What is that ship anyway? A hive ship? It said so on the old site.

Can you give me  a bit more info on Gargant? How big is it? What weaponry does it carry? Is it bigger than the Gigas or the SJ. S.?
What is it's importance to the Shivans?

How come that no weapon in the GTVA can destroy it? Does it have shields or something? Is it protected by something else?

A hive ship

How big is it?
37.8km

What weaponry does it carry?
20 URed (Gigas forward cannon)

Is it bigger than the Gigas or the SJ. S.?
Gigas: 20km, Sath: about 5km

What is it's importance to the Shivans?
Sort of a flagship, a central point for the Shivans.

How come that no weapon in the GTVA can destroy it?
It has 250 times the HP of the Apoc. Guess why :D

Well, if you want to compare it to the Apoc, even with 250 times the hitpoints, it would still die. ;)

My ship is better!

No, mine is better!

No, mine!

Mine!

Mine!

* fight begins *

:D


This is just to show how this kind of argument just can't work. Anyone can make a huge ship with lots of hitpoints and weapons...
Probably away. Contact through email.

OK I think you are going too far now. It doesn't make any sence. The Gigas is about 20 km and correct me if i am wrong, it has 3 000 000 000 hit points. And SH is, say about 18 km longer, ok make it 2 times longer. Then how does it have 250 times more hitpoints? You will have to give a more logical explenation for this one? ;)

It doesn't make a lot of sence to me. Proportionally it is not right.

The Gargant is a far higher tech level than the Gigas. The Gigas is what I class a level 4 ship while the Gargant is level 6. It doesn't go by size it goes by the technology level of the vessel.

You've got the Gigas confused with the Apoc, the Apoc is smaller than the Gigas by quite a bit.

oh, also, gargant may be only twice longer, mut mass wise, it's much more, after all, the apoc is just a big thing with a veryyyy long stick (any weird comment about that comparison is very unwelcome ;7  )

So You guys think that Gargant is invincibe eh?

Well it is not! :D There is only one ship in the galaxy that can stop it. A ship so powerful,l that can take at least 6 Sathanas juggernauts at the time. It has 10 000 000 hitpoints and an array of deadly weapons. The ship is named:  EXCELSIOR !!! And it can be found in the Dark Empire campaign.
