Ok here is the first of three planed worksheets on this ship. The sheets will take her up to service in the 2260's. I am making an assumption that this ship would fall in between the Anton class and the Constitution class of ships in terms of exploration and range. Keeping in with the picture of the ship, she has also been optimized as a combat ship...better armed then the Anton, but lesser armed to the Constitution. I am going to put this thing through some tests later to see how she would handle around the opening years of the Four Years War. The Pioneer Mk.I variant shown here on the worksheet would have been put into service around 2244. take a look at the worksheet and tell me what you think of my thoughts on this ship.... View AttachmentI put my Pioneer MK.I to the test in a few FYW fights. She actually holds up well under the battle conditions she would have faced. She is truly an equal to the D-4E. They nearly match up in CE, and that makes for a balanced fight. She also can stand against a D-7A, but she has to use a lot of power in the shields and work up to range on the D-7, while it is peppering he Pioneer with Desrpter fire, but when they get within range, the fight changes when the Star Fleet ship can bring those FAC-3 tubes to bare on the target. They can in the right circumstances deliver a total of 24 points to the target...that usually devastates a D-7. She does run into bad trouble against a D-10. She is a decent ship that is for sure, I would take her into battle Test file for Jason's computer version of the sim View Attachmenthas anyone else test played this version yet |

I'm a fan of the Wilkerson-Class destroyers, Remora-class escorts, and Kiev-class frigates on aesthetics alone.

I always liked the look of the Derf. It's not an impressive ship, combatively speaking, but Ive always liked its lines.

It does a job that most would consider not so glamorous, but it also has great potential for refits during wartime. The ship has enough potential to be refit as a heavy escort or a destroyer without having to change anything on her power grid. This ship is a very good type. |

Love the Orion Wanderer class, but I think you all knew that!  After that, love the Kiev class, which stats wise is like a more maneuverable Reliant class with better weapon arcs! Yes it is a great ship, I have had luck with Kiev many times |
