Description:

The Valdore Command Warbirds are the Romulan's fleet command vessels. The Romulans learned during the Dominion War that their D'deridex Warbirds were ill-suited for leading their forces into battle. The larger D'deridex's were ungainly and easily inundated by smaller Jem'Hadar attack craft.

The Valdore Command Warbird takes advantage of the speed of the Norexan Warbird hull. A larger, more efficient warp core was installed to provide the ship with the power necessary to operate a full compliment of disruption bolts, including an additional two heavy disruption bolts.

Design Notes:

This ship is based off of notes by Charles "Danesti" Haught during a discussion on the armament of the Valdore-type warbirds seen in Nemesis. I decided that his recommendation on the armament was indeed sound, but rather than change the base hull I decided to adopt it as a rare command variant, which puts it in the same class as the command ships of other races, such as the Sovereign or Negh'Var.
