It still reminds me of a 1970s factory or the inside of a washing machine. Just not cool and spaceshippy.

: "Oh, a large Phantom that you can walk around in just like a Scarab? You
: designers must be so proud of yourselves."

Actually that sounds good. It's just that from outside it looks bleh and uh, more bleh.

: Did you see any machinery in there at all? Anything?

It had an inflexible? Shell and a spine. Odd that. But it was just background art and a bland play space.

I would like to see a larger version of the Scarab. 6legged, like an armoured beetle. Have you seen stag beetle heads? Their horns? Imagine something like that as a plasma weapon. Make the Scarab a mobile AA or ground based spaceship downer. Put a vehicle hanger in the lower deck with a ramp at the back and a grav lift.
When you board have Lekgolo armour flat packed as parts of the walls and Hunters emerge to repell boarders.

And I still want to see Scarabs walk off the back of an assault carrier hanger deck, give a quick burst of retro rockets and drift down to a planet below. Kind of like the opening cutscene to The Ark, only with Scarabs.
