The Abacus-class looks pretty good to me, radiation shielding opens up more star-related maneuvers we can do and a lab is never gonna not come in handy.

...or pirates.
I vote for Honesty-class Corvette. With the crew webhave, we will need guns, also has good defenses and is not slow.
Also the abacus has no weapons and a light hull, any attacker will easily kill us while we are unable to retaliate. My main vote is for Corvette, but if no one votes for that one I would accept the Magellan too, but the Honesty-class Corvette has stronger hull and more than twice the guns.

And the only one with science skill is the dog.
 Why is the dog smarter than everyone else how is a dog better captain than a pirate captain

Immortality like that would be even more game breaking than four Aaron's in one place.
You're both so obviously scum that this is a surprisingly difficult decision.

Is space police a thing and will they try to kill us if we go raid random planets/stations/trading ships? Or is there private guards instead, so if we commit a crime somwhere they wont hunt us in another sectors of the universe?
Do traders accept stolen goods?
Can the hull/shields/speed of ships be upgraded permanently, like from medium to strong in hull?
EDIT: I tought I had edited but instead I double posted sorry.

I'm thinking the corvette class or the science ship. Both would gel well with our crew, and probably piracy.

I mean, we have only 1 scientist (With only one level in the skill, so I guess just the basics of science) and 2-3 of us are better at combat so the Corvette would be way better for piracy or at least defending ourselves (And has strong hull too) while the science ship looks very weak without weapons and weak hull.
Yeah I like the Corvette.

So the votes are tied for the Honesty and the Abacus! Well, let's have the die get the final word.
1 to 3 will be the Corvette.
4 to 6 will be the Abacus.

[5] And it's the Abacus! Actually the Honesty, due to a last minute change.

Now, how shall Jim name the ship?

Once that will be done, the game will finally begin.

Oops, sorry guys, I was actually planning to change my vote to the Corvette. If it's too late to change my vote, then just ignore this post.

Oh, my fault for not telling that I would break a tie with a roll.

The ship hasn't been named, so for me, there is no problem to change the starting ship to the Honesty-class Corvette. :)

edit: I also managed to swap Magellan and Abacus names. It's not impacting the results of course.

Since Nav seems to have forgotten about this game, I'll post a character:

Spoiler: Thomas Whitney (click to show/hide)

I figure this crew might need to lawyer up.

I like it. You will be added as a last minute crewmember when the RP starts :)

edit: Oh right, I need to update your sheet with skills. Doing that right now.

Done! I just removed "I Took A Course In That", and instead increased your skills in Medicine, Mechanics and Science.

Yeah, I guess that works. He probably won't actually use those skills much since he doesn't like doing physical labor himself (which I guess I should have added to the personality, but didn't think of before posting).

It's less a matter of laziness and more him not wanting to get his hands (or suit) dirty.
