At the official site, they have wallpaper available -- 2 cast shots, and our first crystal clear shot of the Serenity.

Viewing windows, battle damage, ... and solar panels? hmmm.

I wonder if the ship, itself, has any weapons. I don't see any. And we know that in the Firefly-verse, guns with actual bullets are still used, no lasers. It's set just 400 yrs in the future, so the low-tech approach is time-appropriate, refreshing, and is a money-saver.

Likes to mess with stuffs.

I wonder what the specs are for the Serenity. Those panels look pretty fragile. I wonder what its offensive and defensive capabilities are.

Finally! Wooo HOoo. Looks pretty cool from this perspective. The CGI is impressive on this pic.

So you reckon the whole thing is CGI or a model against a CGI planet?

Yup, Serenity's a civillian transport. Only time she's ever had a mounted gun was in the movie. All offensive capabilities are in the "harsh language" category (or the "Jayne leaning out of the airlock with Vera" category). Defensive capabilities are in the "Run away! Run away!" category.

I'd imagine it'd be possible to add external weapons, but it'd cost you in terms of ammo. It'd also be like hanging a big honkin' sign on your bow that says WE ARE ENGAGED IN ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES. PLEASE ARREST US.

Check out some of the old Brian Daly Han Solo Adventures books to see how much trouble the Falcon's quad guns were just by being there.

Ah, the good old days. When we were all clueless. When even Haken called her "the" Serenity.

Important people don't do field work.

And, the prize for the current, oldest ressurected thread goes to:

thank you for fixing the link, Hacken, I couldn't find it before

and I doubt if Serenity has any more defensive or offensive capability than the family car...
or a coal train...
it was build for transport, not for combat
