Talk:Wells class

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

It appears that there are several (5-12) disruptors and one main subatomic disruptor located at the nose of the ship.

Who is to say that these are disruptors, not some other weapon, or different system all together? Jaz talk | novels 22:08, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Is this article necessary? -- Excelsior 09:45, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Yes, why wouldn't it be? Jaz talk | novels 20:51, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Temporal Disruptors

This article says that the ship is armedwith 3 temporal disruptors. The problem is, these are not beam weapons like phasers or disruptors, but rather small, yet powerful bombs. Don't believe me? Then look at the Memory Alpha article on temporal disruptors. I am therefore removing them from this article. --OuroborosCobra 05:58, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Subatomic disruptors

This article makes the assumption that the Wells class is armed with subatomic disruptors. This was never stated in the episode. It seems to be based on the fact the the Aeon had subatomic disruptors, but I don't think it makes sense to assume what all of starfleet is armed with based on one ship. Imagine if the only 24th century ship we had ever seen was the Defiant. Imagine if we then assumed that ALL starfleet ships were armed with pulse phaser cannons. We'd be quite wrong ;-)

Here is how the article originally reads:

It appears that there are several (5-12) disruptors and one main subatomic disruptor located at the nose of the ship.

Here is how I am changing it:

It appears that there are several (5-12) weapons mounts and one large mount located in the nose of the ship. It is possible that these are subatomic disruptors, as with the Aeon-type, but this is never stated in the episode.

I am also removing subatomic disruptor from the sidebar, and replacing it with "unknown". --OuroborosCobra 22:55, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Additional weapons info

The Relativity appears in the "New Frontiers" graphic novel "Double Time", and some mention is given of it's weapons capacity. While not canon, shouldn't this information at least be in an "Apocrypha" entry?Capt Christopher Donovan 01:30, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Sure. Not having read that book, I don't know what to add. Can you do it Captain Donovan? --OuroborosCobra talk 01:59, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

I would if I could find my copy...I'll have to dig around and see if I can scare it up...Capt Christopher Donovan

[edit] Temporal transporter

Shouldn't this article (and/or the USS Relativity article) mention the Temporal transporter? -- 71.113.180.189 03:26, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Added Temporal transporter section, but I think the Holomatrix and TCARS need to be mentioned. -- Reignfire 00:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
