Thanks, Boris! I'v been doodling various ships and experimenting with scaling now, and it seems that things work best with a 150-200m Martok-style BoP and a 60-80m Kruge-style BoP, with the larger BoPs confined to the alternate universe. A 67m Merchantman would work just fine with a 80m Kruge BoP in some scenes, while other scenes have to be disregarded in any case... And 67m is IMHO (just barely) enough to accommodate the 441 Klingon passengers required by "Rules of Engagement", if we assume the engines do not take up too much room.

The idea that new Klingons would speek a language different from that of the old smooth-heads is also very intriguing...

Well, the smooth and bumpy Klingons are the same, as evidenced by Kang, Kor, and Koloth. However, they can still have other languages. It'd be like if the Klingons in ST3 were Terrans, and Kruge & Mrs. Kruge spoke Mandarin Chinese to each other while everyone else on the ship only spoke Catalan...
