90 days research for something Death Star sized, and another ninety to build it. Right?

I asked about that once, but it seems anything that large used for battle purposes is illegal?? That's what I remember... could be wrong, though. :|

Erm, actually... 90 days for building is correct. (as far as I know, so it was w/ the Erebus) you might want to show your research and etc to a admin, just to make sure it'll be acceptable.

No dice on superweapons, period. I think those are the rules.

The rule is no death stars, and that vessels greater than 2km (excluding the SSD and the Vong SSD analog) require a 90-day construction period and RP. They can include superlasers, so long as you have your 90 day RP.

Also add no sun Crushers. apart from that, I believe Viscera summed it up correctly

What's the point of making a ship that large? Are you compensating for other inadequacies? :)

Reysa Here, nah, we are going to use them as planeterial attack ships, Imp ships cant enterthe ordbit of the planet to fly 200-500 ft of the ground when with the ships we areaking these ships will be city sized and can go below the Ozone layer of the planet and attack citys and such from 1000 ft above it...

At 1000 feet the mere exhaust of a ship that size would completely level a city with the force of an H-bomb. Hell, you needn't equip it with weapons.

I think what Visc is trying to say is something the size of a city, entering a planet would frell it up. Something that large entering even the gravitational pull of a planet would cause tidal waves let alone as he said level a city on the planet. I think you need to be a bit more realistic on something that size entering the atmosphere of a planet.

Yea i actrally agree with that...ok the ship wont have to enter atmoseres then

I don't know about that, my argument is just that having a 20km long ship hovering 1000 feet above a city.....my god. Hell even a fighter jet at 100 feet can knock over cars as it roars by at 700mph. And that's just a 15 meter (or so) craft with ~35,000lbs of thrust indirectly frelling things up.

Now imagine something 1,700 times longer hovering over a city, with engines on the order of a million times more powerful, as they have to be in order to generate enough thrust to keep the monster aloft. That's a lot of speeders, buildings, trees, and other crap flying around. Probably about 1,000 times more damage than an F-5 tornado.

Do you guys see what I'm saying?

You're talking about a major landscaping job.

I see what your saying Visc, and something that powerful and size it a darn good idea if i say somyself..BUT the whole point in taking over a planet IS to damnage minorly blowing over speeders and ppl dose not intrest me, what intrests me is taking over the planet with a certain degree of damage to knock out its main defences...Hangers...Wepaons factory..and to me,useing TIE every 5 secs like the Viashino is so a costumed to do is getting kinda old..so to me this would be fun to watch and to RP out...

A dude I work with lives in Mexico City and it's a hell of a lot bigger than that. It takes 4 hours to drive from one side of the city to the other on the HIGHWAY!!!! Well it is the largest city in the world, in SW though there are cities way bigger than that.

Sydney is nearly 100km from east to West and it's not considered huge.

ROTFL @ Vis!
