Where else has the Centaur appeared besides in ATTS? Can we get a list of eps? I know one was "Behind the Lines", in the background of the Starbase 375 shots. Wasn't there at least one other?

The Centaur? I though it appeared only once. OK, there was one ship that looked somehow like a Centaur, but it could also have been a Miranda.

Weren't there some Centaur class ships in the various "massive fleet" scenes (SOA, Chintoka eps, ...)?

^^^^

Don' think so. I happened from time to time that I thought I see a Centaur, but it was just an Akira-class. They look very similar from several angles.

You might be right. I will check though, just to make sure we didn't overlook something.

IIRC, Sisko referred to Captain Reynolds again in either "Favor the Bold" or "Sacrifice of Angels." But the ship wasn't actually seen to my knowledge.

I know what I will be watching for the next one and a half hours... [Wink]

He said something about Captain Reynolds and Captain Diego. Wonder who's that.

Either way, they also mentioned the Magellan and we didn't see the ship. So OK, the Centaur might have been there, but I doubt they pulled out the old model to bring it back on screen just because it was in dialogue. Allthough never mentioned (only the novelization did), do you think he and his ship survived the battle? I really hope so. [Frown]

I don't recall them ever being mentioned again. Although that doesn't mean anything.
They might have survived - then again, they might not. Who knows?

The Centaur is seen again in at least one of the episodes between the premiere and "Sacrifice". We see it arrive behind SB375 and stop. However, it's not likely that the Centaur was seen in the big fleet shots as they were all CG.

That's the shot I was talking about from "Behind the Lines". I just watched it yesterday and noticed the Centaur there. The footage may have been reused in subsequent episodes featuring SB 375, too.

And incidentally, there's no confusing it for anything but the Centaur. It's a clean side view as it comes across the screen from the left, and a clear 3/4 as it comes to a stop and rests at the bottom-right corner of the shot.

No, I can't make 'em, and I haven't seen any of this particular shot. But to anyone who can, it's the opening sequence, during the Captain's log voiceover. (In "Behind the Lines")

There isn't anything special about the shot that would make a screenshot too worthwhile. You get a simple side view of the ship as she slows to a halt, that shows little of the true detail of the actual ship. A pity really, as there's barely anything seen of the top of the saucer, and whatever odd greeblies/changes that would be on it.
