Would you be interested in a Cross Genre Match?

STAR WARS vs. ANYTHING - Please Read! Participate!

Hello ladies and gents.

Recently, the Comic Book Vs. section has introduced the idea of pitching Versus battles, once-a-week, in which Comic Book characters do battle with characters that do not necessarily fall under the Comic Book umbrella. So far, their Cross Genre matches have done fairly well for itself and renewed some interest in that forum (though their traffic is much more than our own to start with). They are moving into Week 9 of the debates, with a new match every week.

In order to get things underway, I want to use this thread to gage the amount of interest such a thing would get within the SWVs. As such, poll.

Additionally, feel free to recommend rules or methods for handling this to help things run smoothly, or even matches that you would like to see. I would keep it to a 1-on-1 match to start things off, perhaps allowing for teams if things go well.

Discuss!

Palpatine's Empire vs the IOM.

During the Great Crusade era, righter after Horus found Alparius Omegon. However, this time Chaos will not corrupt and turn Horus leading to the heresy. Also, Chaos is inactive and the other threats are gone for both sides.

However, I am willing to concede that Angron and Konrad's falling might be inevitable.

The situation would be a Andromeda and Milkyway situation. Two Galaxies on top of each other. Starting distance between the two Galaxies would be about 10x the size of the Milky way.

Oh and as a hint, I wouldn't put Palpatine against the GEOM or even some of the more formiddable Primarchs in personal combat.

As for suggestions, How about you take some options, 5-10 or so at a time, poll them, then do the match-up of the top 3 one right after the other.

Boba Fett vs The Punisher

Ben Skywalker vs Zeratul(Starcraft)

Seba Sebatyne vs The Lizard(Spidermans enemy, not sure if that is his name)

Boba Fett Vs Batman, now that would be an awesome match up indeed.

No factions. 1 v 1 will mean one character v one other character, and I want this is explicitly stated in the rules. If multiple interpretations or incarnations of the non-SW character exist - The Dark Knight Batman, The Animated Series Batman, Batman from current continuity, etc. - one needs to be selected and agreed upon before the thread is created.

Matches featuring anything involving a crew of individuals operating a larger unit, a starship or whatnot, may be pitched here to be approved, modified, or crushed by a member majorityme prior to creation. No such thread in the Star Wars v Star Trek niche will be approved, ever.

These are my conditions.

Do not disappoint me, REXXXX.

So are we allowed to start making threads by these rules?

He was using an example of the Comic books vs forum, not this forum.

Yes thats true. It also seems that he would like to follow that example. That is probably why the example was given in the first place.

this is an experiment guys. its not "lolfree reign go wild kids!" think of it as testing the waters.

the fact that no one in this thread besides you me and maybe blax knows what youre talking about is why that thread wouldnt be a good idea 😛

plus, too much of warhammer 40k is heresay. at least in my experience, in the majority of discussions ive been in people toss around statements like "space marines can swallow grenades and imperium ships destroy planets with a single torpedo, bolter rifles shoot missiles not bullets! etc. but their proof is generally something like a link to the warhammer wikia or leixicanum, neither of which are actual canons sources.

I had no idea what he was talking about. Although a fight of that scale probably shouldn't happen. Way too complex.

IoM vs the GE would be ridiculous and inconclusive. I mean 40K is one screwed up setting.

I agree with Faunus with the 1 vs 1 idea.

The GA vs Middle Earth 😆 😆

Still would like to See Yoda vs. Superman or Grievous Vs. Spiderman.

Corran Horn vs Iron Man!
