Well, I mean, oars looks strange with starship. If not Roman, then which one? Greek?

Is the Scorpius a Generation Ship? It almost looks like a flying city...

The ancient Egyptians used monoremes as long ago as 1600BC, but the true masters of these ships were the Phoenicians who upgraded to biremes (two decks of rowers).

the whole oars thing was covered in my write-up for the ship. doesn't seem like many people read them, lol.
still, the good thing is that the Scorp's an OXP so if you don't like her, don't load her.

Killer Wolf: I've expressed my own point of view only and every can have other point of view. I've hadn't said, I don't like Scorpius, I've said only what I've saw, without reading anything. it doesn't matter, or is based on your write-up or not. It's only my opinion about this, what I've saw on pictures. Personally, I'm impressed about your whole work, not only Scorpius, but all Isis Interstellar is really a great idea. On Orbiter forum I've saw a clipper as a spaceship,. With full sails! It looks really great, but for me also anachronic.
But I can uderstand, more people are very creative and or I like these oars or not, - it doesn't matter. More important is, you had idea and you have fullfilled it. Keep up good work
