You think a super carrier can handle the eclipse super laser?

>board gets on my case whenever I talk about mechs because they'/re "too impractical"
>but gigantic floating targets that cost billions in fuel to fly and have easily accessible weakspots is somehow okay

That will never not irk me.

Does the Empire have a Death Star in this scenario?
That's really all that matters

What are shields

>ragtag group of rebels manage to blow up two death stars
>the fucking Covenant won’t be able to

The Covenant is more than strong enough to destroy the station with brute force. They don’t need some silly weak point.

Once they are that big it doesn't matter since it's going to take fucking forever to destroy it with anything less than a super weapon.

The Covenant can't use the force so the Death Star I would be fine

Empire always has a super weapon or two in the works

We're talking capital ships you know the thing the death star can hit?

>shiplets

Didn't someone do the math on this and find that the tech in star wars used up magnitudes more energy had had magnitudes increased protection and firepower than pretty much anything in Halo?

The flood would wreck tyranids

>Empire that has a galactic arm's worth of resources at it's disposal
>Empire that has an entire galaxy worth of resources at it's disposal

Hmm, I wonder why people think the GE would win against the Covenant.

It always comes down to whos in charge.

A conglomerate of religious fanatics, or totalitarian space wizard capable of sensing people dying on the other side of the galaxy, who can manipulate your thoughts, dreams and desires and could literally assassinate you by thinking about you (Sidious is seen choking people through communication lines, not even being a lightyear away.)

Covenant definitely has the tech to overwhelm the empire, but it would be all for naught, as these things would slowly become the Emperor's property.

Magic and Space weapons vs Space weapons
Gee I wonder who'll win

Covenant has entire squads of troopers with cloaking technology specifically trained for behind enemy line missons, they can very well easily infiltrate all the Empire strongholds more easily unlike those fag rebels.

What about forerunner tech?

Post forerunner tech, that makes me hard as diamonds.

>technology is shittier
>Empires infantry would most likely keel over from simple needlers and plasma pistols
>no shields
Ishggyd

Wtf is magic going to do when your moon base just got glassed

>A fucking space bottle opener.

Nothing cause the Emporer doesnt give a fuck.

Know what would happen?

Sidious would literally just drop everything he's doing and seek out who ever commands that weapon and usurp them. He would look like divinity to the already religious creatures. They would likely worship this guy.

Sidious just isn't the type of dwell on things. His base gets rekt, his weapon is destroyed he installs a new strategy almost instantly. Loss means nothing to him, he believes he will always triumph, as he always has.

>My galactic cancer can outdo your galactic cancer!

Everyone in this fucking thread needs to stand next to a primed halo ring.

>5 neatly packed planets

Be an awful shame if someone 1 hit ko'd them

Do not underestimate the power of the force.

>technology is shittier
citation needed, also, at least they know how to build and operate their shit, the covvies make the adeptus mechanicus look good.

>Empires infantry would most likely keel over from simple needlers and plasma pistols
>plasma pistols

All empire weapons are plasma tech you mongoloid, that shit is so common, it's mass manufactured and sold to god damn civilians in the GE.

>no shields
SWverse has had personal shield generators as far back as the mandalorian wars.

>no shields

Are you retarded?

Sidious needs a new body every other day because he's literally falling apart.

>personal shield generators
Doubt that the average Imperial grunt has them, hell not even clone trooper armour had shields and was designed for better soldiers.

>make a new Star Wars film
>have a chance to do something exciting and original
>make another fucking Death Star instead

What did JJ mean by this?

Yeah, it would make sense to have screens hundreds of kilometers away from the ship core and emptiness (or hydrogen/helium) in between. A compact starship is silly since there's no need whatsoever for them to be aerodynamic.

*sternly reprimands your civilization*

Idk I have hope that the New one wont just rip off empire as bad as 7 did

>release flood spores in the shit wars universe

what now

>shoots energy beam at something that moves at ~c

Pretty sure your average Stormtrooper has no personal body shield considering how they just crumple over from one shot to the chest, whereas the Covenant elites who are the backbone of the Covenant army all have personal energy shields.

thats some noncanon nonsense.

>both collect biomass to survive
>flood doesn't have psyker abilities aside from the gravemind
>carnifex + warrior strain is ok af.
>genestealers cults
>we've only seen the scouting fleets of the tyrannids
Tyrannids would flatten the flood within days

probably on mechs too.

>Death star any infected planet

That was easy

JJ plays it too fucking safe with the reboots.

That's not the covenant.
Sw universe can retort with the creatures known as the "wills", omnipotent beings neither living or dead, the living embodiment of the force, they would literally end the galaxy on a whim.

Zombie jedi

*blocks your path*

>implying he couldn't just murder everyone of the covenant leaders

>DS1
>intentional vulnerabilities built into it because muh disdain
>DS2
>forest buddies helped
I guess it comes down to if Covenant can befriend ewoks to take out the most incompetent footsoldiers in the history of ever

But Star Trek 2009 was actually quite original and interesting

Get outta here with your space buttplug.

>literal AT-ATs, alongside Sloth walkers.
>Hyper duper super star destroyer
Proably will be sadly.

Good form user, Warhammer Marines would crush all in Halo AND Star Wars universe!

Please, the imperium aren't even the most advanced civ in their setting.

Yeah, but could both the Empire and the Covenant take over The City?
The answer is no

>empire has point defense so shit they can't even stop manned ships
>nobody ever thinks to just build ships that spam missiles or uses droneswarms, instead they all rely on meatbags

Well in the Dark Age of Technologie Era they were.

Why doesnt he do that in his own setting?

Yet the smurfs never fail

>what were masss produced clone troopers
>what was the separatist wars

Did you even watch star wars dude, they literally have that.

It would actually be a contest between the Imperium and the rest.

Halo lorefag here: Fleet sizes in the Halo universe are a lot smaller AFAIK then in star wars, even the largest offensive covenant fleets have a few hundred ships at the absolute largest, the Empire also has a logistical advantage since they control far more actual intergalatic territory then the Covenant ever did. Intergalatic space is fucking huge, and that's taken seriously in Halo: the UNSC controls likely less then 200, if not less then 100 colonies, and the Covenant at most only controls a significant portion of the Orion arm, and even then I suspect that that's not effective infrastructure covering that whole region, and is more "empty space being claimed".

Star Wars in general holds itself to a lot less realism then Halo lore does, it's far closer to the science fantasy/soft sci fi end of the soft to hard sci fi spectrum, which allows it as a franchise to do more ""impressive"" things in terms of feats then, Halo, at least outside of Forerunner era stuff which is biblical tier batshit.

tl;dr Star Wars is at an advantage relative to Halo (outside of Forerunner era stuff) since Star Wars is far less grounded with it's technology and scale then Halo is.

I don't think using those sorts of values has any real merit in these discussions, because the feats or visuals for for energy weapons generally isn't really made with actual physics in mind. Noting that, say, the Death Star can blow up a planet is obviously a useful piece of information, or if a book or line in a piece of media explictly gives numbers for how fast or how much force a projectile has; but extrapolating the actual energy requirements for a blaster with megawats of energy it uses and guessing the amount of physical damage isn't because that's multiple layers of assumptions for throwaway thing the author didn't think about.

You need to do more research on large scale flood infection levels and neural physics shit.

Halo has those too in the Precursors.

That's not a space buttplug, that's the ship Mistake Not My Current State Of Joshing Gentle Peevishness For The Awesome And Terrible Majesty Of The Towering Seas Of Ire That Are Themselves The Mere Milquetoast Shallows Fringing My Vast Oceans Of Wrath. Say something nice to it!

The rebels dont have much resources for spam attacks

>He doesn't know about the Logic Plague
>He doesn't know how the Flood actually work
>He thinks that consuming Flood biomass would end in any way other than the Flood subsuming the Tyranids
The Nids can't even beat the Orks. They're literally a nonfactor in modern 40k. The only factions more battered and worthless are Tau and DEldar, because the former has always been nothing and the latter lost 90% of what they had in an asspull even Tzeentch and Slaanesh would find distasteful

>Have a death star in this scenario
The Eclipse is right there.

YOU'RE ALL VERMIN
Seriously the Vorlons would decimate pretty much any other race probably even the Chozo

thats why you cover them with more countermeasures than a preteen has pimples

Yeah no, the CSV Look How Clever I Think I Am looks like a giant buttplug.

I-it's just the angle

>Rebels
>Rag-tag

I don't know. There's lots of people that were against the Empire. They don't have the resources the Empire has for a full on capital ship slugfest, but they are still well organized and have lots of excellent pilots and strategists working for their cause. It's guerilla warfare in space and there's been a few times where the guerillas have come out on top.

I mean it's the Rebels that pushed the production of the Death Star in the first place, right? There was discord in the Empire both with the rebels and plenty of other planets that weren't too happy about being controlled by them. The Empire knew kind of where some of the Rebel hideouts were but couldn't find them by invading the surface so they built a super weapon to just vaporize whole planets. Doesn't seem like something they would do against a rag-tag terrorist group. It's not napalming the jungles, it's glassing entire countries.

look at this sexy sonbitch, forget crappy nu-battlefront why can't we have a space dogfight+warship game? why does ea have to hold the vidya arm of snor wars hostage

i have a question btw, could the imperial guard (not the imperium) rivalise and beat the new order and/or the covenant empire in a crusade?

Don't forget, an "inexperienced' Padawan is now training with a master on some remote planet in which they are in exile.

>Death Star the whole galaxy

Necrons and Forerunners are roughly on par IIRC, at least with tech

Looks like a very deformed Emoji

Tarkin is mad enough to do it.

*blocks ur path*

>give the imperium a death star
>tell them the galaxy is heretical as fuck
Problem solved.

If she leaves because her friends are in trouble then I'll start getting worried.
>Hey saved my friends better go check on my jedi mast-..... oh he ded.

Star Wars stomps the covvies in space. But the covvies have the advantage on the ground.

I get the first order tskes obvious inspiration and design from the empire but why redesign the at at to be like a gorilla

>tfw no Vorlon or Shadow Planet Killer.

>He thinks the overminds control can be out done by the grave mind even when infected instead of creating a whole new strain of tyrannids.
Cry some more halofag

...

No, they were maybe a bit below pre-fall eldar at that point, but they have never been the most advanced civ in the 40Gay setting. That title belongs to the necrons by default, because the old ones no longer exist(they used to share first place with the necrons, until the necrons killed them).

The Finalizer is already a 'super duper Star Destroyer', so much to that it isn't actually a Star Destroyer, it's a Battlecrusier. The Supremacy is just Snoke wanting to wave his dick across the stars

TFW the black enemy would decimate any fictional faction.

What you gonna do elf boy, call my dad I DON'T GIVE A FUCK.

The math on shield strength and weapons strength has been crunched years ago and proven Empire > Covies.

However now that much of the Star Wars canon has been thrown out Halo > Star Wars in terms of universe power level as a whole.

It's called "The last Jedi" Luke is all but guaranteed to die at least, so they may not copy it 100%, but it's already another rip off of the original trilogy.

Gravemind could just will tyranids out of existence

*Rises from the sea*
*Blocks your path*

Necron's didn't kill the old ones, it was the Krorks that got bored once the Necron's went to sleep and finished off the remaining Old Ones because they never had a fucking off switch grown on them.

That isn't that big for outer space. A ship that size wouldn't engage another ship except from extremely far away. It's like asking why aircraft carriers are a thing because they're so big. What they're floating around in so much bigger than them they're not that huge of a target. You'd also have escort craft just like a naval battle.

Even better he's delusional

Arent the lasers used in Star Wars supposed to be ludicrously, ridiculously powerful? Plus theres the fact that the Empire has super powerful space wizards in Vader and Palpatine

>Any Nid breathes in a Flood Spore
>The Tyranids are now in a terminal logic-based plague that crushed the Forerunners and their AI in a matter of months
Bruh. High tier flood bend space and logic. Nids are just knock-off Zerg now, considering what they used to be.

I've never played Halo because I don't play shit games, but weren't the covenant brought down by a single guy in power armor? Also the flood but mostly it was a single guy holding back the entire army, right?

>he doesn't know what star roads are
pshh nothing personell kid
*neural physics on your entire fleet*

>The last Jedi
It's plural, translated titles at least.
If this means anything in the end is another issue.

*blocks your Super Carriers path*

This was already disproven by someone posting a Vorlon. They're literally biologically immortal.
