Starfleet Ship Tier List

Happy April Fool's Day. In reality I love all Starfleet ships equally. Except for the USS Equinox. That's a garbage ship for garbage people.

NCC-1707D got my goat ngl
Defiant class lives in my heart.
- "Tough little ship."
Oberth class is pretty ugly too.

And how do you even get to engineering? Transporter?
- Water slide.
- That's not engineering down there, it's the science lab/a big fuck off sensor pod. Engineering is like the room behind the main bridge on the Oberth.
  
  The warp core is immediately behind the bridge?
  
  That sounds like a terrible design.
Runabout too elite for such things as lists
- Crashabout
I much prefer the original Constitution class. I also really love the Miranda Class.

Edit: Also, you are correct on the Nova class.

I can't say I'm in love with the NX-01 either.
- I do love many of the post-TOS ships with their streamlined graceful curves, starting with when I first saw the 1701 refit on the big screen, but I grew up with TOS ships including the Star Fleet Battles and original technical manual, so I really love the old style scouts and tugs. I was overjoyed to get a brief glimpse at the Kelvin on screen.
Starbase 80 is not as bad as everyone says. They got the cable working again. Sorry, it's still down, my mistake.
Except for the USS Equinox. That's a garbage ship for garbage people.

That's a pretty sick name for a Malon ship. 🤔
- Or for a Malon band.
Tfw no Defiant
- Yeah, honestly the Defiant Class is fucking sexy as hell. I also have a strong love of the NX-01's austere, utilitarian form.
  
  I mean it's a badass ship, but Enterprise D went through all kinds of absurd shit and always came out on the other side.
  
  Except when they needed shock value for a movie...
Constitution Class refit gang, where we at?
- Peak design for sure. That and the Miranda have something special going for them.
  
  I also do like me some Ambassador class though.
NX-01 is great, but I’m Team Crossfield (pre-refit).

Oh, and Sovereign.

You’re right, there’s so many good ones!
Give me a Sovereign class or give me death
But if you leave out the stargazer then Picard is sad...
SSS - Cerritos
I don't get it, what are "S" and "F" tiers?
- It’s poking fun at tier lists for game characters. A tier list is just a list of things given a letter grade where F is the worst grade and S is the top grade above A.
  
  Thanks for the information but..
  
  S is the top grade above A
  
  why is S above A?
Give me Intrepid or give me death.
NX-1701
