Oh, no doubt the PARV took immense skill to build, I'm just think that with all the moving parts and Technic elements this is more complicated.

The PARP was a box on tracks. Yup, it was good, yup it was amazing and yup, I couldn't be bothered doing it. But this mobile city aircraft carrier thing has one major factor that leaves the PARP behind. IT IS GOB SMASHINGLY FUCKIN AWESOME. I'm sure that if we each had a completed PARP given to us we could Brikwars the livid hell out of it and give it some major weaponage BUT I think with the Mobile City we would do even better. It just looks so much better. The PARV is dead so stop your whining and nostagiafying and pay homage to the new Awesome.

The thing I loved most about the PARV was the modular rooms. All of the rooms could be removed and new ones on just a 16x16 baseplate could be stuck in there. It's such a great idea to make something like that in a large MOC.

But you can't which makes it lame as haven. I mean the thing looks like a duck with it being stilted so high up.
Been here longer then pretty much all of you or some shit.

Ducks on stilts? Are you sure you know what a duck looks like. Maybe your getting mixed up with a ducky. Say, doesn't your dad use stilts?

I would have to say that this is cooler, mostly due to the fact that it has it's own damn runway.

Nowhere near the same scale - but I reckon three or four of these could rip the PARV and this sucker to pieces . . .

Probably not. These two things probably have an armor of higher than 3d10 and they're also several feet long.

True - but have you ever heard of the theory of death by paper cuts? All you need to do is accumulate a lot of small damage in one high-priority place, and it'll go down.

Yea, you still need to do enough damage to get through the armor though, and enough ammunition to KEEP breaking the armor however many times to bring the Size down to 0.
