I think the first one to shoot a broadside will lose. The recoil would surely make it turn turtle.

I think if the city residents open fire those ships are toast. :hmm:

Banzaiiiiii!!!!
 
HMS Whatthefark - but then again I'm a brit (even if the Whatthefark does sound canadian).

A more interesting bet would be how far those tubs move backwards when they fire their main armament.

No kidding, let the New Yorkers unload on those guys. Whatthefark wins

:up:

Syxx_Killer 08-25-05 04:20 PM

Boy, I sure hope you catch some "live" footage from the battle. :arrgh!: :rock:

paintar 08-25-05 05:54 PM

I,m goin for the wun with the biggest lifeboat

After thinking it over, my money is on KMS Bisfarck to win.

I just want to know what is the secondary armament?, the smell of rotting fish? :hmm:

Der Schatten 08-25-05 07:56 PM

It's a trick! The Bisfark is actually a camoflaged conning tower to a type 35 U-boot! :yep:

Well, it looks like it was pretty even right up until the end...


How did it really turn out?
Stay tuned for...

THE GREAT NAVAL BATTLE OF NEW YORK

The Bisfarck set her sights on the enemy first...

...delivering a salvo of terrifying might right across the island!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8754/027xc.th.jpg
...however, it missed. Both adversaries started rounding the island.

HMS Whatthefark's aim was better... if only that building wasn't in the way!

Travelling at full speed, the opponents prepared to unleash their broadsides as soon as they passed the island...

http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/6285/061tt.th.jpg
The Whatthefark was first to reload her quadruple 14" cannons, and unleashed a devastating salvo!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/300/072kt.th.jpg
...however...
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/4051/089cd.th.jpg
It was now the Bisfarck's turn to bring her full firepower. Salvo!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/7712/092gz.th.jpg
The massive shells struck the top of Whatthefark's turret!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8381/106cf.th.jpg
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/875/113ey.th.jpg
...oh no! Whatthefark's tremendous superstructure collapsed, igniting the magazines below!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/3720/128mo.th.jpg
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/4561/138au.th.jpg
Oh no! The pride of the royal navy blows up in flames!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/9594/146pd.th.jpg
AND THE BISFARCK IS VICTORIOUS!!!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/1272/155ny.th.jpg












......however...




THE RAF COASTAL COMMAND ARRIVES FOR REVENGE!
As, precisely 15 seconds after the mighty Whatthefark's sinking, from the cloudy skies swoops down the fearsome...

















...CATAFARK!!!!

http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/9307/227mp.th.jpg
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/391/230jx.th.jpg

AND SO, THE TWO MIGHTY OPPONENTS SINK SIDE BY SIDE, NOT EVEN 20 SECONDS APART

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY CATAFARK!

Catafark uber alles!

By the way, as a physics guy :ping: , I personally designed the recoiless cannon and antigravity drive.

This devices were not meant to be used for your barbaric Earth wars :nope: ! They were designed for the high and noble purpose of breaking down inhabited solar systems into their component minerals! :damn: :damn: :damn: :ping:
