[Ships OF The Line] Sovereign Class

In 1994 Captain Picard and his Next Generation crew said their final farewells to their Enterprise after one half of the ship exploded, and the other half smashed to the surface of Veridian III. Sadly for the Enterprise, it was the victim of not only Klingon meddling, but technical requirements; the Galaxy Class was a fine ship for their television adventures, but this was the movie world they'd b...[Read More]

While some ships are designed to be travelling research labs and others comfortable homes for long t...[Read More]

[Ships of the Line] The Oberth Class

One of the more unique and memorable ships to emerge from nearly sixty years of Star Trek is the Oberth Class. One of many new models introduced during the original series movie era, the Oberth class first appeared as the Grissom, an ill-fated science ship assigned to study the newly formed Genesis planet only for the crew to find themselves on the wrong side of a Klingon torpedo. Unveiled in The ...[Read More]

Starfleet ships are designed for exploration. The Defiant is one of very few designed to fight.

Initially planned to ba a larger version of a ru...[Read More]

[Ships Of The Line] Centaur Class

Before the age of CGI, Star Trek's art teams relied on models to bring Starfleet to life with the Next Generation and Deep Space Nine keeping the budgets down by re-using movie era designs as the backbone of the fleet. Even during the Dominion War arc where CGI was utilised at times, the fleet was filled with outdated Excelsior and Miranda class starships with the occasional Galazy, Nebula or Firs...[Read More]
