    Thumbs up

    Excelsior all the way, and I'm not talking about the new "preggy" refit (i.e., Enterprise-B).
    Anyhoo, just some random thoughts...

    You gotta go with the girl who brought you to the dance...Connie.

    Of course, the Sovereign is a very, very close second...

    This is a tough choice, because there are so many ship classes that I like. For TOS and Movie-era, I'd have to choose the Constitution-class (and its refit version). For TNG and beyond, I'd have to go with the Sovereign-class, with the Intrepid-class coming in a close second. Like Lowly Uhlan, though, I'll add the NX-class as an honorable mention (it may, when all is said and done, be my favorite ship, but I need more exposure to it first).

    I would have to go with the Constitution all the way through and I would be honored to serve aboard the Enterprise under any of her Captains.

    If you read the beginning of my statement you will note that it is referring to the Constitution-class not the Excelsior, Ambassador, Galaxy, Sovereign or NX-class.

    Galaxy class. Pack your family on board and go to visit the stars, that's how I love the future! And lots of nice recreational facilites to spend your time on...

    As for the coolest designs (ie beautiful ship I wouldn't like to serve on), have to go with Sovereign (when it's not being borgified or having its saucer sliced in half), with the refit Connie not too far behind.

    I have to add that I certainly wouldn't mind having a Danube-class runabout to tool around in.

    Sure would cut down on the commute.

    I would definitely have to say the Akira class....if it comes down to combat situations...either the Defiant or the Akira would rock. And despite all the differences I've read regarding the Akira's armaments, I still dig the idea of it being a fast torpedo cruiser, with 15 torpedo tubes capable of deploying photon or quantum torpedoes. I'm sure it's exploratory capabilities are quite nice, but it has speed and firepower to boot. If an alien were to come up to this ship and decide to cop an attitude with us, I would love to see the looks on their faces when their captain orders:
    "Tactical Analysis!"

    But that is my humble opinion.

    OMG Reg, that was hilarious.

    And despite how much I may love this class (totally different species), I kinda feel for the Klingons and their K't'inga class battlecruisers. I mean, imagine some giant omnipotent being putting a halt to an advancing K't'inga, lifting the topside of the boom section, and sitting down to read the morning paper. Those poor poor Klingons.. Then again, one can guess as to what phasers and toilet paper have in common.

    Respectfully and irreverently,
    General Chang
