Alright who would win...

in this case.. lets do it this way..

no uber being from star trek, no q, no borg...

even field.. they both meet in a the same universe via a hyperspace/warp malfunction...

rebels and empire side..

all three major star trek team up.. romulans, klingons and feds

who would win and why.. honest and thoughtful posts plz..

no "jedi l33t rocks.."

The Star Wars side would win. They have jedi powers and the like, whereas the Star Trek side has conventional weaponry. Also, the firepower of the SW side is incredible compared to ST. A Super Star Destroyer is as big as the entire Federation fleet! A swarm of TIE fighters would whip them to shreds.

I am afraid the action would be the same on the ground as well. Phasers are no match for light sabres and pulse rifles.

But, if you were to compare acting styles and comprehensible plot lines, then Star Trek is vastly superior. George Lucas couldn't write a plausible script if he tried.

Jean luke Picard would kick those star wars guys asses. Just because he is capitan picard.

Thats a hard one. Star Trek seems the more likely to really happen if humans ever get a clue.

NO WAY!!! That bald-headed dude wouldn't even be able to defeat jar jar binks (well... maybe). But, imagine the ass-whooping he'd get from Boba fett!

Actually I find it unfair to not include the borg, q, etc. what with Jedi force powers (I believe they could take on the Borg what with all they've done in the extended universe).

Bigger doesn't equal better, Hycdubg. Look at what happened to the Super Star Destroyer in ROTJ. It was taken out by one A-wing.

Technologically, Star Trek has an advantage. Blasters are based off lasers which Trek shields can easily defend against (ie. remember the TNG episode with the smuggler and the princess and prince who secretly loved each other? When the princess' (?) father threatened with lasers, Riker jokingly asked if they should go to yellow alert). Phasers, from Trek, are much more aligned and, thus, more dangerous.

The flip side to this is the Jedi light saber. It can stop any form of energy as long as it can deal with the energy stress. If they could form shields out of this technology, the War faction would win (as long as Trek didn't find a way to shatter it continually like the lava dragon did in the Kevin J. Anderson book trilogy).

However, I give the edge to Star Wars. Q would likely never involve himself in anthing to make a difference. I think the Jedi could develop a way to be on equal terms with the Borg. And, my main reason, is that Star Wars had the majority of its ships made out of, well, utter crap. These ships were basically you're trailer park autos. If they were united together as a whole, I think they could come up with some really potent stuff. Star Trek would have to rely solely on its tech while Star Wars has its mystic Jedi and the tech potential to last long enough to develop even better products.

Yah, but James T. Kirk would be frozen and resurrected and he would just go and kick some jedi butt. Then he would go and get the green skinned hottie to dance for him.

woah duckduck no offence but I agree with your last sentence.
