The second Death Star was stated to have a large number of milimeter sized vents all across its surface to avoid the single point of failure that caused the destruction of the first Death Star, ref http://www.starwars.com/databank/locati ... index.html. Going through any of those vents would be just as hard as going through the conventional armor.Picard wrote: Interphase cloak is small enough to fit on runabout. For DS1, they would not need vent at all. For DS2, it is similar design, so it also must have vent, which seemed to be far larger than that of DS1, althought if I'm not wrong, it would be blocked somehow. But it probably would not be sufficient to stop runabout equipped with interphase cloak.

Re: Trek Fleet counts
Hey, moron: HOW ABOUT ACTUALLY READING WHAT PEOPLE ARE WRITING?Interphase cloak is small enough to fit on runabout. For DS1, they would not need vent at all. For DS2, it is similar design, so it also must have vent, which seemed to be far larger than that of DS1, althought if I'm not wrong, it would be blocked somehow.

Seriously, fucktard - i TOLD YOU that the second Death Star has NO LARGE, VULNERABLE VENT! It has millions of small vents which will not cause a chain reaction when hit.
AND STOP ASSUMING THAT A PHASE CLOAK WILL WORK! You have NO EVIDENCE that it works regardless of material and that it can penetrate shields!
You have ENTIRELY IGNORED my argument that the phase cloak was faulty, and enough of a failure that all major powers adandoned research altogether. Yet you are assuming that it will be mass-produced and work without any errors.
Seriously - HOW ABOUT ACTUALLY ADDRESSING OUR ARGUMENTS?! You have stopped so entirely, merely repeating your points over and over and OVER again, in utter ignorance. Stop being such a damn simpleton and start to debate.

Now assuming you mean, "Then they will just go through the vent", you're absolutely fucking wrong. First of all there was no vent large enough for a ship to fit through on the DS1 and on the DS2 there was also no vent, if you mean the open side that was part of a ruse to trick the rebel fleet into thinking it was incomplete by making it look less complete than it really was then you're also wrong. You're continually ignoring the fact that the rebels reached that point in the galaxy using a drive many times faster than the drive speeds in Star Trek and that an incomplete DS2 wouldn't be sent to the enemy until it was made complete. This would include things like a fully enclosed hull and secondary and point defense batteries.
Second, and I hope you take this in the most appropriate way, kindly fuck off with the wall of ignorance style and please don't let the door hit you on the way out you shit sucking piece of mother fucking trash.

Re: Trek Fleet counts
Maybe their magic PJ's cooled them, or they spent some time recalibrating their phasers to cool them, perhaps they took an anti-warming pill from sickbay. Let's be honest, the Trek side here is provide nothing in terms of information on this worthless cloak so I'm going to keep attacking your points with whatever I feel like until you can explain if the floor or a single gravity was enough to stop a ship from cruising through your hull, or explaining why we should believe that phase cloak wouldn't store energy. Or why people can still see non-phased photons, or breath non-phased air?fallendragon wrote:Norade, are you sure that the poeple on Startrek are the only ones half brain dead?

Given that we know gases and photons interact with matter if you can find a cloaked ship then a significantly high powered laser should be able to deal damage, alternatively particle beams, or plasma may also work. Things like flooding decks with toxic gases would also work against phase cloaked intruders we know the GE has NBC proof combat uniforms for Stormtroopers where as standard feddie flannel won't stop anything.

Re: Trek Fleet counts
How about if you knock out their gravity somehow (ST6) would everyone just stay put as the ship passed them by until they were outside the hull? that sounds plausible if not hilarious...Norade wrote:Maybe their magic PJ's cooled them, or they spent some time recalibrating their phasers to cool them, perhaps they took an anti-warming pill from sickbay.

One throught which Millenium Falcon flew throught before destroying Death Star II. Serafina argued it would be closed - however, it can't be sealed off by hundreds of meters of metal beacouse such thing will negate entire point of having it.

THAT WASN'T A THERMAL EXHAUST PORT! It was never supposed to be one.
What the rebels used to fly into the hearth of the second Death Star was a shaft (or not even that, they didn't fly in a straight line) that was there because the damn thing was not yet FINISHED. It's likely that it was deliberately left there to lure the rebels into the trap set for them.
You have NO EVIDENCE that it was supposed to be a thermal vent. In fact, we direct statements from the EU that it was NOT a thermal vent - and it was never referred as such in G-canon, so don't claim "contradiction" again. It was also obviously under construction, and utterly impractical as a thermal exhaust port due to the way it was constructed.
Again, you are ignoring all my statements, deliberately strawmaning them instead of challenging them directly. You are also rejecting logic and evidence whenever (or rather, always) they don't fit your per-conceived notions.
I have told you at least a dozen times why it's obviously not a thermal exhaust port. You have presented absolutely NO evidence that it is. You are an utter failure.
BTW, i will now highlight all your spelling errors in a nice, bright red - because your text appear that way due to my spell checker anyway. Go and get one, if your a incapable of proper spelling on your own.

Re: Trek Fleet counts
@Picard
Throught is not a word and does not become one just because you use it twice in the same sentence.
Even ignoring the fact that you have yet to show evidence they intended to keep the shaft when it's blatantly obvious that the path to the reactor core was open thanks to the DS2 still being under construction, how do you know closing it off would render it useless?
Besides, even if for some never ever mentioned anywhere, at all, throughout all of canon, reason, the finished DS2 was meant to keep that shaft and require it to be accessible from the outside, what's to stop them from blocking it with a big hunking armoured door?

Re: Trek Fleet counts
Actually, i am pretty damn sure that it wasn't even a shaft. They didn't fly in a straight line, and they had to "lock onto the strongest energy source", which would be unnecessary if it was a thermal exhaust port that only goes into one direction. I would have to re-watch the scene to be sure, but i doubt i recall it that incorrectly - basically, they flew their way trough the unfinished internal structure of the Death Star. That's also supported by some of them turning sideway and "leading some of them (pursuing TIEs) back to the surface.
Put simply, Picard has ZERO evidence that it was a thermal exhaust port, other than it being a shaft - and likely, it wasn't even that. He only claims so because he is a damn, bloody trek-wanking moron.

Re: Trek Fleet counts
Before I give my answer as to why the "floor" stopped the characters I want to point out that it is flawed and does not answer all the problems of those scenes. Like how the characters are able to run while phased when they should not get any friction to use traction. So other than saying that I have put many more hours of thought into than the writers did.Norade wrote: I feel like until you can explain if the floor or a single gravity was enough to stop a ship from cruising through your hull, or explaining why we should believe that phase cloak wouldn't store energy.
This answer works...
tecno-BS wrote:The floor is covered in "Gravity plates" that project a 1G field almost completely unidirectionaly, I say that because we never see anyone crawling on the ceiling or people hair fall toward it. They Grav-field is holding them down because that is as far as they could fall. They maybe able to go through the floor if they could gain enough momentum, other wise it is like jumping on a trampoline.
It might be a misnomer to say "breath" as they might not need to, absorbing o2 from the non-phased air directly.Norade wrote: Or why people can still see non-phased photons, or breath non-phased air?
You should be able to add microwaves, and any part of the EM spectrum, to the list of thing that can hurt a phased ship, as it effects phased matter with little if any difference. So if they are using a "faraday cage" to harden their systems, that has just failed.
There's a great difference between potential and developed power. The one is clearly visible and can be awe-inspiring. The other may take a demigod to recognize.

doesn't mean it wasn't a shaft. Mind you, anybody sane, or at least without the clear-cut intent to insist on their point even if any and all available evidence says it's wrong, saw what you and I did, namely the rebel forces cum pursuers navigating the unfinished parts of the DS2.
Mind you, if it were supposed to be a thermal exhaust port (for which there is exactly zero evidence, as there is for it being a shaft to begin with, as opposed to a natural side effect of the DS2 being barely more than half complete-I guess there being massive open spaces to maneuver through in skyscrapers under construction means there'll be large open shafts incorporated there when they're finished, too) all those bends are bound to do...interesting things to its possible throughput.
My point was even if one grants Picard's completely unsupported claims that
1)that shaft was there on purpose rather than simply a free way through the still unfinished parts of the DS2 and
2) it was to remain once construction finished,
that doesn't mean it'll do the Trek side any good as even if we grant all those unfounded assumptions there's no reason it has to be permanently open to space.

watch from 5:10 to 5:20 the opening is built out from the main surface in a uniform "round" structure but once inside it is anything but, I am guessing this was somehow a service corridor perhaps for small shuttles or freighters to carry supplies directly deep into the structure to aid faster construction. naturally this means it wouldnt be used once the DS2 was completed.

Collossus .... I only see one mistake and if you can point out a spell checker I'd be more then willing to use it. As it is I do my best.
Norade, have you ever even watched StarTrek? and I have never said that the phase cloak is an effective weapon (or even one that is truely in the StarTrek arsonal). Yet, when your counter arguement to a piece of data is fucking magic PJ's, it is rather hard for me to take you seriously, as unlike Collossus, I find what a person has to say more important then how they say it.
Now for what I have to say.
phase cloak effected by denisity? At best the data for this is rather shaky.
phase cloak effected by light? The data contradicts itself.
phase cloak effected by heat? I have to say unlikely if i understand Star Fleet constuction correctly.
phase cloak effected by gas? Yes we have proof of this.
phase cloak effected by gravity? This is the best explaination of why personal don't fall through the floor, however there are problems with this theory, namly that the Enterprise when through asteroid gamma 601 (memory alpha for title of it) as the gravity was not switch off.
