Star Wars vs Star Trek

[Thor]

And you still haven't added the votes from me...also put on 6 or 7 botes for Farscape, for each other person in this world that likes it

Thor, I am going to kill you one day

Have at you!!

If you haven't seen a full command carrier, with frag cannons, then you haven't seen anything

Seen it, pretty basic...*yawns* How about a Chaos Planet Killer from Battle Fleet Gothic? Able to destroy a planet in a wink of an eye and move on to the next before anyone in the proximity can even react.

The Imperial Fleet (in BFG) would kick so much ass, I mean they are so advanced, more advanced than any of the other races here that's for sure. No-one would be able to come close to penetrating even a patrol ships hull.

what about a Bolo Planet Killer Fleet. Bolo's can kill anything

[Thor]

What about a Bolo Planet Killer Fleet. Bolo's can kill anything

If we're both thinking of the same thing...they're still inferior to the Imperial Fleet.

"11915 [8928 AD] "Into the Depths" ** Valleor and the Collector vie for control of the planet-killer missile that lies at the heart of Tishranet Volcano."

The Imperial Fleet is in Earth Standard Year 4590640.M41 (or 40,640AD)...so go figure

[hotsexyangelprincess]

What about the moties? With the engineers redesigning constantly, and Warriors, easily far superior to Imperial Marines, they'd be pretty strong

[Thor]

Please just tell me we're talking about the same thing before I learn a whole new universe from scratch!!

And not only that but at the end (movie) there is only one Jedi in the galaxy. SO the borg would easily pick luke off. He was barely a jedi anyways.

You haven't read any of the books, have you?

Ummm if I recall correctly, there's no Star Wars warship that has ANY kinds of shields...

You don't. SW ships have shields and armor, as I recall from something Pullux said, ST ships just have shields. Add the increased weapons density of SW ships on top of the defensive systems, and you have trouble. I fail to see the advantage(unless you can provide power specs to prove on phaser blast more powerful than a full salvo from a star destroyer)of only being able to track with one phaser bank at a time, against being able to fire multiple turrets on one target.

What would be interesting would be to see the later ships, as they capture technology and innovate and learn from each other.

maybe this was said before, but are the Q involved?

I have to say that the combination of the cloaking technolgy, with the borg, makes Star Trek look pretty good.

And what about speed. StarTrek ships go at warp 10 max? In starwars, they just call it "light speed" so that seems slower. slow being a relative term.

[AriKorden]

Yes I have read the books. and in fact I run a New Jedi Order RPG so I know that they will come back. But just in case anyone questioned that post I invoke the full powers of -Q-. There is nothing in Star Wars that could take the continuim. Sure there is Darth Vader and Palpatine, but there is a WHOLE CONTINUIM of Q. So yeah. I rest my case.

[Xelios]

This was a close one, Star Wars could easily take on any of these, then again so could Star Trek and Stargate (not so much Stargate, but they do have the replicators and the Asguard, plus the other 2 powerful races in the big group that we have yet to meet). I picked ST though, just because I don't think the Empire (which is the major power in SW) would stand a chance against the Borg alone, much less everyone else in the series.

And what about speed. StarTrek ships go at warp 10 max? In starwars, they just call it "light speed" so that seems slower. slow being a relative term.

'Light speed' in SW can mean anything, they did a horrible job with that. For example, in The Empire Strikes Back (I think it was that one), they think the Falcon went to light speed and after like 30 mins of searching the guy says "If they did go to light speed, they could be on the other side of the galaxy by now"... not likely.

[Asguard]

actully he says they could be half way across the galaxy by now and then darth says then send out your probs

and they are on hoth

you have to rember tho that star trek is scifi and star wars is fantasy

thats why they dont care so much about tecnical details

[Xelios]

Are we thinking of the same part? I thought this was after the Hoth attack, when the Falcon escapes the Star Destroyers by sticking onto one of their bridge modules, then detaching and posing as space junk just before the SD went to light speed. That would be after the probes went out

[Asguard]

sorry your right

but they think it has a clocking device so it could have been ANYWHERE

[Gifted]

They discarded the cloaking device, they said no ship that small could have one.

[Thor]

And then the Imperial Navy developed the Stealth Tie Fighter, go figure

[Xelios]

Dammit Thor, that's not in the movies! =D

[Thor]

It's in Rebel Assault 2 and some of the books

[starhunter]

This contest would come down to three power-packed universes: Star Trek (if all races joined up, including the Borg), Dune (led by the Fremen and their Messianic leader) and Star Wars (the Jedi and Sith together would not need Clones).

And the winner would be...Star Wars, which would stomp Starfleet and their allies, then edge out over Dune after a few final lightsaber duels...and the Force would overwhelm even the Weirding Way.

[Xevious]

Spaceballs would own everybody!

[Nebuchadnezzaar]

RED DWARF BOMBS ON ALL OF THEM

[Xelios]

starhunter, Species 8472 would own the Empire all by itself =P
