If each person needs 100 square feet to live, and a falchion class escort is 2.2km by 0.3km and I did my math correctly. You can have almost seven million people living in a falchion class escort ship in 40k. This is likely an over estimate due to how much space you need for equipment and food stocks. However, this is giving people a small apartment for living space on a ship and you have much less living space on a submarine. Which militaries already do.
Macro canons work on the same principle as rail guns used by the tau and Eldar, however, unlike those, the energy charge causes the shells to spin similar to the normal modern-day bullets, in addition to that some of them can be rocket-propelled that ignited when leaving the barrel of the cannon, Imperial las canons work on the principle of plasma beams generated charge via laser, usually, there are 2 types of lances on any Imperial ship, auto fire light repeating laser turrets that are guided by the Machine Spirit that target enemy missiles & fighters, manually operated turrets such as the primary batteries and top side rotary batteries, similar to the ones used by Iowa's & Bismarck class battleships, that target other capital ship and smaller crafts, The Nova cannon is a super tier rail gun that operates on hyper energy inertia build-up for release to generate o big ass bang, the weapon itself is built along the full hull of the ships itself, once the engines have been built up a powerful enough charge the round is loaded and fired,
It was a typo I missed. I've never claimed my typing is perfect.. Hell I've lost track of the number of times I've used the wrong form of words like Know when I meant no or for when I meant four.
@@nt249-hoa-ong9 First off, the official canon policy from GW is, there is no canon. Second, where are you getting your information that gigaton is mid-end for 40K? Third, if you're going by the novels only, the yields are all over the place. Lastly, if someone thinks the novels are the gold standard for firepower feats, they need to explain why. Why would the novels take precedent over the game lore? I know the reason why 40K fanboys only quote novels, and only the novel with high end feats. I won't try to come off as a jerk, but to put it simply, any of the reasons they give to explain why only high end novel feats are the gold standard are disingenuous to say the least. In their mind 40K has to be the best and that's their real reason.

that yield doesn't sound that impressive considering that this is 40,000 years into the future and humanity was doing pretty well up to the Men of Iron revolt
Can the nova cannon be retracted before the ship rams another; because I gather that the nova cannon is reletivly rear and dificult weapon to build, maintane, and arm?
@@yeetyeet5079 Not sure about the lore but in Battlefleet gothic armada ship with nova cannon usually don't have spur which give the extra damage for ramming action and extra frontal armor for the ship.

Imperial Navy got Orbital Strike, awesome.
You forgot the exterminatus torpedo. That thing is my go to weapon.
isn't that what the vortex torpedo is?
No, Cyclonic Torpedoes and Atmospheric Incinerator Torpedoes are used in exterminatus. But I was specifically revering to the latter in this case.
Oh ya I guess I get vortex and cyclonic mixed up since I guess a vortex and a cyclone seem kind of similar haha thanks for the correction
No problem man, 40k navy is kind of my forte.
I decided to reserve that for a dedicated exterminatus video.

13:08 is that torpedo hole and nova cannon?
An average macrocannon has a 1 kiloton yield. You add up several ranks of these and it quickly become an impressive nuclear level bombardment.
I think that is the low end of the canon because on spacebattle using mid-end canon most macro cannon have gigaton fire power

Probably nova cannon
I want BattlefleetGA 2....
I would like that as well.
me too.....
well good news it came out just last week
I would have 50 nova cannons. and call the ship the Mary sue

Hello TH-cam algorithm. Lets explore the capital.
What are the ranges?
Sence they are in space usaly infinite
@@nuke7777 or until thermal blooming or a celestial bodies’ gravity kick in, but that is at some insane distance
Ramming is practice, so stupid short
