I like spaceships

By Smutpedler, in X-Wing

Another fighter I like are the ones from the Enders Game movie. The thrust vectoring side engines made them seem more believable. Granted, we don't see much of them.

OOOOOh the ones from The Expanse.

A TV show that actually deals with real-physics space combat semi-properly is SO refreshing.

And for the exact opposite view, the ones from Battlefleet Gothic. Ramming giant weaponised eagle-cathedrals with giant weaponised meteors. Yeah.

I was gonna make a "DEATH BLOSSOM is OP" joke, but I'm too caught up in nostalgia for the Last Starfighter. Think FFG could sneak it in?

I'm sure it would fit in right beside the B-wing DEATH LASER OF DOOM.

Space above and beyond? (Nipple necks?)

How about Halo? The Pillar of Autumn , the Amber Clad , Pelicans, Longswords, Broadswords, Covenant ships, Forerunner ships.... I think I've named enough.

We totally need a big stone Zardoz head. It is good for transporting grain, guns, and moustached stow-aways.

Do you know who also likes spaceships?

RIP Prometheus. Your loss was a punch to the gut and I never recovered. The 304 can never replace you.

This is a gross understatement. They can reach temperatures as low as 2.7 kelvin.

Yeah.
