    I just came across this and think of it as pretty interesting.

    The questions I have after reviewing it are:

    What would be the best ways to connect the levels together?  I'm pondering ladders, lifts, etc.

    Would there be any odd effects of gravity as the spiral went out?  Typically I pick a distance out on my space station and set the spin rate to produce 1g there and then calculate the other deck gravities from that.

    I did a write up on this but called it an Electrostatic drive in Knight Hawk 2.0.  Hey, close but no cigar :(

    I figured I showed the size comparison for each of the vessels in the story I'm writting.

    Right Little Dragon kicks butt against the Cygnus.

    I already posted the Vahalla on this forum, when I first got on here.

    I have Little Dragon worked out in Star Froniters style as well as my own style.

    I'm going to be working on Mama Dragon during the week.

    "Me and Bubba were out there by the out rim, just cruisin' around, drinkin' a few suds when we saw the strangest thing?  There was this space ship parked down at the south pole of a star. It was bright fiery red and we thought it was those dang worms.

    Seats were at a premium when Har Jedkar of Clan Vantaria arrived for the press conference. The bottom of her cape swished down near her ankles as she surveyed the small crowd at the Oni-Senada Corporation booth.

    Portrayed in the media as the big bad wolf of mega-corporations, Streel has managed to survive and prosper in the Frontier Sector since its founding in FY 2, shortly after the end of the First Sathar War. Streel was first mentioned in the Mission to Alcazzar module and then in Knight Hawks, especially in the Warriors of the White Light adventure where it has been portrayed as being banned by the Clarion government from operating in its system for various nefarious acts.

    I've watched a lot of Wayne movies but never Stagecoach with John Wayne.

    Liking it so far. Wayne as the Ringo Kid (PC)  is being transported by stagecoach wulith a menagerie of characters ( NPCs) to face a trial. But army escort leaves them on orders and they brave Apache territory. Wife of army Captain gives birth along way and of course Apaches raid. 
    I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!
