	Your Very Own Imperial Stardestroyer Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

One day you're walking out in the woods and you find a shuttle. Hopping into the shuttle, it's flown out into Orbit onto a waiting Imperator class Star Destroyer.

Said Star Destroyer is fully loaded. There are thousands of Droid technicians on board, hundreds of thousands of spare parts, ranging from spare propulsion units to light bulbs. The ISD appeares to be abandoned, but there is no disease/horrifying acidic blooded aliens on board. In addition, there's a full complement of Smaller craft and ground equipment. A cursory study of the databanks reveal the languge is remarkably similiar to (insert primary language here) and has vast amounts of knowledge, blueprints, etc. Not just engineering schematics, but schmatics of how to build the technology nescecrray to build the tech to build the ship. As well as the basic physics behind it.

What do you do? What do you do?

This should've been a multiple choice poll. Surely I could move on to interstellar domination after I 'splode Paris.

Take to a cousin of mine that runs a chop shop. Within 12 hours parts will be sitting in pawn shops and junk dealers all over the south east.

He'll be able to dissasemble a 1.7km warship with the volume of a hundred Enterprise-Ds, and super dense neutronium hulls (with most likely dangerous fuel in the engines) in Twelve hours?

HE may be the person we want to talk to, tech wise.

Why would I give the ground force to America when I could conquer?

I'd send some shuttles down for some of my family and friends, then get the hell out of the system. Maybe I'd shoot the **** out of earth on the way out.

You'd still hold the High ground. My theory is I would hand over a handful of vehicles and weapons for America to back-engineer. America and nations that are sympathetic will man my armies. Also, If I want to consider using the database to build some sort of starfleet (obviously, nothing as large or complex as an ISD) I'd needed Aerospace Heavy countries like the USA, Russia, Japan, Canada, China, India and Brasil to help out.

And France too, I guess. Course, they might be mad after I 'Splode Paris.

I would share enough tech to allow folks to live on other worlds, but not get to other worlds.

Then I'd operate an exploration/shuttle service.

...and thus, The Guild was born...

It'd be much more flashy and in the style of your ship to conquer than to become the Ferengi.

Depends. If the Pals see you levelling Israeli cities in addition to theirs and the Israelis see the same thing in reverse, they might actually welcome your rain of terror.
