If you could have any space ship what would it be?

[Pinback]

I'm a bit biased though since the devs of the mod named it after me Failing that, I was always fond of the Victory class Star Destroyers from Star Wars.

Fixed your pic.That looks like it would give my battleship Yotomato a run for it's money.

Very nice which game is from. talking about starship scales this a grat site for that.http://www.merzo.net/

I want to say that ship is from the Planetfall mod for UT3.That's a cool site Pinback. I might add that link to a misc section in the links area when I get around to redoing it.

No question. The TARDIS. Everything else is a wagon. Though, some might say it is not technically a space ship...

[sscadmin]

Been soooo long since I have seen any Dr. Who. Think the last time I saw an episode was with Tom Baker when I was a kid. But if I remember correctly Cambragol the Tardis doesn't have any weapons and is lightly armored. But I did like the fact that it has almost unlimited space on the inside

[Cambragol]

Actually, it is technically not in our dimension, so from the perspective of this dimension it is impervious to any damage. Yah, it doesn't have any weapons, but it can time travel! That beats any weapon. And the unlimited space on the inside is great.

Hey, you're talking about my favourite space vessel!There is no better space-faring ship than the Tardis. PERIOD. Mysteriously sentient, indestructible (except to imperial Dalek technology) infinitely configurable, immensely powerful...it's really the ultimate. "The most powerful spaceship in the universe", as the Doctor himself called it. I believe him.

For me:

X3-ArgonNova-1 - - Tekagi's Treasure ModWith the right set up, this ship is awesome!

[sscadmin]

HunterKillerNice ship. The detail on that model is quite nice, who made that model?

I had to laugh at the picture of DarkStar One! That was such a funny movie... time dilation from near-light-speed turning a 5-year mission into 20 years and everyone going crazy from boredom. (Even Bomb 20!)My favorite would have to be the Millenium Falcon. It's not the looks so much (although I get a kick out of the fact that it looks a little like a flying saucer). It has speed, maneuverability, guns, and cargo space -- ideal for smuggling. She may not be the best at any one thing, but her versatility makes her the perfect freelancer's ship.B

I'll go with Sovereign, from Mass Effect...Who's gonna mess with Sovereign? Bonus, it has the power to "upgrade" its captain (you gotta play the game, I won't give it away). But I'll take it without the mind controlling bit. Let me see if I can't find a good pic...Read 'em & weep boys:

[Shant]

I take it back, maybe this baby can mess with Sovereign:Surprised nobody mentioned her already. And Nero said she was just a simple mining vessel from his time...imagine what their battleships are like!

[Geraldine]

So difficult to choose from! think B5 Ships were cooler though <img src="'[url]http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_cool.gif[/url] class='bbc_emoticon' alt='8-)' />

Oh, THAT "Pinback"!I see that the original Sgt Pinback (Dan O'Bannon) died a couple of days ago. I was surprised to learn that O'Bannon (Alien, Total Recall) worked with John Carpenter (Starman, Big Trouble in Little China, Return from L.A., Halloween) to make Dark Star when they were at film school at USC. I was even more surprised that they won the equivalent of a Saturn Award for Best Special Effects with their beach-ball alien: What a classic film.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Star_%28film%29

What in God's name?! AHAHAHA!!!

:)Oh, yeah... it's definitely a classic. As I said before, I would never call Dark Star a great movie, but it has elements that are very creative and funny. The movie is about a small team (maybe five?) on a five-year mission to find and destroy unstable planets that could interfere with future colonization. Their ship, the Dark Star, travels at near-light-speed and experiences time dilation so that twenty years pass for the crew. The only feminine influence is the voice of the ship's computer who calls the crew "boys" when she wants to tell them something. Boredom sets in and they all start to get a little bit stir-crazy... even Bomb 20, another talking AI, who gets a little messed up from being pelted by twenty years of solar wind.If you're a bittorrent kind of guy, you can find it here:http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/3996611/Dark_Star_Avi.
