    In my last post, I explained how Q can die, If they can die, that means they have to reproduce somehow, otherwise how would you have Q and q's son?... Not to mention, time goes by much faster in the Q continuum than in normal space.

    A Species 8472 Bio Ship most likely can obliterate the east coast easily, considering it can blast a Cube in one shot, and it only takes 8 Bio Ships to power the Weapon Focusing ship which can demolish planets.

    Also, I doubt that the Federation would fire against people from Earth. They would most likely just help The SGC in anyway they can to help defend Earth from its enemies, if it ever came to that.

    Asgard shield strength seems to be drained if it is hit on any side, while the Star Trek ships can divert power to sections of the shield, Forward and aft for most ships and the Sovereign has Forward, Aft, Ventral, and Dorsal shields. Also since some Federation ships employ Bio Neural gel pack technology, they can maneuver and enter commands faster than most Stargate ships. But as I said, I doubt that the Federation would fight Earth.. but rather negotiate with them and try and help them. Also its not hard to hit a Star Gate ship as it seems that they don't move much when they fire. Starfleet may not offer the SGC and its ships, phaser technology but, may help them develop weapons superior to railguns and missiles, after all, it is Earth.

    Star Trek ships shields are also limited by power, the more power they put into them, the more punishment the shields can take, But, they need to allocate power to other systems on the ship, such as Weapons, Life support, engines, they have no choice but to let the shields fall, if it comes to that, and power only the emergency shields when there are hull breaches.

    I don't agree...the Q don't reproduce. Apparently there is a set number of them. Voyager's crew managed to overwhelm them with small away team armed witht their weapons...

    True we don't know how many there are in all but...come on...

    no doubt


    I agree.

    we can't determine that yet...Trek has had the same problems with their shields. The Borge frequently took out the whole shield.

    What if they were fighting for...Earth...


    True...but it's truely limited by the amount of damage the equipment takes. A shield can be taken out with out busting through it...Like DS9...The powersurge can take out the generator and bring the shields down.

    Which brings me to another point. Star gate seems to have full protection untill the shield goes down. At least the Asgard do...The human ships have shown that kind of resilance. But, they need to allocate power to other systems on the ship, such as Weapons, Life support, engines, they have no choice but to let the shields fall, if it comes to that, and power only the emergency shields when there are hull breaches.[/QUOTE]

    Actully, they can reproduce. Their only few when universe first formed, so they made some more of them selves, plus they like to sleep with mortal. Nm, the exscuse why lol. Only reason q can even die is they strip another one of their powers. Which is what fighting was about, taking way other Q's powers.

    So have we finally ended this debate. Can we finally put it to bed yet?

    Here's a question far ya. If Q is here from the beginning and is evrywhere.

    Wouldn't the be in the SW and Stargate universe too?

    For them the ST vs SW would be nothing more than Federation vs Romulans or the Empire vs the Rebels.

    but i wonder; if the Q can be overwhelm with bij Janeway and kan be wounded and killed than infact wouldn't the federation eventually win from Q? a meer question


    Saquist. In stargate SG1 I saw ones a episode where a dude creates a shield round a gate and with evry fire anyone took it got bigger till it covered the whole planet. Let the federation or Empire beat that.:shrug:

    or maybe they can use that plant that grow rapidly with light. Put one seed on a homeplanet ST or SW.

    Q has no gripe against the federation , just fascination,
    Also, The Enterprise is more than a Match for an ISD.
    The Asgard are a depleting race, they cannot reproduce either.
    With the shield that absorbs energy, all ST has to do is get Q or a transphasic cloak.
    Against the Replicators, Borg will assimilate them.
    Also, the Federation is reasonable so i doubt they will be fighting for earth.

    I agree. Of course isn't StarTrek weak.

    It's just that StarWars is in disadventige. Don't forget the Episode 4 is from the late 70's and the new movies are prequels so the technology can't be more advanced.

    So 6 movies against what? about 10 movies en 6 or 7 spinoffs.

    if you put 'A new hope' against the first StarTrek movie and Stargate : its a whole different ballgame don't ya think. Now if there would be a few spin-offs from SW the odds would be equal.

    And all that debating off who has the better shields is futile. In ST there was and episode where there was a small vessel attached without them knowing it. And didn't luke destroy the deathstar with a simple x-wing and a torpedo.

    I joined this treath to learn some details about sci-fi shows; but al this hostile attitudes between SW-fans and ST-fans is something i'll never understand. It's sci-fi for crying out loud.

    and now ..............on with the debate

    It all boils down to this:

    StarWars has the early advantage in that their individual ships are VERY hard hitting. HOWEVER

    Star Trek ships can take a lot more punishment and the power of the photon torpedo means even the smallest Federation vessel is a threat. The Q can nullify the Jedi/Sith wih ease and the 8472 ships (and even Borg vessels) can completely obliterate a planet.

    Lemme break it down for you:

    Wars Advantage :
    Size (people and ships)
    Direct Speed
    Combat Orientation

    Trek Advantage:
    Firepower
    Manuverability and Speed
    Combat Effectiveness
    Accuracy
    Range
    Damage Output
    Damage Absorption
    Durability
    Q
    Power Output

    Wars Disadvantage:
    Reliance on the Force
    HyperSpace is unilateral and must be plotted
    Poor shields/armor
    Weapons are turreted (can be destroyed)
    Fighters have poor/no shields

    Trek Disadvantages:
    Warp is slower than Hyperspace (not by much though)
    Ships are not all combat designs

    Even the biggest ship or most advanced one can be destroyed by one individual (not counting Q that is)

    St. Obtain a shutlle; smach it up; put a chapeshifter in it and send a distresssignal. Wait for the first ship ta saves ya once on board. Boom

    SW same idee; putt a fedaration man in stormtroopers suit. termodevice in pocket. passing at the powerutily and boom.

    It's not only who has the biggest and badass ships it's who has the best guerillia tactics and kamikazies to match then up.

    Or find a way to infect the ship with a virus. you can even choose 1 that effects lifeforms or one that infects the technology.

    Wouldn't work- during transport, ShapeShifters are detected by the trace changes in their cellular structure.

    Vasago, not to be mean mate, but work on your english a little- i can't make much sense of a couple of your posts (then again, it's 6:30 in the morning)

    Well I'm sure the Last Sith Lord Darth NutJob will return.

    Yeah, that was one of the first Ori Episodes as they built that huge Star Gate. That was incredible....I still think Star Gates universe is too much for Star Trek.
