Well as time and space are supposed to be a single continuum, i think you should be crucified.

Also to the original poster, FOR GOD SAKE THE ANSWER TO YOUR STATEMENT HAS BEEN GIVEN HUNDRED MILLIONS OF TIMES.

In honesty I believe the soct ships are Jove, just very old obsolete designs that the jove no longer consider important thus shared the blueprints with soct, after all the soct ships do have similarities reminiscent of the jove ships we do know about.

I mean if you compare the gnosis to something like the eidolon, the gnosis in a way looks like a very old much chunkier version of the sleek design their modern ships have.

Wasn't crucifixion ended around 2000 light years ago?

That's like saying the Zealot is Viziam, not Amarr.

No, saying SoCT ships are Jovian is like saying the Sansha ships are Caldari just because Sansha Kuvakei was/is Caldari.

Except with this particular idiom it's always a measure of distance that is used: They're miles ahead of us! Etc.

Not really. It is the same as the scorpion being listed as caldari.

Any of their ships are supposed to ROFLstomp our ships, and yet the Gnosis isn't really that powerful.
Its powerful and versatile yes, but light years ahead of the empires? No.

Is this like an old model?
Because if this ship is the average Jovian ship, then the empires could take them down with just sheer numbers.



If you look at the EVE map, Jove space is light years ahead of us. You can find it further to the relative north.

Agreed.


Only if we can also add misuse of the word "parsec" on top of that.

"It's the ship that made the Kessel Run is less than 12 parsecs!"

@ Lucas

Parsec is a unit of distance, you rock-stupid half-assed excuse for a writer!



and how many laymen actually know that?

most people hear what sounds like a unit of time and ASSUME that's what it it

(people who assume **** should ALSO be crucified)

It's very out of character. It's not like EVE players to be so incredibly anal and nitpicky. Big smile

Reminds me of a Terry Pratchett quote I'm quite fond of:

If the Creator had said, "Let there be light" in Ankh-Morpork, he'd have gotten no further because of all the people saying "What colour?"
