[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] Any franchise, any universe. What's your favorite spacecraft command area design ever? Bridge, command deck, tower, whatever. What makes the most used set of any given SF series or movie COOL for you? And by the same token, what's the WORST design you've ever known? And why? *** For me, one of my favorites was the design of the Lar Caillum class battleship from the Gundam movie "Char's Counterattack". It was actually two bridges at once - the everyday bridge was a semicircle of consoles facing outwards onto a panoramic window view forward, with large displays built into the ceiling and walls above the windows. The CO sat on an elevated chair allowing him access to both the windows and displays, and behind him was a large situation display. THEN, during actual combat the CO chair would descend into a combat bridge chamber below the main bridge. It was more protected, had large displays for everyone plus a holographic sphere in the middle, and the CO, helm, weapons and communications stations were all bunched shoulder to shoulder in the very small room for ideal communication between them and the ship.
