Miranda-class kicks ass!

Post by Kuja »

Mriandas are my favorite ST ship. Why? They kick ass, and look good doing it!

A few pics of the Miranda:

I'll never forgive them for removing the roll bar:

If I were forced to have a ST ship, I'd pick the Sovereign or a Miranda...

Yours too? Cool. Something about it rubs me the right way, maybe the fact that the Reliant got beaten to within an inch of its life without even a trace of a warp core breach. :roll:

Or that it just looks so slim and deadly from the front. Or that it's design leans a lot more towards combat than the Constitution's does.

Lovely design but I'll only take one if it's proven beyond any doubt that dropping a feather on the glowy parts won't cause an immediate explosion!

Well, the E-A also took quite a beating without any trace of a core breach... of course, they were having some other core problems at the time, anyway.

I, too really like the Miranda (with the rollbar) it is a good ship. But I think I like the Centuar better, basically the Miranda type for the Excelcior.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

My favorite ST ship has got to be the Ambassador class, Enterprise-B, the only Enterprise besides the A that looked like a warship. But the Miranda definately comes in at a close second.

I think part of the appeal of the Miranda is the underslung nascelles, when WOK came out it was the first Federation ship showing a break from the Constitutions I was exposed to.
