GTVA Colossus

The largest vessel ever created. This dreadnought was first designed during the infancy of the GTVA, by the Emperor Khonsu II. Its construction took over twenty years, ending with the unveiling of the twelve kilometer starship during a minor skirmish. The Colossus and its 10,000 member crew all perished while valiantly distracting the first Sathanas juggernaut.

Jump, Colossus.

We can't, we've been disabled.

impact rifle

The batallion of soldiers equipped with impact rifles made swiss cheese of that line of tanks.

Planet smashers are the ultimate weapon.

Law of Nazi Analogies

As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.

Once both members of the debate became angry enough, the eventual comparison to Nazis came into play.
