Armoured Intrepid Class

Description
Many people consider \"Endgame\" to be among the best episodes of Voyager, and possibly the best series finale (and series wrap-up) in Trek. In that episode, the intrepid (no pun intended) crew made their way home at last, with a little help from the future, the Borg, and a neurolytic pathogen. Mmmmmm, technobabble.

Part of the advanced modifications made by Admiral Janeway to Captain Janeway\'s vessel included the transphasic torpedo (already released on this site, and very nifty), but also hull armour for the Voyager. This hull armour made the difference when the Voyager cut its way through the Borg, costing Admiral Janeway her life, but thankfully not Captain Janeway nor the crew. Everyone made it home. Well, except for Neelix. He already was home.

Anyway, dan1025 has gone to considerable lengths to give us MRJOHN\'s Armoured Intrepid model, originally released for Bridge Commander. There are two .SOD files available. One (which you could use for a hero-ship Voyager) stands around 4400 poly, while the other (useful for standard Intrepid class ships, with armour) about 2400. (This, of course, begs the question of why Starfleet wouldn\'t use armour on ALL Federation starships after Voyager\'s return.... which leads to awkward questions about Nemesis.... and the Enterprise-J.... and basically everything post-VOY. And nobody wants to go there yet. Not even Paramount.... though we desperately wish they would already!!!)

This mod is fully and completely what we hope for here at A2Files. Along with the double-.SOD, there\'s high res textures, a full complement of .ODF files, build buttons and special weapon buttons, a wireframe and an Admiral\'s Log pic.


All you need to do is install the mod, and then add the weapon to your Intrepid Class. The mod uses a fusion weapon so you can deploy and retract the armour at will.

Note that the armour prevents you from having any shields. The .ODFs are balanced to make the armour fairly realistic, all things considered.

(One would think, given this limitation, that the Borg would\'ve solved their Voyager problem by simply beaming a whole platoon of drones on board and having them assimilate everyone and everything on board. But never mind. Thinking too much again.)

Anyway, this is a spectacular mod, worthy of your highest attentions, ESPECIALLY if you\'re a Voyager fan.
