I've hit a wall with the Nacelles, so I'm thinking I may just try revising other parts until I get an awesome and unique idea.

Really, really big. So big I'd have to sue the Dyson Sphere resource that was posted a while back.

Anyway, I'm trying to figure out Pylon and Nacelle placement. The nacelles are actually the Sacagawea's, so they aren't final. Personally, upright looks way off. Especially for a ship of this size. But hey, that's what experimenting is for.

yeah, side ways would look better. And further out?

YAY! My ship being used as a base for comparison on a regular basis! Squee! >_<

Pardon the excitement. >_>;; I'm getting over my cold now so... yeah. <3

Good work so far, Prime. :) I likes the design so far. Perhaps have the nacelles more parallel to the hull, as with the Excalibur... Or something.

I'm thinking they should share that design theory, yeah. Makes sense for a craft this big. Though I'm tempted to give it Variable Geometry...

Let's not go that far...who wants variable geometry on a 20 trillion ton command battleship?

Yeah... I suppose it would be kinda overkill. I just want something to move or detach.. Maybe MVAM, or a secondary command module that can separate or something.

How about MVAM that goes into full weapon mode! pulses, quantums, romulan disruptors, Green pulses, Easy peasy powerful phaser, Tricobalts, Maybe a launchable mini Excalibur. How about somE Little un-canon Phasers as well?

Perhaps you could add a Galaxy-style detachable saucer for emergency separations.

Having two warp cores (hopefully), I could understand the addition of a controlled saucer separation system to minimize fatalities in the event of a warp core containment failure.

I like the way the front of the ship looks, if this is gonna be a huge command craft, I'd add a shuttle bay to the bottom of the ship sorta like star destroyers got.  So you can launch fighters from it/ shuttles and if the ships large enough, even smaller starships (Nova etc) Lol
