[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 4253215, member: 2020"] This is why the klingons gave up on building B-10 Battleships, and never built the A-11. Big is not cost effective, and it is easily destroyed. (If you don't play Star Fleet Battles, just think of a really big Klingon ship ...) In D&D, you spend a fortune building an iron golem. And what do you get for it? A rock to mud (1E style) sinks it, the reverse entombs it, and your money and time are down the drain. What's a poor archmage to do? As for the fighter, he has one of those greatbows, right? It's 6 feet tall, and built for 23 strength. Until someone sets it on fire, and scratch one cherished bow. The Death Star was supposed to be the Ultimate Battlestation. Instead, it turned into the Ultimate Dragonlance Gnomish Monstrosity. EDIT: I mean, it took the Alliance all of 30 minutes to find it's weakness, and one shot from an X-Wing fighter destroys this ultimate machine. Talk about incompetent bungling on the part of the Empire ... [/QUOTE]
