[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Dunno... That does work. But still, I sort of like the idea of different torpedo tube "calibers". This ship would have three really badass tubes, and two more standard ones... Perhaps her very raison d'etre? The Yeager certainly looks way too cool to be a Frankenstein ship IMHO. And has a prewar registry and all. She evokes a feeling of being to Intrepid what Miranda was to Constitution - a slightly uglier arse, a bit rougher skin, some uprating in the torpedo department and downrating in the deflector one. While the Intrepid is an all-around exploring sort of shipamathing, this baby (may I call her Griffin class?) is more oriented towards combat. Unlike the Miranda, she sports a *smaller* shuttlecraft contingent than her big sister, but has shuttlebays nevertheless - the vertical aft corners of the former "warp cowlings" could very well be sliding doors for hangarettes, especially as they are conspiuously painted in the original model. And the similarity to the Maquis ships is neither a coincidence nor a proof that there exists a third, larger variant of the Maquis ships that can donate body parts like this. It is just the result of the Yeager having been created by the same company/bureau/whatever that built the Maquis ships. Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
