I never set the standards for the capital class vessels, I probably read
some other place where the standard for capital class vessels were one
hundred studs in length so I never argued and furthermore, before joining
Lugnet, I never had any type of standards for space craft so I just
basically built what I felt like building so if the standards are true, then
I have built a (small) capital vessel for my Nomadic Empire.  If a person
saw an eighty three stud long vessel with ten Insectoid cannons and a
satellite cannon in addition to several other weapons, they would think
twice before fighting that particular vessel.

Maybe if I could obtain a copy of LDraw today (Wednesday), then I can show
you (roughly) what my vessels look like to you.

(...) I actually do see the corvettes that I built as more of a sub capital size, but regardless of this "100 stud long" standard that you have refered to, I officially go by Jon Palmer's standard on the Galactic Shipyard. 75 studs minimum, either (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.space)
