[QUOTE]Originally posted by Phoenix: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Futurama Guy: [qb] [QUOTE] Phoenix [qb] Perhaps for the Klingons, Federation "Starships" or "Heavy Cruisers" are "Battle Cruisers" (they do like fighting, after all). [/qb] [/QUOTE]The [i]Kronos One[/i] was identified as a "Klingon Battle Cruiser" by the Computer/PA on ST6, so maybe it's mutual, or maybe it's just a general classification interchangable with "Heavy Cruiser"...as that is what the [i]Enterprise, Enterprise-A, and Enterprise-C[/i] were recognized as by Starfleet. [/qb][/QUOTE]TNG Angel One mentions Romulan Battle Cruisers (presumbly Warbirds) TNG The Arsenal of Freedom calls the USS Drake (possibly a Wambundu Class) a Light Cruiser. TNG Peak Performance calls the USS Hathaway a Star Cruiser (although I don't think this is a SF person talking). TNG Conspiracy calls the Ambassador Class USS Horatio a Heavy Cruiser, and the USS Renegade and USS Thomas Paine (the former possibly a New Orleans Class, the latter definately one) Frigates. The TNP script calls the Klingon ships (D-7s I presume) Heavy Cruisers, and the dialogue calls them Cruisers. The Klingon ships in TWOK are called Cruisers. The USS Enterprise is called a Battle Cruiser, and the USS Grissom/Klingom BOP a Scout in TSFS. As you mentioned, Kronos One is called a Battle Cruiser in TUC. The Enterprise is called a Battle Cruiser in ENT Judgement. Thus it would seem we have, in descending order of power: Battle Cruiser Heavy Cruiser (Medium Cruiser perhaps?) Light Cruiser Frigate (Destroyer?) Escort Scout (not sure of the last two's order) I'm not sure about the canonicity of Dreadnought - perhaps someone could clarify this? Perhaps they have some more classes (the Prometheus or Sovereign may be Battleships, for instance) Edit: I think I should point out that a large part of this is from [URL=http://www.st-spike.de/]Spike's website[/URL].
