I was just watching the doubleheader episodes of DS9 when Gowron and Martok attack the Detapa council, and then attack DS9. Anyway part of that episode involved the Defiant blowing two B'rels to pieces in under 10 seconds with only its PPCs. You really thinks ships that small with that little armor stand a chance against a battleship of any race?
The discussions about bugships versus sabers versus k'vorts is fun but the original topic is pretty dumb.

There was 3 of them if I recall, and these are K'vorts. K'vorts in wolf packs are dangerous foes because they rely on each other to protect their weaknesses. K'vorts alone are fairly easy to take out. I also recall 1 of them was destroyed during the conflict.

I'd say that I'd agree with the Chancellor. Size doesn't always matter; it's just the muscle used that counts. A BOP can easily escape a Warbird's firing arcs and come about with unleashed fury.

The D'deridex has arcs all over it despite people thinking their all forward. Trust me, it has LITTLE chance. Lol, bridge commander? I have it and that game is extremely uncanon. Don't wanna say anything but they screwed up the warbird big time. Anyone who relys on it for information is a moron.

funny that is what started this topic in the first place wasn't it? heh... yeah every post here with the exception of some extremly resiliant folks agree that the BOP of any size will never ever be a match for the oversized warbird

One alpha strike on a B'rel or possibly a K'vort will end it. A D'tai has alot more of a chance but would most likely lose.

A B'rel or K'vort would still be very maneuverable nonetheless. Along with cloaking technology, bad ass disruptors and torpedoes, and Klingon fighting spirit, it would still beat a Warbird. Size isn't everything.

Accidental double-post. The B'rel may have a better chance than a K'vort due to it being smaller and faster.

What does size have to do with anything? Ships are just as easy to hit when small or large, small just makes it so you hit more subsystems with one shot. It's the 24th century, weapons can track their target, and so forth. Plus it's not like the warbirds don't have cloaking either, or less powerful weapons. Any warbird can beat any BoP anyday.

Really? Klingons are not stupid, so they have to have some way to fight against unimmeasureable odds. They have high expectations, and if they still have Birds of Prey, then those ships do stand a chance, for Klingons still use things that are useful. Even the D7 is still used by them due to it being comparable in battle against unimmeasureable odds.

They still use alot of ships, are you understanding me? IT DOESN'T MATTER, the most that could come out of a BoP vs warbird fight is a heavily damaged warbird and slightly more space dust. Does anyone else see this as a possibility because i'm starting to get bored with repeating myself.
