[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] As for the [i]Oberth[/i] kerfluffle... I honestly don't know what to think of Rick's design vis a vis the ship from "The Naked Now" or "The Pegasus". TNG had some weird notions about ships' complements. The [i]Tsiolkovsky[/i] had 87 people aboard, which seems light for an [i]Ambassador[/i]-esque design. Similarly, I remember the [i]Pegasus[/i] was a smallish ship with a smallish crew for testing the Federation's phasing cloak. But then we also have the [i]Lantree[/i] with its crew of 26 in a roughly [i]Constitution[/i]-sized spaceframe, or the [i]Arcos[/i] with its crew of 2. ...Contrasted against the [i]Enterprise[/i]-D with over a thousand people aboard. Even stripping away families and rotating mission specialists... *shrug* Nor do I think [i]all[/i] instances of the [i]Grissom[/i] miniture being reused should be replaced. The [i]Vico[/i], for instance, makes sense as a surplussed older Surveyor (contemporary Starfleet livery ignored). Maybe the [i]Cochrane[/i], too, as they're going to need Surveyors in the newly-opened Bajor Sector. As for difficulty, or doing it right...? I think [URL=http://fanedit.org/wpTF/?p=495]this[/URL] is only a few tweaks away from being the Star Wars I've always wanted. The original was great, but as soon as George started messing with it again in the '90s, each of his "special editions" have diminished as much as they've added to it. This guy spent over two years working on this and, speaking as an aspiring filmmaker myself, this is almost what I think Star Wars should be once George opened the gates by modifying the original. --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
