#TeamSigma
That Omega looks like a clunky garbage scow, all the most recent carriers look sleek or deadly. Sigma looks nice, streamlined and doesn't have those nacelles sticking out like four sore sticks. Now if the omega flew backwards then that would be a whole different story.
Next time, have Nog design a ship!
For my part, I find the Sigma hull to have better lines than the Omega, so that is where my vote is going. Also, the Omega's lack of a secondary hull that I can discern just doesn't jive with the way I feel Federation ships should look. But I can see from the way the votes are falling that my opinion is the minority.

Well, considering the white space in the middle of the profile view is supposed to be empty space, presumably a through-and-through hangar bay, you could consider the primary hull to be the upper half, the secondary hull to be the lower half, and the points that connect them at either end to essentially be two necks... let's say inherited from the odyssey.
The Nebula-configured Odyssey needs to be a thing.
why don't they just give us all the parts and we can mix up our own ship? and why aren't we getting this kind of contest for KDF or Romulans. AND why are the freaking FEDs getting a t6 carrier BEFORE the KDF who always had carriers ......

That is why I voted for Sigma. I would have went with Theta since it was the last dual nacelle ship but since it didn't make it, I went with Sigma because it has equally proportioned curves for a quad nacelle ship.
Finally the general population agrees with me. I lost the last three votes (I voted for the for Beta, Delta, and the Theta) but at least it looks like the majority of you agree that the Omega looks better than the Sigma. I just hope that you all agree that the Omega looks better than the Alpha when we get to the final round.
Omega, assuming that is a through and through hanger bay, would be my preferred choice. Still don't like the apparent lack of a secondary hull and also the differing sizes in warp nacelles but it looks less like a cruise liner than sigma.

I'm thinking that maybe the t6 voquv will be coming out at the same time as the new fed carrier so that the devs can give them both the same trait.
I know the devs were not wanting to give the romulans a carrier because they felt the whole "battle cloaking carrier" would be OP or something otherwise they'd have to take the battle cloak that is the romulans shtick away. So will they get one that has normal cloak but not battle cloak? Or will they get one that has no cloak at all? Ionno. I suppose we'll see though.

Again all very boring, but this will just be the anniversary free ship it seems.
What on earth makes you think this is gonna end up a free anniversary ship? They say this contest will take place over the next two months and the anniversary isn't till February.

Well Last time I voted Epsilon, but with Sigma being a different saucer on the same ship issue I totally voted for what I assumed was one of the more carrier looking out of the 8 we were given to choose between. Omega looks like a carrier. And honestly I had to go and figure out just WHAT a Jupiter class was that everyone has a hair up their bum about. I haven't seen one in years in game and yeah now that I brushed back up on it, I can sorta see the similarities. Meh. I hope this gets to either the Alpha and Omega, not only because I feel it would be apt as they are the beginning and the end. Not only that but maybe the other gets turned into a alternate ship costume for the other. They are similar enough so it's possible. The two styles are nice enough that it would take me forever to vote for either one should it come down to it. I will say this if the ship is the size of this Jupiter Class is seems to be related to, it darn well better have more than two hanger bays.
Carriers are not nimble, agile or any other adjective for maneuverable you can think of. One navel captain once said "carriers don't turn on a dime, they turn on Rhode Island". It should a great lumbering beast that sits back at 9.5 km and lets its fighters do the killing for it while firing broadside support.
I would seriously consider buying a true fed carrier, but IF Omega Wins over all, I wont be. its a Fugly Ship!
Looks Nothing like the Jupiter (don't know how anyone can say it does).
and Although I know its gonna win.
just wanna point out to those who are going on about nacelles, the Latest Designs seen in Series (Voyager, Ds9 and TNG) have smaller ones, and in the case of defiant and steam-runner, they are incorporated into the hull.
plus the Prometheus had 4 Small ones (and 2 really small ones, so 6 in total) and that was "State of the Art" in 2370s.
it was the Films and the Sovereign that went back to the Big stuck out nacelles (which is tactically unsound, as they make easy targets).
As for those who will argue that the Sovereign sets a trend, the Wells Class from the 29th century has Incorporated Nacelles.
So For the Love Of Trek Cannon, Vote For Smaller/incorporated Nacelles.
The difference between a wet-navy carrier and a space-bourne carrier is that in space, there's no friction or drag from the water, the manuverability of a carrier should only be limited by its engines and inertial dampeners.

he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.

He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."
This is a complete farce, we all knew the Omega was going to win the second this whole thing started. I'm getting so tired of these arrow point quad nacelle designs...

True. And it looks like a really tough ship.

I think it's pretty cool looking.
So it will obviously lose...
Omega is that beast
