[SIZE=11pt]SPECIAL FEATURES[/SIZE]

• [SIZE=11pt]Emergency atmospheric field[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Modular attachment points[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Advanced holoprojectors[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Crash foam[/SIZE][SIZE=11pt] dispensers[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Chair-integrated individual inertial dampeners and anti-radiation equipment[/SIZE]

[SIZE=11pt]STRENGTHS[/SIZE]

• [SIZE=11pt]Modular kit supports virtually any bridge layout. Can integrate many types of controls and consoles with minimal labour, increasing utility of recently or heavily modified ships.[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Medical-grade steristeel construction helps things stay clean and professional.[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Emergency atmospheric field prevents bridge breach casualties. [/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Each chair/workstation includes a miniature emergency inertial dampener, a basic radiation deflection badge, and a crash foam dispenser.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=11pt]WEAKNESSES[/SIZE]

• [SIZE=11pt]Compatible only with ships 25-1000 metres in length. Larger vessels need more complex bridge arrangements than the Cornerstone kit can support.[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=11pt]Look, it’s a kit for making a ship’s bridge. It’s only as good as the ship’s designer. If a ship is crammed full of every kind of unnecessary system, guess what: the control panels and areas are going to be an ungainly mess too. No way around it.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=11pt]DESCRIPTION[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]The Cornerstone Bridge Unit is a multi-configuration kit for a nice shiny starship bridge. Compatible with all sorts of generic and name-brand control packages, the Cornerstone provides unparalleled flexibility and reliability. At a more concrete level, the Cornerstone includes workstation-specific inertial dampeners, radiation protection, and crash foam dispensers, as well as an emergency atmospheric containment field. The Cornerstone kit is suitable for any ship from a light freighter to a heavy cruiser, in one-, two-, and one-point-five-level configurations. It integrates particularly well with the [/SIZE][SIZE=11pt]MVSE Chrysalis[/SIZE][SIZE=11pt] life support system, which provides elements like artificial gravity paneling and more dedicated radiation protection.
