[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] I agree that NCC-1 is an unlikely registry number. NCC-01 is a possibility, and would jibe with the weird "NX-01-A USS Dauntless" thing that Janeway and pals seemed to swallow hook, line and sinker in "Hope and Fear". But the Daedali have regos in the 17X range (or 16X if a rather unconvincing Encyclopedia reference is counted). I doubt NCC-100 belonged to the Daedalus class at all, since it would seem unlikely for Starfleet to build more than seventy ships of that design in those early years. Also, it seems unlikely that the first couple of hundred NCCs were chronologically ordered according to the age of the ship design, or the year of service entry. In the early years, Starfleet must have gone from zero ships to a working fleet in a very short period of time, and hundreds of ships must have been (re-)registered in that time. It would stand to reason that the numbers would be given in some sort of "operational priority" manner - i.e. the biggest and baddest cruiser gets NCC-01, instead of the oldest and scrappiest old scout to be adopted from Earthfleet to Starfleet. I'd probably put USS Daedalus at NCC-170 or something, with NCC-01 being a big battleship or command ship of some sort. The Daedali could actually be rather small second-line vessels in that scenario... Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
