Re: OT- Favorite Sci Fi Ship?
it may be a cheese wedge, but its impressive in a monolithic sort of way. the big black rectangles managed to look impressive in 2010. its just sort of daunting.
some really cool capital ships are to be found in the warships section of BattleTech Technical Readout: 2027, the one on lost starleague technology. I think the newer ships look like ***, but Loose's old artwork was top notch. there are also some sweet fighter designs strewn about various battletech books.
another cool fighter, were the ones flown by the big-blue-neohumans in that short lived animated saturday morning show where the humans were over thrown by their own genetic creations and were fighting a guerilla war against them from the moons of jupitor in these powered suits. the Cap ships in that serise were not bad either. what was its name? the only guys name I remember was Bronskie, who at one time was heard to say "Theres nothing like making sure!" after truely overkilling a neohuman. YES! a saturday morning cartoon that glorified war and violence, no wonder it was short lived. i dont think anyone even died in GI JOE, the sensitivity trained wusses.
