What's your favoriate planet killer/destroyer?

Post by Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi »

My favoriate has to be the Star. It's big, and probably one of the most powerful weapons in sci-fi. What's yours?

Are we talking about firepower or coolness? As far as coolness goes, I give it to the VPK. I know it can't actually destroy a planet, but it's pretty cool. I like the design. It'll do massive damage in style. And those little reverse-tailfins just make the ship.

In terms of power/size it is almost unquestionably the little PKer from MIBII. Crappy movie, cool ship.

For sheer wickedness and coolness factor, not to mention uniquness factor, I'd have to say none other than the only fully sentient planet killer I know of...none other than Unicron!

I mean, not your average planet killer can transform into a planet-sized robot :D

The one from Spaceballs is pretty funny. Does that one count as a PKer?

Berzerkers

simple too the point, and bad enough to take on anything short of the whole Galactic Empire.

I'm rather partial to my own concept, even if I do say so myself. It's a bitflipper that can remotely convert arbitrary portions of a mass into antimatter. When used against large objects (such as planets or stars) the effects make the DS superlaser look like a firecracker. For instance, the detonation resulting from the conversion of half a sun-likestar into antimatter would release more energy than a typical supernova and fry any unshielded civilizations within a range of approximatly 3000ly.

It's not my place in life to make people happy. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to watch me slaughter cows you hold sacred. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to have your basic assumptions challenged. If you want bunnies in light, talk to someone else.

How about Omnipitus from the Tick cartoon? :D
