First does anybody know were bridge is located on Rendeli Dreadnaught, second does anybody know what does a Geonosian Dreadnaught or Medstar look like.

I think the bridge is pointed out on the old EGVV diagram.

No idea the Medstar.

No idea about a Geonosian dreadnaught. I originally figured it was a rendelli type just built at the geonosis shipyards, but the ROTS novel describes is brigde pod as spherical, and then has it fit in a sinkhole ~900 meters wide/deep. The point was brought up that this may just be a detachable pod similar to that on TF battleships. Right now the assumption between me and those I've discussed it with is that this is the case, and it is a real star dreadnaught. No doubt WOTC will release something saying this is not the case.

Speaking of which, we need to revive our military/tech discussions.

I'm currently cooking up a spreadsheet of estimates and notes setting a range and the limits of various ships.

I cracked a major problem in my turbolaser analysis and in how we count the guns on ships.

I've revised my estimates on the trip to Bespin which now allows for something with the same energy density as AM to work, meshing nicely with the ROTS ICS.

I'm trying to figure out how much energy to do the damage to a planet mentioned on the Invisible Hand page so we can estimate the mass of the Quaestor class star battlecruiser.

That about covers it for me.

Which helps absolutly shit, since I don't have the book nor am I in a position to be able to get copy.

Try this. The bridge is buried in the pod on the tower face.

otherwise great but it's the wrong ship (I was asking about Dreadnaught heavy cruiser's bridge position, you gave me the bridge position of a VSD)

According to this, it's buried in the forward section of the ship.

thanks, that leaves only the Medstar and the Geo Dreadnaught.

As far as I know, the EGVV doesn't have stats for those ships. Here's the site the scan is from, if you're interested in looking at any other designs.
