Could they build one phyiscally big enough to even move a ds?

I'm saying, (since the DS can't use any hyperdrive whatsoever) the Feddies give the DS warp tech, and the DS crew just builds it big.

I can just imagine it....

"Captain!...something coming out of warp..."
"Well?...what is it?"
As the crewman whimpers
"I think I can just make out 'Happy Fun Ball'

Convert Such and such bay into Hydroponics, Ok, raid this system for Replicators and Food storage. Capture this much of the native population of humans. Now we convert these Barracks into Military Training academy's. I believe we have a Generation ship now.

I'm assuming you're suggesting capturing a whole shitload of women....there didnt seem to be any on the DS1....though perhaps we never saw the onboard shopping mall and recreation decks.....for off duty Storm Troopers....complete with massage parlours

repaint the DS to make it look like a giant Smiley Face....

I think Coaan already mentioned the Happy Fun Ball....

Dont mess with it

There really isnt anything the Alpha Quadrant could throw out to stop the DS.....it'll be a very happy fun ball....especially if they try the "steal people" idea.....

Infact they could cover the outside with lots of little mirrors...creating a giant disco ball and invite everyone in the Milky Way to a huge party....though we would need to find a few worlds with large oceans to turn into brewery planets.....

In this spirit. They plead with the federation and they give them warp drive because obviousley they had a superior warp drive anyway. Then the death star makes a slow march twoards earth mabye making warp 3, 4 max as feddie systems are raided and anything usefull taken. The death star shows up over earth sporting photon torpedos, phasers, shuttles and other feddie ships and weapons in addition to it's own massive store house of weapons. Every feddie ship is blown to bits and only through a peace treaty and the surrender of a lot of goods and some female prisoners does the earth live. Then as they leave they blow up fed headquaters with their turbo lasers just to make a mockery of the federation. While doing this they use their phasers (look to the earlier part of this post) to schorch YOU SUCK. On the planets side.

WTF?

Which considering the vastly superiority of Imperial tech over Fed tech amounts to "exactly squat"

The death star shows up over earth sporting photon torpedos, phasers, shuttles and other feddie ships and weapons in addition to it's own massive store house of weapons.

Considering the fact that the DS main weapon uses more energy than the Federation has produced in its entire history, why would the DS bother with Fed toys?

Phasers can't make letters big enough to be seen from space. HTLs would do a much better job.

I see you have seen what would happen under the reign of Darth Edward Woolong?

Would you give away the best warp drive technology, or the "best" of any technology or device to strangers? Probably not. You'd give them a weaker version, to preserve your "lead" if you have any at all.

Is food, raw materials, and women for reproduction "squat"? I didn't think so.

Perhaps it's to make a point of the Federation's weakness, and demoralize the Federation. One of the most demoralizing effects to an army is having its own stuff that they built themselves be used aganist them.

Exactly where would they do that for maximum visibility? The Sahara desert? Australia? China? Mid-USA? or the rainforests in South America?

All in all, an funny and interesting topic to debate.

Capship phasers could potentially be a very nice anti-fighter system. Whether or not its superior to LTLs is a matter of great debate, but as a Feddie weapons system it certainly couldn't draw much power, nor take up much space.

How about painting it like a winking smiley face, with the open eye being the superlaser dish?

Darth Yoshi · Post by **Darth Yoshi** » 2003-02-22 12:05am

The superlaser crater dish thing is too big; it'd unbalance the look of the smiley.

You could make it the giant Haro (from Gundam) of doom.

Grand Moff Yenchin · Post by **Grand Moff Yenchin** » 2003-02-22 06:08am

How about painting a big ass on the DS with the dish as the opening, then paint something like "GAS!" or "EAT THIS!" on one half of the ass as a tatoo.

Why not a slightly shocked looking smiley...with the dish as the open mouth....
