@ Dino - Yeah, Perfect Grade is all new. I'm just saying that S-H's things that we have we consider them Perfect Grade since he's not here to upscale them and he never gave us any particular sizes or scale. Makes things easier all around.

@ Supe - Blah blah blah... technical, technical, technical... who really cares? Star Trek tech is totally different from Star Wars tech. And Babylon 5 Tech. And Lost in Space Tech. And Earth Star Voyager Tech. And Battlestar Galactica Tech. And Space Battleship Yamato Tech. And Robotech Tech. And Gundam Tech. And Eve Online Tech. And Star Craft Tech. And Dr. Who Tech. And Supreme Commander Tech. And Warhammer 40K Tech. And Halo Tech. Need I say more?

I say that arguments about tech unless something is needlessly OP is just wasting time.

[Andre TholvelCEO]

Right.

My bad, Dino, I didn't mean to make it an endless argument...

*desperately resists replying to your arguments*

MATURITY IS HARD. D:

xD

Right, then, ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE. *extends hand for handshake*

[Dino27Captain (PCG)]

It takes two people to argue, and I was 1.5 of them in this one




Well, we don't know.... it's a matter of 2 meters difference a stud... eh, it's an awesome ship either way....

*Desperately resists urge to say that you had no valid counter arguments, then realizes that you might *


*takes your hand, inserts Borg nanites into you, and assimilates you (JK) Takes your hand and shakes it.* I'm glad we can talk.

[Andre TholvelCEO]

Hey, I was resisting the same ur--BE MATURE, ANDREW, BE MATURE. D:

*meditates* Inner peeaaaaceeee....

Inner peeeeaaaccccce...




Inner peeeaaaaaccce...

YEP. xD

That's right, use your anger.    (JK)

Let's let it go, not because either of us is admitting to being wrong, but because we are respecting the purpose of the creation, and much more importantly, each other.  

[Andre TholvelCEO]

I'm not so much respecting the creation as respecting the fact that if we don't stop NOW, this will go on, and on, and turn into enormous essay posts, and not even stay on topic, until we're arguing about Christianity vs Catholicism or something. xD

BECAUSE THAT IS THE NATURE OF THE OVER-FILLED TEENAGE MIND.

[RememberMMRecruit (No Affiliation)]

...Christianity vs Catholicism...

Catholics ARE Christians, you know. Now if that were something like Protestantism vs Catholicism it would make a bit more sense...

On the topic (of impulse engines  ) Star Trek ships also have maneuvering thrusters mounted on such places as the saucer rim and warp nacelles. The red (or blue, occasionally) impulse engines are used to supply the main thrust, but aren't necessarily used for maneuvering.

Most Star Trek canon ships actually do have decent-sized impulse engines. The Ambassador-class is one exception to this...

That dark grey rectangle is the only impulse thruster on the entire 500+-meter-long ship.  

[Andre TholvelCEO]

RMM. WHY WOULD....WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT. D:

But yeah, that's what I meant, my bad.

And...but...I just said I wouldn't argue this... D:

[Dino27Captain (PCG)]

Yeah.... we're argumentative

[LonestarCaptain (PCG)]

Thanks again, J-red, for posting all of S-H's work! He was a master-builder for sure. Though not my favorite of his works, this ship was definitely one of the better ships on the Creation Lab.

[Star-HunterCEO]

Looking back, I'm honestly a little embarrassed by this one - the design itself was remarkably simple and lacked any substantial details. It was basically a giant rip-off of the Prometheus, built during a time when I simply felt like building another "giant ship".

As for scale etc, you really have to take its size with a grain of salt. It was designed to be massive relative to other ships of its time, not relative to an actual scale (since there was no standard back then). If I were to redesign the ship, it would probably receive a slight size increase (in addition to a slew of other things), but not much. Alas, that's a project for another day.

[JohnnyredCaptain (PCG)]

So... when did you get here, S-H?! Glad to see you around! Make a post in the Cadet Recruiting Office to let everyone know that you're here.

[Dino27Captain (PCG)]

DO MY EYES BETRAY ME?!?!?!?!?!?!??!? WHAT IS THIS SPECTRAL FIGURE THAT STANDS BEFORE ME?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? (salutes) ESSAYCH!!!!!!!! And those whom I never thought I would see again continue to come here.... Why I am still amazed to see legends of old arise from what I assumed to be permanent retirement, on a new site no less... I could say I do not know... but.... I do.

IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU!!!

[Star-HunterCEO]

Heh - was helping my baby bro set up his My Lego Network, he wanted to see my page, ended up following one of the modules back to the Creation Lab, saw Ant's comment, googled the site - and now I'm here.

Whether or not I'll actually be active is another matter, but if nothing else, I'm around and interested. Good to see some familiar faces.

[Dino27Captain (PCG)]

Hey, real life comes first, and if you've moved on to grander things... and let's face it... you've got the skill to be off engineering far more amazing things than digital plastic building block starships, ( ) but here to build to just to say hello.... it's good to have you here.

And JUST when I was saying that "we'll never know what scale he meant it to be because we will never see him again..."
hmmmm.... I ought to say that we'll never see some other LUCL builders again....

[JohnnyredCaptain (PCG)]

Yes. WE'LL NEVER SEE LEGOTRAIN, IANROBERT, SIRSQUID, FLIPZ, FARPLANET, CSF, JAMMAN, SLOOP, JARED, or LEGOALIENGUY AGAIN! OH AND BEEKY WILL NEVER BUILD AGAIN!

[Dino27Captain (PCG)]

Alas.... we will NEVER see any of them again. (Waits for them to appear.... Three weeks later, realizes it didn't work.)

[ForgeRecruit (No Affiliation)]

YES! IT DID WORK! I didn't think S-H would ever see that comment, BUT IT DID WORK! YES! Oh, and your baby bro did do something to help us out for once. Instead of deleting all your stuff, he ended up leading you to find us! (give him a hi-five/hug for me. )

[TalmidCommander (PCG)]

And Maguilacuddy will never write any more Mars Mission stories!

[ForgeRecruit (No Affiliation)]

I SECOND THAT!
Or build anymore Mars Mission things.
