Original Starship Design Thread

[immhotep]

this includes 60 f-302s
5000 man crew
top of the line asgard grade hyperdrive and shields
mix of asgard tari and guauld wepintry
stargate in a storage compartment midship
asgard beaming technology
30 labs
5 armories
10 cell brig

That is the athena! or the leviathon! i dont know but what an awesome and almost perfect model for our next ship in real life, i love it and hope they use it!

[mburrows]

look at MY specs for the ship hehe...the specs do seem fan wankish, but keep in mind all the resources of jaffa, tok'ra, tauri, and asgard put together worked on it hehe

[mburrows]

hmm...er...bump?

[Gen. O'Neill]

If you want to make really good ship models, try the lego designer I've made several models with it so far (explaining my lack of posts in the last few days). You should definitely check it out.

cool site man, even though i didn't use it; i had some legos that my brother use to play with (he's nineteen now so he out grew them) and i made a puddle jumper with retractable wings, the prometheus, and the dadealus. my ships are so cool, and so far they are buying me some time till DST or Hasbro make the real ships soon, and i really want the Prometheus, the Daedalus, and the Odyssey ships to come out .

[mburrows]

no more new ship designs?

[Milleniumlance]

i have been working ALOT... i have some ideas but no time or inspiration.....

D-307 Destroyer Class(2009)

Type: Capital Ship Destroyer
Technology base: Tauri/Asgard/Ancient
Hull: Titanium/ trinium alloy. Inert naquadah reinforcement arount the bridge.
Dimensions(Aproximately):
-Legnth 300m
-Width 75m
-Depth 50m
Power: 6 naquadah MkXV Generators
Engines: 3 Large Asgard propulsion Units
3 Tauri Sublight drives
2 Asgard Hyper Space window generators(One is a back-up)
Weapons:3 twin turret plasma cannons
Defence:Recent Asgard designed Sheilding.
Aditional Tech:
Asgard beaming systems x2
Ancient based sensor array
Crew: 48(with room for an additional 30)

Reason for Existence:
After the devastating events that occured when earth vessels encountered Ori weapons (the satelite and the super gate encounter) it was decided that the standard armourments(railguns and missiles) were simply too weak to destroy capital ships and a new design had to created to cope with this threat.
The D-307 project is an Anglo-American project(with help from the Asgard) and outfitted with some unique weapons. As the ship is only a single purpose design(only good for taking on large ships) only two were built. The British vessel is the Dreadnought and the US named thiers The Pendergast after the last commander of the Promethues who died saving his crew from an Ori sattelite.

Description:
The plasma cannons work by creating a forcefield in breach and then loading a few kilos of naquada in to the forcefield. Then, ion beams are concentrated to heat the naquadah to exploding point. As it is contained within a forcefield the naquada cannot explode. This mass of plasma is then magnetically accelerated along the cannon and at the enemy ship. Although the ball of plasma cannot penetrate the shields the massive amount of energy produced does overwhelm them fairly quickly. In tests just 4 hits was predicted destroy a hatak class ship.

The reason for duplicate systems is that the ship cannot effectively defend its self from small, fast moving ships(elkesh and fighters) and it is predicted to be a priority target for the enemy when they see what it does to thier fleet. The shields are the best that could be fitted but there is not enough power to provide the three main engines and the shields simultaniosly so three lower powered Earth engines were fitted to aid manouverability during a batttle. The two beaming systems are there as exterior entrances could not be fitted as this would comprimise hull integrity.

This is my first ship design so i'd like to know what anybody thinks and sorry it is not modelled in 3d but I only have paint.

Excellent, you've managed to put in big guns but make the trade off reasonable, so it doesnt turn it into fanwank.
Overall a nice design.

EDIT: I do have two problems:
First, the ship's armament, role and defensive capabilities mean it would most likely be called a heavy cruiser, or even funnily enough; a Battlecruiser)
Second, naming the US ship Pendergast; he should have been posthumously whipped with a stick for being the most retarded commanding officer to ever enter combat.(Ethon is my most hated episode, the awful writing makes OculusMortis talk in the third person)

[pyrodude]

Thanks! I am creating a cargo vessel at the moment and just need to do the specs on it and the rear view. I will probably post it on Monday.

On a side note, I know that Pendergast was not the smartest commander but I believe it was Sam's idea to wait and that led to the Prometheusus' demise. And i could not call it the Prometheus due to confusion and out of respect.

[OculusMortis]

The problem is he was a full bird, both Sam and Mitchell are only Lt Colonel's he had overall command, furthermore they entered the planets surrounding space with one goal; if Daniel hadn’t got them to surrender the weapon, then they were to destroy the satellite, anyone facing an unknown weapon wouldn’t risk their life and their crews lives hoping they don’t get fried.
He also 'opened up' with 2 missiles on the satellite, which did nothing, then rather than ordering all batteries/tubes fire, he looked mystified and asked Sam or Mitchell for some advice.
tbh the whole episode was awful, calling off Mitchell when he had a chance to take out the satellite, I mean wtf, yes sure lets leave Ori fundie nutjobs with the pwning beam of death(tm)......

I could see them naming the ship after him, nobody else seemed to realise how bad he did

PS. sorry for a rant, but I REALLY hate Ethon, because it should have been so much better

[cooky]

Just remember, its a tv show, not real life. Good story telling will always trump good military tactics. They should've launced missles at the satellite within moments of reverting from hyperspace, but that wouldn't have made for good tv. Pendergast is just a puppet of drama, and died for it. For that, he gets a reprieve.

As for new ships, I've been working on some updates, and combat capabilities to my 305 posted earlier, (should be posted this weekend sometime) and a "heavy carrier" I'll start work on probly next week. Also been thinking of posibilities for a light cruiser, and another wildcard like I did with the Millenial Pride.

First though, I want to finish this. Still needs the big engine, interior and weapons.

[Rail'k]

nice its looking good

[immhotep]

yeah its really gd, whats you spec on it? because add rail guns and a shield generator type bit (like a bit on top of the cockpit thats orangey or white) and i might get a model for the 303 ( soemthing ive been dreaming bout for a while)

[mburrows]

lol, i just noticed that myself



anywho, ima getting a few seasons tomorrow or sunday or sumtin, ill be looking around in those for ship idea but for now, here is my tauri eqivelavt to an alkesh...no graphic sadly
