I don't think it's to scale

yep, lol its deffo not to scale when i imported the star destroyer into sketchup with the Thor model it was roughly the size of one of the thors windows.

So its a big cargo ship with not that many weapons?

[Guest750]

It's a colony ship, how many weapons is it supposed to have?

Edit: WIP

All you need fo4 ra colony ship is a stargate, a hyperdrive, powersouse, ag device, and enough computing power to get it to it's destination and land-or crash.

Well, it it can hold 3000 people its almost the same size as the daedalus, so 5 railguns and 1 ion canon would cover maybe one quarter of the ship.

40 railguns would be enough.

2-4 ion canons (cant be tollan since we cant reverse engineer their tech)

The ship doesn't need zpm ports since it isn't Ancient based, and it has a lot of generators, but what are each of them for?

It's not your traditional colony ship, the colony colonize the ship.

Thanks

If you get your hands on ZPMs you might aswell use them.

[ManiacMike]

But thats the point, their are only a select number of zpms in the galaxy. You can switch it to have a zpm port (just one) to power their ship, but not have 3 zpms. 3 would make it as powerful as Atlantis.

edit: the pic you posted earlier, it that how you wanted it?

Ok, I done this a while back & thought I'd share it. It's a Tauri version of a Puddle Jumper.

Its armed with a 1st generation plasma cannon & is defended by a reversed engineered Kull armour (an idea got from a story on SFM). Its powered by a Mk II naq generator & 2 Mk I generators for either to power the cannons or for back up power.

The shape is kind of compromised, not round. but that's just a pactical constraint, the reverse engineered Kull armor is called ceramic polymer, look it up in the omnipedia.

I wanted it to have a human look to it.

[Crazy Tom]

I wanted it to have a human look to it.

I'd remove the bottom lights, those are weak spots, and hte drive pods/rcs thrusters, those are rendered obsolete by inerciless drive(s). And add some big lights at teh front, so it looks cool

This is supposed to be a star wars looking fighter but i think its more of a mess.
