I formally Surrender...

Post by Sothis »

In the issue of Star Trek V Star Wars, I formally surrender to the ICS and it's 200GT calcs... and the Empire's enormous resource advantage...

I did indeed get your message, sorry for not replying sooner, but the politics of work have been stirring :)

When I post chapter 2, I'll make the change to the txt style look. Thanks for the advice :)

Shouldnt it be a debate by debate situation?, if he means who would win in a war between the Feds and the Imps how could anyone think the feds could win (baring some devine intervention of technobabble weapon).

There are legions of Pro-Trek debators who beleived such, and many still do.

There are also Pro-Trek debators who simply accept that Wars will win all out war, and work on lessening the scale of hte beat-down.

I just enjoy debating and I also like an uphill battle :D .

The only way trek could win is if you take trek high end and wars low end - even then a trek victory would require the imps to simply give up because it was to much trouble to take over the feds.

That may be why you're a sensible Pro-Trek debator.. When we keep you away from One Week Wonders. :P

No, you see Trek wins because they'll destroy all the ISDs with transphasic torpedoes while absorbing all turbolaser shots with their navigational deflectors which are immune to lasers then they'll use Quantum Slipstream drive to get to the Empire and use the Genesis Device on Coruscant... :twisted:

No, that's not my opinion, but somebody told me that the other day..

FYI... I never disagreed with the FTL figures, numerical superiority, and industrial capabilities of the Empire. I do disagree with the firepower calculations, but the end result was never in question as far as I am concerned. :wink:

If you're not accepting the 200GT HTLs, you're not accepting a BDZ.

What's with those Trekkies using the Genesis Device against Imperials? And they extrapolate the power of a TPT to the point where it can destroy the Star with one.

Well, we'll just have to wait and see how many transphasic torps and how much Batmobile armor we see in Nemesis.

I don't. The BDZ is not canon.

I hate to brake it to you, but GL did say that the SW books and computer games were not a part of his story line and therefore not canon. I think the same would go for your 200GT figure from the ICS.

Oh... TOO BAD. :P

Oh no, of course there is no BDZ, the ability to render a planet uninhabitable is well beyond the capabilities of the same people who can built battle stations that has the firepower to blow up planets into bite sized debris.

If I had a nickle for every idiot. Hey a nickle!
Hmmm I think I like this turn of events

Oooh another nickle which must mean...


Another idiot!

I hate to hit you repeatedly over the head with a large blunt object so I won't but the fact remians Lucus DID NOT say that, The specfic quote you refer to is when Lucus says the EU is nice but he will trample over it as he pleases

You don't understand the rules of Cannon do you?
(Prehaps another miffed idiot Trecky debator mad that ST Novels are Not Cannon while SW's are?)
EU is Offical, Offical is Cannon and if we took a moment to indulged your delisouslal fantasys the Astroid Sceane alone places FP of TuboLasers at anywhere from 400 Mega-tons to 89 Giga-tons

That being said its still Cannon that most Federations ships fall in less that 100 Mega-tons of damage :P

Sorry to be stating the obvious, but you're wrong. If the only thing you're good for is twisting GL's statements out of context, then you should perhaps consider joining the STGN forums and leave thinking people the fuck alone.
