      The models and the majority of art depict starships wrong because they are based on BattleFleet Gothic tabletop game in which ship models had huge cannons so you can paint them. In the lore macrocannons fire projectiles the size of super heavy tanks or small buildings and there are hundreds of such cannons on the board of the ship grouped in batteries.

      The burj Khalifa is just another spire on a millions of cathedrals in the universe of warhammer 40k. Every ship has a cathedral on it but the macro cannons are even bigger. Their purpose is to level cities, continents and planets, depending on the mission.

Chaos doesn't win by martial might, as long as human souls exist chaos will never be defeated. You could argue that a logistically sound imperium could forever repel the forces of Abaddon, but to "body" chaos doesn't mean to simply show up to the gates of hell with an impressive armada.

      For the Speranza, the book it was in specifically states that it was "continent-sized" and that it has the industrial capacity of an average Forge world on its own. It was also so large that when it took off from the Forge world it was embedded in, said world broke apart.
      Taking these descriptions at face value since there is no evidence that counteracts it in the source material, this would mean that the Speranza is at the very least, as large as Australia.

      @@glennjanot8128 What source states that Nova cannons run almost the entire length of the ships they're attached to?!? They aren't MACs from Halo or Mass Effect dreadnought cannons, in any official image you see of a Nova cannon it's an underslung attachment to the prow, barely being twice the length of said prow. As for the recoil, yes, most Nova cannons do require the thrust of an entire cruiser or battleship to counteract the recoil, but the Somnium is stated to be full of atchaeotech that allows it to run with a startling degree of automation and do things Imperial ships have no right being able to do. Whose to say that some of that archaeotech didn't include enhanced inertial dampeners on the Nova cannons to mostly mitigate their recoil, or maybe some grav generators on the back that produce a counterforce for every time the cannons fire, like how PD guns in the Expanse show have thrusters on their rears to counteract recoil. It's more likely that the full size of the Nova cannons would be similar to those of something like a Gloriana, so likely 2-3 km long each, and maybe they are put on articulated turreted mounts across the hull for optimal coverage.

      You also have to remember that it is not like on Earth where humans are crawling everywhere. It is more like a colony. You just started colonizing planet and it will take centuries even with advanced technologies to even settle the entire planet. If it is barren, it would be more like a moon. A small base and a lot of nothing around. People literally have no reason to go outside. It is like arctic regions are today. Just few thousand people sheltered in research stations. Do you think they are going across the continent? Are they trying to dig up snow there? There could be a continent sized ship in our arctic right now and the only thing which would show us that is geological surveys from orbit. Now imagine colonist just settling on the planet. They wouldn't have anything fancy like geological satellites doing scan of an entire planet and team of researchers carefully investigating data.

It's also a pop culture reference to the first Death Star which was also 160km (death star 2 has varied from 200k to over 900km based on when, as their was big debate due to the size of Vader's flag ship huge size but the lack of curvature on the 2nd Death Star when it hit it).

      There are only average numbers for ship sizes:
      1-2 kilometers long for Escorts
      4-6 kilometers long for Cruisers (light/heavy)
      8-12 kilometers long for Battleships
      It was stated in *"Horus Heresy Book Three: Extermination"*
      Many direct sizes in this video were stated in *"Rogue Trader: Battlefleet Koronus"* and *"Rogue Trader: Core Rulebook"*
      And that's "average". There are also ships of the same class that vary in size because the class of the ship is their role in battle and not the concrete indicator of their size.
      There are also thousands of types of Cruisers alone for example *(HHB3:Extermination)* so depending on the type of starship within the same class their size can vary drastically.
      There are standard Battleships of unknown classes that were stated to be 17/20/24 kilometers long. Yet more compact Battleships were 4/6/7 kilometers long (their design and role in battle is "Battleship" and not "Cruiser").
      Some huge cruisers of unknown types are 7/8/9 kilometers long.
      Grand Cruisers are mostly 7+ kilometers long and the largest known was 12 kilometers long and 2,5 kilometers wide.
      Escorts are consistently 1-2 kilometers long but there are mentions of Raiders closer to 3-4 kilometers in length.
      Every sector can build their own unique starships depending on resources and demand so it explains why ship sizes are so over the place.

      Well, the Imperium is like 12k years old, and it's basically all over the Milky Way. I think it would be very unrealistic if ship sizes and classes and shapes, armaments etc. were consistent over that many years with constant wars, supply chain problems, tech being lost and found in a galaxy spanning empire.

Or, if you care about such things, without destroying any solar system you are close by by your pure gravitation.

    Mind you, these are the Hive ships of the SCOUTING wings of the tyranid fleets. The only ones we've ever seen thusfar. The main body of the tyranids still has yet to even get remotely close. I feel like once it does, a whole other level of doom will arrive and size wise, everything will look like an ant in comparison to whats inside. Afterall, the center likely has the queen of all the tyranids, and is also likely the point by which they begin to just mow through most if not all the galaxy they've already weakened with the scouting fleets, assuming the scouting fleets didn't already devour everything *Assuming the galaxy is less prepared for them than the 40k one.
