Precursor ships, which there is very little information about. Even then it was being toted as an "Iwin" button, just like the death star and other Star Wars super weapons.

Oh, and what the heck does skill have to do with this discussion? Why do MP stats even matter? Just confirms you are a just trying to get a reaction (aka, troll.)

Really your example of the power of the forerunner's ships is that they could destroy a ring. The humans did that and they are the weakest faction. Not ancient humans the humans from 2552.

Also I thought it was decided a while ago that we were leaving out the forerunners and precursors because the Star Wars fans have been leaving out their super weapons and a lot of their factions.




Nope,it's destroyed by an engine so powerful it could create micro black holes and squeesh the ship into it,when they enter slipspace.

Look at the destruction of the Halo ring in Halo ce,that explosion is calculated by some to be rated in teraton-exaton range.

A Forerunner ship destroyed a ring 3 times larger with a single shot.

As i said before even Forerunner ground forces are more powerful then star wars ships as they have continent crust busting weapons.

And to the guy excluding the Halo ancients.

Why do that?And why put a galactic empire against two factions that only control a small portion of the orion arm.

And it seems the star wars defenders in this thread didn't realised cryptum came out.Where else do you think we took our new info on the Forerunners and precursors.

I guess we can just agree on this

Precursors>Forerunners >Star wars>UNSC and covies


This guy has already ended the war.

Precursors>Forerunners >Star wars>UNSC and covies

So stop arguing

My name is starwars fanboy. i am affraid that Halo would win so i deny anything they say.
Mommy mommy, the Halo fans powned me, Buhu,


Mommy mommy the star wars fans powned me with only the empire so I had to use the precursors which I was just making up -blam!- about them so I still lost.

Red Alert is a successful troll, in being unsuccessful.

Roberto jh laid out some basic ground rules, excluding all superweapons from both sides (Forerunner and Precursor were on that list, since they are "Iwin" factions).

It was UNSC/Covenant vs Empire. Then, someone came in, ignored all posts, said, "Precursor > all" and ended the discussion that could have gone ssomewhere.

So can we please go back to UNSC/Covenant vs Empire, no superweapons involved on either side?

We'll bury our burdens in blood...

I had a similar thread to this one. Except this one is a bit more specific. I voted Star Wars, b/c the Star Wars universe will have had more experience in Space Combat than the UNSC or Covenant combined.

The empire has a galaxy. The covenant does not.

SW vs HALO

Halo wins because of Flood, Forerunners and Precursors.
Star Wars fans deem it unfair for Halo to win so they exclude the best of Halo.

That's like booting the guy in the lead in a custom game because he's so good.

Check out the Halo 3 forums.

The Halo 3 forum primarily deals with gameplay and multiplayer aspects. In there, one could make a reasonable assertion that matchmaking statistics indicate a persons credibility on a subject. For example, a person who has 0 BR kills would be less likely to comment on tweaks made to that weapon than somebody who has 5000 BR kills.

In this forum however, people are trying to have intelligent discussions about the canon. What the hell does statistics in MM have to do with anything in here?

Red Alert is a troll. Ignore the fool.

Stop trying to start this whole thing up again. It's Human and Covenant vs. the Empire.

I thought that other guy made that rule and I accepted it? (sorry, I'm terrible with names).

Anyway, this thread exploded. What did I miss? Its been obviously established the Galactic Empire weapons are nerfed by the movies, making them more easily comparable to the UNSC/Covenant but I've noticed on page 15 alone that some are flaming and ignoring this (still).

Let me make it clear: every shot fired in the Wars movies nerf the power of their weapons. Just making sure everyone knows this.

So the way I see it, based off of just a few factions in Wars I can name of the top of my head, its this

Precursors>Celestials=Rakatans=Forerunners>>Empire=U NSC= Covenant=CIS.

This is based off of the highest canon of the Wars universe: the movies.

No, the Star Wars fans deemed it that it was unfair to have a debate over which side had the better super-weapons and IWIN factions. So it was reduced to basic factions of each side.

What happened to that last post of yours 2 pages ago? You lied to yourself, how sad.

Empire has more than enough power to deal with the Forerunner. Forerunner weapons, appear to be little more than homing energy blades, slow to fire and charge, and not terribly effective against a large number of troops.

I also see Forerunner tactics involving Infantry in small numbers, with no vehicle or close air support, they seem to follow the tactic of bombardment + mop up, essentially, WW1 tactics that didn't even work at the time.

"After exhausting every tactical strategy..."
If Forerunner can't take down Flood, that is simply sad.

Forerunner firepower is tricky to gauge, they were able to cut through Flood creatures without much more ease than Covenant or UNSC. Their ships firing on the planet in Halo Legends puts their firepower per shot, per combined ship fleet at roughly, MAYBE a single turbolaser level. But the Empire's ships can fire each of their many, many guns with 1-2 seconds in between shots, rather than 5-10 for their entire ship.

The flood? These kinds of parasitic creatures aren't unheard of to the Empire, they've faced, defeated, and have even created their own. The Empire would have an understanding of how the flood works based on their experiences with similar creatures and the Yuuzhan Vong, and would have little trouble with them as they know that to eliminate them you have to react fast.

Precursors cannot be brought into this fight. NOTHING is known on them aside from the prisoners word. Once book 2 comes out and information is told on them, then you can mention them. Besides, If Empire can beat Forerunner fairly easy, I'm sure they would be able to handle Precursors.
