The Galactic Empire vs. The Covenant and Yuuzhan Vong

Don't take things so literally.

Kinda hard when you wargame too much.

That would work, but there are so many systems in the galaxy that it would be difficult to leave a scorched galaxy. I think a better action would be a Stalingrad type battle on a planet.

Lucien, inflict so many casaulties that the enemy wouldn't want to take that system anymore. As soon as the amount runs up into the hundreds of thousands then into millions, I think any government would cease their offensive operations.

Considering that, in the course of two days, the Tyranid fleet would go from 2.5 to 5 BILLION soldiers...

No.

I'll throw this at you. What if Palpatine and Vader had the SF at their disposal?

Then they could use outdated, obsolete technology to slightly curb the disparity between production capabilities of the two organizations. It wouldn't really make much difference though.

Unless the Starforge can output billions of ships in two days, which it can't, and unless the Empire has billions of pilots just laying around to fly those ships, which it doesn't, it won't matter.

Clones or AI.

It took twenty years for them to make a few million clones. 😐

So the Tyranid would be able to defeat the Sith? I'm not so sure about that, but stranger things have happened.

With ease, yeah.

The Empire has she strongest fleet in galactic history. There is no fleet in Star wars history that has ever been stronger than the Empire. Thus, if the Imperials can't defeat the Tyranid then no other force can.

A theory - what if another character comes along like Revan who is able to easily turn Jedi to the darkside and use them for his will and use them in the war?

Um... how will that help turn the tide against a force containing billions of beings?

Just thinking - mass Thought Bombs across the galaxy at key systems in the galaxy.

Would do jack shit.

Because, the Vong are immune to the Force, in case you did not know.

This is a misconception. The Vong could not be sensed in the Force by the Jedi; most of the metaphysical attacks -- telekinesis, Force lightning, ect. -- worked on them just fine.

By the way. here's some new information about the Remnant's nanokiller courtesy of Invincible: it took the Remnant less than a day to develop one for Tenel Ka and Allana (and the Hapan family). They were able to manufacture tons of it and instructed the Galactic Alliance to dump it on Mandalore; the entire planet was infected and is lethal to the entire Fett family.

Best advantages of the nanokiller: according to Moff Lecerson, it doesn't have to be tailor made to one specific set of genes -- the nanokiller for the Hapan family was derived from samples taken from the imprisoned Prince Isolder (Tenel Ka's father) and it would work just as lethally on the rest of his family, despite the fact that their genetic structure isn't identical. Lastly, as long as the nanokiller is exposed to sunlight every few days, "it can last forever."
