No problem, discussing with phongn right now. May be able to post later tonight about my race if I can.SirNitram wrote:Just keep it in line with the rest of the declarations, and give me a bit to deliberate on it once posted.
A friend of mine cooked up a battleship designs so enormous they needed point defenses on the tips of there gun barrels....to keep fighters from flying and fighting inside them in-between salvos. He was a bit insane I think, but I still borrow the design for my writing time to time.phongn wrote:I updated my image; I copied-and-pasted the PowerPoint vector illustration into Photoshop (where it was promptly rasterized, grr) and added some titles. It should be about to scale now, though not perfect. Yes, the Big Guns on the Confederation are the size of my battleships
That's different then actually having small craft side of the barrel shooting up the rifling and trying to detonate the next shell as its loaded.phongn wrote:Actually, I probably need something similar for Confederation, the spacing between the gun barrels is non-trivial.
There is no way in hell that I am making a map on the 100,000km scale. Although presumably Dice's worldship is still around...Admiral Valdemar wrote:I wonder what would happen if someone brought the Phallus into this...
The Sixth Imperium is still out there somewhere too, but I think they gave up on the Milky Way.Crayz9000 wrote:There is no way in hell that I am making a map on the 100,000km scale.

Actually, it might be possible on my ships, though it'd not be a fun proposition.Sea Skimmer wrote:That's different then actually having small craft side of the barrel shooting up the rifling and trying to detonate the next shell as its loaded.phongn wrote:Actually, I probably need something similar for Confederation, the spacing between the gun barrels is non-trivial.
You've done a damn fine job, if you don't mind me saying so.Crayz9000 wrote:Chart updated again. I'll probably make the smaller scale and larger scale charts tonight or tomorrow.
No, they're not. They do contain the ship's drive but they're a system akin the Minbari electromagnetic/gravetic drives.Crayz9000 wrote:Are those warp nacelles I'm seeing?
They're suitably armored and are fairly well integrated into the hull so they won't be much more vulnerable than the rest of the hull.Darksider wrote:Good. Drive nacells are easy to shoot of and........ did you say Culture?
Umm... isn't that a little too........uber?
I did send you the stuff on the basic tech. You didn't comment so I assume it's okay. It's comparable to similar technologies of the other powers.SirNitram wrote:Yes, the GSV is basically duct taped together.
I don't really care what tech basis you use for your stuff, as long as what you can do remains in line with everyone else. I will be checking over Storm's stuff to make sure it's not fantabulously better than everyone.
), so under drive, the aft part completely is not only shielded, but covered in intense gravity fields...I'm above such childish and premature thoughts.Darksider wrote:Um..... You know your flagship looks like a mutant sperm, right?
Well, if it helps, he's not the only person who had that as his first thought upon seeing the ship.Dahak wrote:I'm above such childish and premature thoughts.Darksider wrote:Um..... You know your flagship looks like a mutant sperm, right?
Pfff...
