Right now it's still a WIP model, I'm gonna try to make it more detailed (new textures, higher poly count...). I just wanted to get input on the design, like it? hate it?

I'm also gonna move all four nacelles forward to give it a more stubby look.

I like it the way it is now

Yeah, I think it looks worthy of more attention.....

Looks cool but the name sucks bad. Really bad.

Y'know, I always thought a std Reliant with the Roll-bar and warp engines swapping places would look cool...

Meh, I was just following the physical model of a designer, I figured that I may as well keep the name as well

Yea pay no attention to me - Im just down on the anything French right now. Its actually a pretty good name bro, good work

Nicely done, perhaps the registry should read "USS Yamamoto NX *****"; this would have made a much better stock BB!

We really could use another USS Belisarius

Qa Pla!

I think that I agree with you on moving the engines forward a bit. Maybe move the nacelle
pylons forward on the hull to where it starts to narrow. It looks like it would compliment the
lines of the secondary hull there.

I like it. It has some nice design features.

Anybody speak French? What does the name mean?

It means Lionheart or, in a more academic translation, Heart of Lion.

Good job! I forgot where I first saw this beastie, but I like it.

i would like this version as well

Indeed, it's a great historical irony that "Richard the Lionheart" one of the better known "english" kings (to us in the US) was directly decended of French blood and likely spoke hardly a word of english...

Darktide · « **Reply #17 on:** March 14, 2003, 07:40:38 pm »

Its not irony at all, the English and the French share many historical origins. I mean, we were conquered by the Normans!! Richard wasnt french, he was born in Oxford, his father was Henry II. His mother was Eleanor of Aquitane and he spent most of his youth at her court Poitiers. During his ten year reign he fought alongside the french in the third crusade and upon his return crushed a coup his brother John and Phillip II of france had plotted. It was for his prowess and courage in battle that the french nicknamed him 'Coeur de Lion', (heart of the lion). And there ends todays history lesson.

quel tracey, ne parlez-vous pas français très bien ou dites-vous Richard que le didnt de lionheart parlent probablement français très bien?
