So, what is your countries ultimate 'Steel penis?', the thing that you just love it show off in wars, so you can say:
"Hey, look at me, I have a uber-n00kular cannon! PHEAR ME!"

Well, heres DGNTs...

Piledriver class planetbusters

Basicaly the biggest ships DGNT has. There are very few and this adds
to the already huge price. The ship is chiefly designed around the
four main 'Planetbuster' cannons, which when fired are capable of
cracking the planets crust and rendering it uninhabitable. Aside from
that it is quite heavily armed against both capitol ships and fighters.
No Death Star here. All thermal exhaust ports are about half an inch
wide and spread over most of the hull.
Most of the ships fighter content is in the form of drones, small
computer manned fighters launched from missile tubes as wellas
standard bays. It has space for about 500 human fighters.

Anyway, as to the theory about guys with big guns and trying to compensate for something...well, nobody really knows with my president, he typically avoids that side of life, years working as a hitman will do that to you.

OOC: The title for this competition is disgusting.

OOC: The title for this competition is disgusting.
Perhaps, but it is an old expression, and there isn't much you can do. It's not really deat or ban worthy, considering that there is a 16+ page "MY STEEL PENISES WILL PROTECT ME" thread in the archive. One that mods and admin had participated it.

My suggestion, lighten up.

Thats exactly what I was thinking of when I posted this thread. I think I posted in that once or twice O_O

OOCly: The Overcompensation II class battlepenis/I.G.N.O.R.E. weapons platform
http://www.projectxenocide.com/public/CTD/Cpl.%20Facehugger/overcompensation.jpg

The Overcompensation II is easily the largest and most potent IGNORE weapon in the CF arsenal. At a "Legnth" of over 600 Miles, the ship is the foremost symbol of male genetic superiority.

The ship is even equipped with a retractable ablative coating! This coating protects the legnth from any threat to its health.

Mounted upon the ship is the IGNORE cannon that allows the ship to annhilate any [n00bish]enemy! It simply causes nations it hits to dissappear.

There can be only one.

ICly: "Vengeance" Class battleship:
http://www.projectxenocide.com/public/CTD/Cpl.%20Facehugger/excalibur.jpg

The "Vengeance" class of battleship is the newest CF capital ship. Tipping the scales at over 4 kilometers long and 1 kilometer wide, this ship is not the most massive ship in the CF Space forces, but it is the most powerful.

The "Vengeance" mounts Sixteen heavy plasma beams designed specifically to annhilate capital ships. It has over 36 Heavy Phased Particle Beam weapons, good general purpose cannons that do increased damage to energy shields. It also has 80 Point defense arrays, small laser turrets designed to shoot down torpedos, bombers, and fighters before they get too close. It mounts twenty standard laser turrets that are essientially a fall back weapon. It mounts 4 heavy railguns that accelerate a ferrous slug that splinters on impact to 1/4 the speed of light (The slug is the size of a Volkswagen beetle.) Last but not least, as its main gun, the Vengeance mounts a "Starpyre beam", which is essientially a stream of antimatter contained in a strong magnetic field.

The Vengeance class is also well armored, with over 12 meters of thick armor. The armor is a Depleted Uranium/Carbon Nanotube/ECC composite sheath (ECC composite is a patented CF innovation, it naturally reflects some types of energy, as well as being roughly twice as strong as carbon nanotube armor. Of course, it is pretty expensive too.)

The Vengeance also incorporates other unique protective measures onto the armor, specifically Clearplast(tm) kinetic energy reduction panels, a light reflecting crystal weave, and particle refracting sheath.

The Vengeance is no slouch when it comes to shielding either, mounting a Triumverate of powerful 'accumulator' shield banks and enhanced with a weak quanta asorbing screen. (The Accumulator shields asorb directed heat attacks such as plasma and shunt the energy to the shield emitters, increasing shield intregrity. The quanta screen allows the accumulator to process some laser/maser weapons in this manner, although not very efficiently.)

The Vengeance is somewhat fast and manouverable, operating on an inertialess drive in normal space and using its Hyperspace drive to accelerate to FTL speeds.

Powered by a trio of Xenium Implosion Reactors which use Xenium, a synthetic stable isotope of Element 115 (unnilpentium; sp), the ship has enough power to operate for years at a time, as the Xenium-Energy conversion ratio is excellent, roughly 99%.

The Vengeance is designed to be a heavy assault ship, taking on the toughest of enemy targets and annhilating them. Possessing bays for 300 small craft (fighters and bombers) allows the craft to operate as a small scale carrier.

The Vengeance is crewed by an operations group of 20,000 (!) crewmen, although most of those are maintence officers. The Ship also has enough room for 7000 CF Elite troopers, who perform a space marine function.

The Vengeance is vulnerable only to extremely large and powerful weapons. Most other weapons won't even make a scratch on it.

Currently, only three examples of this vessel exist; The CFV Aereon, CFV Slayer, and CFV Eternal Flame although there are plans for four more.

The cost on this ship is astronomical, but it is worth every penny.

You were waiting for this, werent you CF?

Well, never been in any wars, so I don't know if it qualifies, but I'm very proud of my...

STELLAR LASER OF DOOM!

Two multi-kilometer mirrors orbit the sun aligned so that the line between them forms a tangent to the sun's surface. One of them is coated with UV phosphors, and the other is semitransparent. Hydrogen isn't the best of lasing materials, but in this case shear quantity (a several hundred thousand kilometer long collumn of stellar atmosphere) makes up for the lack in quality. When the shades are removed, Jove Help He Who May Be Caught In The Beam.

Sounds interesting...
Meh, mines better :P
