The fact that Bill Carson still remains an apparently reviled Commander deserving of mutiny and disrespect for this long is amusing whether you like it or not.

I'm stuck between Bill Carson or Heinz Muller. They both always bring something unique out of a mundane round for better or for worse. Plus they are also hilarious to watch while I moderate.

I like Arthur Montgomery, his Falklands war LARP really brightens some slog rounds. He's also great to roleplay with. I also love Balto. . not for competency reasons, but because his accent always makes me chuckle. "Tis be yer Commander speaking. . . . . ", yeah, I adore him.

I'm clearly the best CO around. I don't even have to play as Commander to prove it.

It's hard task to choose the best one... there is a lot of good Commanders, like... Heinz Muller, Bill Carson, William Crimson, Finnian Cottier, Arthur Montgomery, Reno Story, Balto Drieg, Reginald Dempsey, Vanechka Penkina...

Man, just too much.

Fucking heinz all the way. Great RP Good discipline good win/loss rate, good RP, doesn't tolerate shitters and loudmouths.

Carson is....Carson. he's "fun" to have around but not s0 much as an MP Because he inevitably loses his shit and orders half the damn ships compliment arrested.

Finnian Cottier is my favorite. RPs well and isn't unduly harsh.

Personally, I’m a pretty big fan of Weenie as a CO. I can’t remember whether or not I’ve ever gotten to serve as part of his staff, but I always appreciate the humorous Woe Is Me attitude he throws on if the marines are losing, and I appreciate that he tries to add some story to the maps such as when we were seeking out a crashed vessel on LV.

Another nice Commander I’ve gotten to work with a couple of times in the CIC is Christine Kennel. She’s a good CO and is mechanically minded which is quite useful for tactical decisions. Beyond that, I appreciate that she doesn’t abandon the CIC every twenty minutes like some COs and leave us poor Lieutenants to make up orders ourselves.

Probably... Finnian Cottier, Weenie, Darius Ico.

I feel like too many COs forget that the round is not about them and their job is not to be an antagonist with whitelist protection all the marines want to knife 30 minutes in. The CO should never be the single most hated person on the ship, especially when the CL is still alive.
