trek versus necrons!(borg)
inspired by the thread in the technical forum on spacebattles
across star trek galaxy the necrons begin to rise and come into conflict with the borg as well as in the alpha quadrant. The necrons are the most powerful and advanced race in 40k but how do they succeed in a setting with technology that matches their own!
sub-versus
instead of a borg cube in wolf 359 and nemesis a Necron tombship attacks!

Oh wait, this isn't 22nd century Starfleet? In that case, Starfleet is amused by the gigawatts of firepower the Necron ships toss out, pats them on the head, and sends them to the corner.

Re: trek versus necrons!(borg)
Citing a statistical outlier, huh? Howabout every star surfing episode where ships handled easily 50-100 TWs for minutes on end, even when under fire from enemy ships, and the E-D in "Relics" with heavily damaged shields and main power off-line able to handle a G-type star for 3 hours for hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of terajoules.
Howabout "A Matter of Time" with phasers rated minimally in the low terawatts, yet shields can easily handle them most of the time. Or howabout "The Nth Degree" where the Cytherian probe starts to expose the E-D to 3.2 TW, but does not even come close to bringing the shields down.

Can to explain your reasoning that ignores multiple examples of quantifiable events from from quantifiable sources while focusing on a single even from a unquantifiable source (the douwd dude).InvaderSkooj wrote:Merely copying mithNowhereman10 wrote:Citing a statistical outlier, huh?

I will type slowly so you have a better chance of comprehending this complex idea.

I never have understood why its OK to lowball everyone except for trek here, while at the same time decrying everywhere else for lowballing trek and whoever else.

If you think that trek is given highball showings on here by everyone you may wanna try reading more threads.
Very few if any accept high end "skin of evil", "obsession" or "The Immunity Syndrome" clacs when they are just as canon as any other material in the series.

Re: trek versus necrons!(borg)
It's not like the high petawatts figures have not been criticized either.
I know some people like to suggest exawatts on some bits of dialogue, but there seems to be an equivalent of amount of terawatts you know, that makes all of this even.
What we see is that phasers are a decent fraction of fully charged torps, and fully charged torps generally take down ships in a few shots. Shields are precharged (hit points in % basically, with perhaps some ability to help recharge them slowly but that's about it).
I've even seen some people here settle on yields inferior to the TM yields used outside of SFJN like if they came from a canon source. You know the 64 MT ones, without counting the omnidirectional blast, the fact that it requires all the antimatter to react properly, and that it manages to avoid the immediate decay and huge neutrino waste.
