Star Destroyers and Federation Ships have nothing on the effectors, nanomissiles, and other assorted nastiness a Culture ROU or even a GSV could dish out.

The Killing Time would single handedly slaughter every ship in the Federations Armada, alike with the Empire or Rebellion.
I'd love to see Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker try to take on Skaffen-Amtiskaw.

this is a very simple question, and I can put it to a solid and simple end. After taking all concievable variables into consideration, including the many uses of a deflector dish, the answer is as follows:

Sam Fisher, because he would kill the "last man" standing before he even knows he's there. Even if that man is Chuck Norris. ______________________________

Can we please stop saying that Star Trek ships are faster than EVE ships?
First off, warp speed. Your basic EVE frigate warps from place to place at 6.0 AU/sec (minus the time it takes to get up to full speed.) One AU = 499 light-seconds, so this works out to 2994 times the speed of light (or one light-year every 2.92 hours. Why do we need gates again?). The warp speed equation for Next Generation Trek ships is s(w) = w^(10/3)c; warp 9 (the fastest a Trek ship can safely warp, iirc) works out to 1516 times light speed, or about half the speed of an EVE frigate. (Speeds past warp 9 supposedly increase asymptotically, with warp 10 being infinite speed, but no one really pays attention to that.) So: EVE ships = faster.
Now, w/r/t sublight speeds: yes, impulse engines propel Trek ships at significant fractions of light speed, whereas EVE microwarpdrives... don't. Trek ships, however, operate in 'normal' space without frictional inertia, etc, whereas EVE takes place in fluidic space or something similar. There is a way to compare them, though. Your basic EVE frigate with microwarpdrive accelerates at about 1 km per second per second (rough guess) until it comes near to max speed. Light speed is 300,000 km/sec, and Star Trek impulse engines are capable of accelerating to 1/3 light speed (say, 100000 km/sec) almost instantly... yeah, in terms of sublight speeds, EVE ships are screwed.
Okay, so you can keep saying that Star Trek ships are faster than EVE ships.

Some federation ships have Ablative armor which is pretty much what every ship in EvE has too.
Remember a DS9 episode when the U.S.S. Defiant was fighting it's way to earth to stop a false flag operation in the Federation. They kicked serious ass, and a Fed captain was on the monitor telling Starfleet "Nobody told us that thing had Ablative Armor".
I think what is truly panzyied up is Star Wars. Only the Rebel ships have anything comparable to Eve (Shields, warp, etc) but the Empire relies on sheer numbers.
We can suspect Star Trek can beat the Empire...

This depends on if the startrek ship wishes to be in actual battle mode or simply sit in place and take it mode.
I would say if you put a raven against a startrek vessel(lets say galaxy class) and both weren't moving the fight would be close, especially if the raven is shield boosting(startrek ships are more burst damage then damage over time).
However if the ships were moving the startrek ship would move faster then the raven's torps/cruise and it would be a one sided fight, though assuming it's an eve pilot he wouldn't be above leaving and laughing at the fed ship in local.

It really would depend on the world physics the match would play. It is pretty likely the Enterprise would randomly explode in the EVE universe because the physical principles the warp core containment field is based on do not exist in the EVE universe. Would probably the other way around, too.
If the match would play in a physics 'neutral' environment, where everything functions, Startrek would win, because they have more abundant techno babble available to make anything happen, no matter how convoluted or far fetched. --------

One thing I was thinking about is, how would EvE ships stand up to the Borg?
Borg ships can tractor other ships, wrecks or not, and start cutting them up - through armor even. If the battle at Wolf359 indicates anything it's that the Borg are very good at targeting systems, the tractor is combined with a scram, or they have a dictor bubble (so few Fed ships got away). Borg ships are also a kind of strange morphing omni-tank that adapts to weapon damage.
Almost the whole cube is nanites too. Once a Borg Cube adapts to the damage type, its structure recovers and the shields harden for the damage type with like 95 percent resist (apparently).
I think the only way to destroy a cube is to alpha it before it adapts. But once it's tank adapts you better get out of there - an ECM ship on standby to cover the ambush retreat perhaps?

Actually if enough ships group together then I could see the borg cube taking massive damage, especially if there were phoenixes in the battle(standard missiles are suppose to be proportional to a tactical nuke).
However I believe the other races may have some trouble, especially those who are stuck with only two damage types and/or are more dps oriented then alpha strike.

Edited by: Druadan on 08/12/2009 17:09:37 Constitution Class Enterprise is about 300m long, which is slightly smaller than an EVE Battlecruiser.
Galaxy Class Enterprise (i.e. the one that matters) is about 650m long, which is somewhere between one-third and three-quarters the size of an EVE Battleship, depending on the battleship.
On the face of it, an EVE battleship would wipe the floor with any of the Enterprises, assuming we reach a common ground to reconcile problems of how damage works in each universe.
But I think the tactical options available to the Enterprise (e.g. the Picard-maneuvre of insta-warping on the battlefield so it looks like there are two Enterprises and the enemy shoots at the wrong one; numerous evasive manoeuvring options and a speed advantage, regardless of the fact that ships in Star Trek engage at smaller ranges than in EVE; and the ability to target subsystems) would have the Enterprise win through. Sig removed, inappropriate content. If you would like further details please mail [email protected] ~Saint |

Picard maneuver would be rather useless, in eve the armor on battleships is still rather thick... Also the fire at the wrong one thing will only work once which means it will only buy enterprise about 7 seconds before the next volley hits, assuming we are talking about a torp raven ofcourse.
I think the major difference would be eve ships were built for combat, not science whereas the opposite is true of most startrek ships.
EDIT:Also flying within the shields of eve ships would be impossible nonetheless as it lines the hull rather then extending out around the ship like a bubble.

Your all barking up the wrong tree.
An eve ship with a plot device and lovable characters are vastly superior to any sci-fi universe that has been seen in theaters. |
