Part of the point of this thread was to explore ways to change the "classic look" of the
Dreadnaught. It was really spurred on by comments made in a PSW thread where the general consensus was that the class looked too much like a "flying hot dog".
The other thing to consider is that the Dreadnaught i supposed to have it's bridge up front at the top of it's 'bow' which is off from most Imperial designs which have a bridge at the stern.
Indeed, which may be further justification for adding a module towards the back. It seems to be a hallmark of other Republic and Imperial warship designs.

Close, but not quite. It would look somewhat different, perhaps without the outriggers. The
Venator and
Imperator class bridge towers look totally different, after all.

Perhaps, though with some work I don't see why such an addition would be inherently bad. Again, the idea of this thread was to investigate ways of improving the "flying hot dog".
