Title: A matter of scale...

You guys may have already seen this elsewhere, but I thought it pretty awesome and worth showing again.

This image shows all of the player-fly able ships side by side to scale:

I'll tell you something, that Reclaimer is so big it's going to be pretty "safe" by default, no random passing pirate is going to take you down that's for sure, it's going to take a hell of a lot of ordnance to stop that thing !

It's a great grey box scale reference, but it would be nice ot have the other known ships added.   I'd love to see a Banu Merchantman and a Starfarer on there for example, or a Caterpillar etc.    Better than nothing though and a nice reminder of scale :thumbsup:

I don't know who it is who keeps producing these, but I'm sure as soon as those ships are in-engine, they'll add them to the lineup...can't wait, personally!

I must be going blind.   The vertical one in the middle, where?   I see both the 'vertical' Xi'an concept ship bottom left, but not one in the middle?  If it is bottom left then the scale is totally out of whack as the Khartu-Al is not the size of either of them.  

I recall seeing this graphic a very long time back, but a lot of redesign and resizing has gone on since then.   A lot of it is correctly referenced, but things like the Idris still being described as a corvette instead of a frigate show it is not a complete update, but at least the Idris length appears to have been updated correctly.

Yeah it's going to be a bit of a come down when we all pop through a Jump Point in convoy, an Idris with full fighter compliment, a couple of Retaliators, s Starfarer for keeping us all fueled, a Reclaimer or two to tidy up after us, a few Avengers & Cutlass Blues to carry our detainees, and come face to face with that Vanduul Kingship !! We'll be needing a Connie Taurus full of spare pants ! :crying:
