    I have loved this ship in its past forms and I continue to love it now. You have really brought one of my favorite starmade ships into the latest generation.

    Though I can't figure out how to use the weapons. Are they in turret form or something?

    Thanks man! There aren't any hull mounted weapons on this one, it's a bit of a WIP despite all the time I've taken.

    Thank you! Wayyy too much time haha, probably more than 100 hours total, between goofing around with ideads or redoing sections over and over.

    Very smooth and well proportioned ship. I really enjoyed the transporter room and deflector control. Easy to navigate around the ship too. Any Trek fan can appreciate how awesome this ship is.

    I just tried it out and I love it. I have two complaints: The first is that I would have done the torpedoes with a damage pulse computer, though that's minor (heat seekers generate a lot of friendly fire).

    The second is that the engines use up too much power. The ship's energy drains when moving.

    I've noticed that some of the ships aspects look similar to modifications I did in the past (like the grey thingies on the ship's neck). ;)

    Thanks! Yeah I'm having trouble balancing the power issues out, space is a bit limited, but next refit I'll be focusing on that.

    I went with swarmers because this is mainly an RP ship, and the swarmers make quick work of pirates. Changing out to a damage pulse secondary should only take couple minutes :)

    And yes, I liked some of the stuff you did in your rebuild! I had to add the grey thingies, they're definitely canon and I forgot them the first time around.

    A good ship. Very decent shielding and small craft docked inside. May or may have not used it for target practice though :P

    Thanks! I'll be doing another update in the next few weeks, with shield rechargers and more interior decorations.

    This is now awesome! This update is way better then what I came up with. I really like how you left room for weapon placements.

    Amazing looking ship loving it, so far I have don some updates on its weapons to get them more focust and more in the spirit of the movie (saldy we do not have phaser canons in this :P ) is it okay ones I am done if I upload how I feel like it is perfect? (inside wise)

    Thank you! I think in the next update there will be a beam weapon similar to phasers. You are perfectly welcome to upload a personal version of my ship, just be sure to credit me!

    Brilliant work, and a beautiful ship! I admire your attention to detail and proportion. If I helped to inspire it then I'm both honored and impressed. Thank you for the kind words as well as the awesome build.

    Thank you so much! You've made me very proud!

    I have wanted an excelsior for a while now, and my wish has come true! I have been fooling around with the ship: like giving torpedo launchers, turrets, and better power systems. Unfortunately I can't seem to lock down the ship's power shortage (firing phasers is a real power drain), but that's probibly because I'm a noob with power management. With some polishing, this ship would make 5 stars hand down.

    Thank you! I'm more of an aesthetic builder at the moment, so I didn't concentrate on power and weapons too much when I put this ship together; I like to leave something for the end user. In fact I'm working on version 1.1 that will come with no weapons and much more detail inside and out.

    Mainly I don't worry about weapons and power in Starmade at the moment because the game changes so often. Working them in would be a bit of a waste, I'd just have to rip them out redo everything at the next update.

    i love the excelsior class and it looks awesome i have wanted an excelsior class ship for a long time do you think you might be able to make a nebula class star ship
    SeventhDurandal
    SeventhDurandal
    Thank you! The Nebula class is huge lol, perhaps I'll take a stab at it someday!

    Very good replica!, I like the hull details. I hope that you do more star trek! I'm working on a 1:1 Sovereign class myself!

    Thank you! I do plan on doing more in the future, especially this summer. Looking forward to seeing your Sovereign!

    Very good build, i love the Cargo/Hangar bay. Its definitely a keeper, now if only i had the motivation to do the inside...
    SeventhDurandal
    SeventhDurandal
    Thanks! In future releases I'll have more interior done, as well as some other fun stuff.

    good ship but needs more work with the interior and stats almost the entire saucer is empty and there is plenty of room for more power regen shields etc.

    Thanks, I'll be doing more on the inside in the future. I wanted to leave room for customization.
