Doesnt look too bad, and it isnt very hard to be better than Boobyprise. I'm just starting to read the episode now, they
should get better as the poeple writing them get better.
Thier tech manuel seams well thought out, and most importantly of all self consistant!
The shields of the E-G (The varient of the Enterprise in ST:Renaissance) can withstand ~2.14GT before failure and have a recharge rate of 1.9MT/s.
It has 6 phaser banks that can:
"12,000 terawatts of power through up to three separate beams."
12,000 terawatts equates to ~2.86MT/s
25 phaser banks that can:
"capable of roughly 5,000 terawatts, and only two beams"
5,000 terawatts equates to ~1.19MT/s
q-torps:
"within nanoseconds, causing a violent explosion, with an energy release of 620,000 terajoules, over twice that of the maximum yield an old-style photon torpedo could manage"
620,000 terajoules equates to ~147.6MT
Assuming 2 nanoseconds; 3.1*10^26 Watts, 3.1 *10^14 TerraWatts.
Their take on Transphasics is:
Instead of creating a steady phase-cloak field, it rapidly oscillates its field, distorting the space around it. Any matter unfortunate to be caught in this roughly 3 kilometer-radius sphere experiences massive phase oscillations, with entire portions phasing out of existence and back in while other portions do the same thing at a different frequency. The vessel experiencing this unstable phase oscillation almost always leaks something explosive during these throes, be it antimatter, or drive plasma from a warp core.
Weapons ranges arent really commented on, beyond for saying the phasor arrays have longer range.
However the realspace velocities used just look wrong;
The E-G maxium acceleration being 7,600 km/s^2!
The slowest shuttle(The E-G carries):
"Maximum ΔV: 9,500 km/s^2 (full impulse in 7.8 seconds)"
Fastest shuttle(The E-G carries):
"Maximum ΔV: 15,000 km/s^2 (full impulse in 5 seconds)"
As latter when the tech manuel lists the max ΔV for some other starship, it lists them in m/s^2 instead of km/s^2. 1 of them is a typo, but I'm not too sure which one. If Full impulse is 1/4 c, then the km/s^-2 is the correct version, otherwise full impulse would have to be 75km/s!
And there is a Starfleet Marine Corps!
This version of Starfleet doesnt look so teethless, and I hope they dont fall for the various clasic pitfalls that startrek is prone to. But I havnt finished reading all of it yet, so I'll have to see how good it is.
