    Miranda baby. All day long. I suspect this might be where my favourite bows out cos the Sovereign is a swanky ship - but damnit if I could have one ship to fly, it'd be a Miranda.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,097 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    This is getting really tough now.

    Miranda just about but honestly I don't mind who wins



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,764 ✭✭✭✭tom1ie


    Sovereign just about as it looks gorgeous, but I do love the Miranda!!

    tough choice.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,257 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    Sovereign is impressive

    But Miranda just about gets my vote.

    Sovereign for me. The Miranda is a good workhorse ship and tough but the Sovereign is just so much sleeker and more advanced.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Sovereign. Mirandas are very plain in comparison.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,738 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    One hour to go until until vote over and next ship-off!

    Nice shots of the runabout....

    But voting for Constitution Refit... classy and elegant.

    This isn't even a contest especially compared to the last few choices.

    Refit all the way



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,474 ✭✭✭Niska


    Constitution refit and it's not even close.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,805 ✭✭✭Evade


    It's a Honda City vs a Mercedes-Benz 300 SL. It's not even a contest the Constitution refit.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,522 ✭✭✭✭Cookie_Monster


    Constitution



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 36,711 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    Miranda wins! Holy shít, I honestly thought that was it for "my" ship lol 😀

    Constitution Refit for the latest vote; already gave thoughts on the Danube, and am frankly amazed it has made it this far, being as it is a doorstop.

    Constitution Refit for me. This one should be a walkover.

    Who would vote for a Runabout over a real ship honestly.

    I am still in shock at the Miranda beating the Sovereign class.

    My god people.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I apologise for nothing. Starfleet 2CVs forever 😁

    Very one sided round!


    The Constitution Refit warps on forward!!

    This should be an interesting one!!


    Klingon D7


    VS


    Nebula Class

  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 36,711 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    D7: the Nebula just looks like a kitbash, as Evade previously called it. A mishmash with that top part looking so extraneous. The D7 looks like a threat, a classic appearance of a battleship in space.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,257 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    I like the Nebula, compact, robust... and it starred in some great episodes such as The Wounded with Captain Maxwell going rogue v the Cardassians.

    But will vote for the D7... you really don't want something menacing like that decloaking in orbit.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,805 ✭✭✭Evade


    A kit bash isn't a derogatory term, it just means assembling a model from a kit(s) in a way that doesn't follow the instructions.

    With that said Nebula. I always thought the D7's hat looked a bit silly.



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 36,711 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    I know it isn't, or that you meant it thus, but a bad kitbash looks a jumble and without thought. Which I think is how the Nebula appears. I'm having terrible luck replying to your posts lately lol 😜



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,097 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Nebula



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,764 ✭✭✭✭tom1ie


    Choice I made was sovereign!

    Sorry i could have been clearer and I’m having connectivity issues getting online at the minute.

    I’ll vote d7 for this round.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,562 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    D7 as I always felt the Nebula was the last minute homework a kid throws together before class starts in design



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,522 ✭✭✭✭Cookie_Monster


    Nebula



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,092 ✭✭✭Rawr


    D7. Much better in the Original Klingon.

    Look at that skinny neck on the D7 do. It looks like its about to break.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,805 ✭✭✭Evade




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,474 ✭✭✭Niska


    D7 - may look too skinny in places but still a menacing silhouette



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 36,711 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    What this thread has revealed thus far, is being part of the stable of classic designs has not been a guarantee of a walkover. 🙂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,738 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    The D7 wins the day!

    (although I think that's the Romulan version)



    A good show from the Nebula, but its gone.

    A good list... Surprised D7 is the Klingon entry ahead of the Bird of Prey... would not have predicted that.

    Galaxy class for me. In fact why not just skip to the final already and give it the trophy lol.

    Miranda.

    TOS movie ships were the best mix of futuristic looking and functional. No silly aerodynamics



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,805 ✭✭✭Evade


    Galaxy class. I love how menacing they look in some of the Dominion War scenes, they just loom onto the screen and fire enough phasers to melt a city.

    Miranda/Soyuz isn't bad but it just doesn't cut it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,092 ✭✭✭Rawr


    Oh, Miranda. I love you D, but Reliant is when I started to love Star Trek.

    Ha...why do I get the feeling that this Game is about to look like the Mutara Nebula? :P
