Is there a schematic of the galor around anywhere with all the details like sensors and warpengines and all that labled?
-
Here you have Starforce- I had these on one of my CD Archives :)
Please help the guy which has made a post regarding Zorgs Hideki :)

NOOOO don't take any notice of those schematics - they are from the Star Trek Factfiles, which to be blunt was rather lacking on facts...
The war necelles are the 'wings' - the yellow glows are the associated plasma etc so instead of necelles they are housed in the main body of the craft - something akin to Defiant and Klink BoP's.
Sensors - thats tricky - theres nothing really to go on but personally I would go with the areas where there are recesses with darker lumpy areas in - such as the 'trench' around the saucer/stardrive of the Enterprise D as redone for Generations, and the sensor pallets on Voyager. The Galor seems to have a few of these dotted about in areas that would make sense for such a set up.
Weapon points are obvious - not just the 2 main arrays but also small cuboid-pyramid extrusions dotted about the spaceframe (Cardies appear to have powerful main arrays and lower power arrays for defence - unlike Federation where weapons power is more evenly distributed - defensive philosophy versus offensive if you like).
Don't get me wrong I love the Fact Files, but they really cocked up in regards to the ships in many cases (poor information, mishapen schematics of ships etc). Just go with what makes sense - would be more reliable than those schematics I'd say!

yea that clearly has impulse engines labled as warp drives. Ofcourse I think the BC game has the area of vents just ahead of the tail section labled as the nacelle which is just as bad. I'm thinking that might be were the reactor is, since a keldon which got hit in that area was crippled all together.
-
It would probably make more sense having the reactor within that superstructure behind the 'head' of the ship central to the warp 'blades' and within some more protection also. Supposedly also it was designed with a separating head - thats why theres odd looking impluse units on the back of it (best seen in the CGI version).
-
OK..that was an idea darkthunder suggested, although I believe his idea was for it to be in the belly of the ship.
-
Yeah maybe but if that big corrorgated looking thing on the front is a door then it might cause problems!
-
unless it's an antimatter ejection hatch.

unless it's an antimatter ejection hatch.
:rofl: picks self off floor, I would think that would be on the bottom or aft not the bow where you
could fly into the ejected core.
-
I believe the warp engines are mislabeled and those are the impulse engines. The glow areas on the wings are a more likely warp engine candidate. The Corrigated areas fore and aft are I believe shuttle doors.
-
Yea obviously they are meant to be hatches! ::) - the front ones I'd wager for cargo/access to heavy machinery internally - side for shuttle craft. I think this because many times in Trek we have seen vessels laucnhing shuttle craft whilst at a low impulse velocity or in standard orbit - something I would not like to try from a fore shuttle bay! Although having said this craft launched from any recess not immediately facing aft would worry me due to complicated issues involving physics and shipboard/shuttle-board innertial dampening systems. Think about it!... lol.
To echo Dr McCoy - A best guess is what is needed with unspecified systems on the Galor!
