I'll explain my thought processes in the comments if anyone is curious. A Mission Profile will still need to be chosen.

The campaign I've been playing is set in 2370, but none of my players are well versed in Trek lore, so they don't care that Sovereign class ships are floating around at the same time the Enterprise-D is in service). Obviously, they could be played normally in STO's time period - 2410 - but you can work backward if you want and reduce system points (Or not. These designs completely ignore the 'Refit' step of starship creation, since most of them don't have a established service dates.

I always thought there were a lot of great designs in that game that don't get a lot of appreciation due to how quickly they get eclipsed by more advanced tiers. A friendly reminder regarding spoilersAt present the expanded Trek universe is in a period of major upheaval with the finale of Year Five, the Coda miniseries and the continuations of Discovery, Picard and Lower Decks and the premieres of Prodigy and Strange New Worlds, the advent of new eras in Star Trek Online gaming, as well as other post-55th Anniversary publications.

I decided to reference the Tier 1 - 4 ships in Star Trek Online. That being said, theres an awful lot of freedom in the game about what you want to be and what kind of ship youre on, which is great, despite the GM not.

So, I sought to come up with a wide variety of specialized spaceframes in different shapes and scales. When I originally read through the manual, I was rather dissatisfied with the brief array of ships available and how evenly balanced most of their stats are. I'm the kind of Trekkie and Sci Fi fan who loves ships.
