Firefly

[sovereign]

Right, I am all for removing it once the worse things are out. You're right, it doesn't look Bretonian. Then again the SW stuff doesn't look BHG. However, everyone knows SW, BSG, etc. HW stuff is absolutely hideous, as are the ST monstrosities. If you show a given import to some random person, they are far more likely to make choices based on its import-ness with those rather than the Firefly- which is decently obscure (although not totally, to be sure- there's a small but fair percentage that will recognize Serenity lore when they see it), and in passing not always immediately recognizable like a frikken Corvette. It hurts immersion less than they do because of that.

But you're right, it is an import. So if someone comes up with a neat concept to replace it with, they should do so. But if they are searching for ships to replace, there's worse stuff to scrub. Like, say, the Homeworld ships. See where I'm going with this?
