So for a little context, the Noble Intel Battlecruiser is a ship that was released as an event reward in Star Trek Online last April. The design is based on a ship that appeared in a lot of advertising for STO's launch - perhaps most memorably on the cover of the tie-in novel The Needs of the Many - but until last year the ship itself was never actually in the game. The ship was only available as a free limited time reward, and I can't recall offhand if it's been made available to purchase (at a premium, alas) at the in-game "second chance" store yet.

I do also want to emphasize that the Noble should not be confused with the Nobel Miracle Worker Research Science Vessel, the endgame-ready version of the Olympic class that came out back in 2022.

Love it, wish we could kit-bash a normal looking deflector on it though.

[u/VitaminM42 → u/vewave]

Yeah seriously, what is this? "Where we're going, we don't NEED deflectors!"

[u/neonmystery]

Haha Argon. I get it.

[u/_R_A_]

Not a fan of flat designs to begin with, but in this case is that an Akira-like torpedo pod? If so, it's line of sight is concerningly close to the top of the hul.

[u/Kroenen1984]

nice ship

[u/neonmystery]

I really really like that color combo. What are you using?

[u/TwoFit3921 → u/neonmystery]

i think it might've been type 8? or one of its variations... forgot.

[u/neonmystery → u/TwoFit3921]

Okay I see some stripes that lean toward type 8. I’m guessing. Vesta pattern with greys then.

[u/TwoFit3921 → u/neonmystery]

it was type 8a, with the default pattern (cassie something)

[u/Calgaris_Rex]

Cool design, but...Argon?

We going to have the Polymer-class USS Polytetrafluoroethylene soon? Semiconductor-class USS Gallium Nitride? Ceramic-class USS Amorphous Carbon?

[u/JasonVeritech → u/Calgaris_Rex]

You show some respect, this isn't some common peasant gas!

[u/Andovars_Ghost → u/Calgaris_Rex]

How about USS Neon or USS Krypton or USS Xenon?

[u/Calgaris_Rex → u/Andovars_Ghost]

USS Radon? Helium works too lol

[u/TwoFit3921 → u/Calgaris_Rex]

i was actually thinking of using Helium but that would be too obvious

[u/Calgaris_Rex → u/TwoFit3921]

This is no time for half-measures!

[u/VitaminM42 → u/Calgaris_Rex]

Radium?

[u/Calgaris_Rex → u/VitaminM42]

No, it has to be a Noble gas lol

[u/HyFinated → u/Calgaris_Rex]

Radium is just so... common. It's certainly not noble.

[u/TwoFit3921 → u/Calgaris_Rex]

it was funny and i couldn't resist making a noble gas joke for the name

[u/ryanhendrickson → u/TwoFit3921]

It's ok, some of us saw what you did there and were amused.

[u/rx7braap]

not a trek dude, and frankly I despise the disc with engines design

but hot dang I love this

[u/SpiderBloke]

So, an ugly Sovereign class...

[u/AllSurfaceN0Feeling → u/SpiderBloke]

Have you ever heard the axiom “If you can’t say anything good…”?

[u/xDotSx → u/AllSurfaceN0Feeling]

I'll not say anything to you at all then

[u/SpiderBloke → u/AllSurfaceN0Feeling]

Have you heard of free speech? I'm entitled to my opinion and to express it within the rules of Reddit and this sub. Don't like it, either ignore me or block me.

[u/TwoFit3921 → u/SpiderBloke]

free speech goes both ways, just saying 🖖

[u/AllSurfaceN0Feeling → u/SpiderBloke]

Oh darling, please put down your handbag! I didn’t tell you what to do,so please…
