Star Trek Book Update

Just pasting this up. For kicks

Cool, that looks like quite a nice ship, if a little boxy in places, still, that's a scaling thing, to do with deck heights

It's supposed to be a explorer, not a warship.

I understand that, however, defensive posturing should be considered. Not that the pod is ment to carry additional weaponry, but that while tactically withdrawing, that it is far less likely to be hit.

I don't know about fugly, but I don't like the side view all that much. The rollbar pod doesn't flow with the rest of the ship, it just looks tacked on. I'd like a curve starting from the rear of the engineering section might have been better. Maybe following the curve from the front of the saucer.

On this I have to agree, whole hearted. If the rollbar was connected to the nacelles maybe. Or here is an idea. Split the pod into two, and place both haves on the connecting frames above the nacelles. Therefore, if one gets hit, the other is still functioning.
