I really liked this battle. I just got a new surround sound system and of course I poped this disc in to test it out -- and it made me think... why not make a post on flare about it! Yay... so here we are. First a few notes. Most of the names are conjecture (obvious). I watched the scene a few times and took note of most of the ship's flight path, and drew conclusions on where they could realisticly travel to between takes/scenes. And this is what I came up with. A list of the ships at 001. This is my first analysis, and I want all of your input so I can make revisions.
Enjoy!

Previous analysis concluded that this wreckage couldn't belong to any known class.
>D) Soyuz-Class USS Bozeman NCC-1941
This is just some standard Miranda. I don't beleive in the theory that the Bozeman was refitted to be a Miranda, BTW.
>E) Akira-Class USS Rabin NCC-63293
I beleive the original reference for the Rabin was in the Fact Files, no?
>G) Oberth-Class USS Valiant NCC-20000
Okay, but only if she was destroyed here - thus enabling a Defiant-class ship to be commissioned mere weeks later and lost behind enemy lines mere weeks after that. Personally, I'd blow her up much earlier than here.
>M) Klingon Bird of Prey (some random klingon ship name here)
I'd bet my grandpappy's best hooch that this isn't a BoP.
Most everything else has little to contest it. Good work!

Look at the other refrence to B.. i dunno... just mabye it fits...

Hmm.. i agree. Perhaps the more distant, blurrier Mirranda-looking ship was a Soyuz-Class...

Yes, said to be at this battle, IIRC

True, true... but its the only other 24th century Oberth-Class ship I could think of.

B can't be a Steamrunner (or any other known ship) because of the two huge lifeboat hatches in the upper left-hand corner. Steamrunner's should be much smaller. Oh, and the year is 2373.

is it just me or does the ship labeled K, in the final picture wit the borg cube explosion backdrop look like an AKira class vessel? Also the vessel labeled K in the top middle picture looks to me like an Akira.

I don't think that the Oberths survived the battle, so you should change H's name, because the Cochrane was still arround in 2374.

Wow, some crisp screen caps there, Proteus. I'm swayed by your well organized and high quality graphics...

Okay, people, if R is not an Intrepid, then what could it be?
I'm perfectly willing to believe in the Oberths now, after seeing these crisp caps and zooms. This R thing I'm still uncertain about. It does look tempting...
Except that there's also a Nebula-class USS Lexington out there... remember DS9's "Explorers"?

Changed "Klingon Bird of Prey" to unknown. Changed USS Cochrane NCC-59318 to USS Biko NCC-50331. Changed letters of two incorrectly labled Akira-Class ships. Changed W to Norway.

02/01/02 6:27AM The Nebula-Class was actually the USS Lexington NCC-61832. 92 dead, 22 wounded and still going strong... The other Akira must be the Spector.
Thanks for everyone for helping me revise this.
PS: as for the crisp pictures, I ran a few sharpness and curve filters over them.. and increased saturation a bit in Photoshop.

This is an excellent analysis, I don't have a much time to go over it in detail now but I will, I love analysing the Sector 001 battle. Wes does such good vidcaps, I always feel bad about being so nasty about him, until I remember what fun it is. 8)
