If I'm reading it correctly. We dropped from an expected 15 down to 14.2. No one likes a drop, but it's not that severe. A 5.4 percent drop.

On the other hand the photonic torpedoes doing better than average bumped our alpha strike capability, especially with 4 full launchers up front too. The icing on the cake is the 4 engine maneuverability making possible to keep targets front and center.

I don't think using the name Brazillia is appropriate at this point. The goal and dream is peaceful exploration and expansion of knowledge.


We can use Brazillia for a later ship, where the name will not potentially be urging its command staff to push harder than they should and possibly overextending the ship's abilities.

In other words, going ham on the torpedoes was well rewarded, reinforcing our questionable tactical spending habits.

We made a super expensive monster, and now the whole Quadrant knows what happens when you make the Pre-Federation humans ready to fight

I can think up many ship names based on this one video, let alone others.

Seriously, though.

[X] UES Warspite

Ah, the Warspite. I would've preferred 'UES Texas', named after the WW2 Battleship of the same name that flooded a portion of its hull to get a few degrees more of firing arc to support troops in Normandy. You know, to harken back to when humanity was badass. I think I'll take any future BB-class ships we design later being named the Texas.

Sure it is something Starfleet would do, but I feel there is a pretty big gulf in just a normal literary reference, and making one while in a real genocidal war of survival.

Well, it is a literary refrence to resistance against all odds in a genocidal war of survival against aliens. So as far as I say, it checks out.

Only reason I might prefer Warspite over it, would be because that name is a bit more.... agressive? An indication that the velvet glove has come off, and beneath it laid an iron gauntlet.

After all, one needs to speak softly and carry a big stick.

Of course, one can't rule out naming a ship of the class that. Whatever name wins, I'm dead set on writing a 'UES Thunderchild' omake when I have the time to brain it out.

I'd honestly love a class of ships being named after various references. Like, seriously, just design a Corvette or Destroyer and have each of them be named after random memes or references. It's suitably human.
