Hello Andrew.  Firstly, the Eastern Block is not evil.  We desire peace and
prosperity as much as the other great states of Space - however, we also strive
to promote the interests of the proletariat against the bourgeois oppressors.
So, in a sense, we are more good than PCS.

Building a ship similiar to the Kalashnikov would be an excellent endeavor,
IMHO.

Unfortunately, nearly every ship of mine only has the 3Bs as you put it: Bridge,
bunk and bathroom.  However, when designing a ship - consider that these men
will be living inside of it for months on hand.  They would need everything you
would need in your daily living: Kitchen, living room, play room, bathroom,
bedroom, and workroom.  Workrooms can be for anything that fits the purpose of
your ship.

The HMS Beagle http://news.lugnet.com/space/?n=29338 is an excellent place to go
for ideas on what to include on a ship.

I'd also peruse Dan Jassim's fine SHIPS
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=DanJassim for general ideas.

I'm a big fan of large SHIP projects, so I can't wait to see what you come up
with!!

(...) I am sorry if I made it sound as if the Eastern Block is evil. I really meant 3vil and other factions like that. Everybody has differant views and i guess that entitles that the Eastern Block may rule as it wants to. (22 years ago, 14-Jul-04, to lugnet.space)
