Watch out Rounds, Hades could be fooling us with a perspective effect ;).

EDIT: I'm still willing to bet with any of you that the 10-12 figure might actually be more spot on than the 4-6 figure that people have claimed to in here.

'scuse me, what makes the Hades any more useful than the Colossus?

I've FREDed them plenty of times as foes and the Colly never does as it well as it should, going by armament. Besides the Hades is way cooler and in a discussion with as much merit as this that's all that matters. :) It's also smaller for a disproportionately high amount of hitpoints.

I would've thought the Colossus would be the one with far less mass to volume than the Lucy.

we are equating mass with volume here, since otherwise it could range anywhere and it would spoil the fun

lolwut? If the Lucy was mostly empty you could just crush it up to match the Colly's density and stick however many in there (this is assuming the Colly is more dense as in more mass to volume). The tech vid is too ambiguous really, regardless of mass/volume etc. I doubt you'd fit 12 in there.

We're getting dangerously close to a full on physics brawl, we better leave it before this place gets maths-nuked by Herra and The E.

No what I said here was that I'm ignoring any ratio between mass and volume and assuming it is equal for both ships.

I think so too. It's easier if you look at the position of the Lucifer relative to the FRED grid, then look at where those grid lines end up on the Colossus. Still looks nowhere near 10-12 though.

Righto fair enough then, but if they're equal then there's just no way in hell you'd fit a full 12 Lucys into one Colly, just looking at the pic.

pics deceive you. When I look into both their volumes (or someone ninja's me in it) in PCS2 or smth then we might make a simple calculation there and see who's right.

If we had a really, really big measuring cylinder we could stick them both in and see how much water they displace.

Or you could just use the volume check function in any model viewer....

Can't have infinite Lokis without Hades.

Although given his projects, I wonder if they're actually Loki Primes.

Maybe the Colossus's model was really intended to be much much larger but they got lazy?

 
Its pivot point must be at what was originally planned to be the model's center.

EDIT: Oh, uh, Durgas. They're cool and all.

:jaw:
If that's the center, dear sweet baby Jesus, the whole thing would have been HUGE.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.
