Wow. I'm so stoked that somebody else said that!

Steamrunner for sure, it was nice to see a Fed vessel that was different.

I prefer to think of them as lumbering beasts. They certainly have some teeth.

Exactly how I pictured it as well. In mass encounters the visual effects tend to be kinda limited and sluggish (compare the Ent-D firing all its weapons in Best of Both Worlds, as opposed to almost any other ship's firing rate during the Dominion War in large battle scenes) but what I picture with the Warbirds is, even if they were careening out of control in flames, there'd still be green weapons blasting off the thing as it started to break apart.

I'd have to agree...When i described Lethargic slug I was quoting a book that calls the Oberth class a lethargic slug.

It actually even kinda LOOKS like a slug. From any angle I've been able to see it, even.

How dare you! I happen to find the Oberth strangely aesthetically pleasing....

I have not yet found appropriate cause to use this on the forums but...

LOL.

I've never been a fan - it looks too top-heavy to me.

Dont worry. I can find the most beautiful ships ugly and the most boring things glorious.

I like the Constellation for instance.

All-time, the refit-Constitution.

For TNG, the Galaxy-class.

My FAVOURITE starship design? For no reason whatsoever - the Nova Class. I thought it was cool looking, interestingly designed for its purpose, and idk, I just loved!

Ok, here we go... one of my favorite starship designs of all time is...
the Yeager class

Just kidding, actually, when I was typing my favorites, I forgot to mention the Oberth and Constellation and many others. I like variety.
As for other races:
Klingon: Negh'var
Romulan: D'Deridex
Ferengi: none (they look funny and are orange)
Cardasian:

I don't have a favorite
Dominion: the little attack ships
Xindi: Aquatics

That's about it, oh and the bioship too.
