It may not turn out that badly for them. Sometimes alien peoples are just that, alien. If there was no reasonable way for them to achieve a good outcome here, then there's no real problem. Blaming people for circumstances well beyond their control isn't really the way the Federation does things, after all. That's more of a Cardassian thing.
Hey, it's your incentive structure, pal. Look what it made!
That's because we're making this deal with a woman who's spent the last several years watching her political majority get worn down by attrition and who just lost the position of prime minister. She's not necessarily a happy person.
[Salutes, puts on the song.]

... I'm not familar with that phrase?
1. Can we have the current Starfleet civilian ships totals like you gave for the members under the MWCO report this year?
They were current for end of 2314.Q1.
No.
They haven't changed.
When did crewing come into this? We built the bare minimum number of Oberths because they are tin cans not because they took six crew.
I think a lot of the playerbase had a lot of reasons to want to replace the Oberth other than crewing considerations. We're talking about a TOS-era ship with an sr:br ratio of 4:1 and more stats of "1" than not. You'd be hard pressed to find a reason that isn't in play to replace the Oberth.
This is a fair point, although the roughly 900-kiloton designs I've seen are still big enough to make someone whose idea of a science vessel is an Oberth go "wow this is bloated..." if they ignore the realities that led youse guys to design it, anyway.
We are the Federation - we take science serious. Look at our goal(s)!This is a fair point, although the roughly 900-kiloton designs I've seen are still big enough to make someone whose idea of a science vessel is an Oberth go "wow this is bloated..." if they ignore the realities that led youse guys to design it, anyway.
I still like this design. It has high science (of course), but is also good at event response otherwise, except for combat challenges. I would be fine with using it as a garrison frigate for peaceful sectors. And dangerous sectors I want to garrison with an Excelsior, anyway.
Honestly I don't see why it even needs Combat 3 to do the job. Our garrison ships don't fight all that often; the whole point of the border zones is to intercept heavily armed raiding vessels before they get far into our space.
Yes the stats are accurate, it is +1 L, +1 H, +1 P for +1 E compared to the Connie-B which improves its combat potential a lot.
yey rennie!
I luv rennies
Why do we need combat for a science ship, also, is it possible to cut down the crew required for the vessel?
