Re: OT - How would sc-fi ships do in battle against each other?
Quote:
Where on earth did you get this idea? SW ships are much, much faster than trek ships. Voyager found itself on the other side of the galaxy and it was a 75 year trip home. Han Solo went from Tatooine to alderan in @three weeks. The republic (and then the empire) spaned an entire galaxy and ships routinely travelled its span without the need for generation ships. Propulsion tech in Star Wars is therefore vastly superior to that of trek. Don't get confused by the non-technical references to "lightspeed" and "lasers". These are just colloquialisms of a 70's space opera. Judge the tech by what it does, not by what it it's called.

i think he means the slower than light drive. in which case, the ST ships are faster.
