True...It doesn't help that the design hasn't really been updated for i think it's about 212 years.

Am gonna go for the giant motherships from V . The Flying Saucer may be an old design, but these things looked mean, and they knew how to make an entrance. No flashing lights, no scaring redneck farmers in the middle of the night, they just floated into view.

I know the movie did no jusitce to the book, however the bioship in "Dreamcatcher" was pretty neat. But Klatuu's saucer kicked ass!!!

I don't think I mentioned this one; the Emperor class battleships from 40K look awesome.

Yeah, they just look dangerous without even doing anything, don't they?

I always felt that the Chaos ships just have this "you're gonna get an ass-kicking" type of coolness inherently built into them.

Agreed, I have 4 chaos ships in my Imp fleet and I was thinking about taking more.

I'd have to say:
1-Delta Flyer (I thought it was awesome)
2-Miranda/Constitution refit
3-Millenium Falcon
4-original Borg cube (saw it as a child)

I'll throw the Norexan-class (obviously) and Moya from Farscape out there as two of my all time favorites. I'm also keen on the Firefly-class from the eponymous series.

I admit that design has started to grow on me since I started watching Stargate Atlantis and SG-1

I'm not familiar with those shows, but I do like the design. Hmmm... shorten the prow, add engines/engineering in a large annex aft, and you've got a Battlestar!
