A Cobalt is probably bigger than the Black Sun project.

Nah, well so far yes but all I've got on it is the power core.

Black Sun will be massive. Not as massive as this, but yeah.

I did. I looked at a scout frigate, it had at least 10 stories. That is a scout. Imagine the metal those astroids have to produce!

Also, look at missiles. They are at least the size of your house.

Frigate vs Capital Ship is hardly fair, I should think. Do a 1-1 with a light frigate.

I wasnt really pitting them against each other, just giving some way of finding out how large they actually are.

Still, a frigate is 10 stories or so.

Which begs the question, how big is the biggest of the big?

In that game, I really need a way to fly a fighter.

It's times like this when I realize that this is what we will be doing in futurecraft. Anybody know if Schematics are compatible with Cubic Chunks? Otherwise my Shipyard Plan and the Shield of Aiur need rethinking.

Well the capital ships are pretty much the biggest, until Rebellion, at least. Then we get to compare to the Titan ships but I'm afraid my minecraft frigate won't even be visible next to it.

Well, the Titans have a jump window bigger than some planets.... I'd assume they're similarly scaled ('cause Pat hasn't shown us one yet :/ )

I have the video, I just need to compress it then upload it to youtube or something.

Am I legally allowed to upload beta footage to youtube? e_O

Anyone know a good video compression program?

Look in the TOS. Sometimes there's a section in there for this sort of thing; EA can sue their testers if they leak, no clue how Stardock does these things.

Because of my lack of military success in that last 2v2, I now have to take on two hard comps by myself to prove to myself that I have not become a drooling moron.

Good luck. I'm playing a me vs 5 normal AI game right now as Advent on the seven-star variant of Systems of War, and so far (as Advent) I appear to be kicking major ass.

That changes quickly, though.
