Spoiler:Thanks! It'll be a walk in the park ... a very scary park, filled with monsters who are trying to kill me.
I like the yellow ones.
Operation "This Will Most Likely End Badly" is a go.
OH CRAP!!!

And remember how lousy the Prometheus was when it was first seen? Hardly anything worked right until the Asgard helped out.
Based on the size of 302s, here is my own scale comparison:

i dont know a bad comparison of my own
Maybe the Daedelus is just a more efficient design. Instead of wasting precious space on having wide open corridors and bridges, the Daedelus has more room for impotant stuff such as weapons, shields and fighters. Also it has a large bomb bay which the prommie seemed to lack.aka paddytehpyro

Thanks for the comments guys. I don't want to thread jack.
Few people even realise just how big Daedalus/Odyssey/Apollo, etc are supposed to be...
Those ships are huge, and when you think in Star Trek terms, they are capable of so very much more(Speed-wise and weaponry wise...)
The Daedalus(Which i mastered), is a kit you can buy(It's out of stock right now, but more are on their way), and the Prometheus is being cast as we speak.
I am also working on some of my own designs based on Asgard/Tau'Ri hybrid design cues.
I don't want to derail the thread though.
If anyone wants to see those ones, i can post them inside spoiler boxes.

Originally posted by LTCOLHOMER View Postdamn nice but if you look at the deadalus compared to the pimped enterprise the hull plates i always thought were human size but when you compare them to the enterprise those hull plates are massive. and i do believe the enterprise is a weee bigger cuz well the deadalus looks like a block of solid war material and enterprise so sleek and awsome. send ling to where to buy and does it really come in just those peices cuz if it does thats awsome sry continue with subject of thread
Seriously. The Daedalus is 580 metres long. And the Ent-E is approximately 650 metres long.
And as for the apprent discontinuity of the hull panelling, the ablative hull panels are not single panels, but huge groups of smaller panels to protect sensitive areas when the shields go down.
The link to order a copy is in the link i sent above. If you follow it, you will see a "Pre-order" tab on the page with the parts.
And if you guys want to see the AWESOME build a friend of mine did with his copy, follow this link...

How large are the 'secondary' fighter bays? They look barely large enough for a 302 to fit in there. If they are that small I would have thought that they would be used for take-off as it would be to risky to try and land in such a confined space. However I don't think that they have ever been shown in use.
Maybe two fighters could be placed in each to decrease the time it takes to launch all available fighters but then why haven't we seen so?
Thank you bar for the links and such. Also the pic showing the 304 next to the Enterprise-E(?). Really gives a sense of scale, well if youve seen Star Trek any way.aka paddytehpyro

Yeah, The Daedalus is so much more advanced than anything from star trek.

Yep, the 304 is a big ship. I'd love to see one go head to head against the Enterprise-E.Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity!

I've always wondered how well the Enterprise's shields would stand up to Rail-Guns. I don't think they would last very long somehow. I mean, they use the deflector to get rid of space-debris so it makes sense that they can't take too much damage from kinetic energy weapons.
