Do you people realize that this is exactly what they did on Spacebattles, when they came up with the first story debate?

"OH YEAH? I have a billion billion ships the size of the whole galaxy that can each blow up the universe in one shot!"

"Is that so? Well, I have a billion trillion ships of that type!"

We realized that. We even stated at the start of this thread that we were making fun of the Trekkies/SB.com jockeys that keep coming up with these Federation uber-ships that the Federation "would" be able to build in minutes if they detected an Imperial threat, and how they build these starships without any evidence that they exist, or that the technology to do so exists.

BTW, I think multiple uber-seismic charge launchers are in order. These should have the power to annihilate entire star-clusters, yet fit comfortably in the palm of one's hand. I think that they should also be self-replicating, cloaked, and impossible to destroy with any weapons. Maybe we can load them up with some quantum-molecular armor, or something?

I can see it now....

::Tarkin moves in with DS 1 over Alderaan::

Tarkin: Alderaan, lower your defenses or prepare to face the consequences!

Bail Organa: Never! Our sheild will hold up to whatever you can dish out!

Tarkin: Fine then, your funeral.

::Reveals that the DS 1 has been refitted with a massive subwolfer in place of the superlaser. The crater thingy now looks like a stereo, and Alderaan is blasted by endless tracks of John Tesh, N'SYNC, Backstreet Boys and even Carrie Fisher is singing too, and it's the song from the Christmas Special, to give that personal touch:)::

Bail Organa: WE SURRENDER! WE SURRENDER!

Hell I think that'll beat my Dyson Sphere of Death and its entire compliment of Veritech fighters any day:P

fuzzy dice? check
racing stripe? check
ridiculous armament of doom? check
what this bitch needs is some sort of animal mascot. I am personally leaning towards either the Quasar dragon from one of the old Dragon magazines, God from The Authority, Species 8472, or Bun-Bun from Sluggy Freelance.

Wait, I just realised that making one of them be a mascot 24-7 constitutes cruelty to animals, so we will just have to use all of them, in rotating shifts with paid vacations.
The only other thing this monstrosity needs is a name, I personally suggest that we name it "Love And Peace," just to confuse the press.

Don't forget to put 7 of 9 in charge of engineering. Borg can adapt to anything after one hit, so you might lose a few plates, then you'll be invincible against the weapon until the universe reaches the end of its life span.

Which is why after hundreds of hits by the same three weapons types, the Borg could still be destroyed in First Contact. Wait, that doesn’t work..

No, 7 of 9 is chief Morale and Cleavage Officer. Instead of Borg technology, we find a way to channel Ranma Saotome's ability to adapt to his opponents into the shields.
