My turn to be persnickity...
I didn't see any rule that a module had to be grey... What if I want to be
fashionable and decorate mine in Teal and aqua-marine? I think that would be
swell... All kidding aside I don't think we should feel locked into grey.
There could be an area that was more "residential" before the big bad bounty
hunters took over.
I also like the idea of raised sections. We could do something like the GMLTC
module "honeycomb" which would save on bricks while allowing for a carbon
freeze chamber to be built into the floor.
Time to experiment a little...
