Description
------------
Construction began------> December 2006
Construction complete---> April 2008

There are two vessels in this mod. The USS Enterprise D, and the USS Venture. Both ships are canon to television. A third is in
development. It is my interpretation of a refit Galaxy Class ship circa 2395, and has many characteristics that keep it in line
with the style of my Enterprise F.

Both the Enterprise and the Venture have fully functional saucer seperation modes. Both ships are equiped with powerful, overlapping
phaser arrays, and are capable of firing torpedo spreads of up to 10 torpedoes at a time.

The beginnings of this mod are humble in origin. In fact, it was never intended to be for BC. I have always benchmarked my modeling
skills by building Galaxy Class starships. This is the sixth time in as many years that I've attempted it. The mesh for this mod
originally began as a high polygon cgi mesh, that I was going to use for renders, etc. However, I had always been unsatisfied with
the accuracy and quality of Galaxy Class ships for BC. The SNS version was, and is, an amazing piece of work. It though, was intended
as a replica of the ship seen in Star Trek: Generations--an intention that Scotchy did a great job of following through on. In my opinion
though, the ship was not true to the one we saw on the television show, particularly from seasons 3-7.

When this project officially became a mod for BC, the intention was to as closely as possible recreate the 4ft version of the Enterprise
built for seasons 3-7. Now that it is finished, it certainly leans that way, however, due to a lack of reference materials and blueprints
for the 4ft model, the ships in this mod are essentially a melding of the best qualities of both the 6ft model, and the 4ft.

This Galaxy Class will also be featured in the fan-made game, Star Trek:Excalibur, which is currently in development.

Tactics
--------
For both ships, try to get off a full spread of torpedoes as quickly as possible. The torps will track well in a group when fired
from a distance, and typically inflict massive damage on most opponents.

When strafing an enemy with the Venture, try to keep your dorsal side facing the enemy. The Venture's additional nacelle phaser arrays
allow her to pulverize anything above the ship. Try to finished off the strafing run with a quick spread of aft torpedoes.

For either ship, launch a full spread of forward torpedoes as soon as the battle begins. Then warp just behind the enemy and launch a full
spread of aft torpedoes. Both sets of torpedoes should impact upon the target at nearly the same time, usually inlficting irrepairable
damage.

For either ship, do not forget that you can seperate the ship and take control of either the saucer or the drive section. When seperated,
both parts of the ship will gain a slight increase in maneuverability. This will greatly enhance survivability against small, powerful ships
like Birds of Prey, Jem Hadar Attack Ships, and Defiant Class ships, if such an event should occur.

The Galaxy Class can take a beating, and usually give better than it gets. If you lose your shields but are pounding an enemy, keep at
them.

Be careful not to take too many hits to the forward torpedo launchers. They are vulnerable to attacks from in front and below. They may
damage easily if they suffer a direct hit. This is particularly important on the Enterprise, as it lacks the additional punch of the
Venture's nacelle phasers.

Neither ship is sluggish at the controls, but you will feel their size. Combat is best done at half or two-thirds impulse.

Both ships' main saucer phaser arrays include overlapping emitters. From almost any aspect they have visible to them, you can land
multiple beams on an opponent for rapid enemy shield collapse. Use the phasers in short bursts to minimize recharge time and maximize
accuracy and damage.

Troubleshooting
----------------
If you encounter significant performance issues when using this ship, do the following:

COPY THE .tga FILES IN THE 'MEDIUM' Folder TO THE 'HIGH' FOLDER

This will change the primary textures to 1024x1024 instead of 2048x2048, meaning that your graphics card will only have to process
20mb of texture data instead of 80mb. This will be very important for those of you running 128mb or 64 mb graphics cards out there.
Please don't contact me regarding performance issues with the ship. I am aware that it won't be very smooth on older rigs, especially
if you're running multiple Galaxy Class ships. Some other suggestions I have if you have performance problems would be to
reduce AA and AF levels. That will help a lot.


I've spent the better part of seven months developing this mod in my free time. My children have forgotten who I am because of it. ;)
Please, if you don't like it, don't publicly bash it. If you do like it, please say so. Good and constructive comments are the
lifeblood of mod development.
