Nubien was a type of starship used by Queen Amidala for her and the Jedis escape from the blockaded planet of Naboo.

Thats not entirely true. Earlier in the war, the Japanese were besting the U.S. during surface engage, especially at night because the U.S. radar targeting systems were not up to the same level as the Japanese. Nor were the U.S. sailors well traied in night time surface engagements. One...

It hasn't happened yet. I don't know if any of you have heard of the series of "Left Behind" books but they are based on Revelations. These prophecies may come to pass, maybe not in our life time but at some point in the future. And after reading the first nine books ( with more still to...

Yeah tell that to the Japanese in WWII. There efforts at building super-dreadnoughts culminated in the launching of the Musashi and Yamato. Each ship had nine 18 inch guns. Both of which by the way were sunk be carrier based aircraft, once again proving that the aricraft carrier and not the...

Yeah give him some more morphine, maybe it will help shut him up.:p :D

You're a bit off there Preacher. It was Genesis 2:17. Even though we choose to do evil things God was nice enough to forgive us. John 3:16 proves this. So even if we choose evil things we can take comfort in knowing that God is willing to forgive us our sins and promise us everlasting...

The Victory has the flight deck running the entire length of the ship straight through the middle of it. This large hole in the center decreases hanger space for the fighters.:)

Acc. absorbers absorb G forces. For example, you are being chased by a kilrathi fighter. In order to evade him you push the stick forward and make the sharpest nose dive possible. Acc. absorbers absorb much of the G forces excerted on your poor body, otherwise you'd have passed out from all...

Mass and weight are two different things. Weight has to do with gravitaional pull on an object, i.e. Earths gravitaional pull excerts a force of 200 pounds on my body. Mass has to do with the amount of space an object displaces, i.e. a rock dropped into a one liter container of water would...

Lately it seems people have been getting out of control with some of their posts. Two threads were closed on the same day because people were making angry remarks at or about one another. Everyone just needs to calm down and act like the adults we are. So what if you don't like an opinion...

Where have you been. The Devestator, Shrike, Thunderbolt, Longbow, Crossbow, all of them have rear turrets. The Devestator and Shrike even have top, bottom, and/or side turrets.

yeah fun like having an elephant sit on your head is fun.

I noticed that a few of the vessels in WC movie were shaped like present day naval vessels. All the heavy gun turrets are top side along with the bridge. I bet if these ships were dropped in an ocean they'd float.:D

I actually liked Gundam Wing and tried to watch as many episodes as I could. Dragonball Z was kinda cool too.

I agree with ya there. Since he's only in one scene its hard to make any judgements on his acting there.

Oh brother, give me a break. It's just that over the last few days some of the posts I've made have been so thoroughly scrutinized that it is beginning to get under my skin. What I'm getting at is I'll make a generalized comment and the next couple of people will come and pick it apart down to...

April Fools Day is what happened. Everybody went wacko for a couple of days.

I knew about the Confederation dreadnought. I just wasn't clear on the details about the Concordia fleet carries. I thought the fleet carriers were a newer design because of the enclosed flight deck. Why build a newer ship in the Confederation dreadnought but use an older design with a more...

Is it necessary to scrutinize everything. :rolleyes: I was just making a general observation. If I wanted to I would have been more specific but I wasn't interested in taking my time and going over every little detail. :p

Seether's characater sucked. He was wrapped up in himself way too much to be a decent character. Another character who sucked was Captain Paulson. I forget his real name but in WC4 his acting was terrible. I've seen him in actual movies and he is capable of much better performances. Peter...
