Fisher raised a brow.
"As i said, it is not open for debate. I have served in the Expansion Fleet much longer than you Admiral Bailey and i have never seen anyone lose by new regulations being adopted. I'm sorry if it will damage your ego. But watching CO's treat building starships as if its a matter of how much bigger can we get over the others is not something Starfleet Engineering smiles upon. As you have heard countless times, before your Greywolf Division became part, the USS Excalibur was named largest ship in the fleet. And as you have also heard, it was not ment to be undone. We did not realize so many others would create their own classes. And now at the mention of the finale people become upset. Technology is not what is being regulated Admiral, only size. And as i said before. Building a vessel larger than the Interceptor is simply not practical. It would no longer be safe, and could not be called a starship. And as CO of Engineering i must mark the limits as such."

"That is an interesting idea."
Madison walks to the bar area setting his gladd down and moving to Tucker.
"Increase security Commander, keep an eye open"
He walks back to the group.
"So, Admiral fisher, i havn't heard about the recreational facilities myself, i hope they are good." he smiled.

"The new regulation..". He shook his head slightly. "that will go through and will work out for the better, any hinderance that comes to this conference or station can talk with me, and then Mr. Fisher, Then James, Then Mr. Tucker. There will be no beating around the bush as far as it is concerned with Nova".
He then brightened up and continued thier conversation.
"It has been nice to discuss the Aztec again, and to have all of us together for the last time untill who knows when".

"That is something I myself don't even know, so I would enjoy hearing it from Admiral Fisher as well. I know most of all the intentions for the ship, I could tell you. The weapons bypass the Excalibur slightly, but the best part of the Interceptor will be its inner facilities. The research, bridge, all such things are larger. Two deflector areas, 4 warp coils worth of power to move the thing, but I don't know if anyone can rightly say how fast the ship can move".

Hobson stood looking at the large monitor on the wall, hands behind his back. He spoke to Madison, who was nearby. "Have you seen Captain Brodie? He is very important to this. A shame to, that there is no XO for the ship while the conference is going on. We will really have to work to find one, James, Mr. Brodie will be overwhelmed on such a large ship without one".

Hobson turned and looked at Fisher and Bailey.
"It might be as that, if research and development were in the minds of the so called "Competitors". I think, and I feel strongly on its accuracy, that fellow Admirals feel it a "Competition" only. There has been no clear need for further starship growth at any sector in the Delta Quadrant".
At this, his brow raised slightly.
"I can only imagine that those who put up resistance to such change, only wish to have competition, or a race as you put it. But in counter of your opinion, Mr. Bailey, it is certainly not an act off of selfishness".

"The Aztec, what a ship. Our first, you remember. I know it isn't much justice to the old Akira she was, but I think you two might be interested to know what we have in the dock here....She's back...Norway Class, but the name stays the same. U.S.S. Aztec. Of course, we won't think of sending her out untill the Excalibur, Interceptor, and Venture are all on thier way with crew...but it's coming nonetheless".

"It only would depend on the ship's size. Selfish it would seem, yes, to fellows on the outside. But it only is new sectors, like yours as you say Admiral Ransom, who desire to have the large starships, custom starships. It is of the upmost important to we, as Engineering Corps. of the Fleet, to maintain the starship of historic value. Were there not so many fellow Admirals themselves who wish to work to undermind such an objective, then there would be no issue between they, and the Fleet Engineering Corps...if that is not understood, it must be accepted either way".

Anyone interested in the project and being a part is welcome to volunteer. The more we have the sooner we can commission the ship. It will be a long process we still need to test some technologies."

"However. No argument over agreement will take place during this conference. This discussion as a debate has already gone quite far enough, we are well understood on that ground, I assume".

Hobson stood with his drink in hand, listening to the conversation.
"Yes, I have my own doubts that such technology will fail. Hopefully if it does fail, it does no damage. Perhaps our crews in joint can work on testing and developing such technology. It would only be a usefull thing in war, but we all hope that is something we do not see".

"The Titan class...I have only once seen schematics for that type of vessel, very impressive. But little more than a fat Sovereign if I remember right". He laughed at the thought. "The Interceptor's size is mostly in it's lower section, below the long saucer section. Clearly the entire thing is a simple base off of the Intrepid Class ship, double the lower section, extended, larger warp nacelles. But to scale from the image's we have provided at the Conference here, it is much much larger than the Intrepid Class".

"No doubt about that, I imagine most of the older generation of crew here might even show interest in the ship when she gets on her feet. I have tried to find John Travis, he was the internal affairs officer for some time here at Deep Space 20, but I think he was the Aztecs Ops officer, or Security officer maybe. He might know, if I could find him. I know he was on the Aztec, though. So many of the Aztec's former crew have been promoted though, You" He nodded to Dean when he said this. "Marcus, Matthew Moriarty, all of you are now Captains...Dutchman, who was the Aztecs Captain was going to be the Interceptor's XO, and was the Venture's before that, but he is no longer here for that".

Any questions of course can still be answered, but there is little left for us to cover in any sort of interview".
A small smile came across his face and he set his drink on the table.
"How about we find our way to the main Engineering Hangar for a bit of a look at how the Interceptor is coming along. And then we can get cracking on its completion. There is much work for those who remain here. Buisness as usual after that".

"Although i can empathize with your wish to restrict ships size, but i feel that is a bit selfish...such a 'race' will drive each division to research harder, explore more, it could increase our technology ten fold...perhaps the restriction should be the type of ship...your ship is supposed to be like a mobile starbase, you could restrict that type to only your division, were as if new technology is discovered, and size must be increased to accomadate the technology....then that should be allowed..."

Fisher, clearly pleased at the intertest cleared his throat.
"The Interceptor's size makes it a hard task to move and not have it rip apart in space. It was a difficult task to figure out how to make it mobile. But with 3 main warp cores and 2 back-ups it produces enough power to move a fleet of 50 Galaxy Class ships. Its not a big speed ship as the Excalibur was, its top speed is warp 8. Which is fast for something of its size. The hull will be thicker than the standard ship to withstand the speed and pressure. Warp 10 may be in our future projects to refit ships. If we do do this support is welcomed. It will be fit with standard impulse."

This could be likely if we tryed to find the way to conderact the effects that occer when the body travels pass warp 10 I think in example Admiral Janway when she commanded U.S.S Voyager she and Lt.Tom Paris traveled to Warp 10 in a suttle craft. Admiral Fisher if the posbilte of Warp 10 is liklu how will you conder the effects of such the speed on the Body?.also what will be her top rated speed.

"Ah, i am pleased you could be here captain i know you are busy with the Venture. The ship will be given good weapons but its not a battleship. Only enough to defend itself from what it may face out alone. It will have more armour than weapons. Several different layers of differernt sheilds. This is something Admiral Fisher brilliantly discovered was possible since the Constitution class. Simply double the number of generators and produce several layers. Its is mostly a science ship for exploration. It will gather data and explore space farther than normal starships could go on supply stocks."
