This thread is now the ultimate Star Wars thread in the forums. I suggest we use it.

Don't be too proud of this safe space you've constructed. The power to suppress divisive opinions is insignificant next to the power of free speech. ;)

Attempt to take action to suppress what I'm saying. Sorry, I forgot people like you have trouble grasping these types of concepts.

All I've done is move to this thread weeks before the other one was locked. Other people reported you for ad-homming, which is of course against basic site rules.

How? The double hangar bay is interesting but I genuinely don't know how.

Moderation ruled otherwise.

A great example of the corruption and inherent bias in the system. :)

Indeed!

I love its design the most, although the Malevolence comes close. The ship's title is probably an allusion to the Invisible Hand of the Free Market.

Not sure about the Malevolence-class but I can see the attraction towards the IH.
And I never thought of the allusion before. That's pretty smart if it was intentional.

Of course you would think so, wouldn't you. :lol:

Have to say though, I do like the CIS aesthetics, and the Invisible Hand is no exception. Not sure if it's the "best", but it might be my favorite capital ship. Always loved the shark look the ship had. The Malevolevolence is cool too, but I agree that the Invisible Hand looks better.

I'd be surprised if it wasn't. Though, obviously, Lucas wasn't intending that to be complimentary.

Ah, I see that you are a fellow of culture as well. The IH is streamlined compared to other capital ships, and not needlessly bulky or obtuse.

To be fair, I remember there being a source that stated the Invisible Hand wiped out entire planetary populations with its firepower.
