  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) Joe, Given the dimensions Adrian posted earlier, I'd say one of your graphics is the wrong size. He's got the ISD at 1600 meters, NCC1701D at 641 meters, just over 40% as long. James (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) Yep, you're right. I used the wrong ratio (which was mentioned in an earlier note in this thread), as opposed to the actual lengths. Oops. Jason Spears has redone and corrected this. And I a little chagrined:) Joe Meno (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)

  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) Hmm. Still wrong. A Victory Class Star Destroyer is only 900 meters. :) (URL) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?

(...) And, just for grins, here's one with a Super Star Destroyer, Star Destroyer, and NCC-1701D on one image, to approximate scale. (URL) I've got to go take my antigeekery meds. James (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)

a LEGO version of the super star destroyer at the same scale as the ISD would be like 24 feet long! Wouldn't that be awesome?!?!? _leni (...) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) Well, my latest post, responding to Jason, out-geeked all of ya! James, i'd recommend that you compare the pic in the link below to the schematic in your above link. It shows how horrible and off-scale "schematics" can be! (URL) why I don't (...) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?

  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) I have to admit it, I've been out-geeked. And on a subject I would never have thought of as controversial. Going home now to polish my pocket protector. It's lost some of its luster... James (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
Of course, the real comparison is between the ISD and a Borg Cube :) (URL) it's the comparison to make for a who would win debate ;) -Lucas Thompson (...) (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) No contest at all--the ISD was having problems capturing the little RBR... Borg would eat the ISD for breakfast-- "We are Borg--We now know about 'the Force'--Resistance is futile" ;) Dave K (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)

Hey guys, can we FUT this on to lugnet.off-topic.geek ? Just wonderin'. Not meanin' to offend anyone, but let's move it on over there. Chris <>< space. (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) Capturing without destroying is far harder than simply destroying, and they didn't have any problems at all. Remember the most of the shots fired were ion cannons not turbolasers. (...) I think you have that backwards. One heavy turbolaser (...) (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) Makes me wonder, though-- being that the Borg are a collective of actual living objects, ya gotta wonder if they were transplanted in the SW universe, whether they'd have *fantastic* Force powers. It's not really clear how the Force works, (...) (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: how large would the ISD be compared to the Enterprise-D?
 
(...) Interesting. Very, interesting. Then again the Borg never seem to take advantage of betazed telepathy or other "force-like" powers found in the Star Trek universe. Still it is an interesting concept that, like you said, we would really need to (...) (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
