Seriously, it's cash. Anything by Turtledove will make you think a ton.

Ah very well my good chaps. Should I grab a towel? I do hope booze pills work even better than lager as you see I can drink narry a thimble of the stuff.

is every 7channer but me a scifi nerd? this really the fastest board on the site? D: ,

wouldnt the Death Star need time to recharge again before it choose another target?

there seems to be some time between its shots when the second one was hitting the rebel fleet in episode 6

My bet goes on the deathstar.

Assuming they are hostile to each other from the very start and fight head to head the deathstar fires it's main weapon and the cube is gone. The cube wouldn't have a chance. Of course a second cube might adapt its shields to compensate but there's still the issue of the raw power of a weapon designed to annihilate planets hitting a ship a few Km across.

Now if the cube attacked the star unexpectedly it could warp into the main weapons blind spot (which is quiet large), adapt it's shields after the first few volleys of blaster fire and go to town on the thing with it's superior manoeuvrability and impervious shields.

I won't go into the Drones Vs Vader thing as I'm talking pure ship to ship combat...

cmon, the lowly Rebels blew up two of them.

I could never watch the Enterprise opening and not help thinking "eh, Planetes did it better". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMoQ1oU8W2w&fmt=22

then you'll be happy to know that Paramount executives had a firm "no homo" policy for Star Trek and kybosh any scripts depicting it.
In the future your kind has been cured.

Enterprise was an abomination and whoever worked on it should be curb stomped and thrown in a wood chipper............except for that vulcan chick because she was hot (so hot that it made her character lame)

Hard SF - Greg Egan: Schild's Ladder, Diaspora, Incandescence
Bruce Sterling: Schismatrix Plus, though it's more character based rather than concept based.

Go hard, brother.

Stanislaw Lem - for hard sci-fi try "The Invincible", or "Fiasco"
For fucked up time travel try some of the short stories in his "Star Diaries". Although those aren´t intented to be taken absolutely serious.

screw Ro , lets get the cool bajorans in here.

>>1841
i dont see any cool bajorans in that picture

>>1841
Bajorans suck balls....except for Ro

The show pretty much sucks. I followed through to the latest episode (8, i think?) and it had a good start, true, but afterward, the show become more and more boring. They need to spice it up somehow.

im still stuck somewhere in season 3 of BSG.
when its good its really good for but a lot of episodes are just so boring.

I would do that chubby teacher HARD.

Wankerface.

If you name your ship something trying to be cool, the best you can do is set yourself up for failure.

Name your ship Wankerface, everybody wins.

Book 4 was the only one i'd consider bad, at least of the ones Herbert actually wrote. I've heard the ones by his son is a whole new species of awful.

one of the best books I ever read, if not the best
lynchs movie was differnet but great nonetheless
the mini-series was awful

if you want to read something similar try shadow of the torturer
the autor gene wolfe and frank herbert even were pals

Dune the movie was all time classic...TONS of cool lines "He who controls the spice....."
