I got a head ache after 2 chapters. Thats saying somthing about my tolerance for pain because i've been able to enjoy a few epoisodes of voyager and about 20 minutes of an enterprise episode. Those two chapters vs getting kicked in the nuts... chapters win by a hair but a third and i'd take a kick to the nuts.

Okay...THAT made my day!Remember, it's coming from a guy that says a Starfleet runabout (or shuttle) can withstand a Death Star superlaser blast.
I reality, the runabout would be simly vaporised by the Death Star blast, which is even a lot bigger than a runabout. I can imagine:
Tarkin: "Why did the blast impacted on the planet 0.00000001 Seconds later than calculated?"
Officer: "We think a asteroid crossed the way of the blast. It was simply vaporised. That dlayed the impact."

It was the first Star Wars vs Star Trek fic I ever read!
And you stuck with the whole issue after that load of crap, you must have nerves of steel or at the very least the ability to instantly repress any negative memories which will tend to lead to violent outbursts at a later date. Are you a postal worker by any chance?

Just read the first two chapters, and maybe I'm predjudiced by the high standards of the fanfics over here, but where was the character development, I could have lived with the federation winning by ridiculous and unbelievable factors if there was some form of character development, I'm sure many have said this, but it reads like the author decided that he wanted to write something that would prove that Star Trek would beat everything and anything in Star Wars with no real thought to plot or characters... damn his eyes, damn his britches, damn his duck pond.
I'm not sure I want to read on, I mean, I'm sure it will all get down to a game of Connect 4, which the Federation will win, because the empire is so primitive for a space faring culture that it never discovered board games...
Argh... and I just read further down... did the author ever watch Star Trek? I mean, he couldnt get much further from Picard if he tried...

Okay, guys, I'm moving this over to the Fanfic forum on the basis that it marginally ties in to a fanfic (if DITL's "Portal" can be called that). Stravo, if you don't want it there than by all means move it to the HoS or simply close it.

This is in the foreword of the story. I tend to be skepitical about the power level of Star Wars being as powerful compared to star trek ships as this group indicates but we are talking about ships that are several times larger and each tends to have as much firepower as a fleet of Federation vessels even by a skeptic.This story is for enjoyment purposes only - I was trying to write a dramatic and tense bit of fiction, not to depict what I think would actually happen if the USS Enterprise met the Star Wars Empire. In “reality” (strange word to use in this context!), I think that the events here would go MUCH more in Starfleet's favour, but pushing that argument is emphatically NOT what this story is for.
Just an aside on Portal, the pain that it caused me is deep and I will be scarred for life but some good came of it. I read Portal first then Conquest. I decided to write one of my own the rest is history. So Portal can be used for good if applied correctly.

Portal is a warning to the next 10 generations that wanking off and writing fanfic at the same time comes with to high a price.
(edit) unless its lesbian porn fanfics

I don't know... My military service begins next July and although I'm going to the signal regiment, I will be given an assault rifle. I hope that any repressed memories concerning Portal don't resurface while during the shooting range.
@ Tribun (and everyone else looking for an enjoyment)
Try this one before saying anything about Portal. Conquest is a pile of shit compared to this epic classic that will be remembered in the annals of history as the greatest work of humand mind ever.

After you are finished with that one (which shouldn't take long if you have graduated from the first class of school), here's a funneh
MiSTing of "Second Contact".
Is it still too late to send feedback to the author? Awesome work! I laughed (almost) as much as while reading "Second Contact" for the first time.
