(Xantalos is Cthulhu? Seems like I'm gonna have to eat you again...)

(Not yet.)

Assuming YAFB is canon ...
Hanslanda was at one point Liam Neeson. He later revealed himself to also be Cthulhu. Ergo, I have telepathy with Cthulhu.

BECOME THE NEESON

Prey was awesome, as was sphere.

Really, though, Chricton isn't the only scifi author guilty of doing this:

Perfect.

EDIT:

Some of what I do to sheep can be counted as skinning them, yes.

Death star.

Both Death Stars were defended by hundreds of shield projectors (including Deflection towers), and thousands of turbolasers, ion cannons and laser cannons. The first one contained a complement of seven to nine thousand TIE fighters, along with tens of thousands of support craft, bombers, and gunships. Massive docking bays provided several Star Destroyers with dry docks, and more than a million Imperial personnel were on board both battle stations.

One drawback of the original design was the power systems. Twenty-four hours were required to fully charge the laser. However, even low power shots were capable of massive destruction on a planetary scale. The second Death Star had redesigned systems and was capable of firing the superlaser once every three minutes. It also had improved targeting computers, allowing it to fire the weapon accurately at capital ships.

There were small gaps in the shields of the first Death Star; the Empire believed that this was harmless since only small ships could wiggle through the gaps. The shields of the second Death Star would have had no such gaps.

The second Death Star also corrected several other flaws in the original design. The two-meter exhaust vent that doomed the first station was replaced with millions of millimeter wide tubes, each designed to seal if excess energy was detected. The second station also boasted far more turbolaser batteries with redesigned targeting systems, allowing them to target starfighters more easily. The greatest concentration of turbolasers was located near the Emperor's throne tower.

I don't know anything about the Sovereign. But I think this speaks for itself. >.> I strongly suspect this Sovereign cannot withstand a planet-destroying laser beam fired with pinpoint accuracy once every three minutes.

And if it can, then the DS just launches 'lolz-all-da-fuckin-fighter-craft', drags it down with sheer numbers, and runs it over like a big space-speed bump.

Dis.

Stay under bed. Kill anyone who looks for me.

Dang it! I missed it. I'll make a character later for the wait list.

The Thing is afraid of fire. He fears fire. It is his weakness because it puts the entire body in danger, and thus all the cells stop working together, because they want to escape. If you blasted a Thing with a flamethrower, no matter what he is dressed up as every part of him will immediately bail, because 'fuck fire it hurts.'

That didn't always happen as it did in the movies, but I see your point.

Well there have to be some rules and exceptions, otherwise the whole thing would be a mess. Making a good monster means knowing when to draw the line, and John Carpenter nailed it perfectly, so let's not ruin it by trying to poke holes in the idea.

True dat.
