So I was thinking about it and one of my mates said "I have 200,000 Crystal." Sure he has 200k crystal...but what are the units? Is that 200k tons of crystal? What is the scale that zorg uses its annoying me to no end

i dont think they use tons ?? good question nvr really thought of it before

damn now this is gonna be drivin me crazy all day

I know right!!

lemme try
suppose rl=2500 metal
AT4 cost = U.S. $1,480.64
suppose rl 100% steel
1 ton is around $419.
so 1480 / 419 is around 3.5 tons per rl
so 1 metal in zorg is 0.014 tons or 2.8 lb assuming its an anit tank rl

Well I'll throw in a calculatation aswell, I like Richards one

$852,000,000,000,000,000 in steel to build a deathstar, Death Star Metal Cost

(That huge number)/419 = 233,412,887,828,162 tons per deathstar
5,000,000 metal to build the deathstar

1 metal = 406,682,577 tons <- Think big, thats what I say

in ze its 5 mil metal 2.5 crys and such so grand cost based on zorg metal isnt that expensive

really, does it matter? 1 unit= 1 unit. the rest you can imagine. given that my entire empire fits on my desk, i think 1 unit = .0000000000000000001 miligrahm lol

Aww your no fun thinman. Come on you have to admit it does make you puzzle and wonder. And Cypher so far your's seems the funnest to ponder about. If that ratio is the same does that mean the worth of deut and metal and crystal being traded is based of their weight that you are trading and not the actual amount in a shipment container =p?

What I wonder is how a Death Star fits through a Jump gate lol

good question you would need a planit size gate
