    As for the Ori, I doubt we could build something this big in time.
    They only were facing 6 ship and they got beaten in the end.

      Try FOURTEEN Hive ships. They wouldn't have been beaten if the Wraith hadn't jammed our transporter tech. We'd have kicked their asses.

        The Wraith were caught off guard, it wouldn't work twice.

          Down boys...

          I think that the existing ships are quite good for now. All they really need to do is put them all in the same place, maybe make a few more. I mean, the Wraith won by sheer numbers! So, the logical conclusion is...

          OUTNUMBER THEM!!!

            The Hippo; a transport ship I created for use in the Stargate RPG.

            C-304 Hippo Hyperspace Transport


            Dimensions:
            Length: 95m
            Beam: 42m (Wingspan 85m)
            Height: 40m
            Crew: 2 (1 Pilot and 1 Navigator/W.O.)
            Additional Occupancy: 14/64*
            Mass: 26 metric tons
            Cargo Capacity: 15 metric tons

            Offence:
            2x 13.6mm Railguns
            1x Dual .50 cal Point Defence Turret
            4x Standard missile Hardpoints (usually loaded with BIM-52a missiles)

            Defence:
            Energy Shield (reduced in size and power from the Daedalus class ships)
            Chaff & Flares
            Full ECM and ECCM suite
            Ablative Trinium plating

            Power:
            3x Mk.2 Naquadah Generators

            Propulsion:
            Anti-Gravity System (Allowing the ship to VTOL and hover)
            Ion-Engines
            Type 4 Naquadriah Hyperdrive (with Goddard Buffer)

            The ship has living quarters and is capable of sustaining a crew of 16 for 60 days.
            *The cargo hold is pressured and is capable of carrying 50 men for short period of time in cramped conditions, or a Challenger 2 Tank.

            I have Floorplans somewhere and may post them.....if i can find them.

                And outsmart them.

                Super-battleships are all well and good, but they involve a LOT of resources and R&D, not to mention time and effort, to construct. I'm not saying we shouldn't build some "superships", so to speak, to engage enemy fleets and be able to emerge victorious, but those kinds of ships take years to build, and are total nightmares to supply and maintain.

                Smaller vessels that don't have the whole "all eggs in one basket" approach are much more practical and cost-efficient. Big, capital ships need support from lots of medium and small ships, because since it's one big target, if it acts alone it could be overwhelmed.

                More Daedalus-class vessels, more destroyer and cruiser-type ships, and a couple big battleships and carriers are a lot more flexible than building huge, super-battleships and that's it.

                And the Asgard's approach to warfare is very different from ours. They don't require fighters, or large support vessels. It's just not how they fight. Adjusting our military doctrine to fit another race's, when it's not what we need to do, is just foolish.

                  My approach is simple, you build one of my ships, which if you read it, has EMP Wave shield so ships not equiped with a shield (eg, non earth ships) are unable to engage. Then build about 8 more Deadalus Class ships. Build 5 Prometheus Class Ships. And build 1500 more F-302s.

                    All right! More detailed ship idea threads!

                    I'll be back in a while with an idea of my own (I use a 56K )

                    Anyway, I'll be back in about within the hour with some specs.

It's captained by Captains Kirk,Picard, JAneway, Sisko, Archer, Hunt and Keys. It is also captained by Vin Diesel. It has two A.I.'s-Romie(from Andromeda) and Cortana.
                          It also carries 1 million Spartan II super soldiers, 3 million tanks and 11Billion nukes. It's shields can withstand the combined force of 10 supernovas every second. It's hyperdrive allows it to get to Atlantis from Earth in exactly 0.00004 nanoseconds. ANd naturally it's main weapon can destroy the UNiverse. "

                          Please in the name of all that is holy,logical and scientific-don't post things like that!I've seen way too many.

                            Description: The RH84 Hermes is a medium range reconnaissance vessel. It is designed for scouting and exploration missions, which is why the RH84 is lightly armed and fitted with sub light engines. Instead of engaging targets like the F302B the RH84 relies on stealth to evade detection and high speed engines to outrun other ships. The Hermes has 3 weeks worth of oxygen and enough food to sustain the crew for 2 weeks

                            Class: Scout Vessel

                            Role: Medium Range Reconnaissance Vessel

                              History:

                              During the war with the Ori, the US Government received immense pressure from the Asgard, Jaffa, and the IOA to develop a more powerful warship capable of defending Earth from the ori and not just the Go'auld. When the scentists and engineers at Area-51 received their orders for the X-305 project, they did not feel as though they could create a more powerful ship than the X-304. When the first designs of the X-305 was presented to the IOA and the pentagon, the IOA accepted the ship with enthusiasm, but the Pentagon did not feel as though the ship's weapon and defense systems would be sufficient.

                              After 6 months of negotiations, the Asgard High Council agreed to give the Tau'ri another piece of their advanced technology, this time, a power core. Though not as powerful as the standard Asgard power core, the Mk. II 'Asgard Generator' was more powerful than a combination of over 25 Naquadda generators. With this new power source, the engineers at Area-51 was able to add wepaons systems to the X-305. The engineers decided to lace everything with naquadda, making every weapon more powerful.

                              The barrel of the standard railgun was widened by 1" to accomodate for the larger rounds which became 60% Naquadda. The Engineers also laced the Standard Armor-Piercing Anti-Tank round from the M-1 Abrams tank with naquadda to give the ship a more powerful punch. The Scientists at Area-51 also came up with an alloy than is a combination of Steel and Trinium, resulting in a much stronger metal. All of these advancements are then implimented into the X-305b, and both the IOA and the Pentagon accepted the plans for the ship. The pentagon also decided to implement these new advances to the X-302 and the X-304.

                              Plans were made to build the first X-305, dubbed the 'Apollo' for the Greek God of Light. The Apollo made her maiden voyage on June 9, 2007 above Earth's atmosphere. The Apollo's first major mission was to lead an Asgard, Jaffa, and Earth attack on the Ori consisting of 2 Apollo-Class Warships, 4 Daedalus-Class Warships, 6 Daniel-Jackson Class Warships, 4 O'neill Class Warships, and 20 Hatak vessels. The attack was deemed a sucess with 12 Hatak, 2 Daniel Jackson, and 1 Daedalus Class casualties. To this day, historians beleive that the Apollo-Class Warships played a key role in defeating the Ori and securing the Milky-Way Galaxy. The Apollo's missions are now being conducted in the Pegasus Galaxy, against the ever-hostile Wraith.

                                History
                                After the entrance of the Ori ships into our galaxy, the Pentagon ordered the development of a new Battle Cruiser. Our scientists at Area 51 used a donated Hat'ak, wreckage from Ori Starships, and info donated from the Asgard in the new design. When the scientists were unable create a powercore to power the ship, they turns to the Atlantis team. After long experimentation with the help of the Ancient Respository of Knowledge, Dr. Rodney McKay figured out how to build a ZPM, but sadly, there are not enough materials for mas production, so only a 8 were made.

                                With 6 ZPMs, the scientists at Area 51 were able to build 6 X-306s. The ships made their maiden voyage in 2007. Their mission was to destory the Supergate. Followed by the Russian 304, The Daedalus, Oddessy, 2 other 304s, and the Ancient Class Orion, the Earth Armada engaged the gate, but were attacked by 30 Ori Starships.

                                The F-306s engaged and destroyed the Starships and destroyed them with ease. Then the armada delivered several Gatebuster warheads, which took out the gate.
