Talk:Supply vessel

From Gineipaedia, the Legend of Galactic Heroes wiki

Are those supply vessels? I thought they were engineering ships. I thought supply vessels were the huge green rectangular container ships, like Kircheis attacked and destroyed in Episode 14. I know for sure we saw them resupplying ships later in the series. *goes off to check*

Yup, we see these types of ships in Episode 60, when he Alliance battleships and carriers are being dissassembled in accordance with the peace treaty. Remember "Flagship RK-387"? Much more a job for an engineering ship, not a supply ship. They even look a lot like Imperial engineering ships (both 'lower' themselves onto warships) Vympel 16:41, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Watching further, the screenshot *is* from Episode 60. Those ships are towing those vessels away, they're not resupplying them. Definitely not supply ships. Vympel 16:44, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

In the context of the episode, weren't they being resupplied? It's been a while, so I don't remember too well.

Nope, its Merkatz 'Robin Hood' fleet stealing vessels about to be dismantled under the treaty of Baarlat.

Supply ships are these things:- http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/8257/supplyship.jpg - in one of the later episodes (I think during battle of the corridor) we see them resupplying Yang's ships. Vympel 01:56, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, here it is:- http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/3461/resupplyn.jpg (episode 81, laserdisc rip) Vympel 01:59, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

Generic ship info?

I'm thinking, we should really have a ship info box for generic ships, right? Can we just use the existing ship info box and delete the redundant lines? I wish I had the original Fleet File Vol 1 collection, then I could put in dimensions I know to be accurate (the Japanese fan site is mostly accurate, but I've noticed errors several times now when compared to the fleet file booklets).Vympel 09:23, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, i didn't notice this before. You can indeed just use the existing infobox template; any lines that are empty or not present will just be omitted from the box. Let me know if there are any fields that need to be added to the template that are specific to the generic vessel types  ♥ kine @ 11:49, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

No probs. I plan to update the generic / standard ship entires when I'm done with all the unique ones. Vympel 12:10, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
