I think the answer is obvious.

I find that you have to think about who is going to win is silly.


Chuck Norris.

Who would win Chuck norris vs Sly marbo?

The 40k universe beats the Star Wars universe, but the Galactic Empire beats The Imperium of Man.

Both the Imperium and the Empire beat the Federation, although in a universe battle it would come down what the pretty much omnipotent beings from Star Trek would do against the pretty much omnipotent beings from 40k.

Chuck Norris is a skilled martial artist, but is neither a galaxy spanning empire nor a universe filled with advanced aliens, and is at a disadvantage because of this.

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

It's unlikely that putting entire universes against each other like this will ever come close to a resolution. So replace Star Wars with Darth Vader, and instead of Star Trek have both Kirk and Picard. Personally I don't rate Sly Marbo much, but insert your own 40k representative here.

Though the levels of awesome badass in such a comparison would surely cancel out, leaving the competitors locked in an epic stalemate for all time.

This has come up frequntly, and time and time again the ansewer is the same, the 40k universe would kick the living snot out of just about anyone you care to point a stick at. (Ive heard about one anime that has shuriken the size of galaxys thrown around that popped up in one of theese topics, but I decided to call them an exeption) All the things that make OMFGSUPERGIRMDARK and LOLKEWLUBERBADDASSERYFROMHELL also make it hillariously over the top. From god-titans, ships the size of moons, exterminatus, a populaton of several trillion from one faction alone, the 'nids and necrons, orks and not even mentioning Chaos, coupled with either mindless om-nommery butal warmongering, or eternal xenophobia, there will be crusade, after hive fleet, after WAAAGH! untill they are swallowed in grim darkness.

EDIT: and though Chuck Norris could take on any man in the universe, he would be at a disadvantage against an entire UNIVERSE, even if he is invunerable, and infalliabe and invincible, he still has to kill men one at a time, or dozens at a time, this would take hundreds of thousands of years, and the population would be growing constantly.

Wayyyyy off topic, but I was thinking it should be Jack Bauer until I realised that the Emperor is Jack Bauer then it all made sense. He has super powers, he can't be killed, and he can get people to do what he wants, but sometimes those close to him betray him. Quite simple really and that's why the Imperium will never fall, because Jack Bauer is there.

Unfortunately Chuck Norris turned out to be a one kick horse but he had a good run there for awhile, he would've made an excellent inquisitor.

Trek always wins.

Just because of the Tech.

Phasers hit just about always. Which is something that cannot be said about 40k ships.

Apart from that its omnipotent beings against omnipotent beings.

And Borg.....they just adapt. Species 8472 beats even that. Say goodbye chosen fleet of 40k. Star Wars whatever. Its not called treknobabble for nothing.

However, there's always the argument that a couple billion naked screaming guardsmen could win against the star trek universe just because they weighed significantly more (put together)

The tech is far superior in star wars, it took an entire ship's torpedo payload to destroy a 5 km hollow asteroi, and jango fett had fun blasting holes in solid, albeit smaller asteroids with his one man ship. The sheilds on an acclimator (the main troop lander in episode 2) are aprox. 70 billion gigawatts, while the Enterprise-D has about 3000 GW sheilds. Thats what? 23 million[i] times better shielding? All terms are relative, so ship-ship combat in Trek may be quicker simply becaus relitive to the weapons, the defensive power is seen as lacking. So a task force of about 15 federation ships, the pride of the fleet shows up and gets ROTFL PW3NED by a single star destoyer due to the fact that they can't do jack about it. Some how the [i]Enterprise servives thanks to plot armor several miles thick.

40K on the other hand, is, as stated, (LOL OMG LIEK SPESS MARHINES ARE THE R0CKZORZ!!! and TYRANOSAURS ARE BETTER CAUSE THEY ARE BUG DINOSAURS! ) As over the top as physicaly possible and even then, the rule of cool has long supplanted the laws of physics in 40K.

Don't even talk about the Borg, or the Dyson sphere's makers united, or even at all, as Trek is about the federation. If you drag the borg in to this, your messing with the orks, 'nids, necrons and the Imperim all united. Good luck with that.

I will concede the Q point though, as a literally omnipotent being is as dangorus as it is impossible, but what isn't these days?



Yes, total nerd, I know. It's just one of those topics.

Hmmm. Lets se. Necrons meet Borg. Borg go "Oh. That's how you do it, and get converted." I think there was an episode of Voyager where the Borg are actually fighting Nids, so there's a cross-over already. The Federation would be like "We come in peace." Then the Imperium would respond with freaking Exterminatus on the Heretics and non-believers. Finally 40k drops a Grimdark load into Trek space, turning it into a new realm of 40k. Unless Picard realizes he's opening the Eye of Terror by sending Tachyon pulses into the same point in space/time. What a jerk you are Q.
