[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Dang! If not for that last piece of information, I could have made an interesting and basically undisprovable claim... Note that the Galor, the Keldon, the freighter (we need a class name!) and the Hideki all have one design feature very much in common: the pincerlike structure that's aft on most ships but forward in the freighter. [i]That[/i] could easily have been the warp drive construct that Cardassian engineers prefer. I know Sternbach suggested it was a big disruptor thingamabob copied from the Klingons, but we never saw it fire disruptor bolts... If the pincer thingie isn't a common engineering element, but more of a random design congruence, the Cardassian designs seem much less "familial". Only the Galors and Keldons have the orange glow. Only the freighter has this prominent aft (impulse?) glow. Well, perhaps the triangular-nacelled freighter seen docked to DS9 in the opening credits is another example of orange-glowing Cardassian design... Any chance of getting a cap of the "Chain of Command" diagram? Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
