[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shakaar: [QB] Wow, I really like these two you posted http://jason9704.fotopic.net/p6445847.html Reminds me of the ventral weight on a sailboat- I almost feel like it should be carrier further with a more vertical ship- perhaps that would look too unFederation. It does trouble me that the nacelles are to either side of the secondary hull- Warp drive is supposed to function by warping space between the two nacelles to push the ship forward- which is why the nacelles are usually out on pylons and extended up over the ship. Perhaps if it looked more like a quad-nacelle- but with the two somewhat built together I'd like it more... Still very cool. http://jason9704.fotopic.net/p4268821.html I really like it- though it does remind me of the Steamrunner class with a lot of the saucer cut away. I would not see this as an explorer, but as a combat vessel. It's like the Steamrunner, only there was a war going on.. and the team at the shipyards pondered how they could make it faster and do so using less material. I've seen a number of places that "It was the Titan- and it should be bigger, not smaller". Those were the rules though, and they do have a logic. It is not after all the "Titan Class"- it is the "Luna Class" And lunar bodies tend to be the smallest. I often stuck to similar naming schemes for my ships as was started with the Danube Class (all then are named after rivers) The Luna Class are all named after moons- (Just Terran moons- and though I'd like the UFP to be a little less Terrancentric.... ) but as they are named after Terran moons, the design need only apply to the class, because it cannot apply to all the vessels individually- it'd be odd to have a huge USS Amalthea- the smallest moon of Jupiter, named after the nymph brought milk to Jupiter when he was an infant.
