[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Mabye the third nacelle alters warp geometry for other reasons- it could be just the thing for fighting in Fluidic Space or even useing the warp field to enhance the shields in some manner (re-directing incoming phaser fire via warp geometry?). It could have a LOT of diffrent uses, but I think it would allow the old girl to sustain a high warp velocity for longer periods and thus "keep up" with the rest of the fleet. As to the model itself, it's pretty dumb: the BFG Phaser overlapps the captain's yacht and the very front of the saucer's phaser ring- making it look very much tacked-on. I've heard much fanboy speculation that those idiotic things near the bridge are phaser cannons and a super-sized torpedo launcher....(shudder) The only really great mod done to the ship is the cool new impulse engine she has- I always thought the Galaxy's impulse engine looked a bit tiny for such huge ship. In my own (Dominion War era) fleet of models, I have a dreadnaught Galaxy, but it does not have any of the dumb features- nothing added near the bridge, no extra "fins" on the nacelle pylons and it has no Galaxy "neck"- altering the ship's profile greatly and making the third nacelle unobstructed from the front. ...and an "NX" registry, of course. ;) [IMG]http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/1468230/21980732.jpg[/IMG] [/QB][/QUOTE]
