Freespace vs. X crossover debate...sigh :D
Since the "Freespace Crossover Pics" has somehow turned into a crossover debate, I just posted this so anyone can discuss here in peace without having to worry about being on topic. A few questions:

1. SSJ Gigas from Inferno vs. Executor from SW - which is more overkill?
2. Can the Shivans whip other Sci-Fic universes' asses? why?

Anybody, feel free to ask any questions to start discussions.
With the rapid increase of FS fan-made campaigns, we're giving the GTVA a harder time with more violence and genocide.

What does this have to do with fan-fiction and art?

Re: Freespace vs. X crossover debate...sigh :D
Marcov, you're asking about the Gigas? Really? That means you haven't heard of the SH Gargant.  :drevil:

As to #2, well, the whole notion of this is completely pointless, seeing as no two universes follow the same 'reality', if you will. So it all comes down to a question of coolness, which is relative.

To answer your question, yes, Shivans kick ass  :cool:

1- Well... I would fear the Gigas firepower more than the Executors, which seems to be built to be resilient more than to be deadly.

2- Yes, they can.

Re: Freespace vs. X crossover debate...sigh :D
why we comparing the juggernauts to executor SSD? what about the Eclipse SSD packing a super laser 1 third the strength of the original death star main weapon

in that case star wars wins because as far as i know know beam weapon in FS is powerful enough to crack a planets crust and capship shields got to be an advantage especially when the shields can survive being rammed by another capship

Re: Freespace vs. X crossover debate...sigh :D
We don't know. We have no idea if SW shields work like FS shields. We don't know if FS ships can jump when an Interdictor's present or if the Interdictor makes it easier. We don't know if a turbolaser volley would melt an Orion or just act like a blob salvo.

About the only thing we can compare accurately are populations, industrial bases, and travel speeds, where we find Star Wars has a huge strategic advantage. (A SW ship could cross FreeSpace space in minutes.)

The Shivans are obviously Sith, red and black fixation and urge to kill stuff, they'd eat the Empire/Republic alive.

Re: Freespace vs. X crossover debate...sigh :D
I'd say that individually for size that freespace ships are more powerfull, problem is the Empire has the sheer weight of numbers.  Also, I postulate that hyperspace is slower than subspace, but, of course, you don't need a node for hyperspace.

Also, yes, Shivans win.  If you survive, it's because they let you.
Warning - while you were typing a new reply has been posted. You may wish to review your post.
Hm, the force, yeah, that may be a factor, though getting enough jedi to make a difference may be tough.

Actually, given the transit time from Delta Serpentis to Earth in 'Good Luck,' hyperspace is faster than subspace.

Yeah, as mentioned elsewhere, Naga Sadow could blow up suns. But I put it to you. . . That through the miracle of wizardpower, that the Shivans would encounter the Lucasverse during the battle of Hoth era where only four force users exist :)

Re: Freespace vs. X crossover debate...sigh :D
problem is it is rare in SW that any real world distances are used in interstellar travel and as another poin in SW you have to make multiple jumps if your course transects a large gravity well and we dont know if that is a factor in FS!!

just for fun though i still say SW wins the debate
