[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] And *I* like the Nebula class. Short, fat, ugly. That's the idea, and I like it for that. On the practical side, I'd surmised that the Nebula was the most adaptable of all the current-era designs. The module, if swappable, would be able to mount anything really necessary, and give the ship a per-mission flexibility beyond that of most ships. That is, load 'er up with a bunch of sensors, and a Nebbie could outdo the standard pallet of Galaxy-class equivalents. Weapons, ditto. Extra warp engines, why not? Plus, the lack of windows in the earlier-seen model of the Nebula only reinforced that - instead of standard rooms under there, you can have lots of mission cargo bays and transporter-swappable modules (as described in the TNG manual) capable of customizing to anything you really need. Overall, the Nebula may not match up to the GCS in every department - but give it a layover at a starbase, and it can kick a Galaxy's butt in one or more of the same. As for aesthetics, it's up to the individual. I think it's cool in its non-gracefulness, and even cooler in its practicality. S'me. Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
