I’m gonna nitpick here a little: Why is it that, with DVDs and sites like TrekCore with billions of screenshots from episodes & movies, comics and paperback cover artists continue to redraw over and over the most popular studio headshots of characters? They always look incredibly goofy whenever the artist either attempts to alter the facial expression (as in Purcell’s above Picard pic where he raises an eyebrow and opens the mouth) or paste the head onto a body in motion.

C’mon people. Put in a DVD and press pause. Enough of these ‘reinterpretations’ of studio shots. Even the second “Destiny” novel features yet another easily recognizable studio shot of Picard.

End of nitpicking.

She’s a predator.

Will be interesting to see, who built those Scimitars. If it’s one of the two Romulan states, one will have gained a significant advantage. The Remans are a Klingon protectorate, so they might have built them. I doubt the Klingons would have been to happy about it, or the Federation for that matter.
In light of this picture, I am not sure the comics will have anything to do with the prime universe timeline laid out in the books.

That’s the novels. The new movie isn’t being constrained by what’s in print. Just like all of the old movies and TV shows.

Maybe someone should shed some light on Romulans politics and the Remans plight according to the TNG/Titan Post-Nemesis novels.

As far as I remember, after Schinzon’s fall the Remans start a rebellion and were granted protection (or was it asylum) by the Klingon Empire. Thus, having them create a fleet of military ships seem plausible.

23 – The Scimitar is too complex, powerful and cutting edge, and too different from Romulan Warbirds to be pieced together from Romulan parts.

It’s design implies greater capabilities. Why else would Shinzon need the support of the Romulan Military? He wanted resources to build more that one ship.

Besides, if the Remans managed to fight off the romulans from Remus, they needed more than the Scimitar to pull this off.

It is likelt that the other ships were not seen because they were kept hidden.
