A random comment by KF got this going... he mentioned that he liked to use the Okinawa that I'd worked on for a Terran Empire ship.. and that got me thinking. What would *my* idea of how a Terran Empire ship look like?
I started thinking about it, based on the idea of the Big E in "Mirror Mirror".. and the only major differences that were visible were mainly markings. No major differences in nacelles, no major structural changes. So I thought, well.. let's do the marking changes, and see where it goes.
I did the marking changes.. and then I thought about the Terran Empire mentallity. So I made a couple of changes to make it visibly difference from the original Okinawa. I turned the observation deck into a crew torturarium for mass "crew correction" excercises. And then I thought that some feature needed to be there that would be cost efficient, in line with Feddie-style tech, and maybe used in conjunction with agonizer booths. So I added a "spacing booth" above the torturarium.
This is a booth that has a forcefield on the space side, and when the crewman/prisoner comes in, the person running the booth can flick the field on and off, vary the field strength, bring the field in and out.. almost anything. Anyone put in there could be pushed for info, brought into line, whatever. Nasty. :)
And here was the final product..

And note the crewman in the booth.. That's Ensign Expendable. :) Only two others know what crime he's committed, and that's Nanner and KF. Let's just say he's someone that everyone hates. :)
Another fun project.. (grin)

That is so wicked cool!!! I've always loved the Mirror Universe, and this class. Awesome work man! ;D

Looks very interesting. The good thing about the bad "Feds" is you can tamper around with more sinister ideas that a normal Starfleet ship wouldn't use.

By any chance, are there any other Terran Empire ships out there, specifically for SFC3? I've been dying like you wouldn't believe for Mirror Universe ships, and I can't find any out there.

I appreciate the comments guys... I hadnt thought of releasing this one because this was a special ship for KF kind of as a "thank you " for his service to our community here..
However, I've been thinking about the idea of maybe doing one for general release. I've liked the Mirror Universe.. it's just figuring out how to do one. I'll think on it and then maybe present an idea to you. :)
