100 mile-long ships...
Not to be critical, buddy, but 100 mile-long ships are a true feat of engineering even for a high tier-two, or even a low/mid one, let alone a civilization that's emerging from Tier 3. The type of resources that we're talking about is absolutly immense, and then you need to shape that into a superstructure that can hold up its weight. That in itself is an incredible challenge. Then you need a engine, which is a whole different ball-game. :L This is ALL before mounting weapons, hangars, computers, loading cargo and food to satisfy the needs of a large city (it must make a lot of stops or use most of its space for agriculture), and then power its reactors with something. The point I'm trying to make is, a 100-mile long ship is flashy and cool in concept, but think of it tactically. You build a fleet of thousands of ships that make up a far more diverse force for the same amount of resources. After all of that, think of this; Can you even build the thing with the resources and structural and scientific knowledge you have?
