Mmmm, no. Scooter is a paranoid scizophrenic, he thinks everyone on the net is after him. So I bet he'd run if he saw a mean-looking cat.

Xeelee starfighter

Post by The Episiarch »

Wanna know what the awesome Nightfighter is like?

page 178
"A Xeelee nightfighter is a hundred-yard sycamore seed wrought in black. The wings sweep back from the central pilot's pod, flattening until at their trailing edges they are so fine you can see the star through them."

page 179
"The wings of the sycamore seed billowed out, a shaken blanket a hundred miles wide."

-- from 'Vacuum Diagram' in the short story 'Blue Shift'

Of course, as the name implied, a single starbreaker beam is enough to cause a star to go nova, or blow a big chuck out of to destroying a planet or a moon as seen in 'Ring'.

Hope that helped.

You mean like the ones at Tigerclaw, they should be smart enough to at least fear the imperial smackdown from Mike Wong and like Ossus I want to see him rip apart the pathetic arguments of both rabid trekkies and fivers.

They'll probably just bombard Mike with hundreds of death threats, because they're so goddam nuts.

Think that would work with Mike? They'd probably use the email form and provide him with their IP addresses.

Glorious Heritage Cruiser:
Weaponry: >500*
Shields; N/A
Maneuverability: 10,000
FTL: 2,000 - 90,000 **


* I'm figuring extreme low range offensive missiles, PDLs, and drones. I'm leaving out the smart missiles and AP guns because their total firepower is a wild card. I'm also assuming that effective weapons range is counted as part of weaponry.

** I figure low end you have a very bad slipstream pilot who takes months to travel between galaxies. On the high end it would be a average/good pilot who can make the trip in a day or so.

You've got some of those numbers backwards. The Shadow spider is quite a bit more capable than any of the victim races' ships. Rating the Sharlin and Warlock at -20 and -30 weapons respectively would be more in line with the B5 tech curve.
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.
