    Alpha of course

    but um so we waited a few extra days to start this but no new versions of the ship profiles or anything??

    of course my real vote was on that alpha/epsilon/omega version...

    Your pain runs deep.
    Let us explore it... together. Each man hides a secret pain. It must be exposed and reckoned with. It must be dragged from the darkness and forced into the light. Share your pain. Share your pain with me... and gain strength from the sharing.

    It's gotta be Alpha. There's not much to separate them, but Alpha edges it.

    The final design will be getting a full paint over. Similar to something like this.
    EDIT: Except not Romulan
    DOUBLE EDIT: Probably not green either.

    I think what separates them for me is the way the hangars are arranged. The huge hangar bay doors on Omega just scream "SHOOT ME HERE" and would be a major tactical vulnerability, to me.

    ah, I just figured since we were in wait mode for Monday to start this back up that we were getting some cool new imagery... oh well

    is there a good chance we have some customizing options like with other ships, to switch nacelles around, mission pods, that sort of thing?

    The smooth edges on Alpha seal the deal for me. But they're so similar it doesn't really matter.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    Since the tumor appears more subdued in the HiRes image, I voted Alpha over the duckbilled Omega. I don't like the spoiler or the atrophied lower nacelles, but it was less ugly than the Omega. I'd prefer a more classic Star Trek ship with two nacelles, a neck, a fuselage and a round saucer.

    Lol, probably the only reason the poll's so close right now is because the Jupiter fans haven't remembered the poll yet.

    Love every thing about the Alpha, EXCEPT I wish it had those gorgeous monster bays that omega has.

    I went Alpha because Omega looks like someone took a saw and cut the edges on each side and the front.

    I've voted on the ship that has lost, each and every time so far. Why stop now? #TeamAlpha all the way. Naturally the Jupiter-fanboys vote Omega. I've known Omega would win this competition from the start.​​

    Meh, they both look like flying squids. I prefer the Alpha-Epsilon-Omega kitbash.

    Alpha edges it between these two because the nacelles look slightly better.

    Wow...so far it's a tie! It's the first time one of these polls is so close.

    Omega for me, but like someone else said, these two almost look the same.

    Whoops! Just refreshed the page! The Jupiter fans must've woken up!

    No need to debate. It is the exact same ship (and yes, I am inclined to join the tinfoil heads about that), Alpha just got the Nebula pod which looks better and Omega's nacelles are wonky. But I support the Jupiter fans because I know it's hard to want a ship in game and never get it pig-1.gif​​

    I wouldn't know why it would be true, its not a very stable looking ship, its the Jupiter 2 with nacelles tossed on it and Doctor Smith screaming look out Will! while the robot just drones on about there being danger near by..

    its not the Jupiter class ship from the game, maybe if you sliced that ship down by 3/4 and gave it really flimsy nacelles

    so really none of us win.

    Voting Omega. Looks big and long enough to be a carrier.
    Still, I rather have the mashup version where its Omega body, epsilon naselles, and alpha mission pod(as optional).

    Only problem I got with Omega is the engine trail is coming from the center of the body.

    Actually for me, the launch/landing on the sides is what made #TeamOmega my choice.
    Now if we can get something like Alpha's nacelle design for the Omega...

    I just saw the Jupiter ingame today during a klingon fleet alert. It was glorious. Go Omega.
