You might want to check on this one. The Galaxy Class ship was not introduced until TNG era, as in the Pilot for STNG, Picard said it was a new class. (The protype ship was the Enterprise, but they opted to call the class Galaxy for its exploration roots. The Yamato was the sister ship. I could be wrong)
Originally the Star Trek mod was not going to have carriers or ships by the current SEIV classification. (Escort etc) They were going to be named after each original class as they were in the show. But limitation on SEIV prevented this. This has been addressed in the latest patch for SEIV and perhaps now we can get back to brass roots.
The mod can never be cannon. I have stated this a billion times and will go on stating it. This will never be star fleet battles. The mod is our attempt to make SEIV into a nice playable Star Trek universe game. Kwok chose the era as TNG, and that has been the focus of the mod.
The problem with one race, IE the Federation, having a ton of ships is the size limitations. Say you have 12 hull sizes, well, the only thing seperating them is 100kt starting with 100kt, 200kt, etc and this is primarily why the current system was chosen.
Adding new weapons to the mod at this point is very very low on my priority list. We have been developing the mod for well over a year, and what we have is the result of all the input to date.
At this point all I can do is swap the Galaxy X for the Soveriegn. There is a juggernought mount for the game, and that will give you a nice weapon.
As for adding a ship, I am sorry, but at this point I have no plans on adding any more federations ships. You can however swap out any image you want with one that you do want.
So lets look at what was accomplished here:
1. The Galaxy X needs to be swapped with the Sovereign.
2. The Ambassador and the Nebula need to be swapped
3. The soveriegn needs to have access to the dreadnought mount
Ok, a nice list.
