Well, I've been playing with Richard Knox's (Pneumonic 81) ships, and the Sovereign, Defiant and Akira class ships are all finished to play-testing standard, enjoy...
Here P81's Sovereign faces off with our placeholder ISD, while support ships duke it out.
Similar angle on the sovy to the first picture, but here you can also see Damo's Neb-B, and our placeholder Carrack chasing a P81 akira.
Different view of the Sovereign, here it fires its starboard nacelle phaser (c.f. Nemesis).
The Sovereign has a 5 torpedo Burst Fire turret...
The ISD hounds an Akira while the Sovereign lines up to catch it in a cross-fire
Here's that cross-fire, notice the difference in phaser color to the stock game color, I re-colored to match First Contact (my Nemesis copy is not high quality enough to get decent color).
Concerted Quantum torpedo volleys from the Sovereign and the Defiant are wearing down the ISD
Close-up of an Akira going down fighting...
Rear shot of the Defiant, pulse phasers just having fired. The more observant of you will note that I still have a bit of shifting to do to align the fire arc indicators...
Isometric Defiant view
I've included the mysterious 'is it there this episode or not' dorsal phaser on the Defiant.
The Defiant also has Quantum torpedo launchers.
Pretty
Now to the Akira...
I've given the Akira 8 Type 10 phasers (4 Dorsal, 4 Ventral) and 15 torpedo tubes (7 front, 2 Port and Starboard, 4 aft)
The best way to use the Akira against smaller, faster craft is to disable it's engines, before backing off a bit...
and obliterating it with Torpedo fire...
Galaxy, Ambassador and Nebula are next in line, plus any SW ships Damocles sends my way.
nice shots
