Originally by: Spartan III Don't a lot of amarr ships look like cylon ships from battlestar galactica? they have that slit across the front just like the eye/scanner on cylon raiders.
Some ships for example. Zealot - Must be a cylon ship, perfect example Linkage Geddon - also looks cylonish Linkage
There are others but i am too tired to think of em.
No
Hardly

you've just made me feel very old.
But ... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077215/
The OP is refering to the NEW series of battlestar galactica not the old one remember he says ships with slide down front pannel. old seriesd ships are grey disks with a 3 pilot cylon crew i think [or was it 2].

That's where the resemblance ends, tbh.
And it's only a couple of ships at any rate. Not to mention that the scale of the 'slit' is a bit different (the Armageddon is the size of a small town, for example).
Quite right really its a bit like saying the new cylon raiders look like planes because they both have wings.
Saying htat tho i think the NEW cylon raiders look a lot cooler than the old ones.

Who's laughing now?
I am - because there was a Battlestar Galactica long before there was an EVE. The OP may have "meant" the new series and Slater may have meant the same, but neither one said that. It seems like Slater was unaware of the original series.
So I will continue my ridicule and mockery of his remark. 
Its quite obvious you cant read the op commented on the slide down pannel on cylon ships thats a feature in the new less *** series. [and yes the old series is *** im just glad 'Lucifer' isant in the new series]
And hte reason i never stated which series i was on about well reading the OP its pretty obvious which one it is .

Originally by: St Dragon As to the OP's question well i can see the slit on the amarr ships but truth is thats all that really seems similar excluding a certain frigate of course.
Also about the argument concerning slaters post does it REALLY matter
I really like your banner can i use it as my own 
As for whether i knew about both seried old and new then yes im 27 so i have seen them both.
Besides the pilot movie was on sky last year anyway. [That robot dog looks more like a bear to me

I would think if anyone could clearly see what he was talking about then there wouldn't have been any confusion, however since there was confusion I'd say he wasn't clear at all.
Regardless I agree I think there are several ships that look like Cylon ships, but I also see influences from a number of Sci-Fi shows ship types as well.
Don't a lot of amarr ships look like cylon ships from battlestar galactica? they have that slit across the front just like the eye/scanner on cylon raiders.
Looks pretty clear to me

To you...exactly. To the others not so obvious, to someone that might have not (gasp!) actually have seen the new series not obvious at all.
And there were little scanning red slit lights in the original series, only on the Cylons themselves if I remember correctly but still it was nearly 30 years ago and we all can't read between the lines as well as others.
you ..... havent seen the new series

Originally by: Milodon Just in, CCP has released photos of the new Amarr Tier 3 Battleship:
Amarr BS
To confirm rumors about the new Amarr BS being a drone carrier, CCP has revealed that this Battleship will be able to carry and launch 250 Raider Drones, apparently a new type of fighter. In addition, it appears that the ship itself is designed to be a missile platform with several launcher hardpoints, as seen here.

I KNEW IT

LMAO did ccp even exist back in 1978!!! yet alone computer graphics like this.
K.I.T. from Knightrider was a cylon spy!
Sigh once again i will say the OP and Me are on about the NEW series not the old camp version.
Its advisable you actually read all the posts first then you would know this already.

Originally by: Spartan III Ok, Fine... I was talking about the NEW battlestar galactica. The Cylon raiders are Alive and see through that scanning "eye" on the front of their ships.
Sorry I didn't make myself clear, but watching this fight was a lot of fun
[Jumps up and down] See See i was right all along .
Now who looks silly.

Originally by: Benilopax I swear to god BSG ripped off EVE have you seen the camera work?
When they zoom in on the fleet its just like when someone holds down the mouse buttons and scrolls in!
I dunno thought the camera work was quite good.
