Nor it's Egypt, yet we have those names all around. And don't get me started on all sorts of ships and concepts that were literally stolen from TV shows and movies. This one didn't have to be made that way.

A pyramid is somewhat a bad idea. I'm not flaming, because it is a good concept, but I dont believe one that can be applied to this situation. The Order is loosely tied to Ancient Egyption culture. A pyramidal station would not be functional as a battle station. It would look good, but thats not the point. It is supposed to be a battlestation. battlestation pyramid.... ehh, no good in my opinion.
I'm still brainstorming and hope to find some time this weekend to get started on some drafts.

Not really like a pyramid station, I assume kinda like west point or some liberty bases - but with pyramids on them - not a pyramid base... Kinda like a sattelite dish - an extra feature to a base.

I suggest that whatever shape it is, it should have many docking points and many defense "towers" because of constant nomad attacks and threat (in RP). I think some spider-ish shape would be great. With central building/command and around like spider legs with defense turrets on it:D

How 'bout a Sphinx based concept?
lion's body and human head inspired BS?
All right, I'll quit now. I just hoped I could inspire artist for something entirely new and unusual. This from a Order secondary fleet member point of view.

I made a rough sketch of what I envisioned when I heard that.

Refering back to Stargate, something with a "bridge" concept leaning forward, with "arms" pointed forward, sort of the Daedalus-Class ships.

Some motivational ideas that i collected over the net. Some are just drawings, some are from games and movies (like the Sulaco from Aliens)
