    Nebula. Yeah, it's just a kit-bashed Galaxy class but I still like it. Plus it's the setting for the best of the two Captain Data episodes.

    Nebula, cos Starfleet

    Bird of Prey, Nebula just looks like AN Other Starfleet vessel. Gotta go with the ship that shows persona or personality.

    Bird of prey for me.

    Nebula Class for me and I would compare it more to a Sumo wrestler.

    It's the setting for at least to of the the best episodes on TNG. One with Data and the other with O'brien former Captain taking on the Cardassians to prove they are smuggling weapons and not cargo or was it medicines on the ships as they say.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Tough one - but have to go for the Nebula, mainly for the episodes it appeared in - the Wounded being the standout.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,909 ✭✭✭Evade


    Most of the rest of the rounds are going to be very Sophie's Choice.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,274 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    The Nebula just Clinches victory!

    The Defiant in action is awesome...

    But for best looking ship - Galaxy class, star of so many eye catching scenes in TNG.

    This is tough one but it has to be Galaxy class. I fell asleep watching TNG for most of my childhood, I invested my Communion money in my own TV.

    An Easy one ye. Sure the Defiant is a great little war ship but she does not look anywhere near as nice as the Galaxy class or have any of its comforts so its the Galaxy class for me anytime.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Images you can hear, hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,724 ✭✭✭✭tom1ie


    Galaxy without a doubt.

    sexy fecker of a ship.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 24,688 ✭✭✭✭Cookie_Monster


    Defiant.

    Galaxy has always had wierd proportions for me and there are very few angles it actually looks properly good from


    Galaxy gets a special -1 as you used a gif from ST Fleet Command and that ship isn't in it yet despite the ridiculous amount of advertising on it.🤣



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


    How the hell was the Bird of Prey knocked out?? Madness.

    As to the vote, Defiant.

    Ms


    The same way the Oberth was knocked out for some dull runabout and the sexy Valdore for some rusty old Klingon rust bucket of a ship.

    So ye it was about time the other side felt some pain too.

    Galaxy.

    Defiant is nice but something a bit generic about it compared to more noticeably"Trek" ships with the saucer and nacelles

    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: 32,510 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    This is getting really tough now.

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



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,724 ✭✭✭✭tom1ie


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

    tough choice.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,513 ✭✭✭✭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.
