Cool Starship: Difference between revisions

*** And the ''[http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/en/images/6/62/USS_Dauntless_profile%2C_Hope_and_Fear.jpg Dauntless]'', even though {{spoiler|it turns out to be a [[Trojan Horse]]}}, it's still pretty cool.

** The ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|Defiant]]'', a cramped, blocky, compact ship designed to ''[http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/en/images/e/ee/USS_Defiant%2C_First_Contact.jpg break stuff]''.

*** Described in the DVD commentary as "on a five-year mission to ''kick ass''."

** The ''[http://memory-alpha.org/wiki/File:USS_Prometheus,_2374_(fore).jpg Prometheus]'', an experimental starship seen a couple of times in ''Voyager''. Not only is it a sleek high-tech ship designed to go where bigger ships can't, it can also [[Bifurcated Weapon|split]] into [http://memory-alpha.org/wiki/File:USS_Prometheus,_multi-vector_assault_mode.jpg three parts] in order to break stuff.

*** The [http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/en/images/5/5c/USS_Enterprise-C.jpg Enterprise-C], commanded by Captain Rachel Garrett and Lt. Castillo. It was so badass, it's crew decided to [[Heroic Sacrifice|fight a battle they were destined to lose]] simply because it would lead to peace between the Federation and the Klingons. Now you know you're a cool ship when you get blown up and the ''Klingons'' are impressed.

*** The TCS Concordia most certainly deserves special mention, if only for it's [[Wave Motion Gun|Phase Transit Cannon]]. Watching it take out cruisers in one shot never gets old, to the point that a mission was put into the fanmade Wing Commander Standoff where the player is diverted to "rescue" it, apparently just to give them a chance to see it annihilate a Kilrathi Cruiser with a single shot, yet again. Seeing that ship's wreckage in the intro to WC3 still ranks up there as one of my most heartbreaking scenes in gaming.

* ''[[Disgaea]]'' has the battleship ''Gargantua''; the human SDF as a whole has an entire battalion of slightly lesser ships that Laharl blows through in a single [[Cutscene Power to the Max|cutscene]].

** She gets satisfaction in the anime... {{spoiler|only better}}.

** This also has a [[Wave Motion Gun]]:

'''Gordon:''' Demon or angel, you won't escape a shot unscathed! }}

* ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' 1 and 2 take this a step further, as they let you build your own [[Cool Ship]] out of spare parts.
