On purely aesthetic grounds (ie disregarding whose ship it is) is everyone's favorite ship? My usual indecisive self has 3: Brunhild (sleek) Parcival (like a bird or manta ray) Hyperion (elegance in its functionality) On a more serious note, is there any information on the two sides' ship design doctrine? Or is this area completely open to speculation? Looking over the sizes, I can only marvel at how incredibly huge some of the Alliance flagships are and the number of cannons they carry and wonder at what the rationale behind them was.
