in the movies we see that the shields both a fighter and a capital ship have are not visible on empire ships(or for that matter rebel) but we can planly see that the trek shields are there(and to your guy on the site i noteced that you dont show any of the empire shields in your artical) and i just saying that when the best capital ship tactic you can think up is a broadside were as the trekies use modern naval tactics planly show trek supiriority
the fighter qestion is not as importens as you guys think becouse Trek ship phasers can hit that kind of small target anytime and they fire faster then there empire equivalents and the feds have mid-range fighter/bombers i mean come on the empire use LASERS "lasers? that wont even penitrate our navigational shields" and the TREK have an advantige in veterans as the rebel alliance is a terrorest orginisation wich dose not, for the most part, engage in full scale space or land battles and about land battles its true that the feds on the show dont have much in the way of artillery or armour(but note that the klingons have at least light mortars in the show) you guys are always towting the books to disregard movie evidence ok thats fine but all non-contridictid stuff from TREK stuff has to be considderd true to this being the case i have in my posestion a game called "Star Trek: New Worlds"
wich discribes the land aspect of star trek(though it takes place in the old 23rd century rather then the 24th) plus the Trekies show soooo much more tactical sense than that of the empire for example durring the invatio of hoth the empire says that the shield that the rebels have in a PLANITARY shield but you can land ships anyway becous its not a partical shield, a supposed tactical Genuis lands his "invisible" ATATs out of site of the damn rebel base(and dont say "they dident kno were the rebel base was" cous the probe sent the quwadents to the fleet) god what knid of an idiot would do that at least the feds trasport there troops directly in to combat and on the fighter note not only do they have the multipull-crewed fighter/bobmers we see in the battle seens theres also shuttles they got phasers(wich i think they can use to BLAST in to nothingness a ATAT) but ill say this in the defence of star wars if(i repete IF) you had a match between say the old republic and the fed+allies id be a different story though they went from cool six legged all terrain super tank(geinoses) to a tank that not only could be seen from a MILE away by any half desent infantry unit it would be trapped by the fist mud pile it met
and by the way both univeres do not take the full tactical truth in to account your leader says "base it on real armys" ok then
a real armies strength in NOT in the mass tanks(by the way there are no all tank divitions in a modern army) or even air power its in the combined use of infantry, artillery, tanks and planes and today a fully equipt modern infantry squad has the weapons to destroy ANY other unit typ on the modern battle field they just have to be alot closer to do it
the empire uses a battlefield armoured units that stands 100 feet of the ground i take a infantry unit with cuncution grenades and i climb up one of those babys are rip a hole in it even with out a lightsaber wich is THE most usless weapon in the univers yeah it can reflect a blaster bolt or abosrb a phaser blast but i throw a grenade and we have very messy jedi pie or say the jedi chops my grenade in half or somthing the guys waving a collerd weapon in the air(so much for covert ops) and we see in the second film when jedi move there diflecting abillity in greatly reduced wich means that he pretty much standing still wich means all i have to de is say in to my radio "this commander gron to artillery? target location west by north west) and giant big shell blows jedi away along with any troopers standing in a twenty foot radius and in the matter of artillery at least the trekies have indirect artillery the republic and the empire use energy wich dosent bend in the short term and sertenly not on the planitary scale so we see that trek vs new hop ect = trek win
but take it back(or forward depending on your point of view) to trek vs old republic = tie
sorry for any bad spelling of anything
by the way im a fan of both universes but im actualy more of a stargate guy myself
