star wars ships don't have shields?

Star Wars has many more ships, which are smaller and more maneuverable, plus they have the force. They don't need shields!
Star Wars ships also don't shake all their occupants out of their chairs when they get hit by a wimpy laser.
 
Star Trek has functional computers, Star Wars has people looking out the windshield of a fighter trying to fly while a droid goes bleep bloop.

Star Trek could tell the computer to mop things up while they have tea or dress up like Sherlock Holmes in the holodeck.
 
Someone had done comparisons between the weapons used in both. Star Trek had more realistic power usage for their weapons while Star Wars were orders of magnitude higher. Not sure Star Trek shields would matter if getting hit by weapons from Star Wars.
 
Star Wars ships are too fast for Trek to win any sort of war.

In Star Wars people routinely travel from one side of the galaxy to the other. The whole point of Voyager was that it was going to take them a lifetime to get from the Delta quadrant back home.

Star Wars ships could literally choose their battles; hit and run your bases, supply depots, manufacturing centers, resources, and citizenry with impunity. You can't win against that kind of disparity in strategic maneuverability.

That's without even looking at the ship to ship match ups.
 
lulz bird of prey or romulan war cruisers will eat SDs for lunch. Starfleet is actually the least powerful when it comes to military

They have shields, they just call them deflectors.

They also had cloaking tech but it was very rare and debilitating to the host ship(no visual or sensor data)

I dunno who would win but I'd be sure to bring popcorn, beer, and a lawn chair.
 
Star Trek gets rofl stomped for various reasons:

The fictional energy output of Star Wars ships is MUCH higher than star trek and would take out their shields in one shot. Also phasers would not harm armor resistant to lightsabers or massive cannons in the star wars universe.

The enterprise is the largest federation ship and is tiny compared to a mid sized Imperial or republic cruiser.

Star wars universe has explored most of the galaxy while star trek has only explored maybe 40% of theirs.

Many Many Star wars characters have frickin magic powers(the force), only one character in star trek has powers (Q) and he would win basically any matchup cuz he is pretty much god so you kinda have to exclude him.

There are far far more humanoids in the star trek universe due to the larger galaxy, the star trek universe would be overrun.

Its no contest. It would be a joke.
 
Please not the green half circle shield indicators on the left side of the cockpit.

well, they are stupid enough to think parsec is a unit of time, it would not surprise me they are just traveling between neighbouring systems.
 
I so wish I still had my Sidewinder FF Pro (what a tough piece of engineering!) and X-wing: Alliance installed right now.

Um, no, no I don't, I gots math studies...

Kevin wiped out a hyper-violent galactic empire with a single thought. Force lightning, whoop!
 
It's all about the insystem drive. Star Trek ships move around at full impulse ~1/4 light-speed.

Star Wars ships fly around at about 1000 Miles per hour with a guy using a flight stick looking out a window.

0.25 c is 167000 times larger than 1000 mph. The Star Wars pilot would be lucky to see where the ship from star trek even was.
