Aw, hell naw.

Well, in fairness, his only negative attributes are having no redeeming qualities whatsoever, and having crossed several trillion moral event horizons, and being the least likable character on television. Oh, and slaughtering babies in front of their mothers. But beyond that, he's a great guy.

You have to love people like that...they make TV shows and movies so interesting.

If you were to meet an actor IRL, and your first impression is to want to punch his face in for the character he plays, that's the sign of a great actor.

In terms of sheer size and power, a Star destroyer blows most Trek ships out of the water. I don't think Lucas was limited by any kind of loyalty to realism or even reasonable thought when designing SW stuff, it was more about what looked cool.

A Borg Cube on the other hand, that would be more of a challenge. Much more comparable size and crew wise, much better shields, transporters, drones and their nano-tech.

A Cube might even be able to take on the death star

This one could have gone to the cuties thread as well.



And this propably should not have been so funny.

My response:

Assuming, for the moment, that the Enterprise is at least capable of SURVIVING 60 seconds of combat with a Star Destroyer, then what will most likely happen is that the Enterprise runs away and devises a technobabble workaround - modulating their shields to counter disruptor fire, beaming a torpedo on board the Star Destroyer, you get the idea - that then defeats the Star Destroyer. Because the Star Destroyer is crewed by soldiers, while the Enterprise is crewed by scientists and engineers.

Isn't the Enterprise also supposed to serve as a science and exploration vessel, instead of a warship? It can obviously put up a good fight, but it wasn't built primarily as a war machine. A typical Star Destroyer is equipped with 60 laser batteries and 10 fighter squadrons, and that's without factoring the ground forces they can carry.
As to the transporter idea, those don't work through shields IIRC; they wouldn't be able to leave any toys in an ISD without either dropping the shields or sending them in preemptively, which has never been Picard's style.
