Which tells us everything we need to know about the suposed superiority of the Starfleet. It gets taken down by a mining vessel.
Difference is we see much weaker rebel ships have the power to straight up down the executor. They didn't need the executor to stop attacking and have to also attack with a plot device.
What we see is the entire Rebel fleet focusing fire on one ship, apparently through the entirety of the Endor space battle. Just after that do they lose their bridge deflector shield. And then it just needed a pilot making it to their point defense weapons on a suicide run, managing to hit the bridge window of the Executor (roughly the size of his starfighter) at a speed of 3 km/s.
So if Star Trek had a fleet with the firepower of the RotJ Rebels (which it doesn't have), there could be a potential problem there. But there is not.
Vader wanted results. Way to ignore the context. He wanted results and didn't want to hear about excuses. We see an asteroid destroy a structure in the star destroyer. Shields didn't look impressive my exaggeratory mentally challenged friend.
Vader is still not suicidal, so he didn't think the asteroids weren't a threat for the Executor which, gosh, they weren't. And we see an asteroid impact that destroys a structure, by delivering the Force of a nuclear weapon on it. But only after constant bombardement with that kind of stuff for hours, given that we also see asteroids roughly the same size harmless exploding against their shields.
Again with the unprovable numbers to support your fanboyism.
How are the numbers unprovable. I know you're incapable of grasping math, given you haven an IQ that is somewhere between toast and a dead starfish, but it can be used to accurately describe what we see on screen. If you want to limit this debate to something you can comprehend, we probably need to argue this with pictures - and even then, I wouldn't be sure, if you'd get anything.
Post the clip again or reference the time stamp in the film.
What for? Scroll up.
Yes, but the difference is the Narada goes down to enemy fire and a black hole. The executor is decimated by smaller ships with firepower and a crash. Vengeance has all 72 torpedoes go off aboard without the shielding protecting the inside and it still doesn't explode apart. The context is entirely different when comparing those situations to the Executor.
The Executor goes down to focused fire of the entire Rebel fleet, after having been the main target of the aforementioned Rebel fleet throughout a rather long space battle. Stop ignoring the facts.
Hundreds if not thousands of much smaller ships not just one. It's like saying 1 guy took you out and then saying it's the same thing when hundreds take one guy out. Context.
You do realize, that I was ignoring context on purpose in order to show you how you form arguments? Nice that you saw how stupid that is. Now act accordingly.
We see the shields easily taken out when attacked by a much smaller and less powerful ship but that isn't the case in Trek.
Except we don't.
False. You lied when the dialogue makes it clear one more shot and they are done for. They were still firing. You continue to lie but this thread isn't the first time nor the last you'll blatantly lie to make Star Wars look better than it is.
I don't even know what you're talking about. Maybe this made sense inside your head. It doesn't in the real world.
What good did it serve ? Did Ren secure the prisoner ? Apparently the security is so lax one untrained in the force woman can easily escape the Stormtroopers and later trounce Kylo Ren.
Red herring. Pathetic.
So you admit it takes time for that Death Star. The other one on screen is highly weak to smaller ships and needs its fair share of Tie fighters to defend it from such an assault. Trek now has thousands of tiny ships.
😂
Trek has now thousands of tiny ships that could sit in space and watch how the next planet explodes, unless they have a Force user on board that would be strong enough in the Force to use it for an outright impossible shot in order to destroy the space station.
Starkiller base takes time and requires stars to power it up. This again takes time which means it can't fire and is susceptible to being attacked just like in the film.
Since Trek would still need years to get anywhere close to it, under the prerequisite that Starkiller Base itself doesn't move, this is a non-issue.
We see the rebels succeed due to the time they had. Han Solo and Finn just winged it and still came out on top. This fantasy that the starkiller or any of these other mega weapons take all of Trek out easily without being attacked needs to die.
Starkiller Base can fire at Trek from another Galaxy and do that for years before one Trek ships manages to travel to them with their lame ass speed. Fact.
We have an exploitable weakness in spades when in the film 30 rebel ships were enough to best the imperials tie fighter defenses of this station with Vader present as well.
It's "exploitable" for a Force user with the natural attunement to the Force that Luke Skywalker has, limiting the possibilities to one person: Luke Skywalker.
I am citing film depictions as my evidence. You're ignoring them and simply restating your silly claims., they are baseless and you're that insecure guy beating his chest but really you're terrified and won't see this debate through because you're a dishonest and biased poster.
If we exchange "you" and "I" here, we have a perfect description of this debate.
We see them take out superior ships and shielding on screen. We see a much weaker ship in the MF handle the star destroyers attacks. The enterprise can't handle the Narada or the Vengeances attacks without taking significant damage.
Your assumption, that anything in Trek is superior (especially shielding) is simply false. Based on onscreen evidence, "nerd math", offcial publications and anything else. Still you repeat it, because "Quanchi says so". Produce an argument for the superiority of weapons and shields in Trek or shut up.
Thanks for confessing yourself guilty of these crimes. Now attempt to atone for your sins.
🙄
You never had any intention of seeing this through and your responses get weaker each and every time. You ignore on screen evidence and continue to restate your baseless claims. Grow up.
Since everybody not Quanchi clearly sees that Star Wars does roflstomp Star Trek, there is no need to continue this. Go get a life, Quanchi.
