    hahahha, you forget, the intention of this thread pits the borg as well as everyone else against all of star wars, the borg seriously kick ass even if they seem to lack any real battle strategy (move to planet->assimilate planet, regardless of defense). But there are a lot of borg, the fed's could just sit back and watch the battle.

    see the way i look at it is that if the feds can beat them (or just hold them off) then they must be as good

    so if you can wipe your ass with the fed then you can with everyone else

    But they're the borg. Resistance is futile.

    That's a lot of suns to destroy. The Borg own like, half the galaxy. That has to account for something (plus doesn't the sun crusher use a finite ammo source?).

    the sun crusher can get more misiles

    and it could probably just crash into the planet if it ran out

    this thing is indestructable

    they could fire a death star at it without marking the paint

    they droped it in a sun and it did nothing

    Then they'd cut OFF the missile source (rolls up sleeves)

    Plus didn't Qwi Xux have a change of heart or something and blow it up? This would probably happen again when they went to war with star trek...

    Croicky I know what you're talking about, I taught it was Daala who did that...not sure. The virus almost killed Mon Mothma, correct?

    A couple questions...

    Why does everyone say that star wars has a manuverability advantage?

    I agree they have the fighters but they won't help. The only reason fighters work well in Star Wars is because all the lasers are mounted on turrets which have to track the fighters. The phasers on the enterprize are mounted so that it can fire in damn near any direction without having to track the target. And do not even try to deny that the capitol ships in Star Wars are slow as shit and steer like a cow. Easy to prove that trek ships are faster in Star Wars Han Solo says the melininium falcon (the fastest ship ever built aparently) goes .5 over C (when the hyperdrive works, which means never) At low speeds a star trek ship travels multiple times C.

    How big a deal is the force?

    Heres what ive seen the force do:
    choke people
    pick up things
    sense presnce of enemy (but not well enough to know their exact position)
    mind control stupid people

    It nice but Im not thinking this is a big deal.

    Compare that to the super aliens in star Trek (mostly Q but there were quite a few others)

    The Downfall Of Star Wars

    Imperial engineering is so bad ("Hey Ive Got an idea lets build a superweapon that has near infinite destructive power but build a pathitcly obvious weakness and not try to defend it at all!")

    Most obvious examples are the death star and the ship that controls the droid army from episode 1

    actully the biggest force power is to know what your enermy will do so you can counter it and some jedi (sith really) can destroy RACES spread across the galixsy with only there minds

    Wrong. .5 is a rating given to hyperspace speed, like the Warp factor scale.

    We've had this discussion before, Hyperspace gives Star Wars ships the ability to cross the galaxy in a relatively small amount of time, whereas the ships in Star Trek take years. There was an excellent website that discussed the superioty of Hyperdrive over Warp drive, the site has been change around, but I managed to get an excerpt from the previous thread

    I'm currently trying to find the new link to the site as it has been moved recently, but when I do I'll post it up

    Resistance may be futile but firepower isn't!
