I don't even see why you would even bring the scarab up.
IF the UNSC doesn't even have a large platform and has no trouble taking scarabs out why would you think something in the overpowered vs would be a "match"?

Insane logic failure.
Does he know anything about Warhammer?


No and majority of the people in this thread do not. They make threads like this but get offended when halo doesn't win.
Then they can't make valid arguments if they don't know anything about Warhammer.

I dont know about Halo wars but...
The way the scarabs where defeated in halo is boarding them ...
So it means they have very strong armour.

Evidenced by the pelicans firing volleys of missles (AH) and not even braking its weak spots (legs).

Please dont argue about me not know about warhammer.
All knowledge i have about warhammer is from wiki.

Um they are defeated by boarding in the games because that is the only way the player can defeat them. Even then I have taken out scarabs in vehicles countless times. Um if you are referring to halo 2 that was a mining scarab not a combat scarab.


So you don't know warhammer, as we said.

Just to cut in here; don't use the Warhammer 40k wiki, use Lexicanum. I was looking on the wiki and came across fan art being passed off as canon among other things.

It is completely ridiculous. Somehow, it manages to go from crazy to dark. Case in point: Orks. In universe they are terrifying but out of it they are the comic relief.

I looked at a gameplay video and it didnt look too good, but to be fair i actually only watched it for about 30 seconds. Does anybody know if it plays too good?

P.s. Ignore the grey thing in my previous post, i just noticed that he had arguments with everyone so i felt like making a -blam!- joke out of it

Considering the average game plays about 3< hours and a single turn can be longer than some TV shows, 30 seconds isn't going to get you much.

Emperor titan could shoot a Scarab into so many pieces you'd never find them all... When I said that the Lekgolo could potentially make something to rival Dreadnoughts, the scarab wasn't it.

Orks > Brutes. But not by a massive amount. Brutes are the perfect massively over-the-top race to fit right in to 40k. They might even make friends with the Orks?.... Bahahaha!!! No...

Insane logic failure.


Don't forget about the Tyranid bio-titans... gawd... just the thought of how badly the Tyranids would massacre everything in the Milky Way Galaxy of the Halo universe is... staggering...

Before the Battle of the Capital, the Forerunners were absolutely demolishing the Flood. Then the entire leadership were wiped out and the Captive bio-haxed the remaining Flood, which gave them some really crazy infection times and forms... Plus containment paradox.

If the Imperium has had successes against splinters of the Tyranid Hive Fleets, the Forerunners will sure as hell have strings of victories... mostly because of supernovae being used as mines.

We can see into the future. What is to stop us from launching a surprise attack at the Capital when they are most vulnerable? It is child's play for a seer to determine the location of the capital. An all out war would endanger the Craftworlds. The seers trace the threat to it's root and find out that the Capital will be the place that will order attacks upon the Craftworlds. (They can follow events backwards in time too, just FYI) The seers alert the other forces and the Forerunners find a massive fleet showing up on the Capitals doorstep.

The best part is the fact that the Tyranid fleets so far are far from the full extent of the forces who have "devoured thousands of galaxies and are responsible for the extinction of millions of species."

OK obviously 40k would win but thats because its completely over the top if you brought it down to reality halo would pwn it.

"Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle."--23:5

Okay, obviously the 40K universe would beat Halo's overall, not only because of sheer numbers, but also because of 40K's mystical forces (Gods, Seers, etc.). Furthermore, Halo's contemporary forces (UNSC/Covenant) shouldn't even be considered: they would be massacred. Both species' technology and forces were completely dismantled and rebooted (San'Shyuum and Humans) 100,000 years before the UNSC/Covy era, so if anything, the current Halo universe has been in the recovery phase ever since the Halo Array was activated.

Now, before the Human-Forerunner War, the Forerunners and Human-San'Shyuum Alliance combined would pose a much bigger threat, but ultimately, without even having to read up sufficiently on 40K's universe, I can go out on a limb and say that 40K would win.

Also, the Precursors haven't even been properly explained, so segregating them to the God/out-of-bounds section would be foolish. They're far from Gods. If anything, their technology was simply 50x better than the Forerunners'. More evidence that Precursors shouldn't be put in the God category was that the Forerunners betrayed and wiped out the Precursors.

Another point: The entire Halo universe, so far, only encompasses one galaxy (the Forerunner's pinnacle as a civilization encompassed around 3 million planets only). I'll just assume that 40K encompasses multiple galaxies, based on the Virus Bomb description. Therefore, to make the fight fair, only a single galaxy's worth of 40K should be pitted against Halo's. But again, this thread's question is about entire universes butting heads, so automatically 40K should win.

Do you even pay attention to the canon? This isn't true whatsoever.

I Beg to differ. Necrons don't have a Nervous System to infect. Are unstoppable Machine that are made from "Living Metal" And can build WMD's that can destroy entire Planets.

Another question is Do you know anything about Warhammer 40,000? if not, Your Argument is null and void in all Fairness. You cannot Compare a universe you know nothing about :p

Just because they can't be infected doesn't mean they can't be destroyed. The flood "consumes all". Hell the gravemind managed to turn mendicant bias rampant simply by talking to him.
