[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] I have to disagree, although it's a very good idea that some starships have intended variants for specific roles (like the Venture). As to there being diffrent types of Ambassadors: I think that's what the [i]Apollo[/i] was. I think the "Heavy Cruiser" term refers to all Ambassadors after the much larger Galaxy class came about and is used to avoid confusion. After all, Starfleet refers to the Defiant as an escort while the Cardassians call it a Warship (the Nebula too for that matter!). I think the diffrences have to represent a design upgrade: after all, the Galaxy is a new class and still has at least one upgrade that we've seen in the [i]Venture[/i] and the Excelsiors had their upgrade too while still keeping the class name. That's not to say that there could still be older Ambassadors without the upgrade still in service at the fringe of Fed space. :D The Ambassador was probably the fleet's main exploration ship even into the DS9 era and many were likely "out there" during the war. I really like the idea of Ambassadors in the fleet action: we just didint see them atthe rear or as the main ships of the second wave of ships. ;) All I know is that my own fleet o' models includes the [i]USS California[/i] with it's registry of NCC-60218 and she does'nt have the second shuttlebay, so there. That makes it canon. :p [/QB][/QUOTE]
