God, reading over it again...damn, its impossible for someone to be THIS stupid. He ignores all canon evidence (like Picard blantantly saying in First Contact that the Enterprise was nearly 700 meters long)...

He'd probably say Picard was referring to hypermeters, or some such crap.

Bah, we all know the Federation uses ISOmegahypermeters.

Maybe "metres" is super top secret classified Federation code for "dozens of kilometres"?

Or vice versa - look at the number of times when we've heard people claim they're thousands or tens of thousands of kilometres from a given ship, and when we're actually shown the distance it's only a couple of km, tops.

Ironic, that the monstrosities he's come up with are longer than the typical combat range shown in Trek.

He probably thinks they really are fighting at great distances but it looks close because a Klingon BoP is 300 km long :wtf:

No doubt they hollowed out a few Planets for them.
