Prometheus is yet another RPG map to add to the growing RPG map section. You get to explore 5 out of 6 decks (unless I was mistaken, Deck 4 went missing!) including major areas such as the Bridge, Engineering, Mess Hall, Brig, Crew Quarters and a number of other rooms typical to a futuristic starship. There are plenty of computer panels that you can interact with to bring up forcefields, shut down the warp core, fire torpedoes.... there is a lot you can do in this map! The design is certainly much different from what's normally done (well, it is the Prometheus after all :D). Areas that I particularly liked were the Bridge, Engineering, Crew Quarters and the Deflector control area. Other areas were a bit reminiscent of Voyager (such as the Brig and Mess Hall). Some areas I never knew existed on starship, like Tertiary Engineering.
My biggest nitpick with the map was the fact that it didn't 'feel' like a starship at all. Sure it had the basics: Engineering, Bridge, etc. but the structure felt very weak. The hallways were too boxlike, there didn't appear to be any form of the ship taking place (such as the triangle shape of the Prometheus).. They map needs some stronger architecture to make it feel more solid and, well, real.
Despite that, the map is pretty good, I'd definately recommend checking out. I'm starting to enjoy these RPG maps playing with all the panels :D.
