the eclipse is larger volume wise, but not length wise

Hmm, so this leviathan is not all "mortals abandon hope" like as in the empire's resirection comic. Good to have pointed this out, thanks!

Re: Imperial Star Destroyer (WIP)
This vessel was said t inspire fear and dispair in the comic, yet it's less long than an executor... I simply find this curious.

You mean 17.5km isn't enough to inspire fear and despair? A nuclear tipped ICBM is only around 20m long and yet they succeeded admirably at both fear and despair at certain times during the cold war.

True, but I find the executor to be more awe-inspiring: If it wasn't for the superlaser of the eclipse, then...
Also, is the armour of an eclipse stronger than the executor? This thing supposedly rammed ships without damage.

Re: Imperial Star Destroyer (WIP)
The Eclipse is slightly shorter than an Executor.  It's a helluva lot bigger in every other way though, remember that.  Besides, the Eclipse was designed to inspire fear and terror, the Executor was too, remember?  They were both designed around the same time as well.

Re: Imperial Star Destroyer (WIP)
regardless, for me the executor is sexier. it's kinda like, comparing an el camino to one of those classic mustangs...

IDK anything about the design, but if they sacrificed some interior room you could have KILOMETERS of thick armor reinforcement.

I don't think many ships would handle being rammed by a giant solid chisel (taking minimal to no real damage itself). Oh and it has a DSL to boot...  :lol:

What does high speed internet have to do with either ramming OR footwear?

Re: Imperial Star Destroyer (WIP)
I just recalled the back of the "forces of corruption" star wars game: You could see a fleet of ISDs, an executor in the background, and something elso far darkier (an eclipse) behind the executor. The eclipse seemed larger than the exec, but of course I could be wrong.

their executor is about 1/3 normal size if not less.

you can only really use Star Wars games from before '99 for any sort of reference.  they just seemed to stop caring then.

You know, when I first read that sentence, I didn't think of it being possibly intended any other way.  Only reading your response did it even occur to me he might have meant the executor was the mustang.  Frakkin pony cars.

The original wasn't finished.  I had to restart due to some complexities in the model that I couldn't continue with on the old one.
