Too bad NatalyaAF isn't a dimmy, she would have already won if she could enter the contest.

Well, you could have said "Brikwarriors". I would rather not think of myself as a Dimmy OR a Fleebnork.

Yea, but you ARE a dimmy.

I don't think I have enough pieces to make a gigantic capital ship for this contest.

I've never really like building large space ships. I have the pieces, but only half of them are sorted and I just started sorting again. I could pace some massive Bricklink orders, but I don't really want to.

Mebbe later.

does a micro-scale ship count?

Hey, fleebnork's are deadly.
get them in a good cranny of an opposing vehicle for one turn, and your opponent is screwed.

Nice apostrophe there, my floppy penis.

Also, nice apostrophe is the topic title, james+burgundy.

Game Over, I win.

Secondly:

Neither the Dragon Star nor my Assyrian Corvette are capital ships. The Dragon Star is a light destroyer, and the Longinus class is a Corvette. They are both too small to be considered capital ships. Capital ships are like Battle Cruisers, Carriers, and Heavy Destroyers. Here are some examples:

First we have the Asmodeus which is probably the smallest you can get and still call it a capital ship. At 216 studs long this vessle is a Destroyer, bordering on Light Destroyer.

Here is the Tribunal:

Although not a war ship, this one is large enough to be worthy of being called a capital ship.


Gibralter:

Also made by Daniel Jassim, this light carrier could be considered a capital ship.
