That really puts things in perspective that does. It's amazing how the humble Star Destroyer is the big daddy despite all the post Star Wars galarchitecture. It's as if Lucas knew that his measurements would measure up and stand the test of time. As we know though from top trumps, if these guys all had a race, the Star Destroyer would be screwed.
