And they won't know which Enterprise mine is named after unless they know stuff about WWII and the war in the Pacific. In other words, I beat you to the blog name, except mine is named after something real. =D

I figured you mean the seacraft by your blog subtitle, but I wanted to have a little fun anyway.

However, what about the original Enterprise; the HMS Enterprise, commissioned in 1705?

Thanks! Even though it's only temporary.

No, no no. The Enterprise starships started looking too techy starting with NCC 1701-B, IMO.

I like the old-fashioned look of the original and maybe even A.

Ugh! Pulse Phasers, Type II Photon Torpedoes, Type A (and B) Navigational Deflector, and Class V Shields for the fail. Not to mention Enterprise and Enterprise-A were only about 290 meters long. Very easy to destroy.

Class X Phasers, Type XVI Photon Torpedoes, Type VIII Quantum Torpedoes, Type J Navigational Deflector, and Class XX Metaphasic Shields for the win. Much more intimidating.

USS Enterprise-E for the win.

IMO.

Sure, Enterprise-E would win in a battle, but that's because E is that much newer. It'd be like pitching an 18th-century pirate ship up to a modern aircraft carrier. The wooden vessels were formidable in their own time.

Also, the bigger the ship, the bigger target to hit.

Yeah, I suppose, but I still like Enterprise-E better.

The bigger targets just have more shields and armor, but almost all the firing is done by computer, so unless you're in a small shuttle, any phaser shot or torpedo launched is gonna hit you.
