Mmm. The size still troubles me a bit; I think I'll scale my own ship down as well. 

I mean, I don't feel that my kind of ship should end up larger than that of a vessel from a series whose main feature is that everything is [i]really fucking big[/i]. I mean, the series I'm using right now is based off an arcade shooter, of all things: there's really no way anything the human in my series can create a dreadnought something larger than anything the Imperium of Man can make in their eras.

I think I'll cut it down to half size, and tweak a few other things while I'm at it. At about 800 meters long, it will still be very sizable, so no concern there at all.

EDIT OF AN EDIT: No, not that dramatic of a change, more like 30%.
