Thank you SVC!

In X1, there is a certain other CX listed - one which shares a name with a particularly well-known example of the 1700-series.

Is that ship still present in the setting, or is it no longer valid?

Thank you, indeed! That greatly clarifies things for me and the listing of CA hulls is very helpful, as well.

And new names added to the list. Thank you, SVC.

I presume it's still valid. Did it have an NCC number?

Assuming I am following this correctly, it is "NCC-1701A".

that's the same number as the Enterprise A from trek.

I was trying to refer to the NCC-1701A Enterprise, yes.

I wasn't sure about where ships which shared names and registries with post-1979 Franchise ships stood. For example, would there be an issue if a Federation X2-era cruiser was to be named Excelsior, or NCC-1701B Enterprise for that matter - even if the ships in question did not look like the Franchise equivalents?

(Indeed, what about potential names for Early Years Terran, Vulcan, Andorian or other ships - would there be an issue if they matched names from the more recent Franchise take on pre-TOS?)

Good navy names are just that, and we use what we think is cool no matter what franchise did or did not use that or something like that.

We just do not do fiction about the enterprise or the voyager.

We list enterprise in ship name lists all the time.

And of course, regardless of what Trek says, or what SFU says, if you want to use a particular ship name on your miniature, use it.

There were 144 names in the Franz Joseph Tech manual for Star Fleet Heavies as well as the same amount for Transport tugs. What happenned to the rest of those ships. I see the contracts were re-assigned in samo cases, my guess is that they were either not built or scrapped.

MikeBurke · Post by **MikeBurke** » Fri Sep 11, 2009 1:04 pm

So are we going to recognize the Enterprise as it was in the last movie? To me it looked like a perversion. It just does not seem to be the same ship to me

Post by **Steve Cole** » Fri Sep 11, 2009 3:43 pm

Way back when, I went through the FJ list and took the names I liked and ignored the ones I didn't. Then I filled the gaps with names I like.

As far as the "new alternate timeline enterprise" it's not part of our license so I have nothing to say or do about it. I'm sure that a dozen people have already posted illegal SSDs and Cards all over internet, and I'm sure you can find them easily enough. It would violate my contract with Paramount for me to tell you where they are.

And, just to be clear, no one else can post that information on this forum. Since Steve owns this forum, allowing that to be posted here would be close enough to him telling you where they are to cause problems.

So, please don't.

Besides... why stick roast beef into your ice cream?

I like roast beef; tender and delicious especially with potatoes. I liked the new Trek movie (even it's unique take on the classic designs).

I like ice cream, sweet and perfectly cold for a hot day. I like the SFU in all its consistency and depth.

I see no need to mix the two, in either case.

I'm sure some company will eventually hand Paramount a bunch of money to go do yet another Trek wargame (or RPG for that matter). They'll sell some copies, but it won't pull many faithful away from the SFU (none of the others have). It also won't stick around for more than five years - it will get orphaned when that company is sold, or goes bankrupt, or Paramount won't renew their license, and leave its players stuck with no new products and a bunch of very expensive books (I'm looking at you LuG).
