Do you think they went through the trouble of designing more or less accurate blueprints? I mean I hope so but somehow I doubt they went through that much trouble to satisfy a minority of people interested into the exact amount of decks etc.

Also if the 700metres are accurate I find it kind of ironic that this enterprise would be also the largest ship ever built by starfleet. Altough I would love to see a GCS from that timeline

I don't know. But I wouldn't be at all surprised. The series are done on a far lower budget and a far tighter timescale, and it's not unusual that they put such thought into things there.

Indeed. I would imagine it would be in the region of 1,500 metres long.

Forget the Galaxy......I want to see the new Sovereign class.

Just a thought, do you suppose "those" ships will ever be built now?

I think the butterfly effect would end up making starship development substantially different.

Agreed. They might end up with something like the Defiant a bit sooner, though.

Or a "decent" GCS? or would that be too much to hope for?

The universe is already cracked enough. Please don't make it worse, Mark

Given that the nEnterprise appears already to be a good bit larger than normal, probably due to the destruction of the Kelvin, I'd imagine that ships would continue to be larger and more militarily orientated.

Hell, maybe that one guy's 16KM E-E isn't too far off in the new universe.

There hasn't been any news yet on tech books or anything.

I WANT TO KNOW!!!!!!!

There's no need to rush them, lest we wind up with another "the Executor is 19km long! No it's 8! No it's 5!"

I'm sure we'll see a tech manual soon enough, or better yet...an ICS.

lolol, good point.

ICS?

Lucasarts/films started putting out books called Incredible Cross Sections, containing ships and vehicles from the SW OT/PT. They have some nice art, cross sections and figures on firepower, acceleration etc.

Ahh, I have a few of those.

Its too bad we never really get Star Trek ones with that quality.

Maybe we will now.
