Mine are

World Devastator

Nice original idea for a ship that literaly grows.

Vengeance battecruiser

I like the the thin angled design.

TIE Defender

Nice to see a shielded and powerful TIE that can take on X-Wings.
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.

I like the idea of the Star Defender. It's basically a Star Battlecruiser, but has a PC name. I think that it's important to verisimilitude to have a society that doesn't just name everything in neat, easy categories. I may not like the PC reason, but it does characterise the NR, and that's VERY important for a writer.

Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser. I like the comparative simplicity of the design.
If the games count, the Dauntless cruiser. I really dig the look of that thing.

was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...

Mon Remonda(sp?) or Mon Mothma.

Although not an actual ship i loved the Pulsar Station idea from Isards Revenge. A mini Deathstar Cap Ship Killer. Amazing idea.

Nitpick: that ship is no mere Star Battlecruiser, it is a full-fledged Star Battleship :D

I really am partial to the K-Wing and the Republic Star Destroyer.

No it's not, it's a full-fledged Star DEFENDER! ;)

Seriously, may I ask what the difference is? And also, what details does the Star Defender have? Ship size, crew, number of TLs, fighter complement, troop complement, etc?

I like the K-wing. I haven't heard of the Republic SD? Where's that from? And again, details, please... part of the fun of these sorts of threads is you can go into the specs of your faves. :D

You like the K-wing? It's an uber-rip of Wing Commander's Broadsword. Plus it looks awful, IMO.

Screw the NR's PC leadership. It's a Star Battleship :D

The Viscount is over twice the size of the Mediator -- described as a battlecruiser. All other details are unknown.

Republic essentially is a 1250m-long Star Destroyer with firepower in between the ISD1 and ISD2 yet half the cost of the ISD2. As with most NRDF designs her endurance is relatively low but IMHO she's a fine design. However, she's probably expensive.

Best all time EU craft, IMO is the YT 2000. Awesome design. :D

I dig the TIE Avenger for the Imperials.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
