Who is to say they don't have Asgard weapons on the back? And plus they have the new improved railguns which have a pretty good arc of fire.

    The thrusters on the front are beneath the 'narrow bit'. You can see them between the hangars here. And here. And we don't know how thick the hull is. We have seen the ship take multiple Wraith blasts while unshielded and survive.

    I personally don't see what is so bad about them. They obviously do their job well as only one has been destroyed in the run of the class so far, despite the fact that they have gotten into loads of 'situations' and are usually out-numbered or face stronger opponents. They look good, at least that was the general concesus of everyone who cared when the design was first seen on screen. The show ain't a documentary, it's entertainment.

    EDIT:

    Just checked the BAMSR promo on the Stargate MGM site, and there is an Asgard laser on the underside of the 'narrow bit', so it does have a wider firing arc.
    And how many of the voters were engineers, soldiers or designers?

    What does FUBAR stand for? (PM if not PG, please)

      ...or realise there is no point watching because you cannot create something original.

I mean GW was full with threads about that Larin girl and how amazing she is on the set and how much fun they are having,bla,bla,bla,bla. Before I saw the episode I said, okay,this sounds fun, they are introducing a new character, new race, lots of things can happen. 5 minutes after they introduced her, I was like, jinkies, where is my shovel? I need to smack someone!
        And look who's in BAMSR! YEY!

          True. I think it works for DW because sometimes something will be a reference to the Old Series (Like bringing back old enemies) which is appreciated by someone like me and is a new experience for the new viewers
          bringing back an enemy that is only 5 years old is not going to be an experience for anyone, except maybe a 'Oh look the (insert enemy of your choice) are back, again'

            Having guys seen the new strategy to attract viewers?


            Beginning January 11, 2008, viewers of Stargate Atlantis will receive a "gate code" which, when registered at the contest Web site, will enter the user into a contest that will put the winner's image or likeness into the video game.
            Every code you enter is another chance to win, and the codes will only be shown during viewings of the new first-run episodes of Stargate Atlantis's fourth season, airing Friday nights on SCI FI Channel in the U.S.

            If you can't create good episodes, try manipulating your audience

              It really is a good argument. Why is it that shows like B5, Firefly, Star Wars and BSG have credible ship designs while SG doesn't?

              Also, if I want accurate things I just have to open my textbooks or walk around the university campus.

                Greg, you are looking for something that is not there. There is no rule of thumb in Sci-Fi that states ships need to have credible designs. Lucas hired a team of aerospace engineers for his ships. Take SW out of there because it is not a low budget series . BSG, if you see Exodus part II, you will see that there are some kinks with Galactica they need to straighten out. Either way, we are wandering off topic. SCI-Fi is a genre that allows flexibility. I used to be very critical about these things in TV SERIES but nobody actually cares as long as they see bang boom crash and fantastic stories ...and I study aerospace

                    There you go, something I can be anti about:

                    Travelers. I was very dissapointed, because I had expected it to be great. Obviously it wasn't. For me anyways.

                      Most of us feel that way because it is a youtube style rip off for Prometheus Unbound but with Aurora ships and SGA crew .

If everyone is in agreement, the mutual feeling of being correct is only strengthened, and it's usually useful, while having group discussions and making group decisions to have one member of the group to play "the devil's advocate" and question everything - that's a good way to discover flaws in the plan.
                        I'm well aware of "Group-thinking" and the idiocy it usually promotes...
