An Unending O'neill would have no advantages over the Oddy bare more weaponary (perhaps) even then it has the disadvantage of being less agile and a bigger target.

Originally posted by mickhhh View Postlike i said if the weapons were bigger then they would be more powerful. no1 ons what powers the O'Neil but i do no it will be far more powerful than the powersouce of 304s (not including oddy but still enougth)
An Asgard O'enill with the Unending weapons would be beaten soundly. The Superhive beat Atlantis! And I'm sorry but there's nothing in the Asgard arsenal that can top that.Robert Jastrow (self-proclaimed agnostic): "For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream.

You're making up guns which don't exist saying the Asgard could put them on their ships...which is quite frankly fanwank.

plus we no that the O'Neil can generate much more power even 4 its size because of the speed it can travel
plus atlantis was not fighting very well. it was firing like 5 drones a second. if it fired them like on lost city it would have won in secondsLast edited by mickhhh; 25 January 2009, 08:36 AM.

yes, it generates more power, but it's also a much bigger ship, which means larger shields, stronger engines, more weapons. it evens out.sigpic

Why should I take your word for it that an O'neill can generate 5x the power of a 304? You do realize that even if it can generate 5x the power thats going to be shared between shields, weapons etc...I see no reason to think its going to be able to generate 5x the power either. Its not like all that extra space in the vessel is devoted to power generation.
I'll tell you what. Give me some facts or numbers to back up your unsupported claims of 5x the power beyond saying '"but but but the Oneill is much biggerrr". If not drop it an accept your wrong.

those things would take more power but it would be the same % of the powersource leaving the same % for the weapons. if it was an equal powersource that is which its far more powerful anyway

yes, the same % of power probably goes to weapons, but a vessel 5 times the size a 304 has 5 times as many weapons. they're equally powerfull.sigpic

look a beliskner already has 4x the power of a 304. the oddy has atleast the power of an Oneill when it comes to generation of power. but an oneill can carry MUCH more beam weapons. not to mention the possibility of beam-based repairs. and the absence of damage leak. an oneill IS agile. just because TPTB refuse to show their maximum potential doesnt mean they arent agile. besides, the bigger=less agile thing is taken out of the picture by Inertial Dampeners. the asgard have explosion surpressors. they could just fly around using their hundreds if not thousands of terabyte computers and advanced sensors to make up for their agility and to aim perfectly. RL tanks can aim properly at high speed. who says a race with thousands of times our calc and sensor power cant do the same on their ships? if an oneill is built for war, it would carry more and more powerfull generators. if it was built to fight replicators, it would be much more redundant. the superhive doesnt have rotatable guns. the Oneill could fire its beam weapons over and over and just hit the ship in roughly the same spot.
atlantis was frikking piloted by BECKETT. if it was sheppard, OK, but beckett isnt the best, atlantis' shields were being eaten by earth's atmosphere, they had to keep that massive thing in the air, and it didnt fire alot of drones.
a single volley from every beamcannon capable of being installed on an oneill built for that task( as i said before. so not just a few beamcannons replacing its main cannon(s), which already was(were) impressive) would DO significant damage. i mean,
"POW"
"OMG, 0wr 0n3 sh0t d03snt d0 a th1ng. what d0 w3 d0 n0w"
"brac3 f0r impact!"
seriously....
for an UnO'neill its more like

Its hard to shoot in any sort of concentrated pattern when your evading, I really don't think that an O'neill or the Oddy could survive the amount of firepower that Hive dishes out. Infact I know it couldn't. Neither the Oddy or O'enill its going to have the luxury of firing beam after beam after beam into the Hive while that thing is opening up with is significantly more numerous gun batteries.

sheilds might take 5x more power but it will take the same % of the power source.
i am not saying take my word for it but think about it. its quite simple math if you have half a brain
