The covenant supercarrier is larger than all of those.

Do you know what kind of hat I'm wearing?

A party hat; you don't get one. An honor will this party be, a party in your honor, for your honor. Some of Tfear's personal guards are going to be there. You'll be introduced shortly.

Prepare to die.

Even bigger that the death star?
Never mind, I remembered that the death star is a space station.

The Supercarrier is dwarfed by the 100km Forerunner ships.

know what is amusing, the most powerful ship is the one in the middle, the 'tiny' ship that was created by Annorax in Star Trek. that would have no trouble wiping out a Covenant Super Carrier, just erase it from history. :-)

You were totally and absolutely correct in every way, I don't know why we were arguing, you're so amazing I should never have doubted you.

Nothing can out-badass a Fortress-class vessel besides a Halo.

Janeway would have something to say about that.

So, you're saying that 27 kilometers is big? What about 50-100 kilometers long Fortress-class Forerunner ships? That's a big ship if you ask me.

In my opinion High Charity also counts as a ship. Space stations are stationary. High Charity has a slipspace drive. So there you go, 348 kilometers long space ship.

problem is, Voyager was protected by 'plot-shields' in that episode, you cannot argue with a weapon that erases things from ever existing, it has no counter, hated that rubbish with 'temporal shields' and the traditional crap that came with it. was one of the episodes where they 'invented' an enemy weapon that couldn't be defeated without some crappy 'revelation' from the resident Borg!

actually same thing goes with the Borg, in The Next Generation they were formidable to say the least, in Voyager they are a mere annoyance and their ships fall apart like Lego, weird that!

Voyager time travel sucked balls.

Okay, that area of space? guess what? they had a -blam!--ton amount of information concerning it, including how to defend themselves from the get-go. Conveniently, all that data was erased from the computer a minute before they enter the area of space. (Aka, they completely ignored the previous episode.

Voyager had several writers, none of which seemed to actually consult each other.

Either way, that ship didn't make sense from the getgo.

to be honest, Voyager pretty much blows from the off. the Kazon are hilariously bad enemies, the Borg have became useless, Species 8472 are another impossible to beat creation destroyed by plot-guns! that tends to be the reason I prefer Halo and Battlestar Galactica over Star Trek.

Going off topic, but I found it -blam!- funny as hell at the start they go "Damn, we only have 40-some torpedoes, and no way to replace them. We'll have to be careful how we use them."

*later* "Fire torpedoes!" *Every time shown firing torpedoes, they firing at the least 2, at the most 5.*
