Perhaps. I did mention in my more recent addition to the post that an alternative ship design would be an old ship design like the Typhoon. Also, surely STO is now in 2411? The player starts off graduating in 2409, and 18 months later is the last Breen mission (source: Delta recruit). Even if the beginning was January 1st,…
Yep, that's what I mentioned before with the whole Archer-design-note stuff. So, yeah, if they decided to implement it, they could just make it whatever length they desire.
I suspect that this would be able to load both singularity and warp cores. Ah, good. Since most of the mass is in the saucer, which is probably about the mass of a scimitar overall... I guess that a 20 inertia rating would work.
Actually, before I do anything more with the inertia, could you offer a source that explains what inertia does? I have not been able to find one. I'll muddle around a little bit with the other stuff, though. Edit: Also, in a general address to people who read this, I'll try my hand at making a rough model of what this…
The Jupiter-class carrier actually works quite well in its role as a science carrier. All carriers can, of course, perform fleet support with defensive fighter launches, and the shield modifier and science console slots make it work quite well as a tank or whatever it is people like science vessels for (probably just the…
I suspect that the Enterprise-J, which was a Universe-class? would be descended from this, not the exact same class. Also, I will point out that some ship designs (like the Excelsior) were, in the Star Trek canon, being extensively upgraded (like the Lexington in Paradise Lost), when they were around a hundred years old.…
"You lost me at 'Enterprise J.'" "way too massive to ever be considered for STO. It's just way too big." Semantic quibbles about the meaning of 'massive' aside, the Enterprise-J was about 3 kilometers in length. The Odyssey is around 1 kilometer long, and ships like the Scimitar are much longer than even Odyssies. So, with…
How is this OP? The shield bonuses from the console are not exceedingly great, and being as it is a cruiser, its (relatively) extremely low hull is balanced out by its high shield modifier. The rest of its stats are around those of other ships, like the Guardian cruiser and Odyssey Class. The satellite ability isn't,…
I, personally, rather like this creation of mine. I think I shall call it... "Hyperion at Counterpoint". -Used Paint .NET* (it's like MS Paint, but cooler, and sort of like photoshop but different. Anyways...) to combine two images, both entirely from Star Trek Online. -Used the same program to add the window tint to look…
