But then... what would a viking understand of warfare?... ! Tell that to the Brits, French and Greeks. Brits and French said they were a nuisance for a time but when their states organized not anymore. Greeks said they never met them.

] SofNascimento is correct, the larger (longer) the gun, the faster the projectile. That's how magnetically-accelerated projectiles work and is stated directly in the codex. Using cutscenes, but especially the Fleets Arrive cutscene as an example is unfortunately invalid, since it really makes no sense either tactically or within the lore. I'm pretty sure Bioware themselves said they decided to make it look cool rather than make sense. Understandable, since watching dreadnaughts engage each other from thousands of kilometers away wouldn't be all that entertaining. Not to mention they were shooting at Reapers WITH EARTH BEHIND THE REAPERS!!! Major no-no in combat since, you know Sir Isaac Newton and all.

I think the Dreadnought´s rise and fall with their Primary weapons.
I ME2 they introduce the Thanix Gun. They wrote, that a lot of ships have that gun at the time of the battle of Earth, but I didn´t see the light ray I saw at the end of ME2 from any counzil ship.
How does the Thanix work? If I understand it right, the Thanix fires liquid metal instead of hard metal on his Opponent. You need very Long Barrels to bring a hard Projektile on Speed.
My question is: "Can you Speed up liquid metal with a screw like Barrel?" To imagine that, build a screw like Barrel arround the final Barrel, start at the scew and finish at the straight end of the main Barrel.
I don´t know if that would work, but if it works, you could create a gun with more Speed up distance with less space needed. Even a cruiser would have the firepower of the current battleships, and a battleship could have "one shot, one reaper dead" firepower.

Actually a good way to put it is think of it like this. and this is a completly made up scenario. It would be like if puerto rico deciding it didn't want to be part of the U.S. anymore and america responding by pulling up an air craft carrier next to the island and flying military air craft low to the ground. It would scare the crap out of them and make them think twice. Same principle just space ships and planets instead of boats and countries So in short that island of Puerto Rico defects? Hmm interesting scenario. However where would this work in Mass Effect Lore? Which species would go up to another like that and make such claim. Also there is another scenario played out for by that scenario: The one where the rebelling state cares not for the country from which it is rebelling; nor any show of force that state cares to flex and or show: "We see your dreadnought class aircraft carrier and even thought it stands higher than the statue of Liberty -we simply don't care. We will think for ourselves -Acknowledge that or suffer the consequences". *The primary state looks at each other and laughs... "Bomb them to oblivion"* *Defectors should be horrified but instead smile and click a button device.* *The big old aircraft carrier is incinerated.* *Primary state looks horrified* *Defectors smile and say: "You were saying."* Remember the old adage: Maior sunt, magis cadunt or The bigger they are the harder they fall. most of the time it makes people stand down my friend. Sometimes it doesn't that's true but it is one of the uses for massively overpowered things.

I don´t know if that would work, but if it works, you could create a gun with more Speed up distance with less space needed. Even a cruiser would have the firepower of the current battleships, and a battleship could have "one shot, one reaper dead" firepower. From the codex:
ME2:
Following the Battle of the Citadel, human and turian volunteers conducted a massive three-month recovery effort to clear the station's orbit of debris. Secretly, the turian Office of Technological Reconnaissance "volunteers" were technology recovery specialists salvaging the main weapon of the geth flagship Sovereign, and large amounts of its valuable element zero core.
Contrary to popular belief, Sovereign's main gun was not a directed-energy weapon. Rather, its massive element zero core powered an electromagnetic field suspending a liquid iron-uranium-tungsten alloy that shaped into armor-piercing projectiles when fired. The jet of molten metal, accelerated to a fraction of the speed of light, destroys targets by impact force and irresistible heat.
Only 11 months after the battle, the turians produced the Thanix, their own miniaturized version of Sovereign's gun. The Thanix can fire reliably every five seconds, rivaling a cruiser's firepower but mountable on a fighter or frigate
And from ME3:
After the Battle of the Citadel, human and turian volunteers spent three months clearing the station's orbit of debris. During the cleanup, the turians secretly salvaged Sovereign's powerful main gun along with much of the weapon's element zero core. Eleven months later, the turians introduced the Thanix, a scaled-down version of the weapon.
The Thanix's core is a liquid alloy of iron, uranium, and tungsten suspended in an electromagnetic field powered by element zero. The molten metal, accelerated to a significant fraction of the speed of light, solidifies into a projectile as it is fired, hitting targets with enough force to pierce any known shield or armor. The gun can fire reliably every five seconds.
The weapon's relatively small size allows it to be mounted on most fighters or frigates. It is now widely used by the Alliance military and is the primary weapon on the refurbished Normandy SR-2.

Nevertheless people should always think about that 1/10 possibility that it does not. For it is in those situations that events can become society or even civilization ending events. and usually those times result in lots of people dying followed by the famine and disease spread that comes after everything gets leveled. And this usually results in them still being occupied in the end. There is a reason most times people rebel it ends very badly. The original point was people use massively overpowered and over sized things are to intimadate or show off. It is just one use. The thing is giant oversized ships are not cost effective. And in the vast thing called space a few dozen cruisers instead of a gigantic drednought often works better. Also on that same result of it being intimadating it may also start a war. If the humans pulled up a dreadnought right outside the terminus systems what would likely happen

Did not humanity colonize Terminus systems. Then they became rebel state? Except they accept all people who rebel. They probably got their own Dreadnought or so by now.

No the humans took land the batarians had or were moving close to their space and batarians attacked using slavers. Then they lost and when the council wouldn't help they threw a temper tantrum and became a rouge state Ok I relooked it up and it is true the humans did not colonize the Terminus Systems for I see now that is the lawless region that contains the homeworlds of the Quarians, Vorcha, Batarians and the Volus. The Batarians went "rogue" not because the council would not help them -it was actually in spite of the council not helping them. The council was not about not give an already greedy and aggressive species even more planets and or territory. Territory that the Batarians had already taken by force when the Batarians took the independent colony founded by the Asari at the height of Batarian power in the human year 1913 (over 2 centuries before the games take place in 2180's). But they have also contested and fought Turian and Salarian colonies and research outpost in the region as well. Why would the council races of the Asari, Turians and the Salarians who have suffered at the Batarians' hands want to help them further their aggressive agenda? This basically boils down to: "Mommy he took my Planet and I want it back!" "Then the planet is his. Learn to share" Batarian gives death glare *Thank you mother I am now Darth Vader* Knowing they could not when against them; the Batarians began a propaganda campaign against humans. And thus began their other tactics of enslavement and guerrilla warfare against humans. The Batarians knew they were not a match for the council backed Humans and angry and in spite of this they realized that they were not going to get their way this time as they had with previous colonies of the council races. They basically became the spurned son that no one wants. This lead them to blaming it all on the humans and makes humans the bane of their existence and thus all excuses for anything that goes wrong is human fault...... I hate how familiar this sounds.

I thought it was that they were encroaching on them and when the batarians decided they wanted space they attacked and then got their ass's handed to them. And yeah they went wining to the council and got turned away. No. The Humans did not invade. The Humans began to colonize on the fringes of the Terminus Systems (right at the edge) as had the Salarians, Turians and as the Asari had done. A event that the Batarians saw as if the humans were invading their home star system which was still several light-years from and of these human colonies. However unlike the other three who had conceded once the Batarians began to attack them (I mean the Asari one of the more powerful races let their colony be ANNEXED by the Batarians!) the humans fought back against the bully with no teeth. Beating the Batarains WITHOUT any support from the council or even the alliance at the time. These human colonies were to be set up as in the long run as independent colonies but with the attacks by the Batarians that began when the Batarian didn't get their way; -the human colonies hoped for at the very least that the alliance would back them up (something that did not get done) and as such the human colonies were basically left on their own and to fend for themselves against the batarians. Something that the colonies could do but usually the colonies would hire mercenaries to help keep the Batarians at bay. When the batarains could not get the humans out of what they considered to be their territory; -it was then that the Batarians went crying to the council. If the human colonies HAD went rogue then they would have not been accessible by commander Shepard in any of the games with the colonies attacking Shepard: "He is from the Alliance and is a Spectre for the Council." *Colonists look at Shepard* "Get HIM!" *Dog-pile* BUT as we know that sort of event NEVER occurred. Maybe some were angry that the alliance had not at least helped them more. However when Shepard is encountered it becomes apparent that they are not "I wanna kill you for not helping us. The humans who colonized here have grown into independent stand on your own people who thing for themselves. Not to mention that the main reason the council and the alliance do not help is political and for the greater death toll from the war that would that was would erupt between the Batarians and their allies and the colonies of the Humans, Turians, Asari, and Salarians. It should also be noted that Horizon, Freedoms' Progress, and Noveria(i think) are all in the Terminus systems.

Yeah except those tigers had according to records real power about 3 centuries earlier in the games timeline... so as the titanic was sinking they were expanding and conquering. As to why they lost their ability to do continue is something I will need to look into.

An empire can really really easily fall into the paper tiger syndrome. I've often thought that America was the basis for the batarian empire. Or rather, the confederate states during the civil war days.

With the Nexus, we know that building ships close to the size of the Citadel is quite easy and can easily be funded. Except with ME1 we know the Nexus is ridiculous so we know that building ships close to the size of the Citadel are not only not easily funded and quite easy but nobody knows how to build anything that big. At around 40ish seconds. Kaiden: Jump Zero was big. But this is a whole 'nother scale. Look at the ward arms. How do they keep all that mass from flying apart? They didn't. The Citadel was part of the enigma that was then considered Prothean technology they couldn't reproduce - the Citadel and the Mass Relays.
