And the bigger ships like the Death Star, Super Star Destroyer, etc, are all here!

Re: OT: Starship size comparisons 1 pixel per meter
Wow, an Imperial Star Destroyer is really big.
What's up with that Romulan Warbird or Deridex or something? Isn't it too big?
I don't remember them to be that big in Bridge Kommander.

Re: OT: Starship size comparisons 1 pixel per meter
Is it there any chance that the kts in SE4 may be also taken as the lenght?
If a 500 kt Cruiser would also be 500m long, then we would be closer to sci-fi mainstream......
