[QUOTE]Originally posted by Aban Rune: [QB] Well, They could use the existing spaceframes from say the Excelsior Class saucer for example to make a Centaur type saucer. The outer structure could be almost identical while the interior would obviously be quite a bit different especially toward the back of the saucer. But the forward compartment could be almost exactly the same. And keep in mind, the real reason we have ships like the Centaur type and the Shelley Class (both good designs in my opinion) is because the FX guys went out and bought a few AMT models and rearranged parts. If you'll notice: Take a Reliant model's "rollbar thingy" and place it on the underside of an Excelsior model's saucer. Add a couple modified nacelles from the Excelsior model and some extra greebles for phasers and sensors, and you've got the U.S.S. Centaur. While these ships are not in scale in the Trek universe, they work perfectly for the model makers. Same holds true for the Yeager class. If you take the Voyager model's saucer and put the Maquis Raider model under it, there you go. It doesn't work if you try and use the models that are scaled to each other, but it does if you use the ones that were sold separately. [/QB][/QUOTE]
