Topic: What is the best spaceship?

I'd say the best fighter is the Goa'uld Deathglider. It pwned for 6000 years and going.

The best bigass cruisership I think would be the Batllestar from Battlestar Galactica. Large capacity of fighters, and huge laser gun plus turrets.

Deathstar doesn't count due to lack of manoeuvrability. But maybe it fits into an additional category of best spacestation.

Re: What is the best spaceship?

DS9 is the best spacestation because it is protected by deities.  Nobody ever flew past a DS9 airshaft and threw a nuke into the power plant.

Re: What is the best spaceship?

hmm for big one id say the Super star destroyed, shame the movie ruined its use since all you seem to need is a suicidal pilot and the gravitational pull off a small moon
so lets go with A borg Cube as big one

And, meh what the heck, for the small one ill go with the ship from Space Invaders! I mean, that thing sure as well killed some enemy's

<@Nolio> Ilu was the man back in the day,he even made monkeywrench and arganon look good for half a round =p
<@iluvatar> it is my grandest achievement

Best spaceship everrrrr!

Re: What is the best spaceship?

I think Andromeda is the best space ship because it has perfect AI and bombs that make suns go supernova.

Re: What is the best spaceship?

xwings blew up the death star

twice

and can go from hoth to dagobah on their own

and can be crewed with the same number of mechanics as a Formula One car

and you could base them inside a cathedral if it had a big enough door and a empty parking lot

silly to build bigger ships really

Re: What is the best spaceship?

everyone knows that the Foundation builds the best spaceships X(

BSG is clearly a capital/carrier ship and not a measly cruiser X( X(

the Dune highliners do win on shear badassness though... I mean having a completely deformed completely stoned drug addict at the helm of a ship so big it can transport scores of also quite big ships has got to be off the charts in terms of shear badassery

TARDIS gets by because it skips outside the space-time continuum, if it flies through space its always in trouble

Re: What is the best spaceship?

I think Commander Keen's spaceship is the best. It doesn't require a team of highly educated engineers to maintain it and it can be fixed with everyday objects like a vacuum cleaner etc.

God: Behold ye angels, I have created the ass.. Throughout the ages to come men and women shall grab hold of these and shout my name...

Re: What is the best spaceship?

You guys have got it all wrong....

Best capitol/cruiser is the SDF-1 from the Macross series. It has a spacefold drive which is faster than a FTL drive (hyperspace drive in Star Wars) It has a city built into it. It can transform into a robot and has 100's of weapon systems. It also has the 'Reflex Cannon" which obliterates anything in its path.

Best fighter sized ship is the Veritech Fighters also from Macross. They can transform into Battloid and Gaurdian mode for versatility. They can fly in a vacuum and in an atmosphere. It is fueled by Protoculture which creates an instant link between man and machine. They have great firepower and can be augmented further with extra armor and weaponry.

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he&#65279; is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!!

Re: What is the best spaceship?

The best spaceship are Tyranid hive ships.

Billions strong, organic, and capable of FTL travel. They eat everything and evolve in mere generations.
