William A. Barton reviewed Klingon D-7 Battlecruiser Deck Plans in Space Gamer No. 70. [1] Barton commented that "With the recent release of the Klingons supplement for ST:RPG and of a basic set minus the deck plans, the 15mm Klingon D-7 Battlecruiser Deck Plans prove to be a better value for ST players and GMs than they are even in their own ...
As Jefferies wanted the D7-class to appear "threatening, even vicious", the design was modeled on a manta ray in both basic shape and color. The spread-wing primary hull, long neck and bulbous command module configuration of the D7-class became the basic blueprint for Klingon vessels in the later television series.

Using a metaphasic scan, Seven of Nine calculates the position of the ship, allowing Tuvok to fire on it and disable their cloaking device. The captain of the Klingon ship, Kohlar, refers to the Federation as "sworn enemies of the Empire."
