[QUOTE]Originally posted by Nimrod: [QB] No, they come from the same source. Putting five single fire launchers together is like reverting to old sailship cannons. There must be ways of building revolving magazines or something to make deployment faster. Timo: Your criteria for battleship status is a bit high, I think. Firstly, battlecruisers have even been known to be as small as the old K'Tingas. If the range of battlecruiser sizes can vary so, why couldn't that of battleships? If I may compare with WWII battleships, the italian Vittorio class and the US South Dakota class were both much smaller and lighter ships than the Iowa class or Yamato class, but they were all battleships. And the considerable size/mass difference between the Vor'Cha and the Negh'Var is IMO well enough to grant the Negh battleship status. It's also a very slow ship, indicating that they rather rely on shielding, armor and strong weapons than impulse engines. Despite the fact that the mirror Defiant had stronger phasers than any contemporary ship that ever took on the emperor's flagship, other ships of the same size has fared worse, for instance the romulan D'Deridex. One of those got whammed pretty good when strafing the cardassian sentry gun network. It didn't look at all harmed just prior to the final volleys that made it lose stabilizers and start spinning out of control. [/QB][/QUOTE]
