[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] (Potential spoilers ahead) $ $ $ $ $ $ $ I'm coming into this argument kind of late, so bear with me. I've read everyone's posts both at this forum and the Starships forum concerning the Akiraprise. Without mentioning the "Enterprise" show itself, I'm just going to give my $.02 about the ship design. I, like many people on this board, am a starship freak. One of the most interesting aspects of Star Trek are the many ship designs we get to see. I think that's why I, Bernd, Timo, et. al were so tenacious in trying to find the information about the Wolf 359 models. Anyway, let's think about this. When was the last time we saw a truly new starship design? IIRC, it was about three years ago, during "Equinox" where we saw the Nova class ship. If you're a ship freak like me, three years is a hell of along time to go without seeing a new ship design. Then came the Voyager finale, which promised us a slew of new ship designs per interviews with people like Sternbach et. al. What did we end up getting? Just a minor modification of the same Nova we saw three years ago, plus a fleet of the same old ships we've seen before. So naturally, barring the show itself, I was excited just to know there would be a new ship design, albeit from the 22nd century. And again, absolutely no thought was put into the Enterprise's design at all. It's not a new ship. It's an old ship that was modified very minimally. And it doesn't even work for the time period. Maybe "Enterprise" will turn out to be the best Star Trek show ever. Maybe it will be crap. Maybe the ship's interiors will be very well put together. But maybe they'll be as anachronistic as the exterior. I like to reserve my judgement until I've actually seen the show. But I do have to say that I'm very disappointed right now. [/QB][/QUOTE]
