One might say that the bussards glow red only when used at very high power. Normally, the Constellations and Mirandas and other LN-64ers of 24th century don't run that hot, but in the war, they were operated at destructive overeall power levels since nothing less would have sufficed.

The DS9 war Mirandas did have some modified hardware, though - they had those pod-mounted impulse engines. This may not have been as major a refit as it sounds like, if the pod really is (semi-) detachable. Just connect the power lines feeding the rollbar phasers to the impulse engines instead...

Couldn't those red lights on the Miranda's pods merely be "warmed-up" launchers? You know, like the Klingon launchers used to do before they fired a torpedo?

The Zandura was posted my yours truly down a few threads. And Sternbach's newsgroup can be accessed via mail program such as Outlook Express or Netscape Messenger.

Did the Bra/ittain have a rollbar? If so, it shouldn't be any different than the Reliant. If not, it was the Lantree-type, which they totally left off...

Ah.. mais non...

Br[a/i]ttain definately had a rollbar. The rollbarless thing is an Encyclopedia error. They obviously popped the Relian's rollbar off to make it the Lantree, and had to modify the model again to put it back on again for the Br[a/i]ttain (IIRC there're pictures of this very modification in The Continuing Mission) So adding a greeble-box on the side was probably not out-of-the-question...

It's spelled Brattain. There was a mis-spell on the dedication plaque. Why is the torp-pod so gigantic on those drawings? Is that really how large they are?

"It's spelled Brattain. There was a mis-spell on the dedication plaque."

I love it when people finally declare the answer to something. Especially, an issue like this, a SWDAO, which simply needed Daniel to say exactly what happened.

Perhaps we should let him decide the Melbourne issue, as well.
