Oh and for the Flame throwers on the bridge that show damage. It comes down to as much as we bitch about Star Wars and their engineers lack of care about safety. Who puts high pressure gas lines in the bridge of the ship. Its equivalent to putting the fuel tanks around the ammo bins on a Russian T-72 tank.


One thing that I would really like to see because I'm a navy buff, and Galactica hinted at it, is a separate CIC from the bridge. It would give it more of a submarine feel and you could do a lot by separating the XO and Captain who in the navy are not in the same place together during combat.
What do they even need high-pressure Gas lines for? Its the same as having the giant beams and girders over the bridge just so they can fall down.

Starship design has some serious flaws and the clowns over at Utopia Planitia should see some heads roll!

And build in some goddamned surge protectors!
