well, although i think i like star wars a little bit more, star trek would obliterate star wars. Sure the enterprise and the humans wouldnt do to much. But the other species in star trek are so much more expansive and so over powered that the jedi couldnt even stand up to them. For one we hae the borg, who after a few minutes of being shot with a certain laser become immune to that frequency, their ships are the same way. In addition to the borg there are also there is the 8472 species which has a ship simply name "planet killer" its like the death star only portable. It can warp around and move a decent speed while still maintaining the destructive power of the death star, and theres is 8 of them. The same species has another ship called the bioship which is impervious to all know conventional weapons in the star trek universe, and there are a few thousand of them. Theres also the Krenim temporal weapon which uses time travel to eliminate species. Also like the person a few comments above said there are the also the q. Theres many more but i think ive gotten my point across lol. and i have to get back to work...lol
LOL. Oh well, I guess I will chime in - it has been a while for me. Universe vs. universe? Q. And a dozen other high-level reality altering species. And various temporal agencies. Not to mention the Borg - they alone could take down the SW universe.
If we are talking fleet to fleet action - SW wins due to strategic concerns. Tactically they are outmatched on virtually every front - even if you factor in that moronic gigaton firepower that Curtis Saxton gave every ship in his illustrated SW books. ST ships are tactically faster, more maneuverable, have shields that allow them to survive in more difficult conditions (corona of a star), can cloak, etc. Not to mention immensely better fire control and targeting capabilities.
Not to mention that the SW universe appears to be populated by mildly retarded people - virtually no technological or scientific progress in the 40 years between Ep1 and Ep3. And that's if we ignore horrible computer systems that they were able to imagine/implement with 1970's special effects. If you take books into account - the ones that mention technology from hundreds of years ago - then it becomes just sad.

And shotguns. And phasers set to wide beam. And rocks. And lots of blasters fired at once, from multiple directions. And grenades.Haliwali said:
Nope - not if the phasers are set on wide beam - like 10-20 degree dispersal.NickCaligo42 said:This raises possibly the nerdiest question ever asked.
Do lightsabers deflect phasors?
Hell, let's toss some other factions into the fun, break out of the Star Wars vs. Star Trek retro-mold....
How about..
The Galactic Empire (of Palpatine) vs The Imperium of Man (WH40K): Yes, AT-ATs were nifty, but an Imperium Titan would walk on on a leash, like a dog. And Star Destroyers? Pshaw, fear the might of the Imperial Navy! And forget about the SSD Eclipse versus any Hive Fleet ....
The United Federation of Planets Trek vs Muad'dib's Fedaykin: Fanatical religious zealots by the *billions* trumps enlightened pacifistic societies... any day..
Kligons vs. Daleks: EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!
Death Star vs Space Cruiser Yamato: eh, on one hand, both possess the power to destroy a planet. On the other hand, the Yamato can *manuever*.
Borg vs. Tyranids: Borg - "Resistance is Futile. We shall add your biological diveristy to our own". Tyranid Trygon - "Hissss.... :chomp:".
I mean, come on, let's put some REAL VARIETY into this!

Yes, yes I am.
You forgot the elite force of Chinese Panda's that took Kyushu for 2 months in 1944 before being driven out by a unit of magically powered riceballs and Sushi.
the only problem with this comparison it is like comparing the star trek universe vs us in about 100 years sure we could do some dmg to them but just by sheer attrition that would win the fight. here is a nice link that will give you some info on the subject http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uT7U50Kpl9A so by that starwars would win for sure. just my two cents.
