Now there's an interesting design. I like the look of having the nacelles folded in towards the hull (at impulse, no doubt). Makes the ship a smaller, less vulnerable target.

Cheers lads :)

Its my USS Griffin just another redesign trying to get a better shape.
I'm mostly happy with the top shape its the side that looks like a brick lol

Yep darkthunder my original design has the retracting nacelles and a false bridge that absorbs  weapon damage and trasfers it to ships systems (bridge is on deck 3)
and yes with nacelles retracted it makes the Sheild power use less though you are limited to warp 1

didn't we all tell you to toss the escape pod arrangement you have?  or did you model them in?

I don't think King Class Scout meant any offense with his comment. Thou, I understand if it came off as such, it likely wasn't intended.

well, it's "set" now (the design is where you want it), so don't worry about it.  looks like you've only got the e-hull left to do...

Escape pods look miles better, but there's a lot of empty space on the head now... What about a voyager style?
