[X] Cruise Configuration (+0.2 Cruise) (Industry 17->21)
A little torn because of this, however part of the reason why they have to run so much is not enough guns. We've already upgraded the Torpedoes and I expect we'll be able to significantly increase the number of phasers. So if there's something they can't out run, hopefully they can out fight it.
That really depends on how far away the distress call is. Say 12 hours or less and sprinting there is an option, a crisis that's 2 or 3 days away... Maximum cruise will get you their faster. Given how few ships we actually have and how big space is, and how slow we are even with Warp 5 engines, I think a high sustained rate of passage will be more useful to responding to events days or weeks distant.

Naval build policy is political by its very nature, so let's not pretend it's not our problem if our Warp 5 flagship can't hit Warp 5 and sew up the sort of political wind that further secures the prestige and funding of further efforts.

It's funding from the Warp 5 programme. We only get it for the first ship, every ship after that we will be paying for normally.

Having a chance at outrunning issues seems like a good idea. Too many times in the Series the NX just could not outrun something

Sudo!Scotty's job is to keep it together for 18 hours instead of 12 like max warp tends to be.

With how short legged our ships are right now, better to prepare for a marathon instead of a sprint.

Warp 5 is a man's romance!

Dang it. That's actually a decent point.
Eh, even though the NX is already going to be shipping out with better than canonical start armament, that only means that our NX isn't going to find itself humped by Pirates like a female dog in heat. The real threats that the NX Enterprise had to run away from was the polity funded ships (like the NX) that could take a couple hits from the phase cannons, or the new atomic torpedoes, and just disdainfully sniff at us before asking with a sneer what that was supposed to do, "scuff [their] [feces}?" So~, nah, we still need legs, cause the only thing our guns are gonna dissuade are the up gunned freighters the pirates tend to use.

If warp 5 does not hit warp 5 that's on warp 5 crew not us.

Yes, but it will still effect us regardless. Also, let's be real, this class of ship is going to get into loads of trouble whether we're at war or not.

More and better everything, presumably.
