[ARCHIVED THREAD] - what's your favorite capital warship. in space. (Page 1 of 4)

Posted: 8/5/2016 6:17:15 PM EDT

Must be a named ship in a movie, TV or video game. Not some anonymous background red shirt star destroyer.

Warship, no firefly class or Corellian freighters.

Federation ships, while not designated "warships" are fair game, if armed with Photon torpedoes and phasers.

Defiant not eligible, is not a capital ship.

Mine?

1. BSG Reboot Galactica.

2. Yamato of Star Destroyers fame.

3. Klingon Battle Cruiser. Bortas.

I really favor the Galactica; both original and reimagined.

If it has to be named, then the super star destroyer executor. ..

Reboot Galactica, then original Galactica.

Came to post this. But also add the, Annihilator, Ravager and Eclipse Super Star Destroyers.

Oh yeah, I also liked the TCS Tiger's Claw CV-07 (not from Star Wars).

Does a Berserker count as a capital ship?

If not, then the TCS Concordia.

Neblon B were always badasses in every SW fanfic, book and game - not particularly eventful in any of the movies though

I hated when one would show up in TIE Fighter.

A simple, run of the fleet Imperial Star Destroyer.

ISD Avenger

Enough firepower to pummel you from orbit, or it can land ground troops with AT-AT's.

I really wish that Blood and Chrome had made it into a series, I would have loved to have seen Galactica bringing the pain in her prime.

Blakes 7 Liberator of course

Of course Galactica must be included, but as usual GD is full of SCI FI amatuers.
