Ah, but the Borg have their own problems, particularly with species 8472. That, and hadn't the Feddie-engineered bio weapon virtually wiped the Borg out?

Open with Enterprise crew on the bridge at Red Alert.

Cut to the bridge monitor, which reveals a Borg cube at close range.

Picard: "Mr. LaForge, have you had any success with your attempts at finding a weakness in the Borg? And Mr. Data, have you been able to access their command pathways?"

Geordi: "Yes, Captain. In fact, we found the answer by searching through our archives on late twentieth-century computing technology."

Geordi presses a button, and a logo appears on the computer screen.

Riker (Looking puzzled): "What is 'Microsoft'?"

Data: "Allow me to explain. We will send this program, for some reason called 'Windows', through the Borg command pathways. Once inside their root command unit, it will begin consuming system resources at an unstoppable rate."

Picard: The Borg have the ability to adapt, Mr. Data. They will alter their processing systems to increase their storage and CPU capacity."

Data: "Yes, Captain. But when 'Windows' detects this, it creates a new version of itself known as an 'upgrade'. The use of resources increases exponentially with each iteration. The Borg will not be able to adapt quickly enough. Eventually all of their processing ability will be taken over and none will be available for their normal operational functions."

Picard: "Excellent work. This is even better than that 'unsolvable geometric shape' idea."

C'mon, you'd knw they'd be crushed. Even Battlestar Galactica would crush them.

My cash is on the Ferrengi - it doesn't matter who wins the war, those cunning devils will still control all the trade.

**MRT144** · June 25, 2003, 20:34

Lonestar, even stargate would crush them.

and anyone who knows anything knows the people who dont participate in these debates wins

I say the first ones in B5. I really have no idea how mucht heyc oudl do since most of them decided to move from their galaxy elsewhere (hence trans-galaxic travel).

Star Trek most ceratinly is the weakest. I mean, they don;t even have any worthwhile planet killers!

And what Trek writers did with the Borg was a crime. An incredibly interesting race with huge possibilities turned into cartoon mosters, with the eventual easy defeat...

In open battle, yes, but the residents of the Duneverse are far too clever for that. Their strengths lie in intrigue and behind the scenes dealing, which are massively helped by the presence of presicient individuals like Muad'Dib. It's quite possible that the Dune forces could bring down the Empire from the inside, just as Palpatine destroyed the Republic. And let's not even consider the Federation's chance; those naive and trusting morons would get taken down in a second.

I put that option in there as kinda a joke.

That a) can't shoot straight and b) get slaughtered by teddy bears.

Support allegation "1" Or at least prove Stormtroopers (not the army) shoot less straight than The nonexistant Federation army.

PLus, The GE has combined Arms. The Federation has a.....jeep.

Allegation "B":

Superior Numbers that have knowledge of the terrain; the dozen or so Rebel commandos, Chewie getting the AT-st at the last minute, and appereantly the Stormtroopers (from Star Wars Tales) acted as if the Ewoks were "Charlies".

What's to remember? The Ferrengi could hustle them under the table with both eyes closed and their arms tied behind their back.

Han, Luke, & Leia would never have made it out of the Death Star alive.

Moving on to general incompetence, Han attaching himself to the body of a Star destroyer and escaping completely undetected.

Allegation "B":

Teddy Bears! I don't care how many came to thier picnic! The Empire had months to prepare.
