Seriously. Huge. This thing disrupts local gravity. Please tell me the map was originally meant for shuttles.

The city ship seen on the show? it's a Citadel dreadnought.
The ship in the breach is many times larger and likely to be their only one or one of a very few fortress ships in existence.
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.

^ me doing a barrel roll out of an exploding Fortress ship while flying a cruiser.
Sure we can! We salvage...480-960 or so whenever we complete a run...
In the second picture, you can clearly see Voyager inside the ship.
We're not talking about that ship. That ship is what Cryptic named the Citadel dreadnought.
The fortress is a Cryptic original.
vs
Note the Cube there for reference on the Fortress...
All we know for certain... is that the Voth like to build BIG. Which is fine. They're an ancient species, they have the technical knowhow to build big. Hell... that Fortress Ship is probably a step towards their own Dyson Sphere.
http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Voth_city_ship and it is exactly the same ship. I think you are confusing Cryptic's silly scaling of ships with what they should look like.
if it were to scale none of starfleet's ships would come close to matching it in size, and would be dwarfed in size.
what am i looking at here to point to your reference? it looks like the station on the border of the the Nekrit expanse and small ship docking, and i can't make out what it is.

The guy was saying that its the City Ship based on the pictures provided in his link. I admit my Voyager history is a bit rusty and didn't recognize that station as a station, but either way I'm right. It looks nothing like either the City Ship/Citadel or the Fortress I brought up.
this didn't make much sense until i realized you meant scfifan's response. after looking up the picture, the second picture fits the city ship but it looks heavily edited from the distant origin episode. and the former picture is the one you are going on about. Looks like person who put that stuff on Star Trek is getting bad information and equally bad pictures.

Which only shows the interior. And based on that screenshot... the Devs did a good job with the interior of the Fortress ship.
That's also what comes to mind for me when flying out of the Voth city ship! XD When running with friends, I usually call it "Doing a Lando!"
And knowing is half the battle!

> In the original theatrical release of Star Trek: The Motion Picture, the V'ger energy cloud is given a size measuring eighty-two au in diameter, in dialogue from the Epsilon IX commander, Branch. That measurement is equivalent to over 1.2271×1010 kilometers or 0.001 light years. Placing V'ger at the same central position as the sun would mean that the energy cloud would extend beyond the Kuiper belt, extending into the orbit of Eris, and essentially swallowing our entire solar system. For the later-released Directors' Edition DVD of the film, the cloud size was drastically scaled down to two au, which is the distance between Sol and a point between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Or twice the distance between Sol and Earth
To question the scale of our greatest constructions * is to spit upon our ancestors, denying their (literal) greatness. We are huge, we deserve huge ships and fortresses. Anyone questioning this fact is insulting not just our very physicial forms of existence, but also the greatest architects and technical minds we have amongst our species.
I will not tell you to feel ashamed; a Voth should never be ashamed of anything - but he should critically reflect upon his behaviour and ask himself why he would want to defile our culture and its achievements.

I get the necessity for size, but why the big automatic doors that allow multiple starships easy access to your vessel's tender innards? And why do those doors keep working when the ship is suffering from diminished power?

JK....lol
I agree with the thought of emergency power generation. Last thing they would want would be for their ships to get trapped inside in the event of failure. Though, why they operate for enemy ships is questionable.
Either they assumed no-one would be attempt to board the ship that way (if at all) and built it with door sensors unable to discriminate between ships or they were damaged in the inital attack.
