/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Firepower in Trek is absolutely comically more powerful than in Star Wars. Like to an absurd degree. From that perspective, it wouldn't even be a fight.
Factor in transporters being able to do stuff like beam a photon torpedo onboard and it gets more comical.
That said, Star Wars ships (at least in hyperspace) are vastly faster than Star Trek ships, so I'd imagine that would be amazing in terms of warfare logistics.
Starfleet technically understands the Borg's transwarp gateways by the time of the Enterprise E, thanks to Janeway, so even if it isn't just a fundamental difference in the way physics works in the two universes, Trek has a route to match and exceed those speeds (instant travel transwarp being demonstrably possible in the trek universe).
All that said, I would relish a montage of some ~~High Elves~~ Vulcans figuring out how the Force works and mastering it in a matter of days, if not hours, because they realize their people figured it out and then abandoned that tech centuries ago.
