Do they look like they are from the Star Trek Universe? Frankly you can have them be from whatever you want them to be from. The opening could be a fighter bay, cargo port, space dust intake manafold, whatever the player wants it to be.

Wave Motion gun, gun port, viewing port, etc.

I see. It just tends to distort the continuity of the ship to have a simplistic box with a whole in it on the front. They are good ships otherwise.

Worldships are typically supposed to be more or less round, as they are mostly used for things like Death Stars, Battlemoons, and other giant spherical planet-like ships.

I can add a round ship but why must all deathstars look alike?

More nice pictures!

Maybe the hole in the front is for scooping up dropped components and cargo in Starfury...

I don't have any imagination problems with square recesses in front, or with non-round world ships.

Er, and actually, that world ship picture below looks relatively rounded to me already.
