Star Trek: Armada III begins with the first stirrings of the Dominion War and allows players to take command of five unique factions, the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Cardassian Union/Dominion Alliance, and the Borg Collective. Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before.
The USS Excelsior NX-2000 was developed and constructed throughout the 2280s as 'The Great Experiment' - serving as a test-bed for a number of experimental Federation technologies, most notably the Federation's first serious attempt to develop a functioning Transwarp Drive.
Although the incredulity of more traditional Starfleet engineers proved well-founded regarding the feasibility of transwarp, the Excelsior herself proved to be an exceptionally capable craft, and was officially commissioned as the NCC-2000 in the early 2290s. Since then, the Excelsior-class has served with distinction as one of Starfleet's most successful starships, taking on front-line duties alongside newer, more advanced designs. Only now, more than 80 years since her initial launch, is the Excelsior-class starting to show her age.
My favorite ship! You do her justice!
DAT SIDE AFT
Can't wait to put my hands on those nacelles.
Hmmm.....
I put my head up on your nacelles and you dip dip dip
Shows her age...then gets a massive refit that shows you can always teach an old dog new tricks.
