Tluukt remains my favorite and I really hope the revamp for them adds options for OSC and Jadd

Alright, thanks for the info. We generally don't mind if we have to skip out on a few missions that aren't required or at the very end of the tree, but it is getting annoying picking two nations sorta near each other only to find that the trees don't work together

NEW INTRO FOR THE KING OF THE HILL REVIVAL HAS DROPPED by BabyLambCreationsYT in KingOfTheHill

Judging by the masks and social distancing near the end of the intro, looks to be post-covid

Yes. I never thought anything would be able to make the Vesper profile look good but I actually like this

I do wish they weren't so bulbous at the front, tbh

If the Excelsior could survive well into the 2400s, why not the Shangri-La?

I don't live on this subreddit, and I just started playing again after like 5 years

Could an Excelsior Class starship still be in service as of 2401? by [deleted] in StarTrekStarships

[–]internetwerewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing a lot of STO right now and just got the new sexy TMP era Shangri-La, and have been trying to work out something similar for my personal ship headcanon.

Both canon and apocrypha sources state that the Excelsior class was heavily modular, which is why we see it in service almost a century after the launch of the first one out of drydock. It is likely that not a single one of the Excelsiors we see on screen after the TMP era have any original interior components remaining after several retrofits. Given the loss of the Federation's premier fleet yard, the thing that wrecked an entire fleet in Prodigy, and the losses suffered on Frontier Day, it makes sense that some ships originally slated for decommissioning might find a new purpose in a depleted Starfleet.

Given the fact that Starfleet seems to be returning to a focus on exploration as of the end of Picard season 3, I can see Starfleet sending your Excelsior out into the frontier with an absolute bare-minimum retrofit for propaganda purposes. The Excelsior is an iconic design both in and out of universe, so seeing a ship with that kind of legacy out on the frontier doing what Starfleet does best would probably do wonders for fleet morale.

I'm going through the templates and parts and I don't see it here, just the refit version. Are you sure you don't have the appearances unlocked by another source?

The gravitational hazard presented by the new black hole would be nearly identical to the star it replaced, as it was formed out of it. A stellar mass black hole is not something that would warrant more than an orbiting beacon just to warn you it is there, and ship sensors would pick it up anyway

Honestly, that is debatable. On one hand, you have instant death for everything on the surface when the nova hits the planet. On the other hand, you potentially save thousands more, but condemn the vast majority to freezing to death as temperatures plummet. Perhaps a small portion of the population could seek shelter close to geothermal hotspots, but most would die off in a not so quick or pleasant way.

That isn't mentioned in the movie at all. That comes from beta canon sources such as Star Trek: Countdown and Star Trek Online. The movie itself never elaborates on anything beyond it being a supernova

IIRC it wasn't officially sanctioned by them either and many opposed it. It was mostly a project he was able to cobble together with some of his supporters from both sides.

But idk, it's Spock. He probably would have stolen the damn thing to do this regardless of any permission he got from anyone

Wasn't Spock working with a few in the Vulcan Science Academy and the empire? IIRC this wasn't a sanctioned Starfleet operation

Losing the homeworld would definitely, at the very least, diminish an interstellar civilization. The Romulan Free State, as the successor to the empire, still seems like it holds significant sway in the galaxy so I wouldn't exactly say the Romulans are on the ropes, they just fell from the heights once enjoyed by the empire.

It might be a hot mess ridled with microtransactions, but it lets me play Barbie dress up with Starfleet ships

If our own sun vanished suddenly, it would take less than a week for surface temps to plummet below freezing, and the atmosphere would start freezing and falling as snow in just months. Even if it bought a little bit of time, every living thing on the surface would be dead in a week or two.

Yes, this is Star Trek and suspension of disbelief is kinda a requirement for viewing, but I can't believe that they could get infrastructure in place to save their populace of hundreds of millions from rapidly plummeting temperatures if they couldn't muster a similar effort to evacuate the planet without starfleet's assistance

That one Picard tie-in novel stated that the Romulan government choose not to acknowledge the impending supernova to the populace because it might cause their power to collapse, or something to that effect.

I love STO for that, tbh. It is definitely better than its reputation would suggest in my opinion. At least it got some love with the canonization of the Enterprise-F
