Erm, ok, first of all, "Angry Marines" are a fanon space marine chapter and are no more powerful or dangerous than any other chapter, so I'm not really getting your point there.JamesStone said:Those things versus Angry Marines.

I enjoy the design for its aesthetics but I cannot say I like it for its flair or use, cause I don't even understand how that thing flies >.>Vampire cat said:

Speaking of humble, we've got the Executioner from EVE Online. Small, agile little frigate with a lot of pluck. Don't mess with space-bananas.

I must have a thing for "beat-upish" looking ships because the Bebop and Serenity are my favourites.Troublesome Lagomorph said:I'd so live on the Bebop.

Oh, no. I'm not Critizing. Do not know where you got that ideia from. I just commented because of the Demotivational poster, considering I find unfair to compare the frigate Class Ha'taks with THAT overcompensational monstrosity. And true, the Angry Marines are a fanon chapter, that part was simply a joke. However, if you look for more "serious" Fanon, you'll find some cool stories about them that aren't complete idiocracies, and DoW II mods include a special angry marines campaign, that I found to be the sweetest thing I ever played. But that doesn't matter. It was a joke. But if you are overanalyzing it, the Angry Marines, by the established Fanon, are "stronger, faster, more durable and more insanely furious" than any other Chapter. They are known to be able to decimate entire starsystems without superweapons, and even Ultra Marines are scrubs compared to them. But it doesn't matter. BECAUSE IT WAS A JOKE. Also, I only replied twice because I got mistaken and quoted someone else on accident.Hawk of Battle said:Erm, ok, first of all, "Angry Marines" are a fanon space marine chapter and are no more powerful or dangerous than any other chapter, so I'm not really getting your point there.JamesStone said:Those things versus Angry Marines.

As for Anubis, really? That ship took part in what, 2 on screen battles? "Every ship in space" is a bit much seeing as it only ever fought crappy Ha'Taks. It was a glorified Ha'Tak, that was only ever used against run of the mill Ha'Taks with grossly inferior tech to anything in 40K. Imperium ships are layered with void shields and hurl building sized projectiles at each other and battles last for hours. Even Goa'uld tech enhanced with Ancient knowledge wouldn't be able to last that long, especially considering power constraints like ZPMs (which Anubis never had) and which even full blown Ancient tech had a problem with.
Ori; might put up a fight, but their main weapons are essentially the SG verse equivilent of lance batteries, which Imperium ships have in droves. They'd likely kill frigates and such easily, but against Retribution class and Battle Barges they'd struggle.
You also mentioned the Deathstar in your other post (why exactly did you need to make 2 consecutive posts to critiscise mine again?), and really, what? You want to compare standard 5km long 40k warships, to a 270km long superweapon? Erm, ok. In that case maybe I should introduce you to a Blackstone Fortress or 6? Each one can destroy planets, is near indestructable (based on even more powerful and ancient alien tech)and when combined they get more powerful, up to and including being able to destroy stars and beyond.
