I built a microfig scale Borg Cube... <G>  (4 2x4 black bricks)

Actually, another cool ship to build would be the Delta Flyer from Voyager.
My biggest problem with Star Trek is there are no small one/two manned
fighters.  All of the crafts are big... ("The Federation designed them for a
large scale assault, or they would have a tighter defense.  A small
one-manned fighter should have no trouble penetrating the outer defenses..."
;)

I think any faction with many small fighters would have a tactical advantage
in the Star Trek universe.  That's one reason why I prefer Star Wars to
Trek... but I don't want to start a debate.  I like Trek, I just prefer SW.

The ST universe has fighters, they just don't focus on them in the shows. If
anyone recalls the Next Gen episode where Wesley (yeah I know, ugh) almost
gets kicked out of Starfleet Academy for doing some risky stunt in a
fighter/trainer.

Still, might be fun to see more of 'em

(...) You know, you may be right... I forgot about that episode. I also seem to remember a couple of episodes of DS9 where the Maquis use some smaller ships... I wouldn't know if smaller ships can be found elsewhere in the ST universe however, as I (...) (24 years ago, 22-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
