[QUOTE]Originally posted by J: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Malnurtured Snay: [qb]J -- you mean all the anger about the "Enterprise" design is about a few insignificant details that very few people notice? So if they'd done a dual-hull design and copied those features, you'd be just as bad? C'mon, clearly the anger is at the catamaran style that Enterprise borrowed from the Akira-Class (even though, if you look at the two, you can see they're just "features" the two have in common -- much the way the Const/Amb/Exc/Gal all have similar features).[/qb][/QUOTE] I seriously doubt that "few people notice." This isn't something like being able to tell that the outside of a Borg cube has pieces from left over model kits [IE using the left over plastic], oh and not to mention the TMP Spacedock. You can see the exactness of the Turbocharges. Even if it's pointed out to you, the Borg hull isn't easy to see. Had they done the same yes, I would be miffed about a double-hull with exact details. It's the difference between reuse of structure and reuse of detail. And I disagree... I'm in love with the Loknar, and it is catamaran. --- http://frankg.dgne.com/~ragnarok/fss/frigates/frigate_loknar.jpg --- http://frankg.dgne.com/~ragnarok/fss/frigates/frigate_loknar_upgrade.jpg --- Infact I'd be more willing to accept a design EXACTLY like the TOS Loknar as the Pre-E, so take your assumption and shove it. Of course, there are two reasons why I'd accept the Loknar over the Akira--- 1) Loknar is more appropriate to time period 2) Loknar is fandom and wasn't on screen so there technically isn't any issues there for me within the ST Universe [I'd simply not accept references to it from the mid 23rd century]. I would be slightly upset that they copied the design without modifying it, but not so much as I am upset with the Pre-E/AKR connection. [/QB][/QUOTE]
