The federation has marines?
[QUOTE=ricrery;2508416]And? Just like Star Trek used ideas from Doctor Who.[/QUOTE]
That's complete bullshit propaganda. First, because they both started around the same time. And second, because one has nothing to do with the other. [i]The Doctor Who ideas were modelled after Scrooge McDuck.[/i]
[QUOTE=Kittamaru;2508531]I don't really think WH40K would be as effective against Trek as you think... mostly because of the speeds of engagements. IIRC, WH40K combat is entirely sublight and often sub-mach - I mean, projectile weapons (which their main siege weapons are) are restricted to slower-than-light weapons, are they not?[/QUOTE]
Actually, their ships accelerate at 380000 Gs or something to that, way beyond Trek acceleration. They can't go FTL near planets because they go through another dimension which could consume the planet. Besides, they have laser weapons as well as a projectile that goes at .60c so it really doesn't matter.

Actually Doctor Who can out 3 years prior and Borg look like Cybermen with Dalek status (in power)

[quote]Star Trek was not directly referenced in the original 1963–1989 series of Doctor Who, although the 1966 serial The Power of the Daleks took place on a rocky planet named Vulcan, and occasionally writers have called energy weapons "phasers" (e.g. The Horns Of Nimon and Terror of the Vervoids). References to warp drive, Starfleet, and even UFP-like entities (Galaxy 4) are made frequently in the original series, but not in any Star Trek context, and some of these references even predate the Trek franchise. Around the time the Original Series began, Doctor Who began featuring a technology called Transmat which functions similar to the transporter (The Moonbase, et al). [/quote]

Even today most projectile weapons (with the exception of pistols) are [i]not[/i] subsonic.
For reference modern AFSDS rounds from a tank are approaching 2 km/sec (just under Mach 6).
(Damn!! Not that I'm sticking up warty thou :eek:).

"At the time that "The Neutral Zone" was filmed, Sylvester McCoy had been cast as the Seventh Doctor, but few of his stories had been aired in the United States."
and also, the fact that the SET DECORATING was influenced from somewhere else doesn't mean anything. And it doesn't change the fact the Doctor Who was built using ideas from Scrooge McDuck.
Was Dr. Who any good? It's one of the few original Sci-Fi's I have'nt seen.
Yes, it's still running ;)
I'll have to check into it.
[quote]A) Total mastery of baryonic space.
B) They’ve built an entire civilization that exists inside a self-enclosed infinite time-loop that extends from the big bang to the heat death of the universe, guaranteeing that only the Xeelee will be the masters of their universe.
C) Instantaneous universe wide FTL travel.
D) Frequently engage in combat at speeds of 99.99% light speed and can do so in the space of a microsecond.
E) The Xeelee handgun can destroy stars and impact even a super gas giant with the power of several Death Star beams combined, whilst simultaneously capable of killing human sized targets on a barely noticeable molecular level.
F) They built a ring several million light years in diameter designed to tap into other universes, constructed from thousands upon thousands of absorbed Galaxies.
G) Frequently use stars as kinetic kill weapons, launching them at 99.99% c.
H) The AI of a single Xeelee Nightfighter used its displacement drive to store the last few billions survivors of the Human race into a cube only several meters across (which to them was perceived to be several light years in diameter), it then mined materials and re-constructed Earth in less than a week.
I) A Human in a civilian space suit wrapped himself inside a molecule thin sheet of Xeelee construction material and survived a supernova.
J) The Culture destroy planets by breaking too hard, the Xeelee unintentionally flatten Galaxies and often react in the same way as a Truck driver being woken up by hitting a Rabbit on the road.
The Xeelee are basically the type of civilization that would accidentally destroy other civilizations such as the Culture, the Forerunners and the Necrons in microseconds and not even realize it until it was too late.[/quote]
More proof Irkens stand 0% chance against Xeelee?

Alright. :bugeye: So basically, from all that, they are the most irresponsible race in any universe.
I call Downstreamers to the stage! Controlling the multiverse is broken.
I call to the stage:
God
Lol...
God isn't multiversal.
Who knows. God may be confined to one universe or is a being of the mulitverse. He may even be the creator of the mulitverse itself. Or maybe God is an eccentric japanese high school girl looking for aliens, time-travelers and espers.
Next time: Put the Xeelee Sequence in so everyone votes them or they're a fanboy or ignorant or both :p

LMAO LOL That's the best one I've heard yet LOL :roflmao:
I'm sending the Borg a present, a XEELEE NIGHTFIGHTER is coming to blow up every planet, system, and etc.

well considering that ship is just a scout ship the Borg would assimilate it. Making the Borg much more advanced and harder to kill.
Prove it. The Xeelee Nightfighter is a solar system buster with a weapon that can do anything. As well as being wrapped in indestructible material called Construction Material, I doubt they can do anything to it. Add in Xeelee hurl galaxies as bullets in wars, it wouldn't matter.
