Just how big IS an Imperial Star Destroyer??

Post by Shandon Loring »

Wookiepedia lists it at 1600 meters in length.

If you'd like to see one in Kitely at the full size (yes! 1600m, over 6 regions long) we have it rezzed at Spaceworld..
Currently it is set to Phantom, but there is a solid viewing platform where you can stand to check it out.
Being 1600m long you have to stand pretty much amidships to be able to see it all.. depending on your Viewer settings of course.

This LM will take you directly to the viewing platform... you'll want to cam about to see everything...

be careful if you leave the viewing platform... remember it's phantom!!

An actual size Millenium Falcon is hovering there also to help with scale perspective.
Also for scale purposes, there is an NCC-1701A at full scale off the starboard aft.

And Remember Storytime Thursday Jan. 26th, and Star Wars Dance and Costume contest on Saturday Jan. 28th!!

Seriously... if you haven't seen it yet, you should check this thing out.
Monstrous! A beauty to behold! (even if it did come from the Imps)

Would be FANtastic if you could completely build it out inside and put it on a large enough region to be able to walk everywhere on it.
I'm just a humble star pilot, but by my calculations you could put it diagonally on a 4x4, but would still have 50m hanging over at either end.
So I guess you'd need a 5x5?? 6x6?? Of course 64-region would be super cool!

Anyway.. you.. reading this.. go visit it! It's worth the visit!

Thank you for the endorsement Han,
We didn't create it of course, just enlarged with monstrous custom megaprims.
Our dear friend _________________ gave us the base model.

I can't even begin to tell you how supercool it WOULD be to put this thing on a 64-region and open it as a Community Build Project.
But alas, we run pretty tight on funds now.. LoL.. no way could we afford a 64-region in addition to our current estate.

It would be a pretty fun Community Project though maybe...
Anybody want to create GoFundMe mission??
