Its shields were down.
Explain to me why in Star Trek ramming is an effective tactic.
Your wattage to megatons translation is completely off...So it's either 1 or the other. At least get your stats right before using them otherwise shifting the goalposts makes the entire debate unworkable.
These are canon stats. Like it or not, 2.4 million megatons is far more powerful than 1160 megatons.
Yet the tsar bombs gave out yottawatts of energy compared to your gigawatts of energy.
See in inconsistencies of your argument?
The LIGHT turbolasers were hundreds of millions of gigawatts (note that the magnitude difference between the different watt levels is by a factor of 1000, so hundreds of millions would exceed that). The heavy turbolasers would be far more.
You're still dodging the point. 2.4 million megatons vs 1160 megatons.
How would they not?
Stupid argument.
Again.
"How would they not" - I don't have to prove a negative. You made the claim that those bioships would destroy Star Wars starfighters. You have to prove it.
No...It was a real black hole...And no...It wasn't the small black hole that destroyed Vulcan that they escaped from...It was the massive black hole caused by the entire amount of red matter.
You're arguing with what was seen on screen...The 1st and extremely inferior enterprise withstood being within a few hundred feet of a black hole...fact.
Yet this has nothing to do with shields, since no amount of shielding can stop a black hole.
They drained them at a % so the initial starting point would be irrelevant.
That's an impossibility. They can't simply drain them at a %. They would have to drain them at a certain rate. Otherwise, why drain 50% of a 2 gigawatt shield when you're capable of draining 50% of a 200 gigawatt shield, which would be enough to easily drain a 2 gigawatt shield?
Good for them.
Yep.
The Borg alone have billions of worlds...They occupy 1/10th of the galaxy. They've created a massively larger fleet of far larger ships...This requires a larger infrastructure....Fact.
Huh? You changed it from "millions" to "billions"?
I've already shown that fleet numbers do not equate to industrial might.
Oh, and your "omg they occupy 1/10th of the galaxy!" claim is bogus. Star Wars civilization by the PT has not only occupied pretty much every inhabitable planet, but has also mapped out every star system in the galaxy. Obviously Star Trek hasn't done this since the Enterprise still has the objective of discovering new life.
The Borg's nanotechnolgy would easily deal with buzzdroids.
The Borg also don't have trouble adapting to projectile weaponry as they adapted to torpedos easily enough (which are projectiles until they impact but are stopped by shields)
Besides...The borg would easily assimilate a buzz droid and know how to counter them pretty much instantly.
LOL classic Trekkie arguments, using fancy terms such as "nanotechnology" without explaining how nanotechnology is supposed to deal with buzz droids.
Even Star Wars starfighters are actually far more powerful than regular Federation starships from Star Trek.
A borg cube trying to attack a Star Wars star destroyer would get attacked by starfighters from a very far distance.
Hahaha....No...If a reactor is said to produce a certain amount of energy without a time factor then that's its total energy output. Not at any instant....Nice try.
200 trillion gigawatts vs 15 billion gigawatts. The former is higher than the latter. Star Wars Star destroyers have FAR more powerful reactors than Star Trek starship.
Drafted and then what?...Packed like sardines in to the empires tiny number of ships?
Bit pointless drafting civillians when you've got nothing to put them to war in.
Besides...We're not dealing with the hypothetical here are we otherwise I could say that the Borg gradually assimilate all the outer rim worlds (along with all their inhabitants) and turn the empires people against them.
LOL.
Star Wars has billions of ships; star destroyers aren't the only kind of ship.
Besides, they don't even have to send them in fleets. They would arm them and watch as a bunch of troopers get repelled by huge mobs of civilians.
So star wars does have temporal shields and/or weapons?
Or ways to hit and destroy a ship that exists outside their own space and time?
This'll be interesting.
We'll discuss this later.
Hey...I'm only going by what is on screen in the highest canon films...If you want to toss that aside then good for you, son.
Faulty logic. Show me where the OT contradicts my source. I'm not "tossing it aside" because there isn't a source from the OT talking about the quality of security, good or bad, of the Death Star. Stop lying.
It's position is given away once it fires its weapons...It'd be relatively easy to hit by then...If empire troops can hit an x-wing with manually guided laser batteries then i'm sure the Borg's tracking systems would be easily capable of hitting it.
"It's position is given away once it fires its weapons" - false. That's what shadow bombs are for. Shadow bombs are activated by the Force and regular sensors cannot track them.
😆
Nice come back...If you can't genuinely see how an entire universe of planet destroying bio weapons would utterly rape a single galaxy of star wars armies then you really are just in denial.
"an entire universe of planet destroying bio weapons" - prove it. Prove that they have more than one.
You're still ignoring the HUGE firepower difference. Hundreds of 2.4 million megaton heavy turbolasers + almost a hundred starfighters vs 1160 megaton proton torpedos with relatively little ammo and range.
Who says it has to be on a ship...I'll mention it again seeing as you still haven't even addressed it...The Iconian Gateway.
I'll counter that with Centerpoint Station.
