The vertical warbird has been kicked around as a concept since the TNG days - I'm a little suprised we haven't gotten one before now.

Concept art from Star Trek: The Next Generation, featuring a Romulan warbird with the nacelles arranged above and below the "head" of the warbird, rather than on either side.

I like the vertical style warbird.

But the Intel specialty is a complete waste of bits.

It seems especially weird when the universal console and experimental weapon are temporal in nature (granted, Temporal is the ship's secondary specialization).

Though if any faction benefits from the Intel spec, it's the Romulans and their battle cloak.

I have the legendary Romulan BoP, and it's Intel spec is profoundly useless. Maybe I just don't know how to use it? The DD is the Miracle Worker spec, which is way better.

Nah, you're probably right - I don't really pay attention to the meta because I don't care, but Intel has always been a bit of a black sheep.
