      Well basicly its main wepons are to ventral Super Coil Guns or MACs the ship is small and fast and agile enough to be a gun ship but is to big to be classifed as such. the ship is ment to be used in hit run and swarm tactics to over whelm, confuse, and ocupie the enmey while our big hitters line up there guns.

      I dont have the exact specs yet but heres the gist

      about 1/3 the size of the natlus destroyer class

When I first did it in paint, it was just a Lafayette class frigate with engines slapped on it and slight modifications because I was making a French ship. But I didn't think it looked very stargatey so I added more stargate like elements. And I modified it so many times that it ended up looking nothing like the Lafayette, so I just made it some American ship.

            Aaanyway..does the cruiser designation fit?
            Yup. Looks like.

            Oh, and BTW: The Daedalus is about 450 meters long. The Prometheus was ~200 meters long.

              try and keep away from halo weapon names. give it an origonal name. and maybe design the entire weapon. it looks cheezy when you try and pass off halo weapons with sg

              as an advid halo fan i thought id mention it.

                Uhm..okay, so I kinda wanna make my own fleet now, but I don't really know all the ships I would need. So far all I have is a carrier, a destroyer, a cruiser, and a fighter. Could someone make a good list of the kinda of things I would need to make to create an entire fleet?

                    I made a ship comparison thinger. The Daedalus is scaled at 450 meters.

                      Well dude, we already have a fleet essentially. There isn't too much demand for dedicated support ships because we can just fly to a planet with a Stargate, dial up Earth and order spare parts. Refits are handled in docks that are rarely more than a few weeks away, so there isn't much need for mobile dock ships. Tel'tacs can serve as light cargo haulers and scouts between our capital ships. On the other hand, a larger cargo hauler that carries everything from missiles to toothpaste might be in order. Otherwise though, for the moment our fleet is pretty set. One carrier/assault ship, one mothership, two cruisers and a destroyer. The US Navy has more classes of ships, but only a relative low number of basic types: Carrier, assault ship, cruiser, destroyer, frigate, patrol boat, mine sweeper, submarine, auxilary.
