Since I started playing in EVE I've noticed that a lot of the ships in-game bare resemblance to quite a few real life vehicles, characers and or every day items we might find around our houses. Here are some of the comparisons I have made. The Maller's forward hull bares a very odd resemblance to the new model of Cylon Centurian's face plate. MallerCylon- Evil sideways eye included. The Crusader/Executioner looks familair to the new model of Cylon Raider. Executioner] - Cylon RaiderThe ORE Rorq looks somewhat like an Earth Alliance Omega Class destroyer. Rorqual- Earth OmegaThese are all the comparisons I can give at the moment. Feel free to add your own. Changed pics to links, please do not place images directly into the thread - Mitnal |

Edited by: DubanFP on 16/07/2008 02:36:37 You know EVE's 2003 release date predates most of those pics right? That and you can hardly call Battlestar Gallactica "Real Life" |

You do know that these are not "Real life comparisons" right?  |

Some big ships. Hurricane = 580 meters long (according to overview) How big is that? Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier = 340 meters long Star Destroyer = 1600 meters long Big ship.  |

Iteron, Armageddon, and especially the Thorax. It seems to be a trend. |

In that you (and others) are comparing eve ships to cylons, star wars ships, and other assortedly similar things - I think you're using a vastly different definition of "real life" than I am. |

The Iteron has already reminded me Mr. Hanky. Coincidence, I think so! And to all the knit-pickers in the thread, please stop it otherwise Jesus will come down from the heavens cry baby kittens :-( |

I take it that you're a lonely 40 year old something virgin as you have nothing else better to do than come in to the thread and knit-pick. Am I right? |

No. The new Battlestar Galactica is not real life. It is not even real Battlestar Galactica. |
