Ah, yes, and we do need Gunnery staff. If I recall the Odysseus has at least three armaments, we never did agree to what but it seems to be two laser/plasma (I'm thinking plasma) turrets on the side of the ship near it's front face, and one on the top of the rear hull, with another possibly located on the under belly of the rear hull.

I just discovered I do having feelings by seeing this picture.

It's two childhood friends unexpectedly uniting on the opposites sides of a demonstration in 1972.

Ooo....

Well, I suppose we can have a three pilots. 1 in the front, and two the eiher side. Currently we have a limit of 2 pilots (main, and co) We are in need of navigators though, and as said we can always due the three piloting crew layout, though one is usually a navigator.

(I am oblivious as to what a co-pilot actually does)

It would make sense that the'd have a vested interest. Currently our captain is the only Auranive on board.*

Also, having said Auranive as the term for people from Auraniv; should the Umbrex continue to be called the Umbrex or Umbrexans, or Umbrexians?

Shold the Lumar be called the Lumar, or the Lumarians, or Lumriks?

Edit: *Only named Auranive on board, the only one we've been introduced to. I'm sure some 'faceless' individuals who are part of the crew are from the Federation.

I prefer people from Lumar being called the Lumar. It sounds better then the other two.

Rynagria, based on your latest IC post, I don't think our characters are going to get along, as my character is from the Lumar Empire. But then again, he may sympathize with you, as he also hates the Empire.

From the OP:

A free world located at the fringe of the habitable zone, Auraniv was once the center of a planetary union that sought to bring peace following the early colonial conflicts. This union crumbled with the onset of the Great War. Auraniv is still a center of commerce, and the old Union Assembly Hall remains open to the public. It is the oldest republic in the home system, having formed said government upon unification. Auraniv is the proposer, and founder of the Alliance. It's current president seems optimistic that the Federation will again rise to the position it held during the time of the Union, believing that despite the financial situation of the system, Auraniv, and the Auranive people have remained prosperous, and thus, will restore the Union. Auraniv does not lead the Alliance, though it would like to believe it does, the alliance is lead by an council of representatives overseen by a chairman who has been elected from among the council members. The current chairman is not Auranive, which distresses them.

We're still working on that, I'm not quite sure. I know it's been modified with armor to withstand the forces of warp travel, and for extend exploration. I personally imagine it as rather small. Like a small transport. At most I imagine it having five decks, but three decks is what I think it has, the upper decks more for managment, coms, and commanding officers quarters. The 2nd deck would be infantry, weapons, engineering. and the third would also be engineering I think, with a hefty cargo space.

We should discuss all this, but I don't even know if the weapons layout is approved by everyone.

Finally got around to creating my second character

Name: Leon Roosevelt Harris
Planet and System of Origin: Holm 3 Lumar Empire
Race: Human
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Image
Role: Fighter Pilot
Equipment and Weapons: Laser Pistol, His usual flight suit, and his privately owned fighter craft
Skills: Non-assisted piloting of small craft, Escort and Assault flight, and little known fact (Really good cook)
Personality: He is a bold man who is more than confident in his skills as a fighter pilot and his confidence is something that even harsh training under harsh conditions cannot hinder. Considering this he is also known to speak casually on the way to and from the area of operations along with hitting on some of the ladies whom he feels is appealing. Sometimes he is instantly shot down on his numerous passes at the young lady but he continues about his life as normal and as if a tiny bit more than nothing has happened.
History:
A professional crop duster on his home world and part time chef at a local resturant. His skills was noticed by the empress herself and was offered an opportunity to become part of the military with a few personal blessings bestowed by her. The catch however was that he was to pass a test of chivalry, which happened to be somewhat less known throughout the other nations and he did his best to exceed her expectations which granted him the ability to become part of the Lumarian military with a solid bonus of a personal star fighter to use for his missions.
Desired Tech Level: Future Tech
My nation's pronounciation: Key-No
National government: A imperialist constitutional monarchy with a matriarch as a ruler and an assembly to advise her will
Anti-realist in RPs

I'm no engineer, so I'm o.k. with anything that makes sense. Just don't give our ship something like a Black Hole Canon or a Zero Point Cell power core and I'll be fine.

Thus far we only have three Plasma Turrets.

Based on recent apps... and past talk, and the fact that we do have pilots, and the ship really only needs one pilot, we... may need a place for 'scout craft'.... I, don't know. But if we do, we'd have to have a limit of three, this is a recon ship, not a battle cruiser.

Perhaps there would be more room in the engineering/cargo bay?

The ship is 4 kilometer long, 2 kilometer wide, and 1 kilometer tall. The ship is also capable of housing 3,000 personnel, with 1,000 rooms.

Something like that.

The place where all the equipment is stored could be big enough to hold 'scout craft' and still be able to store the equipment needed for repairs or maintenance.

3000 wooo,

eh, yeah, um we really need to talk about this. As a group, everyone, as i imagined the crew being no larger then 800 (84 was the number I had in mind, but 800 seems plausible from compromise, I mean, the ship was small in my mind).
