I love the fact that, as far as I know, SB80's design is something we haven't seen before. Which for being the one no one wants to be posted to makes even more sense IMO.

Huh. I always thought the "Watchtower" design was created for the Vanguard novels. TIL.

The Vanguard novels didn't come out in the '80s.

That's what I was saying. The Watchtower design isn't from the 80's. It's not a FASA design.
