. It looks extremely awesome, and it looks large enough to be a great Federation Bulwark Dreadnought Carrier. I think its the best ship design on the entire game because of its awesome appearance. It was very designful, and we need a Federation Ship that looks large enough to pop out Frigates or Escorts. Maybe even Science Vessels. Design Omega would also be great for tanking and I think they should create a Built-In Heavy Phaser Lance of some sort. One even more Massive than the one on the Galaxy-X Dreadnought Cruiser. One that causes devestating damage, even more damage than the Krenim Annorax Dreadnought's Chroniton Lance. Design Omega would make an awesomely powerful Dreadnought Carrier in my opinion. GO TEAM OMEGA! GO TEAM OMEGA! GO TEAM OMEGA! YEAH! I'll be very excited if they choose Design Omega.
Not liking the nacelles, but the saucer is more familiar...
Yeah, I'm not a fan of quad nacelles except for the Prometheus only because it has MVAM, which makes it a practical design. The shorter nacelle on the Omega sticks out like a sore thumb to me.
I like Sigma because the overall shape of the design seems equally proportioned.
Omega with the dis-proportioned nacelles looks like a giant space whale. I have to admit though, the hangar bay on the side does look practical.
I'm going with Team Omega. Design Omega looks incredibly awesome in my opinion. It has a great Saucer and an awesome Nacelle Configuration. I think they should create the Omega Design. I think it looks better than every single Design that they've ever come up with. Design Omega is so large that it would make an awesome Federation Bulwark Dreadnought Carrier that could easily slaughter anything in its path if you equip it correctly. I think that they should also put some sort of Heavy Lance Weapon on it. Hopefully Antiproton, but most likely Phaser. Also one that does very devestating damage to the Target and a few enemies within 10 km of the Target. Even more damage than the Krenim Annorax Science Dreadnought's Chroniton Lance and even more powerful than both that and the Galaxy-X Dreadnought Cruiser's Phaser Lance. Also, we need a Federation Dreadnought Carrier that is large enough to carry Frigates or Escorts. Maybe even Science Vessels or Cruisers. Some sort of ship, though. And Design Omega looks like its large enough to carry Ship/Non-Small Craft Hangar Pets. Design Omega also looks like the best ship on the entire game in my opinion. I'll be very excited if it wins the entire competition. GO TEAM OMEGA! GO TEAM OMEGA! YEAH! I don't think the other ships can compete against Design Omega. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
of the 2 omega is superior but imo we really should stick with more traditional saucer/neck/hull/pylon/nacelle model of the best federation ships... also warp nacelle/pylon belong ATTACHED TO THE FRIKKIN HULL NOT SAUCER
Why are people assuming that Omega must be proportionally much larger than any of the other designs? We haven't seen any strong indication of size, like showing an existing ship for comparison. Nor have I seen any official word that all of these designs are on the same scale.
What I don't understand is why we're moving so slow. Why one vote against type instead of each level at a time. Could have been done in 9 days instead of the 21 is going to take.
Seems the people who predicted that Cryptic would re-release all of the T5 ships as T6 variants were right on the $$$.
That would be ME. Yep. I called it. JUST LIKE I did for saying Romulus would be assimilated by the Borg during those Time Incursion attempts at ridding us of the Iconians.
Chalk one more up for the guy no one likes to listen to because I'm always right. Or wrong. I have at least a fifty percent chance to be correct half the time! So go stew on that ya leeches!
Omega looks larger and way better than Sigma so my vote goes to her. Sigma has a good side-view though, but those nacelles are way to close to the saucer and their pylons are way to short too.

I went with the Omega design because it is BY FAR the most superior. Its size and four thrust-nacelles, along with the sleek almost pointed forward section of the ship gives enemies the message "This is a ship of both power and speed, so WATCH OUT!!" This design also demonstrates that size DOES matter!

Ok, ok. We get it. But seriously:
Because Sigma is basically Epsilon only rounder. And Epsilon winning was a disgrace.

I'm sorry to people who I, in the past, insulted, annoyed, etc.
I went with Sigma because it, in my opinion, looked a little better
