IIRC it was mentioned in a novel that there is more then just one and you could see more in one if the WC3 cutscenes. There where about 4 ships of this class around Kilrah or at least there are 3 other ships with a shape that is very close to the dreadnought that comes into view.
No offense taken, in fact you are kinda right. I tried to avoid things. Now I have to arguee, well lets see if I could put some things together.
Okay lets get back to the basics.
So from what I see we got this:
- Manual: 22km
- False colors: Was there realy a size mentioned? I remember the part that says that the Mjölnir is small enough to "hover" over one of the claw like structures or even fit between them.
- Game: Never gotten into the code or extracted the model, so I don't know what the size of the DN was but it didn't looked that big.
I think we could agree that it was not 22km long from the look of it.
- Cutscenes: Browsing through the scenes I think the ship is pretty much the same size in all the scenes.
Looking at the scene where the victory is ramming the dreadnought its pretty much obviouse that its also not 22km in size, in that scene!
Still its kinda hard to determine the size that it has as we only see a part and then you have to take into consider the angle of the shoot, etc, etc,...
So when summing it up we could have 1-4 different sized dreadnoughts.
One, when the manual is right and everything else is wrong scaled, 4 when False Colors didn't has a number but I think it did so we would have about 3 sizes.
Manual/False color sizes: 22km
Gamesize: Unknow, at least to me
Cutscene size: Unknow, at least to me
Would that be right?
....someone thinks it's a good idea to stick 'opinion' somewhere to avoid debate ....
& (In all seriousness, I honestly do mean no offense here... it's just a pet peeve I wanted to yell about. On to more interesting things...)
