The Reapers can shear anything in to pieces in half a second at any range, how can anything beat that?
Against shields that can barely take triple kilotons, yes. Against shields that can tank a solar flare, no.
Could you please explain the theory besides the shields you refer to from Stargate?
Like are they kinetic barriers etc?
Nope, the SG shields are energy-based. AKA like Halo. Therefore SG already has an advantage against Mass Effect.
Also, phase-shifting tech. Weapons that ignore shields altogether. Black hole bombs [isa device]. Instant transmission [wormhole drive, though this takes an assload of power, almost three entire fully charged Zero Point Modules-the power level of a GALAXY inside a crystal about the size of a two-litre Pepsi bottle].
Ok, so I thought Mass Effect was ridiculous.
You win buddy.
That "ridiculous" tech is the technological achievements of the Ancients/Asgard/Nox-
the Ancients are Stargate's version of the Forerunners, but have now ascended to a higher plane of existence. [Like the Precursors? OMG the Precursors are Ancients lol.]
The Asgard stuck around and inadvertently landed on a planet with mechanical insect-like inhabitants. These "bugs" quickly overran the Asgard scout ship and killed the crew, then adapted the technology to its own-starting a centuries-long war. The Isa device was a rogue Asgard's creation. Using it on any star system overrun by Replicators, its function was to speed up time inside a 10km section of space[usually inside a star, making the fusion[?] process occur within a few seconds rater then millennia] Within 10 seconds, the sun goes supernova. Then about two minutes later, collapses upon itself, creating a black hole. And, using the Asgard core ["matter assembler"], which can create almost everything from base molecules [for some reason, functional ZPMs can't be created this way], ANY Asgard ship can have access to this superweapon in a few [read: five] minutes. Even with all this tech, they eventually reached a point where continous cloning of their bodies no longer worked, due to a biological virus the Replicators introduced in the middle of the war, causing the effect of diminishing returns to occur much sooner then it would. Their entire race [at least, the ones in the Ida galaxy] died at the end of SG-1 S10... but not before giving the Tau'ri [that's us] ALL of their technology. ALL of it. The Asgard Beam Weapons, the Asgard transporter technology, the Asgard computer core [the entire history of the Asgard], the "matter assembler" with blueprints to ALL Asgard technology...
The Nox are space hippies. They WILL NOT FIGHT, but when you can put an entire planet out of phase, and cloak an entire solar system [including the sun]... you don't need to fight.
Ancient Alliance = or > Forerunners
Ascended Ancients = or < Precursors
