   WOW! That will bring a 1997 thread back to life! Well done!   
      
   This NG can use a good jolt back to activity. Good community here   
   historically.     
      
   The answers to the question posed in the thread will of course vary, from   
   "Which one can land a torpedo shot first" (In Star Wars, torpedoes seem   
   reserved for larger targets than fighter sized craft, while Runabouts   
   occasionally carry small versions and    
   use them on other fighter sized craft) Warp and Hyperspace are of course very   
   different, I won't mention shields, and of course there is the second answer   
   "Whichever one the writer wants to win" which tends to be a strong trend in   
   fan fiction ;)    
      
   But yes, Star Wars is a lot more fantasy driven than Star Trek. Trek can claim   
   more science cred but technobabble isn't as big a part of Star Wars (OK, I   
   won't mention "Mitichlorians" but...) Different tastes, whether they taste   
   great together depends    
   who is writing the crossover fic.)
