Predators, Aliens, and Engineers vs. Star Wars

Started by Omega Vision5 pages

I haven't seen Prometheus so I'm not sure how powerful the engineers are, but there's no indication that the Yautja are a Galactic power, which is what it would take to fight the Republic, the Empire, or even lesser powers like the Pre-Confederacy Trade Federation or the Imperial Remnant.

As for the xenomorphs, they're also not a galactic menace. They take over ships, stations, and maybe planets if they're poorly defended, but even if the preds transport them on their ships and they don't fight each other they'll only be able to take out a few planets before the SW fleets get wise to them and hunt the pred ships down.

The SW universe has very little knowledge about what happens on the Outer Rim worlds so the Xenos could wreck several without the Republic being the wiser. As i said earlier SW would never be able to win a ground war against harvested Xenos. Their space power is their advantage here and it's all they would really need imo.

Every combined Star Wars character from the films.

Sweet.

My original argument then.

Death Star takes care of any Xenos on infested planets.
Jedi and overwhelming numbers take care of the Predators.
The Engineers shouldn't prove to be much of a problem.

Star Wars ftw.

Pretty much this.

Predators and co. are horribly outmatched. SW wins.

SW wins just much more and better resources to draw from.

you're severely under rating the Xenomorphs.

Can't really see how they can beat everything Star Wars has to offer

Do they have to eliminate everyone in the universe?

Never said they'd win just underestimated. Done right the Xenos really are a huge weapon and are being underestimated as are the Predators.

Yeah i've been preaching this from the jump. The Xenos would wreck anyone in SW in a ground war

The thing is there isn't one planet of focus on making a ground war though.

If the Predators are dumping facehuggers on as many planets as they can reach before the full force of the Empire can respond then we have an interesting fight.

If that is what you are arguing.

Alot of flying aliens in Star Wars....as well as ground burrowing ones.

In the end though we can't compare Predator space travel with the basic tech the Empire has.

One planet of Predators trying to spread the Alien virus as far as they can only exists in our imaginations.
Do they have warp travel?
How far does the threat your OP reach???

We need facts in OPs. Otherwise threads like this become guessing games.

The Empire wins though. Unless you have an ace up your sleeve that turns the tide of the battle.

I think keeping it open is what makes it fun to hear the different opinions.

Preds team would win if this was one planet with each character on it IMO.

It may be fun if it was one planet. But this is Star Wars!!!!

And even if the battle was raging on one planet all the Empire needs is one Death Star to make this over in a single blast.

The Death Star wouldn't be allowed for use since that would be a giant battle which would make it vastly unfair for the Preds side.

Boba Fett goes beastmode on some xenos, preds, and engineers.

I know but we see in the PT that a lot of the war takes place on planets. The Xenos would wreck any and all ground forces SW sent their way imo. It's the space fleets that give SW the win here

Thats why I don't see them beating Star Wars either as there are too many worlds shown and too few Predators and Engineers shown.

I doubt ground forces would be overrun by Xenomorps, especially if it's the Empire dealing with the. They won't hesitate to use whatever weaponry needed to end the conflict as soon as possible.

The Empire had trouble with rag tag Rebels. Xenos would rape
