It's in my RT...

Nah, that's the average cruiser. There are some that range in 50 meters.

Which ones?

Correct. Some freighters are even classified as cruisers.

Are you talking about the vehicles in the hanger feat?

Ok, I've never actually seen this feat in any of his RT's, nor have I been able to find it on the Internet. Could you please provide it?

Its a bullshit feat. The vehicles were clearly not very big and the author calls speeders "cruisers" at one point, lol.

"Clearly not very big?" Is that why Obi-Wan and Anakin had to leap, twist and dive in order to avoid huge pieces of shrapnel from falling on top of them?

Not to mention when Dooku smashes several vehicles/vehicle remnants together to block the hangar entrance, it's described as a "mountain of metal". Which he also moved "so easily".

I'm using intel from the SW Gamer Magazine and their listings of ancient ship vehicles. The biggest are 200+, the smallest are 50 meters.

I think I posted that a while back in a thread.

Oh man...the Ancient Sith had such crap for starships! I mean I get it, era timeframe and everything. But I can't help compare and man...they had absolute crap.

Well, they weren't the most technologically advanced people to begin with.

Large, throwable, Dooku-wanking crap. 👆

That's an apt description of both the ships and myself. :3

True I guess I can't be too hard on em. 😛

The sizes aren't confirmed. The first two are clearly smaller vessels, most likely fighters or shuttles (at leas the second was, given the mention of wings), but as far as the cruiser goes we don't actually know how large it was. Do we know how expansive the hanger was?

All ancient Sith hangers could house multiple 215 long ships, and then some. 👆

We can't say for certain how big the ships were, but we can make educated guesses and gauge the size. 70 meters seems fair.

The sizes aren't confirmed indeed; but they can range from 50 - 215 metres. Given the ease with which Dooku was doing it despite not even being in the same room, if you pick a size that's closer to the 215 metres you're basically putting Tyranus on the same level as Vader.

The first two vehicles weren't listed as cruisers to begin with. I'm saying the cruiser was so large that when it smashed into the wall it rained vehicle parts that were so large that Obi-Wan and Anakin had to leap, twist, dive and use Force Deflection in order to avoid being crushed. They ended up taking shelter underneath a giant statue, so again, the evidence points to those pieces being huge and hence the cruiser must've been massive.

As for how large the hangar was, I don't believe specifics were given, but IIRC, Anakin was amazed by the sheer size of it.

They can't have been 215 meter-long, factually speaking.

Why not? Anyways, they don't have to be over 100m to be very impressive.

215 meters wouldn't be classified as cruisers anyway, they'd be roughly still in a Corvette range just slightly bigger.

Check my thread in the EU section.

Again, it's not following the Anaxes War College system.
