[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] A missing deflector is very convenient - now we can't tell if it was of the elderly Ambassador style or a more modern Galaxy/Nebula/New Orleans variety... Any info on the saucer bottom? Where did I hear the line "Among the things used were [...] Enterprise components that didn't come out of the mold quite right"? Was it in Nemecek's TNG Companion? I thought these referred to components of the E-nil or E-A, but apparently the parts that belonged to those ships were "quite right" and specifically designed as "damaged" for an earlier movie appearance. Perhaps Nemecek (?) referred to E-C and E-D components instead, and Greg Jein actually had a sub-par E-C hull component in his possession, with misshaped front and aft ends? A 500m ship with three Galaxy nacelles is a dangerous challenger to the E-D for the title of the biggest and baddest. I have difficulty inventing a backstory for the ship that would prevent it from out-shining the Galaxy class and would explain its later absence. Perhaps these would be extreme-deep-space explorers, built in small numbers - but why would one be near Earth? Perhaps three nacelles were an experiment that failed - but why would a failure remain in service with all that armament and stuff? The ship doesn't look like an overarmed "dreadnought" or anything, either - not when compared to the Miarecki ships with lower NCCs and longer (if segmented) phaser strips.
