Legendary Resistance - The Enterprise was famous for getting its way out of problems more than perhaps
any other vessel in Starfleet (don't argue, it IS the most well known vessel and captain, no matter which
series you love most) and as such repairs damage on the roll of 5+ instead of on a 6.
USS Enterprise NCC 1701-D, Captain Jean-Luc Picard
Actually the sixth vessel in Starfleet to bare the name Enterprise, this ship was commanded by the
French Captain Picard, on a deepspace exploration mission some decades after Kirk's. A vessel
made famous by making first contact with various species, it was also one of the most influential
vessels in the defeat of the first Borg attack. The Enterprise - D was destroyed by a Bird-of-Prey
when awaiting the same Nexus that killed Captain Kirk years before.

Transwarp Drives - Whenever the Excelsior wants to go to the Special Order "All Ahead Full",
she doesn't need to pass a Ld test in order to do so, but whenever she suffers the critical result
"Engine room damaged", she also starts to be on fire as per the critical result effect.
USS Voyager NCC 74656, Captain Kathryn Janeway

faster speed and manouvring, she was send to the Badlands to hunt down a Maquis party. However,
there she was swept away by an entity known as the Caretaker, and was stranded in the Delta Quadrant,
75 000 LY from Federation Space. Here they undertook a 7 year voyage home, during which they

Special Rules:
Escape Pods
Borg Sensors (+15 Points) - All targets count as Closing on the firing table.
Ablative Armour (+50 Points) - This 30 years from the future technology allows the Voyager to have a
5+ save against any hit it suffers, from EVERY type of weapon.
Trans Phase Torpedoes (+40 Points/Salvo) - Up to 3 salvos of these potent torpedoes can be bought. These
are state of the art and exist both in realspace and subspace at the same time, constantly fluxing
in and out of existance. A hit from a Trans Phase Torpedo immediately causes a critical hit also,
no roll needed. In addition, a Trans Phase Torpedo always hits on a 4+, like a lance does, no matter
what the vessels armour might be.
USS Defiant NX 74205, Captain Benjamin Sisko
The Defiant was an experimental vessel that replaced all comfort with place for wargear. It is the first
class of Federation ship build with only war as a sole purpose in mind, and especially war against the
Borg. With the start of the Dominion threat however, Defiant was restationed at DS9, and although she
was destroyed in the conflict, her sister ship Sao Paolo was renamed Defiant in honour of her performances.
The vessel was build with the co-operation of the Romulans, resulting in the fact that she was equipped with
a Cloaking Device.
