I am going to see if I can find some of these episodes, I bet they have a battle seen some place even if the rest of the episode is no place to be found.

I will try and bring some more real star trek information. So far that video was the only thing really showing the power of these weapons. Agaist other ships and no additional information you could make shields and weapons as powerful as you want. For example take the torpedo it could be 64 megatons or 200 trillion and as long as the a star ship shield can take it who cares how powerful it is. What we need for this thread is more "real" information. There has been a lot of good things pul

I found the video link I wanted. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgihmmLY75Y&feature=related At about say 4:30 the fleet opens up on the planet. 30% of the planet crust destroyed in the first volley. I just may have to switch my vote.

Anyone remember the episode in deep space nine where the founders planet is getting bombarded? Been a while since i have seen it but that will give some real clues to how powerful trek weapons rather then some numbers that seem to keep going up. I bet the have a video some place on youtube or something.

For the sake of comparison can we not use the isotons? Or at least use the conversions. According to what i found its about 2.6 megatons for an isoton. So it sounds like a 65-130 megatons for the torpedos in star trek. A UNSC shiva nuke is about 80 (correct me if I am wrong). I do believe the planet thing was some to the effect of tuvoc (forgive my spelling) in voyager asking what are we going to do blow up a small planet? I don't think they really

[quote]Too many halo fanboys for a serious debate[/quote] I am a bigger fan of star trek then I a halo. I do just feel that the covenaut fleet could whipe a federation fleet out (thats assuming they have the same number of ships). Now in the new star trek movie that romulan ship looks like something that could truely go toe to toe with a covenaunt cruiser, I beleive it was called the Narada. The did not show it but it single handly took out a fleet of 47 klingon warb

[quote who="mja5000" reply="3" id="2248230"]Just want to clear something up, a isoton is actually closer to Gigatons, not Megatons. P.S. I don't consider the Nova to be a feasible technology. Come on, 9 8 Megaton bombs (tops) creating a explosion with the same density as a neutron star. Total bull.[/quote] Do you have a source about the isotone? I can't find anything to officel. I know the number 2.6 and 2.7 megatons keeps coming up. (its kind of like the

Which enterprise are we talking about? Enterpise D is a galaxcy class star ship and far superior to the old constitution. class. I am sure the Enterprise D would be able to match covenaut. Not so sure about the older one. I don't think its shields would hold.

I know we are talking about how fast the covie weapons are how fast are ST phasers or there destructive power?

UNSC vs ST, I think I would go with star trek. The star trek weapons can do some pretty heavy damage to unshielded ships. I think the UNSC ships can damage star trek ships but I think it would kind of like the covenaunt with the federation having the upper hand. UNSC would need the numbers game to win. (other races likewise) Agaist covenaut, I think the federation is the underdog in ship to ship combat. Not only do they have large shielded capitals but

My vote still goes with flood over borg (depending on how it goes). The flood can creat more flood from a single host. The borg can not. So say the borg turn 3 people. The flood turn 3 people make more flood. Now this can go either way I guess. Remeber speices 8472? They had been kicking the borgs but until voyager found a way to hurt them. Perhaps agaist the flood it would turn out the same way.

[quote who="kyogre12" reply="21" id="2243404"] Quoting Homie1984, reply 20 Peg i agree.. Pegasus ist much more modern copared to galactica... it should be the strongest battlestar... Its true that in the series galactica seems to be able to handle a lot more punishment than the mercury. But the reason for that is that the galactica is the main ship in series, and Pegasus was destroyed because of the story.. I mean pegasus wasn't even real

How about the borg vs the flood? Okay lets say the borg meet the flood. The flood start taking over drones. As seen in halo 3 they do it very fast, faster then the a borg nanos. The question is can the nanons at some point overcome the drone that is not flood? Say they take over a few. The borg may or may not see the problem soon enought. We know the borg queen can destroy cubes that have a problem like seen in voyager. So in this case i

I don't see this microsoft thing being all that good. I think its only going to be good for games that well made just for it. At least with the Wii you can put converter some more standard games to work. This camera motion sensing thing just seems stupid to me.

I really enjoy this game. Its not really a 4x but it does have some of the 4x elements that makes this game so great. Its nice to finally have a RTS type game thats not just some C&C game with a different name.

Reply to Battlestar Galactica - Sins of the 13th Tribe v0.96 Released 2/13/10 in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Okay here is what I think about the battlestar damage. Up the other Battlestars damage a little and lower the galatics a little. A mecurys class has a lot of power in its front bank, so if possible make that front bank more powerful, but don't touch the others to much In a galatica vs mecury battle, if a mercury gets its front guns locked on it should win, like wise galaticas broadside should be able to take a mecurys broadside.

Reply to Capital Ships in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Maybe then can increase armor and hull points maybe the amount of time it takes to repair? Some small changes that help keep them alive. I say keep the current level up the way it as. Add some research options to up capital armor effectiveness agaist weapons aboard say lrms and frigets. HC should be the capital ships worst enemey. It really is all about balance. The caps are kind of weak but I don't want to see them so powerful that frigets are a w

Reply to Battlestar Galactica - Sins of the 13th Tribe v0.96 Released 2/13/10 in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I thought pegasus aka mercury class battlestar had better armor then the galatica class, as well as more powerful guns. The galatica is more of a side shooter if it wants to open up with all those batteries mounted on the top. The mercurys power comes from the front end meaning its a smaller target when it facing its target. I would say every Battlestar should have the flak (which they do). I do feel that the frigets don't really do much except look ta

Reply to Capital Ships in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Some changes would be nice. It does get kind of boring seeing only the same caps, and also how few you see. How many do people really play with? I doubt 16 is reached very often. I would be nice to see more of them, and make them more worth the cost it takes to build them. As it stands now they are easy enought to destory that you don't see them to often. Unless you count the Marza. It puts out a enougt firepower that it does a lot of damage b

Capital Ships in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

There was a time when I thougth capitals where just to easy to kill and should be made more powerful. A capital agaist a bunch of smaller ships would get destroyed. I wanted that list ditch cap the AI makes to mean something. I have been playing the BSG mod and have decided that deleivers just what I want. That last ditch cap is something the smaller ships should stay away from. It could hold its own, well unless it trys taking on another cap of course.<

I do like how you kind of need a capital to take a on a fleet with a capital. It works well with this mod being that BSG. It feels like a captial, however, with that said I am glad its just in this mod and not the regular sins.

I think 75% is to much. Maybe 50% would be fine but that may be to much as well. I have not really played the 1.02 entrenchment, just used it for the BSG mod.

Been playing some more of it. I really do like how powerful teh battlestars are. A battle star can take on two bayships I think. Or at least in the game I played I was able to fight of two bayships, at about the same level. I had to bring in another battlestar to kill them but it held its own long enought for me to build its back up.

Does thsi effect bombers as well as fighters? I thought the bombers was under used while the fighter over used. When did the build rate change? I am not sure I like the idea of having that much of a build rate penitaly. A small one would have been okay but it sounds like the jumped the gun.
