[QUOTE]Originally posted by Grand Admiral Thrawn: [QB] The Enterprise was not specifically the nearest ship to the Neutral zone and Picard was recalled to a meeting at a starbase before the Enterprise was sent to make contact, he states that the Enterprise was chosen for the encounter by Starfleet command. Likewise nowhere does it say the odysey was the closest ship rather that it was patrolling the DMZ (along with how many other ships?) Its widely accepted that the Warbird is more heavily armed than a Galaxy and the Galaxy is the pinacle of the fleet, with most other ship in starfleet being VASTLY less powerfull. As far as the Lacota being upgraded, O'Brien states that he's never seen an excelsior with that kind of firepower so we can infer it was only refitted to support Leighton's coup, if we follow this logic we could just build deffiant class space frames without warp cowlings and weld them onto the saucer section of all outdated ship designs, but the point that underneath it all they are still outdated designs. Again an Excelsior is also considerably slower than a Warbird (Tin Man) Put it this way, if a Federation Colony were the victim of a natural disaster and two thousand colonists were in need of evacuation or medical tratment, what ship class could respond other than a Galaxy or a Nebula? With their large medical staff and cargo areas? Likewise if the Federation discovered a stable wormhole to the Andromeda galaxy and chose you to lead a three year lone expedition, if they gave you command of a Miranda and told you to go through, try telling me you wouldn't have brown pants!
