So I have tried to establish a deck layout for the new Enterprise. Please tell me what you think, as it is NOT complete yet:

Independence class deck layout:

Deck 1: Main Bridge, observation lounge 1, Captain's ready room
2. Captain's private dining room,
3. Life support
4. Crew quarters, life support, primary sickbay upper level,
5. Crew quarters, life support, observation lounge 2, cargo bay 1, transporter room 1, primary sickbay lower level,
6. Crew quarters, life support, cargo bay 2, Captain's quarters,
7. Gymnasium 1, transporter room 2, primary mess hall upper level,
8. Transporter room 3, transporter room 4, secondary sickbay, primary mess hall lower level,
9. Primary classroom, shuttlebay,
10. Leading edge of the saucer section, Sphinx drone hangar/maintenance bay upper level, transporter room 5, fore and aft shuttlebay,
11. Leading edge of the saucer section, Sphinx drone hangar/maintenance bay lower level, transporter room 6, fore and aft shuttlebay, Impulse engine systems,
12. Aft shuttlebay,
13. Crew quarters, aft shuttlebay,
14. Aft shuttlebay, forward torpedo bays 1 - 3 upper level,
15. Forward torpedo bays 1 -3 lower level,
16.
17.
18.
19. Long range sensor maintenance rooms, main engineering upper level, aft torpedo bays 1 and 2 upper level,
20. Short range sensor maintenance rooms, main engineering lower level, aft torpedo bays 1 and 2 lower level,
21.
22.
23.
24.
25.
26.
27. Antimatter/benamite crystal storage pods (for the quantum slipstream drive and warp engine supply)

There can be more than one ging on a deck. You hav torpedo tubes on some decks and nothing else. Every deck would have a bit of everything.

Erm... what's an Independence-class?

So is this some random ship you made up?

16. Bowling alley, swimming pool.
17. YMCA, McDonalds franchise, Monkey breeding pens.
18. Big field where the crew can stage re-enactments of the Battle of Gettysburg because Holodecks just aren't the same.
21. Ship's Zoo. Museum of extraordinary pantaloons and other unusual or impressive legwear.
22. Entirely filled with gay bars and nightclubs - the most fabulous deck on the ship.
23. Captain's personal golf course. SIckbay's leech breeding facilities. 1/10th scale models of the Seven Wonders of the World.
24. Ship's Ice Rink. Reproduction of Disney's 'Pirates of the Carribean' ride. Ship's sperm bank. Redshirt breeding center.
25. Robot university campus. Spider training facilities. First Officer's personal stuffed hedgehog collection.
26. Turkish baths. Scale models of previous Starships built entirely out of matchsticks. Asylum for the Criminally Insane. Redshirt burial grounds.

a) If it were a Kirk-run ship, 1/4 of a deck would be entirely too small for the Redshirt cemetary.

b) If it were a Kirk-run ship, 1/4 of a deck would be entirely too small for the sperm bank.

c) Honestly, spiders are notorious for being resistant to any sort of attempt to instill training. It's all "more bugs, more bugs
with them.

Nobody said that each section was of equal size!

Hence the need for an extensive training facility! Rogue spider escapes would always be a possibility, though.

Don't forget about the mythic deck 29 with a deep meaningless, useless deep abyss the looks to be five decks deep.

It's a new type of ship my friend and I made up.

Yes

Yes

We had this conversation before. You can't just put numbers or words to a ship you made up when it heavily relies on the shape of the ship itself.

This could easily be a ship the shape of a cube, a pyramid, a dido and so forth.

Warp core could easily be in the 24th deck or the 5th deck.

Yes we have, but that was a while back. I can't even remember.

Besides, we DO have a shape of the vessel. Yes it is not truly original, but it seemed by far the best choice.

Mikey/Graham/Whoever can scold me for Necro-ing this post, but I just read this thread for the first time and I am fucking dying! I'm at work laughing like an idiot in my empty office. Comedy fucking gold!

Turkish baths on the bottom deck...

I'm sorry I missed a year of this crap!

Please, give me more!

Naughty poster! Naughty! No soup for you!

What deck is the three-ring circus on? And seriously, no horse-racing track? The disk-shaped upper hull would be perfect for the Enterprise Downs. By the way, is the Japanese tea garden on the same deck as the gay bars or is it part of the zoo?
