Violence and Bloodshed

Squizzle posted:

the best b5 ship was ofc this baby



here is why it is the best:
  • flying saucer
  • only weapon is apparently hot shards of glass that do not seem to have great range or precision
  • weapon is fired from the exact center of the largest profile the ship can present
  • only feasible space fight technique is to run up super fast at the other ship to get close, rotate around to show them the biggest target possible, then spray hot glass at them really hard

what a fuckin champion

I completely understand where you are coming from, but maybe apart from the human designs, none of the spacecraft are designed for realistic space combat. Realistic space combat happens at extreme ranges probably between armoured space submarines with high precision relativistic weaponry (also hyperspace cruise missiles).

Came to post Lexx but will have to settle for this iconic contribution:

Not sure how many people are old enough to remember this. Such a simple yet great design.
