This is too big a list for a poll. so just state your favourite capital ship and why.
My favourite is the Sith Interdictor Cruiser, because I love KOTOR. It looks cool as well.

Hmmmm I like the Eclipse. but it certainly has it's weaknesses(big target, slow, blown up by it's owner). I think that i would go with the Imperial Star Destroyer. It inspired fear anywhere it went, could be mass produced and just looks damn cool. It may be boring but hey. Second, the New Republic Star Destroyer, because, you know, it's awesome.

I'll say either Imperial Star Destroyer or Venator Star Destroyer. both are good.

The Venator. when i saw Petro's Venator model in that campaign mission with the ZC my heart sunk at how bad
Petro made it. 2 lasers, 2 concs, 2 ion cannons. a disgrace.

The Venator Star Destroyer. It looks awesome, particularly in the red livery. Didnt the ISD have something like 28,000 design flaws?

Meyer · « **Reply #5 on:** April 07, 2008, 07:12:37 AM »

some rebel technician said so. but I doubt it is that high. It would be stupid to mass produce a ship design with that many flaws.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #6 on:** April 07, 2008, 07:46:12 AM »

isn't that a pretty dumb thing for a reb technician to say? then mon cals will underestiate them and get annihilated by thinking they are flawed ships. pretty bad propaganda. you don't want the armies to act less efficiently.

Slornie · « **Reply #7 on:** April 07, 2008, 08:02:25 AM »

Oh, apparently the Alliance technician said it had 174,000 flaws.

Considering their huge size and complexity, i think its quite feasible for them to have that many flaws. I mean, they dont have to be huge flaws like the DSI exhaust port - It could just be tiny flaws in circuit design.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #8 on:** April 07, 2008, 08:05:47 AM »

I guess the Empire didn't flawless ships. They had a huge supply of credits, and if one ISD was destroyed, it was no big deal. They could just build another two in it's place. However, that the first Death Star had such a flaw...

Meyer · « **Reply #9 on:** April 07, 2008, 08:51:13 AM »

174,000 flaws! those has to be small ones. otherwise the ship would be quite useless. Ship that is 1600 meters long that would mean 1 flaw per 0,0092 meters. I wonder why they were never corrected? they sure had time. Or maybe that flaw number is for the first ISDs produced and then corrected in later models.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #10 on:** April 07, 2008, 08:53:43 AM »

out of question, what were ISDs called under the new republic? were they Imperators, again?

Meyer · « **Reply #11 on:** April 07, 2008, 09:28:00 AM »

guess. I haven't heard that their name would be changed at some point.

Slornie · « **Reply #12 on:** April 07, 2008, 10:26:16 AM »

I think they were still called Imperial Star Destroyers.

Isamu · « **Reply #13 on:** April 07, 2008, 06:34:17 PM »

Yea ISD's have been made more and more advanced as time goes on, but they are still called star destroyers.

Dane Kiet · « **Reply #14 on:** April 07, 2008, 08:58:23 PM »

I have to say either ISDs or MC90s.

My favourite by far is the Venator. When Revenge of the Sith starts (the movie of course) and you see the two fighters flying over it; I went nuts at how good it looked.

grandadmiralbeck · « **Reply #16 on:** April 08, 2008, 12:38:07 AM »

huh i just watched that movie today,(it was on spike tv) and i noticed how good it looked. i agree, however im sure if star destroyers were in episode 3, they would have looked really cool too.

Meyer · « **Reply #17 on:** April 08, 2008, 01:13:41 AM »

It seems that Venator is quite popular.

grandadmiralbeck · « **Reply #18 on:** April 08, 2008, 01:52:53 AM »

well in terms of firepower the venator wasnt that great, and it really isnt all that amazing. i think most people like it becase it was in revenge of the sith, where all the special effects looked amazing.

Meyer · « **Reply #19 on:** April 08, 2008, 01:59:13 AM »

I also like it's looks. and don't mean that it looks so real with effects but just the shape and all. and the amount of fighters it can carry it is a formidable opponent.
