Romulan D'deridex Class Warbird Showcase

This is a video showcasing the Romulan D'deridex Warbird, one of the most feared vessels of The Next Generation era. At twice the size of a Galaxy class starship, and twice its capacity to inflict considerable damage, aswell as the intimidating look, the Warbird is has taken the fear factor of Star Trek ships to new height. And when facing a Romulan Warbird, please, avoid getting in front of it. And when using he Warbird, utilize hit & run tactics with the cloaking device. Believe me, this is a ship you do not want to mess with when the commander is experienced.

Music: Dragonheart Theme
Enjoy!

The most beautiful alien ship in Star Trek, and a deadly beauty at that.

Gold D'deridex? I haven't recall seeing it anywhere ,any episode.

@ladythalia I'm not saying it's what was always done, just it wasn't unheard of. Since mnhei'sahe had less to do with honor and more to doing good by one's self and benefiting all other parties involved. If mnhei'sahe demands the spill of blood you're shamed if you don't.

[ladythalia]

@KiraZeroYamato Anyway; I think I'll leave it at that. To me, canon is canon, even when it's logically flawed. both Star Trek reference sites disagree with you. But who am I to argue, if you feel the need to think Eisn & Hobus are one and the same, go right ahead. As for the Rihannsu books; I didn't say it never happened, just not as often as you say. Their honour would not permit casual murder. Your version (to me) sounds more like Klingons killing their superiors to advance through the ranks

[KiraZeroYamato]

@ladythalia Only by the time he was senile and old, then he died and rick berman took over the franchise and raped it.

[ladythalia]

@KiraZeroYamato As much as I love The Rihannsu series, and think it is BETTER, it is not canon, Roddenberry himself made sure of that. He called the books poorly written fan fiction and took offence, therefore I tend to argue from the the point of view of the actual films and series. There is no Tricameron, and nothing in the films suggest that the seats are hereditary and that parents are assasinated by their children. Just as Ch'Havran doesn't resemble the canonical planet Remus in any way:-(

[ladythalia]

@KiraZeroYamato Don't blame me, blame the illogical scriptwriters, it makes no sense to me either, and all the fans have been bitching about the same arguments you are making right now for years. The only explanation given in the semi-canonical book The Needs of The Many is that the type 1a Hobus supernova had unexplained FTL (Faster Than Light) properties. In other words, the wave was propagating outward at multi-warp speeds, something no natural supernova should be able to do. (Memory Beta)

[KiraZeroYamato]

@ladythalia Either way a star going super nova that far from the homesun would give the Romulans centuries to evacuate the area and move to other areas. So your point doesn't make any sense. Since Romulus was the capitol only a star going super nova in that system would give them no time to evacuate, and by that I mean hundreds, thousands or hundreds of thousands of years. Their capitol was destroyed by that event in the current canon, it makes no sense if it's that far away...

[KiraZeroYamato]

@ladythalia Except that Hobus directly destroyed Romulus. Remember that the Romulans fled Vulcan 1700 years prior. They lived on Romulus. Also you must have not read the Rihannsu books very well because assassination of Political leaders was mentioned numerous times in the book for successors to take their parent's seat. Admittedly most of it is cloak and dagger, using third parties but it's mentioned. I have all 5 books on reference and a quick scan though them mentions it a lot.

[ladythalia]

@KiraZeroYamato According to Memory Beta, The Hobus star is located in the Beta Quadrant's Devron sector, 500 light-years from Romulus. Besides, a sun only goes supernova when it's dying. A dying star has lost its mass long ago and cannot support life on surrounding planets. Any civilization living on a world orbiting a dying star, will be long dead before the star goes supernova. I think this is all conclusive evidence that Eisn and Hobus are not the same stars.

[ladythalia]

@KiraZeroYamato Sorry, but that directly contradicts what is stated in on Memory Alpha & Star Trek Countdown, the official prequel to ST11. They both say that the Hobus system was an alltogether different solar system, far away, and NOT the Romulan solar system. Therefore, Romulus did not orbit the Hobus star (which was a dying star) Check Memory Alpha under "supernova". As for the assassination part; I guess that's your opinion, it's certainly not canon, or Duaneverse: Fan fiction at best...

[KiraZeroYamato]

@ladythalia Eisn(homesun) is the star that ch'Rihan(of the declared) and ch'Havran(of the travelers) orbit, aka Romulus and Remus. Both Romulus and Remus orbit Hobus. Basically the names in Rihanai and Federation English standard. Also Romulan politics are bloody, if a child feels that their parent is making bad decisions as a political leader mnhei'sahe demands action. Plus Romulan political seats are hereditary. Then again sometimes political leaders have to murder each other too.
