No, I seriously havn't heard of most of these things you are talking about - keep in mind that those of us without Sky/cable in the UK only have 5 tv channels which limit your SF viewing choice to Farscape and Startrek at the moment. They have stopped showing Babylon 5<hr></blockquote>


you are still most likely right about me watching to much sci-fi. Galactic Heros was an animated TV serise that ran in the 70s, if i recall correctly. you might be able to find episodes at comic stores or anime clubs. Reha Gall force was a Japanese anime from the 80s. I presume you know about wing commander, and G-Police was a Playstation game that was ported to the PC. it had a intro movie featuring a cool looking warship, but in the game its self you just flew police fighters inside of a domed city.

Wow, Ulysses 31's fighter - now that is a bLast from the past - wasn't it round like a 'little green man' flying saucer?

Re: OT- Favorite Sci Fi Ship?
 

Yes, http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif and it had several modular components depending on the mission. My favourite is the one for atmospheric flight, with a sharp front and a big back with huge engines. Really cool! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

My favorite Sci-Fi ship is the "Dark Star" from the John Carpenter movie. Not really because of the design, but because of the nifty bombs that it carries http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif .

It has to be the USS Defiant from Star Trek. Sleek, fast, handy ship designed for war - you can attack and run while the slow dreadnought attempts to catch up. Love it when the phaser bank and quantum torpedoes fire simultaneously.

Re: OT- Favorite Sci Fi Ship?
 

Ah, the Dark Star bomb.


Let there be light.

Re: OT- Favorite Sci Fi Ship?
 

I have a lot of favorite ships... For me, I look at the starship design and purpose.

From Startrek...

Enterprise-B
Enterprise-C
Enterprise-D
Constellation Class
Nebula Class
Doomsday Machine

From Starwars
Anything MonCalamari Made

Babylon 5
Earth Alliance ships

Others
Farscape shuttle is a nice development
Moya
Asguard Ships

Then, of course, my all time favorite...
UMV Monitor 396 & Dauntless 405

Re: OT- Favorite Sci Fi Ship?
 

I guess my favorite sci-fi ships are:

USS Defiant (Star Trek)
Nebula Class (Star Trek)
Akira Class (Star Trek)
USEA Protector (Galaxy Quest)

I'm sure there's a few more I just can't think of them right now...

Re: OT- Favorite Sci Fi Ship?
 

anyone ever see the old Space 2085 cartoon (from 1985)? they had some OK ships. how about the Homeworld game? I did not like their large ships very much, but their medium and small sized ones were really neat.
