I did this the other day, after capping a Thresher just to see how ridiculously oversized it was compared to the Tiger or Aggie. I was partially occupied with other things, so I ran all of my capitals through the same EQ Dock to get a real feel for comparative sizes. Thresher remains for comparison.

-Griffon

-Yokohama

-Agamemnon

-Cobra

-Siroko

-Akurei (Cerberus and Astreus are the same model I believe)

-Tiger

-Panther

-Boreas

-Hoshi

-Megolodon

Boreas is surprisingly smaller than the Thresher - even in length!

And as big as those wings on the Aggie seem when you are flying it, they're tiny compared to the wings on the Thresher. The wings on the Aggie are barely wider than the hull of the Tiger.

Working on getting a Q to compare... http://imgur.com/a/PB7Cy

I know what you mean, ego must of never set a min and max size for each ship class. Having no set size has kind-of made a mess of the sizing of ships. A Megolodon makes the Boreas look tiny even know they are both M2's! If ego where to have a set size, it may even helped with some of the docking issues. Anyway, thanks for sharing Smile

Do you mean that Thresher is bigger than Meg ? Roll eyes

Edit - Just saw your pics. My bad Meg is huge...damn. Bricks

The Q isn't very big. I think the Thresher would be much bigger. A Kyoto would likely dwarf the Thresher though.

I think Meg is bigger... haven't owned any of them. But have seen them....
At least Kyoto looks like a ship. Meg is like a floating lumber.

yes but those don't have the Meg, or the Kyoto in it, and i agree the Meggy looks like a giant green piece of lumber

Alright then. Guess I'll board me a Kyoto...

Actually I didn't care at this point. Just seeing how HUGE Megolodon was compared to the Porker... err Thresher... was good enough for me. But now I'm curious...

[Get yer boots on girls and Borons, we're going hunting.] <--- the first thing I will say when my game loads up next time.

Here is a pic of a couple Kyoto's docked at the HQ along with an I, Tokyo, Aran, and Osaka so you can see the size difference:
