    Hello everyone, since there's been a lot of "favorite ships" threads, I decided to do this all out and have a voting tournament. This will be a single elimination bracket and conveniently there are 8 classes of Starfleet vessels used by the main cast members.

    The classes included will be NX-class, Constitution, Constitution(refit), Constitution(alternate), Galaxy, Soverign, Defiant, and Intrepid.

    The tournament bracket can be found here: http://challonge.com/STShipclass

    For fairness, the brackets have been randomized. Thus we're starting out with the Sovereign vs the NX-class.

    Remember, this is just personal preference and not who you think would win in a fight or is better at any task. Just the ship you like the most, even if it's for those reasons. I'm going to keep the round 1 polls open for one day before moving on. So vote early and feel free to discuss! :)

    The NX-01's motto: " The best of the slightly adequate. At least it wasn't built by Vulcans."

    NX, for the bridge alone.

    NX, as I have a 3d mesh of the bridge to play in.

    Socerign Class, though the suggested modified NX Class with a secondary hull section looked good.

    And it looks like the Sovereign-class jumps out to an early, commanding lead.

    Went for the sovvy

    Just a better design imo and the NX was too weak for my tastes.

    It's close but I would go for the Sovereign over the NX.

    I quite like the low-tech feeling of the NX-class.






    A bonus point for the NX if Hoshi is on board.;)

    NX-class, it at least looks like they put some effort into making it look unique.

    Though neither class ranks as a personal favorite.

    Sovereign is a nice sleek design. It wins.

    Sovereign-class for sure.
    But I'm using my temporal transporter to steal T'Pol.
