Beyond Warhammer and Stargate, which fictional ship or setting would the participants choose to command?
Short answerChoices include Starship's Mage, Empire of Bones, the Fifth Imperium, Andromeda, WALL-E, and Star Trek, with reasons ranging from personal abilities and comfort to automation and small crews.
NotesThe follow-up broadens the choice beyond Stargate and Warhammer. A Mage King destroyer or cruiser from Starship's Mage appeals because the captain would probably also be a mage; an Empire of Bones Marine Raider ship offers useful personal augmentations. Other preferences include the Daedalus from the Fifth Imperium series and Andromeda Ascendant, whose artificial intelligence and small human crew are part of its attraction. Axiom from WALL-E is proposed for its automation and comfortable life aboard, while another answer favours Star Trek. These are personal command preferences with different assumptions about crew size and living conditions, rather than a common ranking of combat effectiveness.
