Star Wars Vs Halo

MAJOR universe match up here. With much discussion already happening in the Master Chief vs Darth Vader post, it’s very clear that this battle would be nothing short of epic.

With soo many variables such as The Force, The Forerunners and their technology, which of these universes would emerge victorious?

    I believe the star wars universe would win, lasers are faster than plasma, one jedi can take on a spartan or a small team of elites, but might lose to brutes, star wars vehicles would own all fronts. But the rings would be a serious threat although I doubt the halo residents would use it because they want to win and live to tell about it.

    I think it’s fairly even, and I’m not making a choice until I’ve heard other peoples arguments, but this is what I’ve thought of so far.

    The StarWars universe is much bigger (i.e. their army is larger), but the Halo universe’s technology is more powerful.

    Most ground battles will go to the Halo universe, as the bulk of the StarWars troops are stormtroopers, which everyone knows can’t aim, and can even be taken down by teddy bears.

    In a dogfight (small spaceship battle) if Banshees are the best the Halo forces have, then then they’ll lose (as even a Tie fighter can take them down)
    http://www.factpile.com/archives/206

    As for the large ship battle, Halo ships will have an advantage with their AIs, but as StarWars has many more ships, Halo will have to fight very tactically to win (which I think, with their AIs, they can).

    Also,
    “lasers are faster than plasma”
    They don’t actually use lasers in StarWars either, there ‘blaster bolts’ are slow enough to see, and are probably comparable to covenant weapons anyway.
    If it’s just one on one with a Jedi/Sith, the Force user will win, but if it’s a group attacking a Jedi/Sith, all firing at the same time, and can actually aim (i.e. not storm troopers), then the Jedi/Sith is toast, as it would be impossible to lightsaber-defend against more than two shots at the same time, unless all the shots are in a line.
    And that’s just plasma, lightsaber-defending would be useless against grenades (you can’t block the explosion) or bullets (they’d just pass in to the lightsaber, melt and come out the other side as molten metal, and burn the Jedi/Sith’s face.
    Also, those Halo green-charge-shot weapons that can take a shield down with one shot, will take the lightsaber’s shield down, causing the plasma to spill out all over the Jedi/Sith, burning them badly.

    This one goes to Star Wars I’m afraid.

    The Halo universe is limited to a small series of surviving colonies spread across an extent of the galaxy in which there are currently only two sentient space-faring groups, the Covenant and Humans, a parasitic society and a species that went extinct long, long ago.

    If that were not so bad, both Human and Covenant have suffered through a brutal war. The Humans being resigned to a single, mostly demolished planet with practically no military presence; and the Covenant have been splintered by an internal civil war that fractured all remnants of their society and left them with little order and control within their own home colonies, killing potentially billions of sentient Covenant species.

    Whereas Star Wars has millions of habitable Planets and colonies spread over multiple Galaxies, with most of them containing some form of civilization or other.

    Millions of various Sentient species, most of whom communicate with other colonies and form vast trade networks over many lightyears of controlled space.

    A stable unified Galaxy with a senate formed of thousands of varying species and societies, each of which provide their own individual traits to the overall collectivism that is the Galactic Republic/Empire. Plus you have a large Military presence that holds a firm grip over much of the occupied space.

    As I stated, this one guys to Star Wars, heck, even a quarter of the Imperial Star Fleet could outnumber the combined strength of the of the Covenant and UNSC. And that does not include the various other Military factions that occupy the Star Wars Universe.

    Halo would win because,the flood have a big army they would spread over the sw galaxy and infect everybody so sw won’t stand a change against the flood.The forunners have the most advanced technololy of both star wars and halo universe.They would defeat star wars,light the rings and use theur super space ships.Mc his armor is type 2 and the armor of a forunner is type 18 ,that is a super armor.The forunner ships have very strong shields like .the forunner dreadnaughts shield was removed by the covies when the unsc atacked the dreadnaught ,the dreadnaught survived even without a shield it is strong.I think that the forunners ships have a big firepower.And the ground infantry of the unsc and the covenants are stronger than the sw infantry and have stronger ships.But sw has more races and armys ,but with the flood infected armys and the forunners technology halo would win.The only way sw can win are their super weapons,big armys and the force but jedi/ sith can’t use their force power outside the sw galaxy,so if sw atack halo that would be a great advantage for halo because they haven’t the force.

    halo wins

    …Is far too difficult for people to comprehend these days. Are you quite possibly just acting stupid? Because with an act that convincing you should possibly consider a career in Showbusiness.

    It’s the same Universe. Duh.

    star wars would win they have better tech the star wars universe is about twenty thousand years ahead of the halo universe as far as tech goes an example of this is hyperspace technology they have had it for about ten thousand years where as the halo universe is about a few hundred. plus the yuuhanvong concord hundreds of race in a matter of days.

  12. 12 - bobdowling on September 2nd, 2008 12:09 pm

    I’d say that the Halo Universe would win, even though the Star Wars universe is quite advanced they just wouldn’t be able to stop the Forerunners.

    Even if they could stop the Forerunners, and if we ARE taking everything in the prime of it’s life (ie: The Imperial Fleet in the prime of it’s times and the Covenant Empire in the prime of it’s time and the Forerunners still alive) then you still have to consider the Precursors.

    The Precursors would simply pown anything and everything, even the Forerunners view them as Gods and a “theoretical ceiling of technology”.

    And lets not forget the power of a single Forerunner dreadnought, but what about the 1,000 Forerunner dreadnought ships that the Forerunners gave Mendicant Bias to find and kill the Gravemind?

    Even if the battle was staged around the Death Star, the Empire, Rebel, CIS, Clones and even the other various fleets found throughout the Star Wars story just wouldn’t last long, the Death Star would probably take out even a Forerunner dreadnought, but it’s laser probably wouldn’t even scratch the lead Precursor ship (whatever ships they did have).

    Also! I do believe that a Forerunner dreadnought or “keyship” is approx 14km long and an Executor is about 19km long, even with the Executors bigger size (and most likely a vastly larger Firepower capability when facing the enemy dead-on) the Empire didn’t have much of these, and the Forerunners gave Mendicant Bias a total of 1,000 major ships like the Forerunner keyship/dreadnought to destroy the Gravemind and even then they had about 11,000 of these big ships waiting to defend against Mendicant Bias’ attack when he goes rampant and sides with the Gravemind.

    Could you really think how long the Star Wars Universe’s total Fleet size would last against this unstoppable onslaught? And even then you have the huge pre-schism Covenant Fleet and Covenant battleships have Energy projectiles which would probably gut and destroy a regular Imperial Star Destroyer in one-shot, and with a giant fleet (well over a thousand ships) firing these one-shot killer blows against the Star Wars fleet they would seriously take hits very quickly, and some of the Covenant ships could even sport about 7 of these projectors.

    I can see the ships focusing their fire on a single spot on the Death Stars shields and taking it out very quickly, and even if the Covenant ships couldn’t do this then the Forerunners ships most likely could.

    The Humans from the Halo universe wouldn’t be much use here, considering that their strongest ship to ship weapon was the Super MAC cannon, (although if they did use a prowler ship to secretly place a NOVA bomb near the Death Star then you’re seriously looking at a Death Star and probably a good portion of the Star Wars fleet about to say “bye-bye”.

    The Humans may not be a match for the Star Wars universe in terms of technological advancement, but the Covenant would pose a serious threat, and if not the Covenant then the Forerunners alone would seriously keep the entire Star Wars fleet up against a wall and if the Forerunners couldn’t do it then the Precursors would, no doubt, eradicate the Star Wars fleet.

    As for planetary invasions, there wouldn’t be any. They’d probably overrun the few worlds they deemed useful while they glassed every single other planet to smithereens, and due to the fact that the Star Wars universe is so universally “cocky” about there being no-way that an outside force from another Galaxy could destroy them, they so blatantly make it easy for the Halo Universe to find most of the planets and easily destroy them.

    A single NAV database would be the end for the Star Wars universe, and if they didn’t do what the Humans did when fighting the Covenant (basically hiding all the planets they had and desperately try and fight back against impossible odds) then they would be screwed.

    And the outside-force from another Galaxy is just how the Forerunners met their end in the Halo universe. They knew their galaxy very well and didn’t even suspect an attack from the outside, but when the Flood came and took them by surprise they perished. And I have no doubt that if the Flood took the Star Wars galaxy by surprise then it would only be a matter of time before you had 7/8ths of the Galaxy infected and the rest of the Galaxy trying to “hold” the line against the Flood and in the end losing bit by bit before they are totally overwhelmed.

    I say the Halo Universe wins hands down, they have the Flood, Forerunners and the Precursors too and while the Star Wars universe does have “numbers” that only makes it worse if the Flood take them by surprise, much, much worse…

  13. 13 - Mecha bob on September 2nd, 2008 8:04 pm

    The forerunners are dead, so I don’t see they would be much help, but if you’re taking Halo forces from outside the canon-continuity (Halo to Halo3 and SWI to SWVI), then you’d have to also include the same for starwars, i.e. the EU, in which case, StarWars still wins.

    And I don’t see the forerunners being that powerful, if there entire species was wiped out by a threat (flood) that was taken care of by a single human (masterchief).

    And a fleet of only thousands isn’t going to last long, seeing as the Empire alone had a fleet of million (and with all the other races, empires and such, the SW universe has billions of ships).

  14. 14 - L-W on September 2nd, 2008 10:45 pm

    Trillions if you count the Extra-Galactic forces of the Imperium.

  15. 15 - hotshot on September 3rd, 2008 7:09 am

    MUAHAHH thats right star wars won’t stand a chance against the precurors,the forruners and the flood

  16. 16 - hotshot on September 3rd, 2008 7:12 am

    SHUT UP anakin is dead to ,shut up halo wins.

  17. 17 - hotshot on September 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm

    If you say that sw has better techno then halo,think about the forunners and Precursors

  18. 18 - L-W on September 3rd, 2008 11:46 pm

    So? Your argument hinges on the availability of the Forerunner and Precursor species, one of which is utterly extinct (That tends to eat up most of your free time) and the other is a non-tertiary hyper sentient being that no longer exists within the physical realm of four dimensional space.

    What a line up you have there, care to throw out anymore gems Hotshot, or has those three sentences exhumed your intellectual potential?

    Without the Religious objectivity of the Rings, the Imperial Navy would have little trouble sterilizing the Flood from Orbit, who have no technological tier to speak of. They’re dependent on technology that must be procured in battle, with the Navys ability to destroy entire star systems from orbit, I doubt the Flood could gain a sufficient foothold.

    Notice that the Covenant, using Forerunner technology, are limited to merely glassing a Planet, the Empire is capable of wiping out entire Planets. Breaking them down to rock, vapour and sand.

  19. 19 - hotshot on September 4th, 2008 11:00 am

    the only known intellegent species of halo are those five and star wars has may.But sw has many primitive species like ewoks,… And the emprire could blow a planet,yes but a halo ring is better and i talk about those two species because they are the most advance are you jealous that halo has better techno and an unstopable infection species,why do you always ignore their power and always talkabout the covenant and unsc.The forunners and precursors are maybe dead but there are many species to in sw that are dead

    answer this question what will sw do if the flood atack their galaxy?

  20. 20 - hotshot on September 4th, 2008 11:02 am

    And the covenant techno is based on the forruner but most of the forunners culture,weapons,techno are lost so the covenant didn’t take all of their techno.

  21. 21 - hotshot on September 4th, 2008 11:04 am

    The battle stations of the empire can destroy one planet but the halos destroy everything,of the covenant has token all of the forruner thechno then the covies have super weapons like halo but they didn’t

  22. 22 - hotshot on September 4th, 2008 11:08 am

    And the covenant ships are stronger then emprire ships with their energy projectors.Did you forget that the super stardestroyer was destroyed by one single starfighter? So one enrgy projector is enogh to destroy a super stardestroyer but only on his weakest point and thats the bridge.The forunner dreadnaught wasn’t destoyed by the unsc withou a shield the dreadnaught is still powerfull

    Halo infantry are powerful the hunters would kick all droids and clones

  23. 23 - Mecha bob on September 4th, 2008 3:52 pm

    The problem with the Halo rings though, is that they’ll destroy all the Halo forces, so if they use them, then the best they can hope for is a draw.

    And there are more than 5 intelligent species in Halo, there are at least 7 different species in the covenant alone.

    If the flood invade the SW galaxy, what they’ll do is wipe them out. The flood are only really a problem in massive numbers on the ground, and maybe SW will lose a planet or two (but out of billions, it’s not much of a loss), but in space combat, they will just wipe out the flood with their vastly superior numbers, before the flood gain a sufficient foothold.
    And as the flood are incredibly weak minded, force telepathy and telepathic control would probably be no problem on them.

    As for halo infantry, the humans still use bullets, which is not only less high tech than starwars weapons, but it’s not even more advanced than current weapons technology, and the covenant weapons, only being able to do a similar level of damage as bullets, are just as lowtech (when compaired to starwars weaponry.)

  24. 24 - marche on September 4th, 2008 5:30 pm

    keep in mind that it only takes one flood spore to wipe out a species.
    the flood would sneak their way onboard a couple of ships and lose planets like you said.
    but if its at the time of the rebilion.they would grab as many ships as they can and spread out throughout the universe.

  25. 25 - L-W on September 5th, 2008 3:25 am

    So once again the entire argument hinges upon a species that (As I mentioned earlier) is totally Parasitic and holds no sway or alliance with either Universe and would CONSUME all life if given the chance.

    Wow. That argument is as bad as the Forerunner Rings, could you really not think any harder or did you stress yourselves coming up with that one? Which brings me onto…

    The Rings themselves. Although potentially destroying both creations in the process, it is limited to exterminating/sterilizing ONE Galaxy. The Star Wars universe expands over several Galaxies, with more intelligent species than one could ever hopefully count spreading over these multiple systems. With the activation of the Rings, the Halo universe LOSES on behalf of suicide, whereas the Star Wars universe will continue to thrive minues one galaxy.

    In regards to which, there are over 59 intelligent space faring species in the SW universe, all of them equal or above the Human level of technology exhibited by the Human Empire of the Halo universe.

    I look forward to the next rebuttal because…Well, let’s face it, it’s rare to see the opposition post anything of substance.

  26. 26 - hotshot on September 5th, 2008 11:44 am

    I don’t say that they use the rings in the halo universe but in the sw universe and humans have bullets but laser too like the spartan laser.And how will sw stop the flood?With space ships?No that would not help they would land on planets with pods ore use human and covenant ships like high charity.Eh no flood will work together with the entire halo universe and why would they not?Siths and jedi would team up to if they fight against halo nad flood can work together like they did in halo 3

  27. 27 - hotshot on September 5th, 2008 11:46 am

    I don’t talk only about their rings,thy also have super armor ,stronger than every armor in sw.Humans of the unsc are srronger than clones,they have willpower and fight better
    And the brutes and elites are large and strong and would kill many clones,wookies,mandies,..

  28. 28 - Neutral Dude on September 6th, 2008 5:02 pm

    Well if the sw weapons are like the covenant plasma weapons then without a doubt i think the flood (if they are in this war) would win cus if you were to use a cov. weapon vs a flood it would usually have no effect on the flood so if the sw weapons are like the covs. then yeah im all for halo winning if not then sw would probably win…

    And just out of curiosity how do like covenant reproduce?

  29. 29 - L-W on September 6th, 2008 9:28 pm

    Well, the Covenant are not one species, therefore there are a variety of different methods of reproduction over the Covenant hierarchy.

    Grunts and Brutes, for example, would reproduce in a manner quite similar to Mammals, with each pack, group or clan caring for the multiple litters. Brutes I should imagine would have only one to two infants per pregnancy, but would still be reliant upon small tribes and families.

    Whilst Hunters on the other hand are actually large clusters of tubular Worms connected through symbiosis, reproduction for them would most likely include any number of methods, such as hives, spores, nests or good old fashioned Mitosis.

    No doubt at all though the Prophets have manipulated the Covenant echelons to prevent most of their lower caste members (Grunts, Jackals etc.) from reproducing naturally, instead opting to use breeding farms for mass war production.

  37. 37 - That guy on September 21st, 2008 2:55 pm

    lets look at the sides
    human ships are built on an enourmous scale. Ive played that modded sandtrap and that ship is like…1/500th of a UNSC marathon class. I also believe that in a ship battle (which this will indefinantly be) The UNSC have Mac guns that will gut most star wars ships. IF they are both at the height of their power then Im sure the unsc would win. Here is a total breakdown. Spartan > jedi Lightsabres are used to deflect the slow moving lazers of a stormtrooper. In short the very notion that you can deflect a bullet is rediculous. Even in the star wars movies the jedi guys got killed by a few clones (later stormtroopers) Halo ships > Star wars ships The Piller of autumn with its tripple firing mac gun would overload the shields of most of the empires ships and finish them off with at least the last round. I laugh every time I think that a few punks with lazers BLEW UP the greatest empieralistic ship by shooting down an exhaust hatch Halo soldiers > star wars soldiers Last time I checked The marines I played along side werent as stupid as the AI in star wars battlefront two. However: the empire has a lot of people to waste.

  38. 38 - Just A Gamer on September 22nd, 2008 1:10 am

    Alright first of all I would like to admit that the Halo universe has a very slim chance of winning. Both the humans and Covenant have been ravaged by war and reduced to shadows of there former power. However, the halo universe has at least one type of nearly undetectable ship used by the ONI. Now the Covenant posses technologically superior war ships. Yes I realize that’s a stretch for some Star Wars fans, but in the novel First Strike Master Chief commandeers a covenant destroyer and Cortana reprograms the ship to shoot the plasma in a beam rather than a pulse. Using this concentrated version of the weapon and skilled piloting she was able to destroy 3 other undamaged Covenant vessels. So if the Covenant used their force to create a diversion while this heavily cloaked ship made a run close to the planet and dropped off a few dozen Flood infection forms in a populated area, the Flood would quickly and easily kill off all the life on that planet, at which point the Covenant could glass the planet. Using this strategy the Halo universe could gain a lot of ground before the Empire could develop an effective counter measure.

    Another point I wanted to make is in Halo they guard there information very well and have lots of protocol to protect the location of their base planets and Earth. This may help to slow the Star Wars universes progression into the halo systems because they would have no idea where to look. Now The other possible effect here is, the Star Wars universe does not have such protocol. If so then after the humans or Covenant capture a ship or two they can use their navigation charts and not only know where all of their planets and bases are, but possibly where to strike for crippling attacks. For instance the facility where they grow there clone armies, or weapons depots and manufacturers, and ship building facilities. They could strategically strike these places. They could glass them with the covenant plasma, level them with incredibly powerful nukes, or simply overrun them with Flood then burn the remains to the ground. With their supplies cut off they would fall, just like in the battle front games. Attack there supplies and there infrastructure fails. Eventually they can no longer put up an effective fight. Some of these places they could even take over with enough ground troops. Brutes have a severely overpopulated planet, the Halo universe send hundreds of them in to take the facility by force then start using it to build their own ships or weapons. Using the humans AI’s and the Covenants Engineers they could quickly learn how to use their plants and technologies.

    Well I hope you guys actually read this and take it into consideration before your next post. I believe this is proof that if they play it smart enough the Halo Universe can win.

    All right guys this is pretty sad, Star Wars would win hands down.
    The Halo universe is outnumbered 100 to 1 easy. On top of that a Jedi or a Sith could take out multiple Spartans or Elites, and even easier the brutes. Especially if Starkiller (Darth Vaders Secret Apprentice) is in the mix here, the most powerful force user to ever exist. On top of that his Lightsaber skills are legendary, oh and one more thing for whoever said bullets would go through a Lightsaber you are stupid it would be disintigrated.

  47. 47 - Onesidedfight on September 24th, 2008 10:38 pm

    ok, any one who says halo forces are crippled is wrong. If star wars forces are nor, then nethier should halos. The ground fighters in halo have better aim, but mabye, mabye less powerful wepons. Jedi woudnt beat a spartien, but a sithwould ( because of deadly use of force). The flood could be able to help, but that would require luck so I will not count them. Humans where able to hold the covnet off 100+ years. So here’s how I see it. Humans are but in charge of defence and upgrading wepondery (which one smart AI could do in much less then a day) while the covnet attack. After fully upgrading wepondrey and defence, humans would start mass prouding spartins which would be sent to destory key places, like the death star, production plants, etc. Let’s not also forget that in a last ditch effort, they could use the rings and draw

    This is assuming that the Star Wars universe will do nothing and simply sit on its thumbs whilst potentially the entire collective Universe could potentially be on the Universe…

    …Right…

    Halo is outnumbered by an ever greater margin here than a mere 100 to 1. Even the most basic Space faring species of the SW universe (Such as the Mon Kalamari) are more than an equal match for the Human Empire of Halo when it was at its peak before the Covenant extermination. With several hundred recorded sentient species in the SW universe, with each one holding a substantial military, economical or ideological empire; things begin to look grim for Halo.

    We’re looking at a margin of a 1000 to 1. The Imperial Fleet alone has the resources and capacity to fight the Covenant a dozen times over. Without their
