I could see myself playing out either the preparations, the trip, or the arrival. I don't think I'd do all three in the same game, and if I did two, one would be downplayed.

Preparation games appeal to me: there is a LOT to plan, and STL trips are big enough for extensive political wrangling.

in transit games feel small, cozy, and isolated to me. If I ran one, It would focus on a challenge or disaster the crew has to overcome.

And my love of new settlement games is well documented, but I don't think that I'd spend much time in transit or in preparation for such a game.

Of course, I generally like shorter and more contained games, as opposed to sprawling multi-year campaigns.
