Ok. Here's a ship from the new Starfleet Command game:
What ship is this? I can tell it's the U.S.S. Ulysses NCC-7850, but what class is it? I personally think it's the Belknap-class strike cruiser, but I'm not sure.
Input?

Not sure about the class, but they list it as a dreadnought.
I haven't heard much about this game, but I believe they just made up the extra ships. I could be wrong, though.

If it is a Belknap, it's been updated. What other ships are in the game?

Saucer: unknown type, probably a completely new design. Weapon pod: Miranda-like. Nacelles: Constitution-like, but not quite the same. Pylons: unknown type. Engineering: Constitution-like, but slight differences. I haven't seen any ship like this before, and it's not the Belknap which has pylons attached to the engineering hull bottom, let alone a canon ship.
There is a ship called the USS Ulysses. It was refered to in the DS9 season 3 finale. The Adversary. It supposedly patrols the Tzenkethi border.

A ship called USS Ulysses was mentioned in DS9's 4th (not 3rd) season finale. But the Encyclopedia gives the class as Nebula and the registry as NCC-66808. So this isn't the same ship.

All of the new Ships from "Starfleet Command" are those from "Star Fleet Battles," a very non-canon cmbat simulator. In other words, trying to associate most of them with a canon or fandom class is very unlikely, unless you're a fan of "Star Fleet Battles" to begin with. All I can say is that canon, noncanon, or whatever, the majority of the new ships in that game look DAMN good for fleshing out the movie era...

First, whoops, my mistake, it was the 3rd season as Daryus said and not the 4th as I 'corrected' it to.
Secondly, Ryan what are you on? You should know that all SFB ships are TOS/TAS technology. They're not allowed to use anything else. So what is this new ship? Clearly using movie era technology.
