I’d like to add another “Well done” to the list for Bryan Gibson’s artwork, looking forward to seeing more of it in T20.
Not that big a departure from the “old” arrowhead designs And as far as that old “attic”, while interesting, did anyone else notice that it had to have had an overall height of less than 0.5m, especially near the bow sensor position, and the same goes for the “3 tons” of forward cargo hold volume. That said the old Type S was probably the most volume accurate deck plan published. Have a look here for another players take on closer to accurate displacement deckplans for some classic ships...

As for ScoutCadet469
See the above link. Also I have a couple old home brew designs, with “not quite ready for prime-time” deckplans. A TL-12 Aslan design, and a Manta Class variant, mission built for submersible operations. If there’s interest maybe I’ll have to find time to dust them off and polish them up (though last time I tried to put them and some other stuff on the web, my hard drive crashed just before I was ready, and all my files went to byte-heaven, I know, backup, backup, backup... I was too creative to be bothered).
I also recall a very nice published variant with deckplans, probably from DGP’s magazine, but I’ve lost them, maybe someone else remembers it. I think it was a conical hull.
I gotta agree with him, the artwork gave me the same feeling, could be the clean black and white, technical line drawing look.
Hey Hunter, Takei mentions an iso view, can we see that too? Thanks.
