Hey, I am new here, I do not know much of SW or ST or sci-fi. Though I do frequently go into StarCraft forums, do some race making and enjoy reading some sci-fi stuff. Even though I only watched some SW movies and read only 1 EU novel I do enjoy reading this forum. The debates here are very entertaining and I wish to brush up in my debating and knowledge of sci-fi and StarWars. Anyway, please forgive me if I do act like some idiot who doesn't know jack shit about StarWars or StarTrek or other crap because I actually do not know jack shit about SW or ST or whatever.

Please be nice to me and don't be rough, I am just a n00b.

Oh, and I discovered this site from a dude in BlizzForums (that site wherein you 0wned some guys saying a single Terran Battle Cruiser's Yamato cannon could destroy the Death Star).

Oh and BTW, which is stronger a Death Star or a Sun Crusher? I know what a DS is but what is a SC? I heard that it started supernovas, what else can it do?

hmmmmm

well since the sun crusher is small and nimble the Death star would have a hard time hitting it but if the death star captian was stupid and the sun crusher pilot fired one the the torps into the nearby star makes it go nova the sun crusher might win....

I personally prefer the death star 2 after completion..... It can kill planet after planet and not have to rearm the sun crusher only has 12 shots i think.... it was a while ago when i read the book about it... Also the sun crusher is like giving a man a nuke rocket launcher and turning him lose with 12 shots.... bad stuff waiting to happen at least witht he death star theres less of a chance that the captian will go nuts and just start killing planets.

any ways im gonna post the infamous pros and cons of death! ehehehehehe

Pros
DStar2-
Intimidation facotor- ITS BIG
It can take out whole fleets
It has long range and endurance
can be used as manufacturing facilitys if you happen to lose all your other resources...

Sun Crusher-
Small
Nimble
Stealthish until you start killing stars
has that crazy armour that you cant destroy
kills whole star systems not just planets

Cons
DStar-
Big kindive hard to sneak around anywhere
Slow

Sun Crusher-
Low ammo cap
one man total power might tend to make people into power freaks
who wants to kill an entire star system thats just damned wastefull.....

rarrrg thats all i can think of oh well im sure im missing alot.....

Hello, no answers here for your SW questions, either. But seeing as how you look like the first legitimate "new member" in a couple days, welcome!

As per your SW questions, check the link in the top left-hand corner, it's the main site and if memory serves the Sun Crusher's mentioned along with other planet killers and the like.

Ummm...... I feel ignorant about it.....

Thanks for the info bout the SC and DS. But isn't the SunCrusher a bit like a Galaxy Gun? (I have no idea, I just heard that GGs were fat ass missile launchers)

And SC sun blasting torps are only dangerous when it hits a sun, right? Or can they just blow things up just as well as inducing novas?

The Galaxy Gun worked by firing projectiles through hyperspace at planets (at speeds of 100,000c as I recall). The sun crusher's weapon worked on a different mechanism; its torps worked exactly like the trilith torps from ST Generations. The Sun Crusher was also completely indestructible by normal methods due to its impenetrable armor.

How can a Death Star destroy a Sun Crusher? How did they destroy the SC?

And does the SC's missile only waste stars? Or can they just blow things up?

And I cannot remember the dude's nick, and his nick on this forum might be different from his nick in BlizzForum.

Black hole, IIRC. I think a superlaser winged it in the JA books though.

Shroom Man 777 wrote:And does the SC's missile only waste stars? Or can they just blow things up?

Like I said, it works like a Trek Trilith torp, in that it induces a supernova inside a sun. That's what it's designed to do, and I think that's the only thing it can blow up.

Probably him.

Wouldn't this be better moved to the PSW forum?

Now. You're lucky that I don't poke, but you're unlucky that I...

Bye bye n00b.

Oh, fucking bite me, Cyran...but you know I'll bite back, so you won't will you?

You're right Ver, I won't bite you.

*Pulls out his knife and begins stabbing Ver.* I can do that though.

[gnaws on Cyran's hand] Dude, I've been called the devil three times this week, and called a vampire on a regular basis.. your petty knife can't hurt me *that* bad..

Don't make me pull out a Hadoken on you Ver. And besides, I get called the devil at least twice a day, a vampire just as often. Not to mention I am Chaos incarnate. You think a little bite will hurt me?

Post by **haas mark** » 2003-05-11 01:43pm

Did I mention the 10+ times a day that I get called evil? Or the "evil" tattoo on my neck? Apparently not..

And as for Hadokens, well, I'll just balefire you first.

:P [balefires Captain_Cyran]

The only reason I'm not called the devil or a vampire more often is because I don't get out often enought o be called as such...

Evil, lets not even GET into being called evil.

*Casts a spell to counter the balefire.*

You're just upset because I'm not letting you infect people.

[holds Cyran back by biting him in the neck and holding him there] One of the reasons I'm called a vampire is because of my.. er.. fangs, by the way...

My, my, what a .... hospitable welcome wagon.....

What's this obsessive compulsive behavior of poking newbs?

And WTF is a Stormbringer class Super Dreadnaught? Is it better than an Executor Class SSD?
