If you had a Firefly or Millenium Falcon-sized space ship, what would you want on it?
I'm figuring you would need a cockpit, engine room, crew dorms, galley, head, and cargo deck.
Nice amenities would be a machine shop, player piano, hydroponics for fruits and vegetables, mess hall, infirmatory, and kennel.
Any other ideas?

I would only want one thing. Cosmic Cube.

Above all else? Smuggling compartments with EVA suits in 'em. Hiding stuff/people onboard and patching the hull are two things you always end up needing to do.
Need a shuttle for excursions, need your "surprise I'm actually armed" one-shot weapon, probably an expensive nuke mine. Decoys are a good idea.
And finally, an expensive cache of "the good stuff" for after a successful mission or right before a suicide mission.

Engines, power system and shields from the Ship in Stargate Universe.
Replicators, transporters and holo systems from Voyager (including at least one engineer, a holo designer and a doctor).
Medical bay with bio-technology/cybernetics equal to the Edinists in the Night's Dawn trilogy.
Basic living quarters, cockpit, and maintenance facilities.

No one yet has mentioned GreenSkinned slave girls for shame.
I have holo projectors. One of my requested holograms is a hologram designer. I get the girls as a by-product.
I also get the maintenance team, bridge crew and anything else I need in terms of personel.
Note, I'm asking for holo-projecteors, not a holo-deck. I'm thinking more in line with the USS Prometheus.

A little red button hidden deep within the ship...that crew nor designers have any clue as too it's function.
Extradimensional space. The ship should be bigger on the inside than the outside.
An extra bulkhead layer - Darn decompressions.
Spare fire extinguishers, seen too many ships venting into space because of fire and really that's not for me.

crew quarters
captain's cabin
galley/mess
life support, incl air/water/waste recyclers
engineering/drive
fire control center/gunnery (probably not in this size ship, but maybe if it's heavily armed)
cargo hold
secret cargo hold
bridge
communications/scanners
med bay/infirmary
machine shop
science lab (could be combined with machine shop, med bay, engineering, or communications, depending on the science)
gravity generators!
heads (bathrooms on a ship)
weapons and shields
probably not a shuttle bay since a small ship can land already
possibly a skiff (like a shuttle, but smaller, doubles as escape craft)
stealth system!

Another way of asking the question would be, what's your favorite feature on a fictional starship?
The Consul's yacht in Hyperion had an antique Steinway grand. Like a boss.
This is exactly what I'm looking for. This is an inspiration thread for a d20 Firefly campaign. I was already going to include an old-timey player piano.
And maybe a jacuzi.
And a hovercraft that can carry more than 4 people.
:-P

Someone's gotta drive the ship while I'm talking to Amy.
...yes, talking...

So you plan on talking to Amy but kissing the wookie?
