All right, its late and I'm annoyed now. This is not MGS vs Halo, and Solid Snake could never take out even a Grunt! Either side with Halo of Star Trek or not annoy me! I'll fire the Halo Array if you don't! Everone but you will be on the Ark. MC and rest of Halo> You. Edit: Blast it! How the hell did I put the greater sign toward you? This has been a UNSC transmission. Cortana: Charge is at 90 percent, firing sequence engaged! Wait, why am I worried? Everone bes

[quote]To all you halo fanboys, Sova especially. Face facts. SOLID SNAKE KICKS MASTER CHIEF'S ASS. That must be why you had to move on from MGS vs. HALO topics to something as nonsensical as Star Trek vs. Halo! METAL GEAR REX WOULD EAT EVER SPACE SHIP IN THE HALO UNIVERSE AND SHIT IT OUT. because it's a NUCLEAR EQUIPPED WALKING BATTLE TANK. METAL GEEEEAR. <
[quote]Impulse, yeah, it's a form of fusion. They also have batteries for emergency power. Even a detonation is only in the same power range as an individual photon torpedo. For real power, they use the warp core. The actual drive is not fusion btw, it's this. The warp drive is a reactionless drive.[/quote] Will, it was just something I thought might work, thanks for correcting me. And I would like to say sorry again about the yield of the torpedos. My mind kept looking&n
[quote]Now as for Warp speed what I know is that the ship warps Sub-Space around the normal space of the ship and moves that ship and the space along with it, so the reason they can fire at those speeds is because they are in bubbles of normal space. If I'm wrong tell me.[/quote] And tell me if I'm wrong, but as I said "bubbles of normal space" which allows this firing at Warp. [ = ] [ = ] Now lets look at the equals s
Good evening everone! How's it going? Now lets take a look at Plasma Torpedos firepower, and this time I have more the Halo:Reach trailer, which they have a shot of at Halopedia. Also, the larger the ship the more powerful the shields, so there's not telling what a Supercarrier would be like, they have hundreds if not a couple thousand . Quote. A hundred thousand probes darted and scanned with winking electronic eyes across the void of tangled nonspaces enveloping the
[quote]Sova, you're not keeping track of information very well. Phasers can be fired at warp. Warp is faster than light speed. We've seen them firing weapons forward while at warp, this is impossible if they can't move faster than the speed of light, they would exit the warp field and then instantly burn into the ship in reverse. Solution, rapid nadions travel faster than photons do. Phasers are faster than light weaponry. Modern physics is irrelevant, it's fiction.<br
[quote] The Torpedo would be outrun if its max is .5c. I don't know anything about the properties about the Energy Projector, but I assume it isn't any more powerful than a phaser. About the Pulse Laser Turret, it was proven in an early episode of TNG that Star Trek navigational shields, not to mention the regular shields, are impervious to lasers*, but the hull would react normally. A Phaser can be fired at impulse speeds at a range of 300,000 km at the speed of .983c, with a 16MW
[quote]there are a couple of common FTL types: Slipspace - not just Halo, but other sci Fis use this, such as Andromeda Hyperspace - uses a semi-alternate dimension Unnamed FTL - just FTL, instant jumping, such as in BSG Warp - not that common, only place used that I know of: Star Trek Singulatarity drive - somewhat like Hyperspace, but uses generally stationary singularity points to enter/exit the alternate dimension also, a t
Edit: Almost forgot, sorry for the galaxy worth of text, and tell me if I fogot anything or made a mistake. And tell me what you think of the story I have so far my book. Still working on the title. [quote]whoever wrote the comment that grandadmiralsova quote shouldn't bother to argue with him any longer. He is hell bent on finding every flaw there is just to push his arguements foward.[/quote] I am just doing my best here with limited time to do stuff. There's just
[quote]We're not forgetting anything. I think you have failed to read everything we have offered about the power of Star Trek weapons. Again, on-screen in DS9 on the lead-up to the war (pretty sure the episode was The Die is Cast, a link was posted), 20 Romulan ships were able to annihilate 30% of a planet's surface in just one volley. That is, utterly and completely lay waste to a third of a planet in a few seconds. [/quote] That would be the joint Romulan-Cardassianfleet that
[quote]do you mean the Shaw-Fujikawa Translight engine, or the Fusion core drives?[/quote] Fusion drive cores, I'm thinking for the humans to have fusion engines but have some sort of reactor that gives out the energy to do what UNSC ships can, or better. [quote]A standard Photon Torpedo is 63.4 megatons. The people saying it is like 3 bajillion lotsoftons are on crack.[/quote] All that agree with this say I, all oposed say nah. I. [quote]Now that was ju
[quote]Covenant starships also have the Tissue paper problem. In a few Halo books, a single Mac was capable of ripping through the covenant ships. I know i know, "wH4t abot teh shieeldz" Well, Covenant shields have been known to have gaps in them, and with the Federation scanners that will undoubatly be their achilles heel. Nevermind the fact that all Federation ships seem to target the Center of mass. While this may not destroy their bridge, weapons, engines, etc will probably be offline at

[quote]Will when a rouge AI takes most of your fleet and hands it over to the Flood your noy going to have time to get to the shield worlds. Most of the Forerunner died, but some did survive, if they hadn't everyone would have been on the Ark and not their homeworlds. They just left the galaxy, maybe even the universe after firing the Array. And were, exactly, is the proof of that?[/quote] My "proof" is at Halopedia. The AI Mendicant Bias was built by the Forerunner slow do
[quote]As I mentioned, photon torpedoes have a yield of at least 1.2 x 10^29 J. That's some 8 orders of magnitude higher, and each ship in ST has multiple torpedo tubes. And each fires at a rate faster than one per five seconds. [/quote] Look at the damge that the Nova bomb did, then think what one torpedo from ST would do anywhere near a planet. If it really is that powerful then there would have be some sort of ban on the weapons. A star blazed forth between Ear
[quote]Well the Ark+shield worlds don't seem to work as intended, do they? No Forerunner survived, despite having them... Now maybe, they didn't have time to evacuate to the shield worlds, whatever, but why would they leave them completely unoccupied? Surely someone would have had to be there to oversee things, etc. And someone also had to be on teh Ark to actually fire the rings, yet there is no one on the Ark, or evidence of any Forerunner surviving.[/quote] Wi
I just did this last night on my PC and want to get it posted. I'll reply to everything later. Oh, and Covenant shields can block Lasers, I don't have time to quote right now, but they have to drop a small section of the shields to fire the. I'll be back later to night. Why do you keep thinking Halo ships are slow? And look at what that Long Sword in Halo: C
[quote]Without warp speed, I doubt the Covenant could even get into range. For those of you with a thinking problem, range is not how far a weapon can travel. The range of a projectile weapon would be infinite. Range is how close you need to be before you can hit your target. Range changes based on the mobility of the target. The range of a MAC against a Federation starship wouldn't even make it into the kilometer range. The range of a plasma torpedo would probably be under ten thousand. The
[quote]Wow seriously I shouldn't have posted in here in the first place, you pick nip ever flaw there is and then go fanatic on it, like winning this debate could mean life and death to you. Maybe for the sake of maintaining my sanity, you win.[/quote] No! Keep posting, just give me the era as I said in the edit on my post and I'll look it up. Oh, I forget DS9. And I don't feel like a fanantic or think I am, I just like to have all the pieces of the puzzle, and I don't take it
Sorry for not being here, but for some reason one of the legs on my desk chair collasped right out from under me and sent me to the floor. [quote]I've stayed out of this debate so far, but why does everyone have to bring up the halos like they are the end-all-be-all ultimate weapon or something? This kept happening in the Star Wars vs. Halo thread, too. Yes, they kill all sentient life, but so what? That applies to Covenant as well. You light one up, and everyone
Its late and I'm tired, but if I'm right then the NOVA bomb is using somthing besides Shivas. 6000 Megatons x 9 x 100=540 Teratons. Yikes! Just one of the warheads without the rest could destroy any Covenant or ST ship besides the big mobile stations like High Charity. And as I said its late and I'm really tired so if I got this wrong tell me. Good night. This has been a UNSC transmission.
[quote]That is one of the reasons to question everything Halopedia has. The UNSC HAVOK tactical nuclear mines are 30 megatons (The Fall of Reach, pg 200. Who ever did that NOVA calc pulled the number of their ass. I can't recal it ever being said what type of warhead was in the NOVA, most likely SHIVAs. To find the power of the NOVA bomb, we would need to calc its blast - and I don't think anything less than mid teratons could produce that result. Plus we need
[quote]Too many halo fanboys for a serious debate[/quote] Wrong! To many Trek fanboys who will not give me the data I need to compare with the Covenant. If the "primitive" UNSC can build a bomb powerful enough to " shatter a planet in two" then they are more advance then you think. If you want a "serious debate" then start arguing about what ST has in this time line that would help it. If any one has an idea for a better ST time line bring it up. But if you want to debate star
[quote]Ok, i just created an account to comment on this because there is something all of you have been missing. Plasma weapons are considered relatively weak and out dated by Kirks and Picards times. Just watch the Enterprise series. Earths FIRST starship used to be outfited with plasma cannons, then replaced with phasers. Same with the hand weapons. So obviously there was a reason for this. And to Sova- you keep thinking photon and quantum torpedoes can be shot down...
[quote]Just want to clear something up, a isoton is actually closer to Gigatons, not Megatons. P.S. I don't consider the Nova to be a feasible technology. Come on, 9 8 Megaton bombs (tops) creating a explosion with the same density as a neutron star. Total bull.[/quote] This is the sort of thing I hate with a passion. You say its closer to gigatons, but give no source beyond what you put up. Give a source to back you up, ok? And so what the NOVA is not feasible tech
