[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] This was, in my mind, THE best episode of Enterprise I have ever watched. Intelligent, emotional performances by every single actor (with the exception of the cardboard Romulans, but that's for another post). Shran's anguish over Talas's death was perhaps the most poignant scene in Trek since DS9's "The Visitor." But since this is the S&T forum, lets talk about ships... 1. The Rigelian vessel destroyed by the Flea was another reuse of the Hazari vessel from Voyager, last used to represent an (gasp!) Earth ship, possibly even a Starfleet ship. So obviously whoever is in charge of sorting through the CGI archives for a ship-of-the-week didn't seriously consider this vessel as an honest-to-goodness Earth ship. 2. As stated above, the Romulan senator makes a comment that the drone was a modified warbird. So it looks like the ship from "Minefield" may not be used again. Too bad. Even though I thought the design was way too advanced for a 22nd century Rommie ship, it at least looks like a "bird" and not a "bug." 3. The alliance ship shots, both through the window and during the pullback, was just spectacular. Some observations: We see the D'Kyr-type, the "former" combat cruiser Sh'ran-type, The Kumari-class Andorian ships, and the Tellarite Xindi/Arkonian reuse ship. I really wish Eaves or someone would have made an original design for the Tellarite ship, but I confess to actually liking the design of the reuse ship. Also, the Andorian ships looked a lot longer & slimmer from their side view than I remember. 4. The aforementioned scaling problem with the Flea. When it strafes Enterprise, it looks no bigger than a shuttle. No wonder the Romulans lost the war. [/QB][/QUOTE]
