Description
Here is a blueprint design for the Dalghren Class starship.I believe the original design is from: www.deviantart.com/captshade
I am currently selling this image for £20/$30 as a high quality JPEG, on request i can change the name and number of the ship, alternatively i can get the image printed on any material you like, at any size and posted to you for an additional charge, please send me a message if you are interested.
Commissions are always open....www.deviantart.com/larundel/jo…

I really am digging this one. My only concern is such a heavy ship would likely be very slow and clumsy and a third engine would likely be in order to compensate for the mass of the ship.

When you say engine, do you mean impulse or warp?

Another warp engine to compensate for the bulkier mass of the ship which is pretty much a Reliant/Miranda class with a Constitution secondary hull and neck added. But a beefier impulse engine or two might be a good idea.

ow, im not sure if warp works like that, i assume impulse would though. also not sure where another nacells would go.

According to Einstein, as I believe I understand it, as an object speeds up as close to light speed as it could go, the mass of that object increases exponentially so if the mass will change even a little bit, the two engines try to compensate for all that extra mass that is there with the ship just standing still or going at impulse speed. An extra engine would not make her go faster but would allow for far less "stress on structural integrity while in motion", at any speed AND would allow the ship to be far more nimble and agile. Many of the newer designs for the ST: online game have designed the Federation ships of the very late 24th century and into the early 25th century with Four Engines. Admitted they are putting two engine nacelles on each of two pylons but the added nacelles would seem to make sure the ships are far more agile in combat with a fast-moving opponent. SOME of those four engine ships are made to come apart like the Prometheus while other ships just have four engines with no real design to come apart.

ok, i uderstand that but if you think about it in terms of trek, there have been larger ships built with only 2 warp nacells, and when it comes to nimble and agile that would be a case of impulse engines as ships are not nimble or agile at warp.

I understand your point, I just like the idea of more power. The more engines a ship has, the more likely that a enemy vessel will not be able to do damage to all of your engines. Even if a combatant takes out two of your warp engines, you still have one nacelle and that can get you at least Warp 2 or maybe even Warp 3 for a brief time. In ENTERPRISE after she took heavy battle damage Trip told Archer that they only had the one warp engine working and that he might be able to get the ship up to Warp 2 but only for about two hours then down to 0.5 of Warp for another 12 hours and then back to Warp 2 for another two hours. If this was able to be done then then imagine fast forwarding to almost 200 years later and what one extra nacelle could do. Especially on a dreadnought where engine nacelle damage is more likely as a dreadnought is built to fight and not do much else. The newer ships seen in ST: Online have many Federation ships with FOUR nacelles as most with 4 are designated as Command Cruisers with an Admiral likely in command. SOME with 4 can do that "Prometheus" thing by splitting the sections up and fighting with that MVAM or Multi-vector Assault Mode. NOT all of the 4 nacelled ships can do the MVAM as they just have the 4 engines but no separation design. A Command Cruiser is likely the lead ship in a small convoy.

Well well well, I wondered how a Miranda class starship would look with a secondary hull attached to it (I kinda expected something along similar lines to the general design of the Excelsior's SH, but this works too, haha). Whoever worked on this concept did a pretty decent job.

I do apologise, i will change that now

No, no, just making an observation.
