Technically, it’s Kai-o-ken SSB in that image (the extra red glow), but yeah, nothing like SSJ4.

Yeah, that was by far the single worst thing in TFA. They could have done so much better than “mysteriously curving light beam” for effects for their planet destroying weapon, but they chose the single worst option. Something involving holes in hyperspace, accompanied by shots of broadcasts or whatever going blank…

With an attempt at a regular ram, the ship would have been picked apart by cannonfire before it even came into collision range.

Okay, first, it’s worth pointing out that such micro-impacts wouldn’t do much to slow the larger masses, just to erode them. Second, micro-impacts at such speeds would have the side-effect of acting like a supercollider, so you’d have the debris heralded with a shockwave of radiation and exotic matter, which would be…

Things in vacuum do not slow naturally. If something starts out at an extreme velocity, it maintains that velocity unless it impacts something. If you fired a cannonball at .8C at Alpha Centauri, it would take years to arrive, but if it impacted the planet, the planet would be destroyed. It’s very, very basic…

I’ll be happy to tackle some of these questions for you.

Hey, there’s this think called “Wookiepedia.” You may have heard of it. The entire purpose of Wookiepedia is to explain things that were not explained in Star Wars, including the original trilogy, the prequel trilogy, and the various television series.

What happens to the remains of the ship after impact? If I had to guess, I’d say that the pieces (which it is now definitely in, see the gif above that shows the cone-shaped damage lines) continue at their present velocity. If that’s the case, the entire reason it hasn’t been done was because of the colateral damage…

Don’t, it’s a silly complaint. Just read the rest of the thread. Bombs have existed in non-energy and purely kinetic forms throughout the series, he’s just being obtuse about it.

I’ve been searching the thread for mention of the seismic mines. Thank you.

The reason Games Workshop figures are expensive is because they tie the price of the models to the point value of the figures involved, making various armies relatively similar in monetary value. It’s very much an unusual decision, but it does work fairly well if you’re willing to meet the price.

This is a democracy, and democracy is strongest at the local level, where there’s fewer voters. The people most empowered to prevent this kind of thing are the locals. What you’re suggesting is disenfranchising the local populations of their ability to make business decisions.

Not really that different. People put time and effort into how they look, but they don’t expect to be immediately fetishized (“I love how chokers look”) and scrutinized just for going out into public. It’s something entirely different when they make certain to indicate they are wearing something to be appreciated,…

I believe the point of his comment was to point out that you are objectifying a woman in the comments of an article pointing out just how toxic that activity is.

Ah, memories of late nights hammering at a keyboard and gleefully hissing “rebel scum” under my breath. Good times.

It’s called DECOMPRESSION. If you can’t understand the concept of how an explosion affects a pressurized vessel in a depressurized area, you really need to learn more about how vacuum works. A grenade works from generating a pressure wave and hurling shrapnel. In a vacuum, you only get the shrapnel, except from the…

Well, actually, Rebels is doing a pretty good job of making TIE Fighter canon again. And most of the WEG run on the Star Wars RPG actually introduced a number of pieces to the canon, including to the newer movies, simply by laying the groundwork for everything that followed in the EU. No, what we have here is more…

The explosion didn’t kill anyone, they were just hurled into space by the decompression.

The FX series is a remake of the movie. The NZ series is the spinoff featuring the detectives.

The way it works is the PvP flag gets toggled only in major cities. It prevents people from abusing the toggle while still making PvP opt-in.
