    Favorite Ship (Klingon)

    My favorite Klingon Ships are the K'ti'inga Class Battlecruiser from the Motion Picture era, and the Vor'Cha class Attack Cruiser.

    The K't'inga has a bulldog appearance, and generally strikes terror into the hearts of those not wishing a confrontation with the Klingons.

    The Vor'Cha is sheer firepower, plain and simple. See one of these bad boys cloak off your starboard bow...run for your lives!

    But those are my humble opinions.

    Respectfully,

    I chose the Vor'cha because it looks big and dangerous, but still has a dangerous sleekness that the lumbering Negh'var lacks.

    The BoP gets an honorable mention for the way it maneuvered in big Dominion War battles, but I got sick of watching it in the movies. They blew up the Enterprise in III, attacked a whaler in IV, attacked Kirk & Co in V and VI, and blew up the other Enterprise in Generations. That's five movies in a row. Enough already!

    I like the K'Vort myself

    Big, nasty, dangerous looking and just plain EVIL

    Then again, I am still trying to link TOS Klingon mentality with TNG/DS9 Klingons. There must have been helluva civil war after STVI to bring about such a radical shift in the populace.

    ...which is why I really want to set a game in that era!

    K'Tinga

    I remember seeing ST:TMP in the theater ,opening day (my parents pulled me out of school to wait in line for tickets).The classic Klingon ship looked meaner,ready to well,get whacked by V'Ger.It was an awesome scene that blew me away.What a cool ship.

    The TMP K'Tinga. Just way cool...

    B'Rel gets honourable mention.
    "War is an ugly thing but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feelings which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."

    Hmmm...well,so far it looks like the venerable K't'inga class Battlecruiser from the Motion Pictures is the clear leader.
    But that all can change.

    I'm jumping on the bandwagon here: K'tinga-bells, K't'inga-bells, K't'inga all the way! That opening scene in TMP provided a great link between the old and new; still familiar design, but upgraded and with that great, grungy old Nazi WWII submarine look. The interior was excellently done - preserved and expanded on the atmosphere we expected.

    K'Tinga. Menacing, deadly, tough. I remember opening day of TMP. They were the best part of the movie. I love the movie era anyway.

    Vor'Cha for myself. I was pleased to see that the Klingon Empire added something new to the playing field. As for the BoP, I got sick of watching it dominate the Star Trek movies and I expected Mortok would use the Vor'Cha to carry his flag in DS9 but he used the BoP. BLAH!!

    I wholeheartedly agree with the good Captain on that last post. The Klingon Bird of Prey just dominated the screen, and most ships in the movies...and at some point, some of the Next Generation series. The Vor'Cha was a breath of fresh air.

    Of course, the one thing I always wanted to see on the big screen was the NCC-1701 or 1701-A go up against a K't'inga. I thought I was gonna see that in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, but alas, all we saw was Q'onoS Wa arm its torpedo tube.

    BTW, did anyone notice in DS9's "The Way of the Warrior" that we finally saw a Bird of Prey fire a torpedo from an aft launcher?
    Guessing that they are K'vorts. I don't think B'rels have aft launchers.

    I like the Birds of Prey, even if they've been overused. I recall "Yesterday's Enterprise" and the way they looked when they swooped in for the kills.

    Fun stuff.

    The Vor'cha wins in my book on the "cool looks" factor alone
