[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shipbuilder: [QB] Okay the warp pods aren't the same size as the GCS pods. Here's a quick proof for that. First off, lets assume the warp endcap area (everything forward of the gold rings including the bussard collector) is the same as that of a GCS because they almost certainly are in fact. Taking the AMT 18" Galaxy class model blueprints (because they were handy) I measured the total warp pod length = 5.5" and the pod endcap (bussard collector and everything forward of the gold rings) = .75". Therefore the endcap composes 13.5% of the total length. Next I roughly measured the New Orleans endcap in the above pic to be = .25" and the total warp pod length = 3", this means the NO endcap comprises only 8.3% of the total pod length......therefore, the NO warp pods are longer. Even if the endcaps are scaled down GCS versions, we can positively say that they just didn't scale down the entire GCS warp pod and stick it on. Regardless of its actual scale factor, it is a different version than that of the GCS warp pod. [/QB][/QUOTE]
