In a Galaxy Where No One Has Gone Before...

 Ok, so lots of people have done this before.

Our weekly AD&D Forgotten Realms game was canceled again because we wanted to make starships!

My oldest is really into the Fantasy Flight Games/EDGE Star Wars RPG. I do admit it is rather fun. He was reading over his books while working on ships while I was busy working some Kneadatite "Green Stuff" into areas of my USS Mercy kitbash.

We were talking about starships and I put the Mercy down for a bit to dry. The next step is taking a Dremel to it to smooth out the green stuff and repaint. So we decided to build some Star Trek ships for Star Wars.

I am 100% sure people will have a lot of opinions here on what we got "wrong" and that is great! These are our interpretations, but if you have suggestions, post them below. Plus, when it comes to ships like the USS Mercy and USS Protector *I* am really the only authority here.

USS Mercy

I have talked about the USS Mercy NCC 3001, many times here. I am still trying to figure how big this ship should be. The in-universe idea was to upgrade the existing Oberth-class spaceframe with newer designed nacelles (Ambassador-class prototypes) and a larger Daedalus-class "saucer" section, called "the hospital" section here. There is some disagreement on how large an Oberth is, other than "small." 

Based on what I can figure out, I am going to say, for now, the USS Mercy and the other Asclepius-class Emergency Medical Response ships are 360 meters. About the same size as the Constitution-class Enterprise-A or roughly half the size of the Mystic-class USS Protector.

Hyperdrive: ~ 0.7 (Warp 9.0) Cruising speed of Warp 7

I figure that this is a tough ship. It has powerful shields, but also ablative armor and polarized hull plating. This allows it to fly into war zones, drop its shields, and then beam out all the injured. So what it lacks in firepower for a ship of its size in 2295 it makes up for in protective tech. 

This really makes me want to stat it up for other systems like I did for the Protector below. 

USS Protector

The Protector is the first kitbash starship I have shared here, but certainly not my first.

Name: USS Protector, NX 3120

I don't have a new Captain for the Protector, really. It had been my friend Greg's character Valerie Beaumont during a shake down cruise, but she now commands the USS Mystic. 

Though I think I might have something now after working on this.

USS Challenger-C

I built this model over Christmas break, but I still need to add the final decals and paint it. But I knew it was going to be the Challenger-C. Like the Protector, I had not yet chosen a captain. But it became apparent I had to pay respects to one of my favorite Star Trek series and one of my favorite In Search Of topics. The Captain of the Challenger-C is Bradward Boimler and this means his first officer HAS to be Beckett Mariner, because there is no way she would want to be Captain. I can actually hear her saying "No. Shut up. Being captain is lame. First officers get all the away missions." 

I am not the only one who thought this was a good idea, bluenoser18 on Reddit did mock-ups of Capt. Boimler and Cmdr. Mariner. Both are older, more mature, and ready to lead into the 25th century.

My son did the Enterprise-D, but the Challenger-C would have similar stats.

So yeah, the Star Trek ships can run circles around the Star Wars ones until the Star Wars ship hits hyperspeed, and then they have the advantage. 

Also Trek ships have better shields. We are going to try this out with the FFG/EDGE Star Wars RPG and see how they work.
