but seriously why would anyone whant starwars to win ???

Because of all the options given, Star Wars has the best movies, video games, writing, acting and etcetera?

I know you are only referring to the original three movies in their original 'non lucas touched' hands, right? Once you start to include the time period including the last 3rd of Return of the Jedi, because of the Ewoks, to anything Lucas has ever destroyed, your foundation of 'best anything' falls apart.

On topic... Star Trek wins if you include the Q Continuum. 40k wins if you don't include the Q Continuum.

I actually don't mind Ewoks terribly much, since in my mind I imagine them to be Wookies. I understand the difficulties in logistics/cost they encountered trying to find a bunch of giants to fit huge monkey suits, instead of hollowing out a bunch of teddy bears and sticking in them the same midgets that played the Jawas.

Everything else he's been personally involved in since then, however, is an abomination.

Did you know that the Ewoks were originally going to be Wookies?

they couldn't find enough tall people to fill suits and settled for midgets



Other the Star Wars, Lucas's films have been pretty rubbish. all his film buddies too.

So its settled 40 k wins

Ultrasmurf_no_REALY wrote:So its settled 40 k wins

Except no.

No one wins, since we have to set up arbitrary limits on what gets to fight from what universe and what doesn't.


Also, come on, this really is silly.

Just so you know the thread title is "40k vs Star Wars vs Star Trek vs Chuck Norris"

Yeah you signed up for silly when you posted here




and greytemplar i think its all v all (only between thier respective universes that is)

This isnt to say that Star Trek wins.....but whats stopping the Federation Ships (not to mention Klingon, Romulan, Hydran, Gorn....) from just beaming all of the IoM and Star Wars Crews into outer space when the shooting starts.....

"Were within range Captain.......Beam the bridge crew into space......" Done...

Some crap about beaming being blocked by shields.

Essentially, the conclusion of this thread is that Q is awesome and the Federation is a bunch of chumps. Considering the entire Next Generation show was about that, I'm not shocked.

While this probably has absolutely no relevance to the matter at hand, after finding this, Star Trek has a boost.

Yeah but we said no omnipotents :(

Then why is Chuck Norris in the title?

Clearly Chuck is so omnipotent he over rules that rule, but thats not very fair on the others

Chuck Norris FTW

No just No chuck isn't omnipotent he sued the creator of his own awsome jokes

he is only one man and can't actualy do much aswell as bieng old he has a beard that promethium would make short work of.

Guys Chuck Norris is not a god. He's just a regular guy. He lost his powers when he sued the guy who made his jokes.

YES SO 40K WINS (with heavy losses form star wars) and losing the eldar and tau to star treck but no-one likes them anyway !!

This thread should be renamed 40k mortals vs SW vs ST mortals. Otherwise there would be too many 'what ifs' in the equation. Bringing in all the mortal races, making them all allies and pitting them against the others. 40k would win by sheer numbers, with millions of battleships and (insert numbers) trillions of guardsmen and SM. I havent even begun on the Tyranids (all Hive fleets have been vanguards) and Orks. SW would be crushed in a matter of years and ST would be out of the equation. Think about it in a rational way.

No matter what you throw at the 40k universe it would win in the end.

...omega particle?

.....couldn't be weaponised unfortunately.

The existence of the particle in canon is not sufficient.

Lets face it, this is a 40K website, not a Star Wars or Star Trek website. Who do you think most posters will support?

Using all available canon, and GW thought processes, the answer is ...no one. There is only war.

When was the last time GW wrote out a faction?

Sadly, this is true.

Also, his real name is Carlos. The Emperor of Mankind > Carlos.

Yeah. Plus if we had Emperor vs anything in the star trek universe = dead.
Sorry but The Emperor would just with a thought kill anything.

The Chaos Gods alone (along with other and arguably more powerful being in 40k) could easily beat Jedis, and the force. I don't see what guys in Star Trek could do either.

40K.

I just want to see the Star Trek fleet suddenly grind to a halt when Daemons spill out from the warp and OMGWTFBBQ them.

Imean 40k would win no matter what, to me the fiction that comes out of it (BL) is better than ST or SW, they have more complex races and some many ambiguous endings that promote creativity. I don't see ST or Sw being able to top that.

It's more real.

40k promotes creativity within the boundries that have been set by the opening passage to every written publication related to it.



40k isn't as guilty of having outrageous technology as other sci-fi.

40k's laser(and plasma) weapons are actually Hydrogen Plasma pulses projected down a magnetic tunnel(something that, in theory, works)

40k vehicles use fossil fuels(promethiem)

there are Hovercraft in 40k using some sort of anti-grav technology. this isn't completely unplausable, it is possable for scientists to discover what exactly causes gravity and find a counter for it.


Star Wars and Star Trek simply sound off some vauge explainations of how their technology works instead of taking existing technology and theories and building on those.

Seriously, some of you guys, is it too much to ask for you to read the entire thread before coming to the same conclusions as someone else four pages ago?
