As for the rebel fleet coming out of hyperspace, we only saw one Home One type - we saw two engaging the Ex, and a possible third destroyed by the DS2. Ergo, the shots of the fleet emerging and of the Imp fleet were not the entirety of those forces.
I don't recall ever seeing a comship, just the SSD from the Deathstar. We saw two MC80s and one of those were destroyed by DS2. So your statement is meaningless.

A, I never saw or heard the film talk about any Imperial ships on the opposite side of the planet. Even if they were there, they are already blocked by the planet so sitting next to an enemy ship isn't doing anything but allowing that enemy to hit you with greater ease.
Captain Seafort wrote:Wrong. Look at the Neb-B exchanging broadsides with the Ex's trench guns - that's clearly naval-style combat.
Tanks do the same thing, so do APCs and IFVs. So does a combat recon jeep for that matter. Someone shooting someone next to them does not equal naval battle. It means they are shooting at someone next to them.
Captain Seafort wrote:More evidence that space combat is analogous to naval combat - TLs are clearly LOS weapons.
So you're saying that LOS is the same as naval? So a rifle is only naval? Or maybe missiles are never used in naval because as you stated LOS is what makes naval. Of course ships use cannons, so you could next say that tanks don't use cannons because then they would be naval.
Even your wiki based education should have been able to tell you that Space combat is analogous to SPACE combat.

ISD1, not too clear but shows the number of heavy turrets
ISD1 close up, aft three turrets
ISD2 heavies
So by the ISD2 model it has four twin 4-cannon sets. So it has 32 guns per flank. Now thats impressive firepower.

Really? Because in the ISD threads you've commented several times that the Wikipedia over rides what Han Solo, Vader, Databank and the creator of the Universe declared. In another thread you stated that the Dominion fighters attacking the Odessey were able to avoid fire. When GK posted a picture of one getting hit you stated that the picture of a ship getting hit proved that the same ship wasn't hit. You have a rather common habit of lying.
Captain Seafort wrote:What do you call the image of the corvette alongside the stern then? Or the Lambada passing through the hangar entrance?
Those, would be images of a corvette and a Lambada. However we aren't talking about either of them.
Captain Seafort wrote:They don't have to. The length of the ship is shown, by comparison to the Lambda and the corvette.
Since you only have a partial view from an unsure angle without a follow up to support it, its nothing but a fans idea. Not canon, the creators of the universe take first rights to canon not just you and some other kid with a thought. As I stated before, I support the idea of the 4.5km however what I support doesn't matter if the writers of canon make a direct statement to something else.
