This is in some way a fantasy game, so some known Star Trek rules may not apply. And don't take it too serious, it should be fun. I don't think it really belongs to the Gaming Forum though (Just in case feel free to move the thread).
Imagine you just completed the starfleet academy successfully and now you can chose on which ship or space station you serve at. Time doesn't matter, so you can jump on any ship/space station you want to. You have no idea about the upcoming adventures. For example you don't know that DS9 will be involved in a war against the Dominion or the Voyager will strand in the Delta Quadarant. But you have informations about the ships/space stations and the leading officers. It's up to you wheter to consider your favored scope...scientist, engineer, medic, pilot, weapon systems officer, diplomat counsel, barkeeper or what ever. The qestion is, where would you like to serve at?
So I choose DS9 for the following reasons.
Commander Sisko seems to be a very competent head and manager who knows how to deal with people. And I trust him.
I don't really like flying so I may get space-sick like Ezri Dax when I am on a ship all the time.
I see myself mainly as an explorer who want's to discover new worlds and species. So the plurality of species on DS9 is fascinating for me and I hope to overcome my space-sickness to join some flights to explore new planets...but it's good to know there is a home base you can always return to.
Last but not least, I'm having a crush on Major Kira
This said, my decision was not so easy.
The NCC-1701-D under Captain Picard seems to offer much comfort, a luxury steamer in space.
Also the NCC-1701 impressed me and it's captain Kirk, the way he passed this test with the conviction that there is no No-Win Scenaraio, no matter what happens. Plus the first officer Spock is obvioulsly a genius.
Captain Pike seems to have all qualities a captain needs, too.
Anyway, now it's your turn if you are up to it, tell me...where would you like to serve at and why? Every ship and space station that appeared in any Star Trek series or movie counts.

And Star Trek, obviously. Watching it, not living it. There's also no hair on my head that would think about joining my countries' navy, for example, though I greatly respect the job they do.
