Subject: Federation vs Empire (was [HIST] Japanese Culture shock)
> Nope, the Empire from Star Wars has far superior technology to I beg to differ (well in my own crossover universe at least ;-) If you follow the logic from sites like that, there is a lot of implied superiority in Star Wars where it isn't plainly stated but taking a few statements and combining them, it infers very high tech levels. I ignore them mostly and try to make each side have the correct feel and then make a fun battle. The Sci-Fi Crossover game I'm running at GenCon this August is 'Federation vs Empire?' The famous Federation from Star Trek take on the Empire, but not the Klingon Empire, its Palpatine's Empire from Star Wars on the other side of this clash. Both sessions of Federation and Empire? are already sold out but I will have the control sheets posted on my website after GenCon. Here are the fleets involved: Empire: 1 x Imperial Star Destroyer 4 x Victory Star Destroyers Federation (TOS Era): 2 x Dreadnoughts 2 x Carriers (old SFB type) 1 x Battle Tug 5 x Heavy Cruisers 8 x Destroyers
