Correct me if I'm mistaken, but isn't the DS2 1600 klicks wide?

The strength of the Enterprise isn't counted by the power of her phasers or her shields or her torpedoes... these things are immaterial, a mere tally and comparison of firepower misses the point. Which is the heart and soul and will of the crew. Where there's a will Kirk and Spock'd find a way, probably without even taking the weapons on-line or firing a shot.

That's hilarious.

"A mere tally and comparison of firepower misses the point". Just priceless. So if you put Kirk and Spock into a 17th century wooden ship of the line, they'd be able to take down an Iowa-class battleship? You just have to laugh at people like this.

You're mistaken.

DS1 is 160 Km in diameter.
DS2 is 800-900 Km in diameter.

Of corse then we'd have to kill everyone on bord because the imperials would never let them servive, if they escaped the explosion (assuming they would be stupid enouph to let the Ent that close in the first place) Even that wouldn't distroy it though, only disable it, and only if they hit it the right way.

are you on drugs, son?

even if the ent-nil detonated it would only be in the magnitude of a couple hundred megatons. far less than even a single heavy turbolaser bolt.

Is the Death Star I really 160 km? It was called a small moon in ANH, so it can't be THAT small.

Hey, Phobos and Deimos are small moons, and they're less than five miles across.

Kirk's shirt gets ripped and than connie gets uber drives of doom and than gets to point blank of the DS while landing the away crew. After shooting the stormies to death, they face Vader and Palpy where after ten minutes of ripped shirt KIRK-FU they are thrown down a endless pit and than they place the uber bomb of doom in the DS core and by goes the DS as connie transport them out at the last moment.

Hard numbers can never beat DEUX EX MACHINA. What do you think this is? Real life?

460m long? How do you make a crewed starship (flagship class no less) almost fit inside a sports stadium??

JodoForce · Post by **JodoForce** » 2003-04-25 02:23am

Not that I'm disputing the measurement of course, this is only the first claimed measurement of the GCS that I ever saw...

Simple Due to a quantum space flux along subspce frequencies a three dimensional image is recordeed by the Enterprise from 100 years ibn the future.Spock remodulates the base quantum signal emmitter causing the images to appear on the Death stars shields and on the monitors inside of it. The crew runs around screaming as they see Janeway reaching the "clouds and the rain"

Oh, and it's a real fight, so Kirk can't die. He has to die in some funky, pansy way, like stubbing his toe while fighting in another dimension...

The weapons are immaterial, it's the soul what counts. WHAT THE FUCK?!?!
Sounds like a variation on the Good Guys Always Win tactic.

Yes, whatever, but even if the soul was more important than assets, this is literally saying that weapons are immaterial while soul is material...
