The whole two-parties-to-rule-them-all thing is just dumb. There are more than two ways to go at a given problem, but only the ones at the farthest extremes from each other are ever paid any attention to.

...Anyhow, opening the Fort. RWBY, DBZA, other, the usual spiel.

i care but i'm restless, i'm here but i'm really gone, i'm wrong and i'm sorry, baby

welli for one think spaceships shaped like swords are very cool, and dislike the use of the word apocalypse as: end of the world, it meant something completely different back in the day.

No, spaceships shaped like swords are stupid, because someone is going to make a gigantic (spaceship wise) ship and wield yours against your own fleet.

I really don't think a spaceship shaped like a sword would have the structural integrity to be used as a sword.

Like, if your sword-ship had enough structural integrity not to buckle and collapse under its own inerta, let alone hitting other ships, your other ships would have the same amount of integrity, and would basically brush off being hit by the sword ship.

Think of hitting a sword onto an iron ball. The sword would warp or break, and the ball would maybe get scratched or something.

Space-wise, a slight amount of damage to the spaceship's structure carries a pretty big chance of all the oxygen rushing out and you dying.

So, yeah.

EDIT: I suppose that if you made a gigantic (spaceship wise) robot you could probably just crush the other ships without a sword.

That's what bulkheads are for.

Bulkheads are made for sucking oxygen out of spacecraft?

#341063: Jul 4th 2015 at 8:33:11 PM

Bulkheads are structural devices on ships to prevent them from flooding.

I'm sure they would work the other way, too.

I don't think that watercraft schematics can translate effectively to spacecrafts.

Bulkheads would still work, they're designed to stop the passage of fluid between the outside and inside of a ship.

Whether it's water or air doesn't really matter.

Granted, we don't really have that level of technology, but maybe someday.

and black holes are the icebergs of space, and also other objects, but that's variable in the ships strength, size, etc, black holes, always death following collision.

You ever notice that mushrooms have an exact almost 0% resemblance with a human penis?

Coincidence? I think so!
