[QUOTE]Originally posted by EdipisReks: [QB] PsyLiam, there is a reason why the ships are labeled with the words "variant" and "subclass". they aren't new classes, but variations and subclasses. they do this in real life. as ships are refined during production, different variants emerge. if the [i]USS Poontang[/i] is a [i]Chitlin'[/i] class destroyer, but it differs from the rest of the [i]Chitlin'[/i] class destroyers due to a difference in baboon cannon design and shoehorn propulsion spike design, then the [i]USS Poontang[/i] is a "Poontang Variant" type. it is still [i]Chitlin'[/i] class ship, but it is labeled differently to show that it has a somewhat different configuration. if more ships are made to the same specs as the [i]USS Poontang[/i], then it becomes the "[i]Poontang[/i] type, [i]Chitlin'[/i] class destroyer". or in otherwords, it is part of the [i]USS Poontang[/i] sub-class. the [i]Venture[/i] was a variant of the [i]Galaxy[/i] class. i agree, however, that in such cases as the 4 foot and 6 foot TNG [i]Enterprise[/i]s, or the TAS and TOS [i]Enterprise[/i]s, that it is silly to claim they are variants as they are clearly the same ship in the same general time period (and in the case of the TNG models, sometimes the same ship in the same 30 second time period).
