I used the Resurrection for parts, so the polycount is already beyond what the game can handle.  I could do polychopping I suppose.  I'm estimating this thing is going to be roughly in the neighborhood of 18k.

As for textures, I'm contemplating on trying to map this one myself.

my excelsior is 16k. It's not outrageous for the game (unless you are running multiplayer, or are facing a fleet of em)

My main concern is how to map the warp engines and engineering hull.  I've got a basic idea of how to map the engineering hull, but the warp engines, those scare me.  Saucer and bridge, not so much.

I've seen LN style engines mapped in a number of ways.  Just that I've seen the finished product, and since I have very little experience in UV Unwrap mapping, well, you get the idea.

Ok, this is going to be a hell of a lot tougher than I thought,  The seem doesn't want to agree with me, and I can't get it to go directly along the centerline of the hull.

Apparently a lot of spam has been coming out of my hotmail account, so they disabled it... but I need a cell phone to re-verify my account, which I don't have... (*&@#$ MSN

I don't think you do, as personal information should not be necessary for that account. Sounds more like a redirecting scam that is looking for a Cel number to txt spam and link to.
Just open another account

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

I assume that's why you've not been on messenger lately? I'd sign up for gmail, personally..no spam..also, I don't think you actually need a hotmail account for msn any more.
