I always get a charge out of seeing these ships, straight out of the Franz Joseph Starfleet Technical Manual, from back in the 20th Century!
Kzinti raiders, maybe? Orion pirates? Romulans testing their new technology? Ah, the good old days of the future. Lt. Arex would give this 3 thumbs up!

Captain: Tactical go to yellow alert.

Tactical: Aye aye, sir shields are up and weapons at the ready.

Β 

Captain: Helm slow to one quarter impulse.

Helm: one quarter aye.

Β 

Captain: Coms have they responded to our hails?

Coms: no sir.

Β 

Captain: Navigation scan for their plasma trail maybe we will find their cargo.

Navigation: scanning now nothing in the near vicinity captain.

Β 

This is nice are you going to do a follow up picture of the pirates and the booty they stole maybe a firefight as well maybe orions would make a perfect subject for it.

Β This is a very handsome image! (though one must admit that my reaction to single-nacelle designs is always conflicted; they're perfectly valid constructions, but always seem a little off-model).Β

I've never known how to feel about single-nacelled ships. But you do them justice. I wonder since they have a single warp engine, if the warp core would be more compact.

thefirstfleet In reply to Klingon8088 [2019-09-23 17:18:02 +0000 UTC]


Yeah, they weren't meant to be long-distance ships, like the Constitution class. Hit fast, hit hard is the concept here.

Not going to lie, but I have a soft spot for 23rd century starfleet aesthetic, I am envious of the humans and aliens who get to live in the star trek universe. Splendid work on this fine work of digital art!

Wasn't sure whether or not it was built that way, as the stubs look kind of designed rather than damaged.

A Starfleet scout responds to a distress call from a federation freighter, warping in they see they are too late as the assailants have made off with the precious cargo of dilithium crystals, the freighter has half a warp nacelle missing and fires on decks 5,6 & 7 on the port side of the saucer section, fire suppression systems off line after the attack

I smell the work of the Orion Syndicate. Piracy is their stock in trade and they were pretty much toe-to-toe with the Federation in the mid-22nd Century, even ahead in some ways.
