It wouldn't go as far on a Galaxy X, but it'd still be pretty cool I imagine.

As for me, I fly the Excelsior R on my Fed engineer, I like the added punch of three consoles and a Lt Cmdr tac slot, although I break out the Galaxy R quite often as it comes under the same skill in the spec tree, it's tanking ability is impressive, although I have been strongly critical of how Galaxy class ships handle in the past, it's fun to fly seperated, but that has a four minute cool down and it goes from being a "good" cruiser to an "ok" escort. That said, I may persevere as some people seem to make it work quite well. I will probably use it more for PVE than PVP though, as I've gotten "into the groove" of my Excelsior at this point, it's just how I like it. Although the Excelsior is one of my favourite ships anyhow, so that usually swings it for me.
