Is The Dreadnaught too small for it crew?

Lord Revan · Post by **Lord Revan** » 2004-09-12 03:29am

Since the Dreadnaught heavy cruiser is only about 600 long. Is it too small for its stated crew and troop capacity (16.000 men+ 3.000 troopers)? To put this to perspective the Acclamator class Transport is about 150 m longer, has greater volume due to its shape and length, has crew of 700 and troop capacity of 16.000.

Depends on the usable volume, I guess.

A modern day CVN at ~300 meters, has a crew of around 1000. So for sheer size, its possible.

A CVN has 5'000 crew I do believe.

Go forth and sin no more. Just don't be drunk next time you're posting hard numbers.

If you put troop decks into the Jahre Viking (460 meters long, 70 meters wide and I forget how deep but very deep, when fully loaded down with oil she can't enter most harbors) how many people could you get in there?

Isn't Knife a former marine? If so, M16 trumps sword. (no matter how pretty a name it has)

Rogue 9 · Post by **Rogue 9** » 2004-09-12 05:06am

Emphasis on "former."

I'm still betting on the gun user.

(hey I respawned

Rogue 9 · Post by **Rogue 9** » 2004-09-12 05:43am

Yeah, well he won't still have his M16, now will he?

Guys...wee less spam and also Rouge.

Gun trumps sword unless you're seeing Knife currently not holding said gun.

The Dreadnaught-class was originally intended to be a patrol and defensive cruiser or picket prowling the sectors of the old Republic. It may have been away from port and support for more extended periods than the Acclamator-class, a non-combatant acting from the support of whole invasion fleets.
