[quote who="ManSh00ter" reply="430" id="2947069"]Well now, it IS a well known fact that Stormtroopers can't shoot worth a damn. It must be those helmets. Also, any Star Trek captain worth his salt could easily detonate Imperial ships and especially stations by creating feedback loops in the primary reactor power control via directed beams of theta particles. In fact, they wouldn't even need a proton torpedo and a small thermal exhaust port.[/quote] I'

Star Trek have transporters and can teleport assault teams directly on the bridge of a SSD and phaz0r Darth Vader inna face. But Star Wars have hyperdrives and could be "on the other side of the galaxy by now". For example glassing Earth while that assault team finds out whether lightsabers can deflect phaser beams or not.

In the case of the Doctor, he's a bloody Time Lord. He'll do whatever the hell he wants.

There was never any debate or doubt WRT that. OTOH, I fully understand that no Trek power, even if the entire Trek galaxy allied together, could stand up to the Empire.

And Picard simply could not pass as an Imperial officer, because he lacks the moral ambiguity that many of said officers are marked by. If he's ordered to do a BDZ of a civilized world, he's going to say "no", and then his cover's blown. Quite frankly, only the good Doctor poses any threat to th

[quote who="Zeta1127" reply="412" id="2945829"]Due to the vast technological disparity between the Empire and the Federation, in my opinion, the Federation's only hope for survival is to ally with the Alliance and the New Republic, depending on when the crossover occurs. Otherwise, the Federation will probably crumble in such a dire scenario like the New Republic did during the Yuuzhan Vong War. The tremendous differences in weapons yield between Wars and Trek tech just aren't meant t

[quote who="Sinperium" reply="392" id="2945670"]The extra dense armor would explain the slow and clumsy movement of large SW capital ships (actually, the need for cinematic drama is what really explains that) and I'd say the relatively nimble and fast ST ships would certainly be able to use the same tactics Sir Drake did.[/quote] Except for the fact that SW ships tend to have multiple, traversing/elevating weapons emplacements scattered about the hull, several of which are ind

It doesn't have to make any sense from a lore-perspective. It just has to be balanced and fun. Even though in an actual conflict between the Empire and Federation the Feds would be squished like small bugs, in a mod for a game, each side has to have an equal chance of winning. Obviously, this will not be the case
