MemberPraetorianSep-17-2017 7:33 PMDoes anyone have 100% confirmed canon dimensions of the ships in the Alienverse?
There seem to be some huge variations in the reported dimensions of the ships in the universe!
The Conestoga-class ships for example seem to either listed as 385m long OR 731.6m depending on the source.
That's kind of a big difference!

Various W-Y schematics and concept arts
I've put together a list of the various listed lengths of the more famous ships in the Alienverse (Bold values dictate most commonly listed length).
Oddly the Juggernaut (an Alien vessel!) seems to be only consistently reported vessel at 304m.
Length:
USCSS Prometheus: 130m (427ft) - 170m (560ft)
Engineer Juggernaut: 304.8m (1000ft)
USM Auriga: 2658m (8720ft) to 3657.6m (12000ft)
USS Conestoga Class Troop-Carrier: 385m (1263ft) - 731m (2398ft)
USCSS Nostromo: 243m (797ft) - 334m (1096ft)
USCSS Covenant 500m (1640ft)
Betty: 44.4m (146ft)

MemberPraetorianSep-18-2017 3:01 PMAti Its a cool looking ship, though huge compared to the other ships in the franchise at x10 the size of a Conestoga and Juggernaut!
Makes you wonder What the hell else did they have on that thing beside the whole Alien experiments.
I love how the Sulaco was designed to look like a gun in space whilst the Auriga's design was based around a combat knife, though with that tapered bow it looks more like a hammerhead shark imo, somewhat predatory for a research ship XD

MemberPraetorianSep-18-2017 3:11 PMXenotaris agreed, it is a truly epic design. As timeless and iconic as any other memorable sci-fi ship design

MemberPraetorianSep-19-2017 10:04 AMCan't wait to see more Alienverse ships turning up in the future. The Sulaco is one of my favorites, then it's the Prometheus, then the UD-L4 Cheyenne Dropship, then the Covenant, then the Juggernaut/Derelict, then the Nostromo, (insert Alienverse EU ships), then the Auriga.
