The succes of the designs of the Akira and Ronin class with lower costs in production were the start of a new design of
a heavy battleship. Starfleet wanted a new battleship, because the costs of the enormous Dreadnought class were the main
problem. So the Nimrod class was created from a fusion between the Akira and Dreadnought. The power, needed for this design,
was generated by a double core and this made it possible to add an extra pair of nacelles.
As allways, thanks to Wrath of Achilles for his Texture Tutorial and Major A Payne for his SodTutorial.
I added 2 extra hardpoints, so if anyone want to add a special weapon, for example, there is a way. See image 4 for the location.
