We've already been through that. The nemesis official site has a 360-degree virtual set pic, and it's quite conclusively the E-E bridge set, with most of the featrues squished into the aft half. This leads us to believe that it's going to be only a one-wall set with mostly closeup shots.

Getting back to the shiplist... perhaps the second to last ship is the Bova? It would make sense. The last one has to be Archer.
And I really, really hope we get to see the Galaxy somehow, if the Titan isn't a Galaxy class ship itself. Wishful thinking...

well, with the Galaxy being listed there, hopefully we'll see it. the fourth ship (the possible Aries/Aires) could be in the Ambassador class range. that is really the class i want to see on the big screen. too bad they chose not to use it for Generations.

The new Nemesis phaser has been discused already, in theory it shouldn't be any narrower in diameter than the Voyager-era Type-II, it just looks smaller because the emitter cone is more elongated. In theory. . .
Even stranger, however, is the redress of the FC phaser rifle. They're removed the old triangular light.sight and replaced it with a smaller array with forward tubelike sight and, er, horns.

those aren't horns. that is a Bushnell HOLOsight. they cost a couple hundred bucks. that's actually an older version. the current version looks a bit different. Paramount probably got a good deal on the obsolete version.

I'm not sure which I hate more, Colin - your obsessive stating of the obvious, or the tedious way in which you do so. I think we all know how significant a USS Archer will be.
Thanks for the info, Edy. No pictures at all of the old version, just so I can be absolutely sure you're not having us on? 8)

i was unable to find a picture online of the first version. go check out any issue of Combat Handguns or Guns and Weapons for Law Enforcement from 1997 or so, and you'll see plenty of ads. oh, wait. England. i forgot.
[edit: due to 3 seconds of searching by me on google with both the keywords "holosight" and "1997", this post is obsolete. please look at the next post.)

i'm glad they finally put a sight on a phaser. point shooting is remarkably unreliable past 15 feet or so. ask Chuck Taylor, if you don't believe me.

probably the USS Archer was named for its predecessor, the USS Archer NCC-1069, an Arbiter-subclass Akyazi-class perimeter action-ship.
oooh dey're all sayin' 'dat capped in mic, he's scwewy!'
