All of the options are good, but there's something nifty about a ship as a character.
Imperial * Herald * Small * Gossip * Medialite
Status 3.0 * Glory 4.8 * Exceptionally Honorable
Generally has a little bit of cash, good clothes, wakizashi, densai, communicator; holodrone probably following along

I think I would like it as one big ship with smaller ships to go to (clan embassies in space? :lol: ). Being samurai in space even more sounds interesting!

I love the concept of ships as characters-locations! I like stories surrounding having to upkeep and make a ship survive, as it takes care of it's crew in turn.

I feel like this is something that has been missing from the campaign so far. There are a number of space focused mechanics we haven't been able to play with.

I think there are some neat core roles for life on a ship or fleet of ships - pilots, medics, engineers, diplomats, etc.

Honor: What is Expected • Glory: 3.0 • Status: 1.0

She is often followed by a trio of drones crafted to look precisely like three different songbirds native to Golden Mirror.

Aha, admittedly, this vibe came to mind! Firefly mining ships are independent but incapable of interstellar travel, typically dropped off by a carrier and picked up later. I imagine they would segment into a sort of 'swarm' when they get to their destination. The challenge would be to give each ship its own identity while streamlining them to workable 'rooms'. Like, I'm sure every ship will have its own mess-hall, tea room, quarters and dojo. This doesn't need to be replicated across the board, as locations work better when they have differentiating themes or purposes.

I like the idea of being a garden ship, a recreational ship, a habitat ship, a gunship and the like.

There's not an option for 'those all sound fine'. So I'm not clicky voting and just noting it here.

As someone who has wanted, even given thought to, a game where the primary location is mobile and you have some changing secondaries either ship idea appeals.

I prefer the big main ship simply because you can flesh it more and it makes more sense to me than a constant stream of shuttles running between smaller ships.
