I wanted to convey a recently touched upon topic. Most starship combat would take place at distances that your target/attacker would not even be visible.

Thanx for looking.

Long range weapons, now THIS I like.

COOL! Yeah, the distance thing is one of my pet peeves. While Wrath of Khan was great popcorn fare, it did cement a bad precedent for Trek's ship to ship combat. You've done an excellent job here - on many levels!

I am honored!

Very cool scene, well done.
Not seeing your enemy is the tip of the iceberg there. If light energy weapons are involved, strikes would be near instantaneous. A warship design might be better as a sphere with projectile launchers and light energy weapons bristling on it like a sea urchin. No need to bank, or dive. No atmosphere.

Well in the Star Trek universe the torpedoes are ftl. The are basically a warp drive unit tipped with an antimatter warhead. Which is why at the beginning of TNG phasers were never used at warp. Not very effective and possibly fatal if you are flying faster than the weapon you are lobbing out the ship!
