Located on Deck 14, Main Engineering is the thriving heart of any vessel in space. It has access to almost all systems aboard the starship, and manages repairs, power flow, and general maintenance.

It supplies all systems with power and monitors everything that has a blinking light through the system displays.  If something goes wrong, an Engineer will have noticed.  It is arguably the most important area of the ship though not the most remembered.

There are numerous ladders and access panels to Jefferies tubes, leading throughout the starship .  The Ronin has a decent compliment of special access routes into Engineering to take into account. This is perhaps one of the reasons why Engineers never seem to leave the drive room.
There are numerous ladders and access panels to Jefferies tubes, leading throughout the starship - the Sovereign Class being the first series of starship to take full advantage of these access spaces for more than extraordinary maintenance.  The technical complexity of the starship dictates the use of these spaces to maintain peak efficiency and affect proper repairs.

In the center of Main Engineering is the Matter/Anti-Matter Assembly (M/ARA). This is where primary power for the ship is generated inside the Matter/Anti-Matter Reaction Chamber (M/ARC). This system is checked on a regular basis due to its importance to the ship. Access to the warp core is restricted, with a front port to get to the Dilithium matrix as well as an over side port for access to the warp plasma conduits.




A second tier rings the second level of Main Engineering on deck 13. Two small single-person elevators, as well as a ladder on the opposite end, provide access to this catwalkControls for the various Fusion Power Plants, along with the Impulse Engines, are monitored from this deck.

=== Warp System ==
The Ronin’s engines are the same M/ARA system that works on each of the Federation’s vessels.   Apart from the standard Warp Propulsion systems, the Ronin is in essence a war ship and is equipped as such to last out in near impossible conditions.  As such, the warp drive of the Ronin can survive on ‘fumes’ for a short time while the crew are able to evacuateHowever, full details on the systems are provided in the [[Academy_Library#Engineering|Academy Engineering Systems]] section.

=== Experimental Technology ==
Although the section isn’t exactly what it says on the tin, some of the Engineers on the Ronin have at some point been involved in technology research at Utopia Planitia.  Using the resources and multiple opinions available to them, the Engineers on board are able to carry on research into a wide variety of deep space systems, including advancements in the LCARS system and an experimental EEH (Emergency Engineering Hologram).


Continued research into these systems has not had a direct benefit on the Ronin as of yet.  No advancements have been made as much of the research hasn’t left the library.  However, they’re forever hopeful.


A lower tier runs below Main Engineering on deck 15.  Damage Control Teams are mustered here, as well as internal ship maintenance teams.  Numerous consoles and replicators line this section, serving as auxiliary consoles for Main Engineering, along with providing engineering research space and secondary computer core support.

Typical crew compliment in Main Engineering consists of twenty engineers and forty technicians of various grades. During Red or Yellow Alert, that number is increased.  Perhaps a single fact about the Ronin is the senior ‘team’ they have, unlike other departments.  Due to Engineering being such a vast department, it seemed necessary to have subsection departmental heads, working effectively.  It hasn’t failed yet.


Access to the Jeffries Tubes is provided in various places on both the First, Second and Third Tier of the Engineering Spaces.
