This one is obviously a lot different than most versus episodes... hope you enjoy it anyway, wasn't planning on getting a video out today.
Obviously, it is the ViteRamen faction to win against the UNSC and the Rebels
Good to see you getting back to these versus videos. They are the best!
How many AT-TE would be needed to take down godzilla (2019)
I love to see versus back!!!
Did we really only have two Vs last year ? That doesn't seam right lol or am I missing something here...I've I been r/whoooos'd
I assume the UNSC would just send in their Spartans and call it a day. After all, they WERE originally meant to fight rebels.
Excuse me sir thats oni wouldn't want u to say that... its heresy

@@ESFNinja Would you like some girl scout cookies? We raising the money
they dont have enough spartans to out right win. and if the rebels get luke then its worst for them.
@@CoolMyron Spartans can also be used for assassination, they don't have to play fair (unlike Luke)

Rebel machinery: Has no firewall
UNSC AI's : "It's free real state"
You should hack their shoes too, so they can't walk
I don't think hacking would be that easy, since the computer quality is very old and their networks aren't the same. It'd be like a hacker on Earth trying to hack into a computer system on an alien planets internet without having any real access to it. The UNSC AI must first gain access to the computer systems of the Rebel vessels which is not going to be easy and I doubt they could do it from afar, they need to get into the ship. Also most things are manually done in Star Wars so I'm not sure how much an AI could do
Nope they would have to board a rebel vessel in order to hack any system in it. They are not hackable over distance, star wars ships are made so this cannot happen as the old republic lost an entire fleet to this in the past and afterwards put in protocols to prevent this from ever happening again. Their systems have to be entered manually.
Their computers don’t network. There is nothing to hack. Everything is connected across a ship by hardwiring. Nothing is wireless. Also why you never see anything wireless except remote comms. There were slaving circuits but those are specialty hardware which is rarely used.
@@mackenziebeeney3764
If Star Wars ships don't have such wireless comunications or AI, then they would be a damn easy target for the UNSC. If any Spartan boards a capital ship, all they have to do is attack a hacking device to allow a UNSC AI to remote control the warship and turn it into a battering ram
The SW ships already lack CIWIS, Guided Weaponry, or even computer tracking for their energy weapons.
They have to fight at close range firing like WW1 ships.
UNSC can sit at range and snipe them all day.
It would be the inverse of the UNSC vs The Covenant, with Rebels having to sacrifice Dozens of ships to sink a single UNSC vessel.
Pre-Covenant UNSC was already dealing with rebels and had their fleets at their peak. Post-Covenant UNSC has access to forerunner technology.
Plus, they don't design their weaponry with weak spots that make them collapse instantly.
I definitely see AI controlled point defense guns making Y-Wings even more like flying coffins than normal.
SW fighter craft in general would all be flying coffins.
AI controlled weapons in general would also defeat SW weapons ranges (10000km compared to 10km max).
SW FTL is unusable as a tactical weapon, you can't jump around inside a system. Halo FTL can be used to jump distances from 10 to 10 trillion KM.
Halo sheilds are better. They stop everything, have to flicker on and off to fire. SW sheilds are a joke, their sheild generators are not inside the shields, as evidenced by fighters been able to attack them directly while the sheilds were still up. If this is the case, UNSC ships would shred them. Archer missiles are guided precision weapons.
On the ground, UNSC stomps, simple because they know 2 things. Military tactics and orbital fire support.
@@cgi2002 you forgot Spartans would stomp any rebel troops unless luke was there cuz the force is op as shit
@@dragonhearted7761 tbh that's basically accepted. Frankly ODST's would stomp rebel ground troops and normal marines would be the match of the best troops the rebels have to offer.
Even should Luke be present, it's entirely possible Spartans would stomp him, they are just as fast if not faster than him, far stronger than him, and lightsabres don't block physical projectiles, especially ones that move at realistic speeds unlike all those in the SW universe. They are also immune to force abilities (as non force connected beings such as the Yong prove), best he could do is throw rocks at them, and they'll just respond by throwing them back or dodging them.
@@cgi2002they're immune to force but their armor isn't, and jedi can force ships to move around, so luke can just crumble them up like tinfoil, everything else you said was accurate, Luke is their only trump card like at all and would most likely die to being overwhelmed by gunfire unless he just goes and crushes everyone and then dies to a orbital bombardment
@@dragonhearted7761 their armour is stronger than any known material in the SW universe with the exception of the hull of the sun crusher.
Also, Luke crushing their armour has the problems. Their bones are nigh unbreakable and the armour itself is powered and would resist been crushed. Also as their armour is from outside the SW universe it also has no force presence. All materials (metals, gas, everything) in the SW galaxy have to have a presence in the force, how else can a Jedi/Sith interact with them.
“Rebels don’t leave plasma burns”
Jorge says as Han smugly loads his DL-44
It’s a halo reach quote and the reference to Han is funny because he is a rebel and does in fact leave plasma burns
"rebels don't leave plasma burns"- some dumbass
Nearly every weapon in in the Star Wars galaxy: "am I a joke to you?"
@Darth ball that’s the joke lol :D
Yeah but DL-44 has 100 shots out of a standard Tibana gas cartridge unlike an UNSC M6 Magnum which has 8 rounds meaning 12 magazines of 12.7x40 mm ammo for Jorge to match Han Solo's 100 shots for his DL-44. Speaking of the standard issue Blaster rifle for Rebel Soldiers the A280 blaster it has 100 or 500 shoots out of a gas cartridge which means UNSC Army / Marine MA5 need to carry 15 magazines 7.62x51 NATO 32 rounds to match a Rebel Soldiers 500 shots from his or her Blaster rifle
@EpicThe112
Dang I was just joking lol 😂
FOR A BRICK HE FLEW PRETTY GOOD
Haha! Good one!
Haha! One of my favorite lines from all of Halo!
😂 Love that
That was one of the better jokes in the halo franchise
"Regret, regret, regret. Any idea what it means?"
"Dear humanity. We regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to earth. And we most definitely regret that the corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet."
"Hoo-rah"
6:36 - "Covvies had shields, and so would every ship in the Star Wars galaxy."
*cries in TIE pilot*
SW sheilds are a joke and don't actually exist. They are a pure plot device. Or to be more precise, their sheilds don't actually work against anyone with any brains.
Its seen on multiple occasions that their sheild generators (especially those in ISD's) can be destroyed without first knocking out the sheilds, meaning they are outside the sheilds, meaning their sheilds do not offer complete coverage.
The arguement of "the fighters flew inside the sheild to do it" means the sheilds don't stop fighters, thus they don't stop solid objects, which means they stop exactly no UNSC weapons fire.
If the sheild generator is outside the sheild, archer missiles would make short work of them all.
If your going to have sheilds, they have to actually work properly.
Also Covenant sheilds are much more solid, they have to flicker on and off just to fire through them from the inside, so fighters can't do the SW tactic of shooting sheild generators. Ion torpedoes don't hit the ship, and would have no effect on the sheild (nukes also do EMP and they did nothing to covenant sheilds).
@@cgi2002 playing devils advocate here. I have no horse in this race. That said...a couple issues with your statement.
1. The movie dialogue clearly states their shields were down moments before the a-wings bombed the bridge projectors/sensor domes.
2. Last time I checked star wars ships had 2 types of shields ray and particle. Ray shields stopped energy weapons while particle shields were for kinetic weapons.
3.Ray shields are projected away from the hull allowing fighters to fly in as ray shields dont stop physical objects. While particle shields hug the hull.
Edit: emp and ionization are two different phenomena.also we see the ionization effect of missiles and canons spread across shielded ships as seen in the empire strikes back and rogue one.
@@marcosrios1246 fair points but i have counters. Sorry, this gets really long.
Point 1: the 2 A-wings destroy the sheild generator before the line "sir we've lost our bridge deflector sheild". Which leads into point 2.
Point 2, a SSD seems to have a "deflector sheild", that is neither a Ray or Particle sheild, unless it is a term for a combined version of both, so I'll go with that. So the claim to have 2 types of sheilds i'll accept, but the sheilds can't/don't work how people have claimed, atleast not according to how physics says they should. Also as much as I hate ep8, Kylo flies inside the sheilds of the Raddus (they are clearly up, there would not be a big bloody hole in them for the hangars, if there is Halo would abuse that too).
Episode 3 Anakin & Obi'wan get caught in a "ray" sheild. If it doesn't stop physical matter they could walk through it, they can't (or don't, they are idiots after all), so ray sheilds also appear to stop particles aka matter, atleast solid matter. (Provided the dialogue was accurate).
So SW actually has no directed energy weapons, all their weapons are physical weapons that rely on some form of matter. Their blasters, lasers and turbolasers fire what is according to physics, plasma (ionized gas is plasma). Their lasers simply aren't lasers, they are plasma blasts, the exception is a super turbo laser, it is an enigma (too slow to be laser, but doesn't behave like a plasma stream, not important here anyway).
So a turbo laser fires a plasma blast, you stop the physical material, you'd stop the energy effect, leaving it floating in space as a plasma cloud. Unless that is the sheilds actually repel physical projectiles (never seen know screen, so not the case), all they do it neutralise their kinetic energy by absorbing it all (exactly how physical armour works).
This is a particle sheild, it works only on solid matter by removing kinetic energy, unless I am completely wrong.
So with that in mind, a sheild that stops physical matter would stop all SW weapons, yet it apparently doesn't, or atleast isn't the go to choice for it.
Moving on, a ray sheild doesn't appear to stop actual flames, meaning it can't work by absorbing thermal energy. So logically if it works on SW energy weapons, it absorbs the ionizing radiation that is turning gas into plasma or it dispels the magnetic forces holding the blast together as a single cohesive projectile. Both are viable options, the latter is easier, but visuals don't show either case. They show blasts hitting the sheilds and detonating as a fireball effect. My mind says, these blasts actually hit a particle sheild, and Ray sheilds don't exist as they don't seem to work as anything but a solid wall, and yet fighters can still fly through them.
Frankly SW sheilds are too inconsistent to be deemed a viable defence, they are a plot device, shown to be both impenetrable and entirely fallible as the need arises.
Random extra bit because, this is already too long.
Should note I am purposely ignoring the actual scifi plot hole with all sheilds. A sheild that stops everything makes you both invisible and blind. No light gets in, none out, your ship becomes a solid black bubble from the outside. And inside you see nothing, at all. You would also be cut off from everyone else as communications also can't work through this.
The arguement of "they don't block X frequency on the EM spectrum" doesn't work either. You leave a specific weakness, someone is going to find a way to weaponize it. Only way to explain this is mirco weaknesses in the sheilds, tiny holes that open and close constantly, alot like how covenant sheilds pulse for weapons fire, but smaller and alot more of them.
@@cgi2002 but what you don’t realize is that Star Wars weaponry have both plasma and laser
@@cgi2002 The shields would have to be down In order for there to be damage in the first place.
As for the ray sheilds.
Ray shields will fry organics it's been stated and observed either in film as you noted or official material. The energy field it creates absorbs incoming energy lasers, plasma, radiation. The energy pumping through them is enough to kill an organic. Battle droids have been seen stepping through shields though, but they are metallic in nature though.
Yes, I agree the shields abilities in star wars are inconsistent and some do seem hybridized. Best examples scarrif's sheild which was visible, and death star 2 which were invisible but they banked hard away from the shield when they realized it was still up. Maybe it depends who makes the shields in universe? Gungans, mon cals, or imperials etc.
2nd Edit: What in the blue blazes? TH-cam swallowed my 1st edit. I'm not gonna try and retype all that on my phone again.
I don't disagree with your statements. Just there are some explainable things happening in the films and mechanics of the star wars universe. Are they inconsistent and plot driven? Absolutely. I prefer consistency myself and it leaves me shaking my head when they cant get their shit straight.
The thing is, that is OFTEN missed when talking about the UNSC is how they are used to being on losing side. Its no secret that the Star Wars universe is more advanced than Halo when it comes to cruisers. Butttttt, you have to remember Eck, that the UNSC turned what could have been a short war into a 28 year year with how the UNSC started to fight back against the Covies. If we look at the Rebels WITHOUT Plot Amour, I say they stand no real chance. Sure, they have the better tech, and some really intelligent admirals, but the UNSC has people like Admiral Cole, Captian Keyes, Miranda Keyes, Lord Hood, etc. Most admirals in the UNSC managed to outsmart the Covies most of the time. You also seem to undermind the sheer power of the UNSC guns. Fighters and bombers WOULD NOT be able to get close to any UNSC Ship, due to their superior point defense weapons, and if we included Sabers and Shortswords, fighters would hold them back. The UNSC may not be as powerful as some of the Rebel ships, but damn, they would make the Rebels cower in fear.
I agree, however, the UNSC depended on the Covenants arrogance and suicidal tactics to outsmart and combat them. I have no doubt that the UNSC could outsmart the rebels but it would most likely not be as effective as their response to the Covenant.
Right The UNSC had the Insurrection to teach them how to fight in space and to develop the weapons which would later prove vital when the war with the Covenant. Also the UNSC's use of AI is also instrumental in their tactics as AI's tend to help with precision and creativity on the battlefield.
@@Lewd-Tenant_Isan The UNSC had been fighting an ongoing insurrection against other humans when the Covenant war sidelined that. They depended as much on their own skill in naval and ground combat as they did their enemies shortcomings, as any commander would. They were thinking strategically when fighting against humans, and were thinking strategically when fighting the Covenant. Taking advantage of your enemies weakness is sound strategy. The UNSC also has very advanced AIs which can help them out immensely. Droids I think are inferior compared to an average UNSC AI.
Rebel Alliance: We are rebels
UNSC: so you have chosen death by spartan *builds Mjolnir with malicious intent*
Very well said. The military skill and pedgree of the UNSC is amazing. The education, leadership, experience, bravery, and cunning of their leadership is remarkable. Cole, Keyes, Hood, Hacket, and pretty much any partway competent UNSC officer would be a special legend in the Rebellion.
The professionalism and quality of the UNSC also extends to their individual troops. The average Covenant Elite that they have to fight on a routine basis is pretty much a Dark Trooper. UNSC fighters are more skilled and better trained at combat. Star Wars troops walk in linear formations to get themselves killed in huge numbers.
One place the UNSC would be decided better would be in ground battles. Their standard weapon, the MA5 series, sends downrange 10 7.62x51 shots per second. Those kinds of shots defeat light cover, light personal armor, and go through and through bodies. They're destructive in a way handheld blasters just are not. Star Wars has no good analog for the ground weapons of the UNSC. They would have significant issues with defeat Scorpion tanks, for example.
The UNSC has a huge advantage with slipspace versus hyperspace. They are not limited to specific lanes, and can even dip in and out of locations and engagements. Imagine a UNSC intel cell getting the location of a Rebellion hub, sending that to high command, who send a task force of capital ships to drop in to high orbit, rain hell down with MAC cannons, and then fly off before they can react.
Here’s one for the fans: Halo’s forerunners vs 40k’s necrons. Happy new year’s eck!

@@kyodairiker well to give u 1 reason, Necrons beat em both

@@calebBalls69 Imperium of Man wins in a curbstomp.
No sci-fi universe I know of is strong enough to stand against any 40k empire. Even the T'au would roll over the Star Wars Galactic Empire just from the sheer difference in technology level. 40k is on a whole other level. To the point where the only comparison that can be made to a 40k faction is another 40k faction.

The stormtroopers have the standard E-11 rifles and the DLT-11 heavy blasters, and the UNSC Marines and ODST's have the standard issue BR-55 Battle Rifles, MA5c Assault Rifles, and the ever so iconic M6d Magnum. The CE pistol. AKA *The God Pistol*

@@tannerlucas4351 The "God Pistol uses a 12x45mm he ap round. The battle rifle is also good
@@georgefeser6483
Just with the god pistol is enough. Anyway, just a few uncs marines could take out a group of storm troopers easily.
Like come on, they could take covenant groups that had 1-2 elites, jackals and grunts all by themselves, how wouldnt they be able to take out some STs?
@@arcelay4764 Exactly, most stormtroopers are idiots anyway. The UNSC troops are at least competent.

I would give it to the the UNSC, they have better strategists than the Rebels it seems. The Rebels seem to mainly focus on starfighter combat and with the Broadswords or the Sabres the UNSC has they can easily take on the rebel starfighters. The UNSC capital ships and ODPs have excellent point defense systems which are typically operated by AIs. When there is a ground war or a ship boarding action, ODSTs and Spartans are far superior infantrymen than Rebel soldiers. The Covenant had better tech and the UNSC fought a 27 year campaign against them using superior tactics, and better trained soldiers.
I think a good question that must be asked is: how well do Star Wars starfighter shields hold up to bullets?
And do "slug throwers" fire fast enough to overwhelm Star Wars starfighter shielding? Because if not, then rebel fighters would do much better than we expect, even if still not good enough.
On the otherhand, the UNSC has missiles, *lots* of them, and Star Wars starfighters don't have appropriate countermeasures.
@@adamofblastworks1517 at the same time, rebel fighters would be faster and able to drop out of hyperspace already in formation, and could probably eliminate most UNSC fighters before they could really launch and get into formation.
@@scottishjedi1522
Not really. UNSC fighters wpuld stay in the ship unless it is a escort. And most UNSC ships can detect a ship coming out of hyper/Slipspace. If they noticed it was fighters, they would pull fighters back or ready, and have their point defense weapon systems handle them
@@adamofblastworks1517 IMO a Mac cannon from a capitol ship could be able to take out any star wars capitol ship in 1 or 2 shots. I also think star fighters would not be a problem, not because of UNSC fighters, but because of point defense systems. The rebel alliance wouldn’t be used to such good point defense systems. every time they would try to get in close for a bombing run the UNSC would just destroy their fighters and gunners with capitol ship guns.
@@personperson8563 Yeah, you have a *point* about their point defense :D
Their point defense did next to squat against the Covenant because their weapon shots couldn't really be shot down. They could only be detonated "prematurely" by using another ship or extra spaced layers of armor and hull sections.
Proper point defense would prevent decent usage of any starfighter proton-torpedoes (especially since they don't use tactics of having multiple squadrons dump fire proton-torpedoes en mass to overwhelm the Empire's nonexistent point defense). Starfighter lasers would put holes into the armor, maybe the hull, but not go through multiple layers and decks (do Star Wars lasers have penetration power? I guess they do, since Storm Trooper armor isn't 100% effective...) or make giant gashes in their capital ships.
Point defense would also tear starfighters apart with overwhelming fire.
However, I'm not sure how well MAC cannons would be able to deal with rebel capital ships. They had issues dropping Covenant shields (possible, but difficult), and many Mon-calamari ships had excellent defensive capabilities, arguably better than the Covenant's. They had the sections and armor comparable to or better than the UNSC, and many had *multiple, overlapping* shields. So a MAC might be able to drop one shield, but there would likely still be another one covering the same area.
Eck, the UNSC Longsword class fighter needs some more respect. It's like an A-10 Warthog crossed with an F-15A Eagle crossed with a PT Boat. In space!
Is it faster than rebel ships
@@thealexgundam5006 Considering it would have to travel far enough that Chief could watch Alpha Halo tear itself apart from the opposite side of the ring (over 10000 km at least) in less than 2 minutes, that thing would be BOOKING IT
It still have no shield ,-,) *sad* It will be a lot cooler
@@Sigma-gb9yd
True that's fast, but I'm asking is faster cause eck say the star wars ship is faster than anything halo has.
@@thealexgundam5006 It would have to be. No starfighter in Star Wars can cover 10000 kilometers in under two minutes. And even if we assume Chief's Longsword didn't go the direction he seems to be watching the explosion from, he would need to be at least far enough to escape the blast. That's still much faster than a Star Wars starfighter can travel without jumping to Hyperspace
700 ships at its peak? That roughly how many the UNSC would’ve had post war, at least with the modern refurbished numbers from 343.
Id say that they had maybe 2000 ships ranging from frigates or higher at the UNSC's peak. By the end of the war, they had no more than 300 ships of that size, and barely as many smaller ships. By the time Halo 5 rolls around, they've gone up to about 700ish maybe. difference is, they have better quality ships.
@@ranger3576 but at the end of halo 5 Cortana probably disables like 40% of them with her guardians
@@LockheedC-130HerculesOfficial Probably more than that. I’d say like 70-85% or more were disabled
@@ranger3576 damn son I didn't know it was that extreme
@@LockheedC-130HerculesOfficial I could be wrong. But she did send the Guardians to many of the colonies and planets that the UNSC and covenant races had. So the bulk of the UNSC fleet would have been disabled. I’m not yet sure if the Infinity was the only ship to escape or if others managed to as well.

*Laughs in Composer*
When he say that laser weapons were invented in response to stronger shields, that was just the Star Wars solution to it. The UNSC solution was to up the damage on their conventional weapons when the covenant attacked.
What if UNSC built MAC gun + Laser turret/point cannon.
They legit have the 7.62ACP as their main ammunition. I think that's pretty effective.
I also feel like people are forgetting the spartan lasers. Also the fact that mini-mac was able to demolish a forerunner structure the size of a meteor in halo 4.
If a mini-mac can do that, how much force does a mac cannon from a unsc ship have?
yeah well, what that means is that the mass driven weaponry was unable to overpower the shields even when juiced up, it just simply was no longer practical or worth it to bother with mass weponry any more, thats how powerfull star Wars shields and armor is, people seriously overestimate what human tech in Halo can do when faced against tech tens of thousands of years more advanced.
and while Covenant tech is advanced, it's not their tech, it's poorly reverse engineered tech they found that is also sevearly held back due to religious fanaticism.
@@theldraspneumonoultramicro405 Reverse engineered Forerunner tech though. A forerunner shield was able to brush off ramming a large ship at insane speeds which is a feat that not even Star Wars ships have accomplished.

I'd go with UNSC simply due to the fact that in a stand up fight, they would obliterate the rebel alliance in ship to ship combat. Even the Pillar of Autumn stood in a fight against multiple heavy CCS covenant ships, killing 4 before succumbing.
Same and then some people say "star wars shield is stronger" .........yeah let see if they can handle constant Mac round with Archer missile spam with Shiva nuclear can be strap to longsword interceptor and the most op nuclear for UNSC is Nova bomb which can completely devastation on a planetary scale.
@@Mr-Ad-196 main issue with Star Wars is none of it is grounded, it’s space opera/fantasy, not grounded sci-fi like halo. So way to many inconsistency’s everywhere in Star Wars media.
Thing is, just by sheer total numbers, the Rebels have dozens, if not hundreds of ships fo every UNSC ship. As Eck said, the scale is just different.

Goa'uld ha'tak's fire plasma blasts that aren't dangerous beyond a few meters, tau'ri ships use mass drivers and nukes which are low tech weapons in most scifi. Even the mighty asgard fall far short. Per in episode dialogue in SG1 Nemesis and TNG True Q, the galaxy class has over 3000x the power output of a beliskner class.

The lack of body armour for the rebels for the most part, compared to their weapons being (probably) Ionized plasma bolts in the same way that covenant weapons are, would be effective against marine armour. However. Marines can survive being blasted by plasma weapons, so on that alone, marines can kill rebels easily with their slug weapons, rebels would have a little more difficulty against marines equipment.
When we get to other factors, like that a typical marine squad would have varied weapons, not just assault rifles, pistols, and frag grenades, in addition to many marines having fought in a loosing war for the better part of a decade, there's a good chance a standard marine will be better prepared for combat when compared to the ragtag militia of the rebels. Sure, they had some defectors from the empire, and some from planetary defence forces. Maybe a few veteran commanders from the clone wars if you push it. But compared to the average experience of the marines, the rebels are likely less prepared.
In short, a squad vs squad engagement, I see marines winning more often than not, depending on circumstances of who is ambushing the other, how quickly their leaders respond etc. (Also pretty sure Eck, or generation tech has already done a video on this topic)
There's one thing I see alot of people forget about or just leave out when talking about unsc ships vs other factions. Its that mac's that when hitting a covenant ships shield didn't just fizzle out and do nothing, it would push or throw it around. Covenant ships shields could take the impact but they are in space and the kinetic force from the mac round moved into it target. One example is a single Super mac's round punched through covenant super carriers shields and went through the entire ship from to back and as it was passing through it the kinetic force tore the ship a new one and tore its armor off. Mac's do a ton of damage, just think of how a mc80 would fair when a round lands on its shield and the entire ship is moved or flipped around. Also missiles tend to pass through star wars shields and unsc got plenty of those just saying.
Star Wars shields fall into two categories, ray shields and the normal "energy" shielding. Ray shields are, essentially, unbreakable walls that disintegrate basically all physical material and kinetic energy placed against them. The only caveat being that Star Wars ships can't shoot back while they have those shields up, though considering Star Wars tactics being a tad bit more advanced than UNSC tactics -this being a conclusion drawn simply by the fact Star Wars has defined itself by having large-scale space battles be the norm for most of their history- this one weakness could be worked around. Especially with their use of Mon Calamari capital ships, which were monsters by their own right, and old Republic capital ships they could simply use a front line of ships acting as shields, a tactic that is commonly used in both Legends and canon, to take many of those rounds and allow the other ships to deploy fighters, fire around them, and simply be safer. Those shields would go down eventually, but the UNSC lacks a lot of defense when it comes to their ships and would probably get picked apart.
So MAC rounds would definitely do some damage, but the moment a single ship realizes that the UNSC exclusively uses kinetic weaponry then the Rebels would act accordingly. So it's not the end-all-be-all you make it out to be.
The problem with that is that the Rebels would largely be using fighters to attack the UNSC, which are far too.small for the MAC gun to be usable, and can close the distance before the UNSC ships can do anything to them, just look at the battle of Having, where rebel fighters cover a distance of 500,000+ KM in a few minutes.
@@silentdrew7636 You forget that, unlike the Empire, the UNSC actually uses point defense systems. The standard Paris class Heavy Frigate comes equipped with a dozen coilguns which are noted as specifically being effective against enemy fighter craft. In addition it has a point defense network, so missiles and torpedos can be shot out of the void before even impacting the ship's hull.
@@Kit_the_Kitsune that requires the UNSC manage to get a target lock on the rebel craft, which assumes they're not being jammed, haven't been hit by ion weapons, and that the rebel.ships are moving at a speed the guns can track I doubt UNSC point defense can track relativistic or superluminal fighter craft, we X-Wings do both in A New Hope and the Mandalorian respectively, without using hyperspace.
@@silentdrew7636 So what you're saying is even regular, non force attuned pilots can maneuver at those speeds? Right...
I'm not questioning the fighters themselves, I'm questioning the reaction time of the pilots. Dogfights and 'playing chicken' would result in instant head on collisions as by the time you've realized that you're going to hit something, you've already hit it. I think the UNSC is just fine, all they have to do now is eject their trash into the path of oncoming rebel fighters and watch the fireworks...
I think since there's been ship ramming in star wars and not at projectile speeds i believe MACs have a good chance of being effective. Plus one thing in star wars seems to be that everyone is pretty much technologically neutral and the UNSC has the need to grow to meet a challenge every time. Capturing any enemy ship in any engagement or even pillaging wrecked ships... i dunno the tech is just everywhere in star wars and ONI would be like "did somebody say upgrades? "
on top: SW tech is mostly tech operated and understood by humans.
ONI will have a lot of fun extracting info from POWs , the UNSC would get stronger by fighting rebels, reverse-engineering the tech and upgrading their own ships.

I'm so glad to see you doing versus again. It's what brought me to your channel, but I still loved your content over the past year.
Here’s a fun one:
The Imperial Fleet orbiting Endor
Vs
The Covenant Invasion Fleet of Reach
I think that would be awesome to see
I think he already did that
I think the Covenant would win that pretty easily. They'd absolutely mop the floor with just about any star wars fleet if they had The Long Night of Solace; which the Reach fleet technically had.
@@andrewwilliam7890 The Deathstar would have destroyed that with one shot. The Covenant would still win if we're talking about just the two fleets though, because of their huge number advantage.
The only way the Empire could win is if the Death Star's shield generator doesn't get destroyed and that shield is powerful enough to withstand the firepower of hundreds of ships.
@@tarmairon431 But you have to remember that the Reach fleet was commanded by the Arbiter who was considered a tactical genius and never lost a battle to humans until the Master Chief blew up the Halo. I think he would be smart enough to at least attack the Death Star from behind because that things slow and clearly has a limited field of view.
Honestly, even if the rebel’s shields were as strong as covenant shields, I don’t think it would matter. In various points in Halo, you can see a MAC round from a UNSC ship punch straight through the shields, and still have energy to go in one side and out the other of the enemy ship. And even at that? Missiles... nuclear missiles, regular missiles, they’d just peck the rebels apart. And from how well the Pillar of Autumn held up in Halo Combat Evolved, I think it would take a long time for the rebel fleet to destroy UNSC ships.
The ships like the Pillar of Autumn could last a long time in battle, but in combat evolved the covenant don't want to destroy it because the debris could damage the holy ring (halo)
@@Code_DarkWolf
That is true, even the UNSC Spirit of Fire, a older model ship, was able to stand toe to toe with a Constant Destroyer
To be fair The covenant were ordered to board the autumn and not destroy it. Keyes probably knew about it and destroyed 4 of the ships and forcing the 5th one, Truth and Reconciliation to repairs
I agree with this. I’ve been doing research on this, and I am a Halo guy, and people often underestimate the resilience and firepower of UNSC ships. Like, I like Ecks, but he really underestimates the power of Halo’s ships and ground units.
As I read the title I immediately said "unsc"
Same. Larger military industrial complex, professional soldiers, quite a large territory at it's peak and a lot of potential soldiers.
Also the MACs are pretty powerful.
exactly. when it comes down to this stuff, I always throw plot armor out the window
In regards to FTL travel, SW ships require hyperspace lanes to properly travel across space. Any journey on an uncharted area of the galaxy will be slower and dangerous.
That's why you outfit your corvettes as advance scouts and task them to map the avenue of attack and once successful, communicate to the fleet how to reach the enemy.
If you don't want to throw corvettes away like that... then use gunships...
@@aralornwolf3140 Even so, mapping out new hyperspace routes would still be a very long and arduous process, which could take years or decades more.
@@Connor.SG-1Ring ,
Much less than you think... Use line-of-sight travel. "Hyper to that star there... then the next star" may take time to travel through each star system... but you'll get to the target pretty quickly.
This is why I dislike so many videos of Ecks when he talks about "Hyerpsace" and "Hyperlanes".... they aren't strictly needed for military applications... and you'll end up where you want to be... sure, it won't be "instantly" but they avoid all the Interdictor Cruiserss and such by avoiding all hyperspace lanes.
Well... it wouldn't be instantly until the Sequel Trilogy rewrote how hyperspace travels works in all three movies... See Hyperspace Skipping as the best counter to your objection.
@@aralornwolf3140 Still beg to differ, even in the current SW timeline, expanding into uncharted areas of the galaxy is still considered very slow.
Also, hyperspace skipping is a dangerous maneuver that risks the safety of the ship and crew. The Rebels would also need to know the exact location of the planets they'd want to target. Otherwise, they'll just end up sending ships in random empty areas of space.
Furthermore, the UNSC takes serious precautions to delete Earth's coordinates and other important worlds from their logs, in the event that one of their ships were get captured.
@@Connor.SG-1Ring ,
There wasn't a single scenario given, this "deleting earth's location" may not have happened... but if it did happen... and they are fighting in our galaxy... then the Rebel Alliance would have no choice _but_ to map the entire galaxy...
I like how you never actually came to a full conclusion, allowing people who are biased to just choose for themselves. A great way to have everyone agree in the end.

The Yuuzhan Vong fleet Vs. The Wraith fleet (Stargate Atlantis)
Oh that's a solid match up, nicely done!
Much as I love Atlantis, the Vong just have this fight. Didn't they drop a moon on a planet? Plus no in fighting among hives or need to feed on their enemy.
The Vong would win that one. Individual Hive ships are tough as hell but there's only something like 60 of them all up, and maybe 2-3 times as many cruisers backing them up. I'm pretty sure the Vong would be able to overwhelm them with numbers and tonnage, and even if it's relatively simple for the Wraith to grow new ships they don't have a civilian population to recruit for more ships crews and Wraith seem to take just as long as humans to grow up, so unless they had access to a cloning machine and the power source to run it they'd run out of ships and manpower long before the Vong did. It'd still be a good video though.

@@rc59191, chief has fought aliens that have similar abilities to the force. That and your severely underestimating his armor and speed.
His armor did survive re-entry and the following impact. That and it has a literal shield which would cause more than a few issues for a someone with a plasma sword.
I'm going to side with the UNSC for one simple reason. I see turbo laser technology to be comparable to Covenant plasma mortars, meaning that the UNSC would be more accustomed to dealing with such attacks. Meanwhile, all the defensive measures that are shown in Star Wars seam geared towards mitigating thermal energy and I foresee a fair amount of trouble defending against the kinetic energy attacks that the UNSC would be using. And I have to think that the longsword "fighters" weren't meant to be what are called dominance fighters, and I'd seriously doubt that there wouldn't be a dominance fighter, even if it wasn't shown on screen, as that would be a massive oversight by the UNSC fleet planners. Instead, I see the longswords being fighter-bombers, filling the same battlespace role as a y-wing, with a ship launched version of Halo Reach's sabre, which I'd like to call the raspier, filling the x-wings multirole function the way the pelicans fill the u-wing's dropship role, and finally a theoretical gladius fighter to fill that dominance role. I mean, the Covenant had the seraph for the fighter-bomber role and the banshee for the dominance role.
The long sword is interceptor and I think they had other variants as well.

The thing is though the UNSC alongside their AIs they could literally snipe away the Star Wars ships with their MAC guns. The UNSC still had a lot more than 12 ships after Halo 3.
Nobody really knows: it depends on how close a hyperdrive could get, and how effective shields are against MACs, as well as if the UNSC could deal with fighters attacking on their own.
@@bubbasbigblast8563 the question really is how good is the particle shielding
I mean against covenant ships it usually takes an appropriately sized mac one shot for the shields and another for the ship. If you work on the fact that both the covenant and rebels are a good bit above the unsc in tech, I'd say that same rule would apply. The rebels don't have the numbers the covenant do so Wolfpack tactics would work really well against them
More so considering UNSC ships fight beyond visual range unlike SW ships… More so on the lackluster performance of turbolasers.
@@bubbasbigblast8563 yeah and that is highly based on the skill of the pilots and pwr of their nav computer.
I think Mac cannons would be more effective that you'd think, especially coming from the infinity
especially when you consider that some of the larger mac's (like the orbital defense platforms over earth, or the punitive class that he mentions in this video) where capable (as in documented instances of it happening in lore) of punching right through the shields on covenant super carriers and coring the ship in one hit

"all they had" that could operate in atmosphere and were present in system

Yep
I think he said before in another video that deflector shields are stronger than energy shields
also shields in star wars for projectiles have to recharge after it goes up and takes a few hits and for a short time leaves them defenseless as seen in The Clone Wars series when Anikin uses the cloaked ship to attack admiral trench's ship and star wars have 2 different shields energy protection against lasers and ray shields for objects like people or asteroids and from what i have read they cant really overlap well for coverage which is why in space missiles can hit star destroyers and so can other ships cause they mostly used energy protection shields in space most often they ray shields
@@wildcat2087 so it would depend on if the rebels knew what they were getting into. Plus mon clala ships are well known for their tanks shields. If the rebels knew about the MAC’s and used ray shields’d give them the W. if not it could me anyone’s game depending on type of engagement.
Thing is the capital ships won't be the deciding factor. It will be the star fighters. A squadron of Xwings could easily perform hit and run missions on the slow clunky and in comparison relatively defenceless UNFC ships. The deflector shield they use to travel through hyperspace would likely be powerful enough to deflect stander anti-fighter weapons. In the end it will come down to a reble fighters dropping out in system crossing then moving to target in minutes or even seconds before jumping out of system and away form danger. All while the capital ships are safe a few 100 light years away

Fleet battle between
Grand admiral Thrawn vs. Ender Wiggin
Each one has an equal sized fleet with equally capable subordinates, and since Ender is from a different universe each has equal understanding of the technology they’re using. They are in command of Star Wars vessels. Pick a famous fleet of your choosing I’d suggest death squadron.
I'd give it to Thrawn. I've read enders game. But at the end of the day Thrawn almost toppled a galaxy wide republic with only nine capital ships, and ender BARELY beat back some Aliens with not nearly as many planets and a technological advantage on his side.

Oof, fair point. I missed that. If either of them just went in balls to the wall I'd give Ender a MUCH better chance at victory since thrawns fleet consists of poorly fitted ships crewed by war weary veterans.
Hell I even think ender would have the upper hand here, because star destroyers are pretty straightforward while in enders game humanities ships are... different to say the least. So ender would have a much better idea of what he's facing. Hell Thrawn may actually retreat before the battle even starts just to make sure he can get an idea of what to do.
@@spiffygonzales5899 I suspect Thrawn would have the advantage after the first engagement, as Ender's technology ( as far as I know only having read the one book ) relies on conventional technology for getting their ships places, Thrawn would be able to disengage at will, attack wherever he wanted, and I suspect be able to defeat whatever fleet Ender was assigned in detail. Also, Ender handles extreme stress well, but is kept at an extreme level of stress, which in the book leads to errors of judgment. While Thrawn is not immune to such errors, in any given engagement I would trust him to have the cooler head more able to pick apart his opponent.
Sounds like what we really need is a detailed sci fi tier list, something that would allow us to see which universes have near equal power. That or even separate it out by faction in those universes. Once we know which ones are close in tier we can really plow into these versus videos.

I believe you also while saying how hard it can be also brought up another point that aggravates me many times: Many match ups are blatantly biased because nobody did any research of the differing power levels in each universe
Correct. Much more fun when people dig deeper
@@horrificpleasantry9474 But then you always run into the issue of most authors not understanding physics or bothering to keep continuity a priority. For instance, Star Wars both treats orbital bombardment as though it is easy to glass a planet with star destroyers, yet they keep building insane death stars and satellite weapon arrays to do it like it is some kind of achievement.
The day has finally come. The happiness is overwhelming
Please keep making more versus episodes! Especially galactic versus! Your versus episodes are amazing! Thanks so much for making them! However, this one wasn't as great because you did more of an analysis. I like it when you set up a specific scenario and then decide. Its ok to give your opinion and to set the scenario. This time it wasn't a true versus but more of an analysis. Thanks anyway
Recommendation the flood vs the yuuzhang vong or the forerunners vs the yuuzhang vong
Forerunners stomp
Flood would probably stomp too...
"Well thats nice and clear right? No of course it's not" lol
Hey @Eckharts Ladder, you left out something about post-war UNSC that's really very vital to this:
They have Huragoks onboard their ships now, especially the Infinity. Not only would the rebels be forced to use their shields in a guerilla warfare tactical focus due to the size of the UNSC, but also they would hands down lose at a drawn out war due to the Huragok engineers being able to rapidly reverse engineer any and all Rebel tech. Their superior FTL? Their shields? Their fighters? Their turbolasers? All UNSC tech in literal hours after the UNSC can manage to capture it. And THAT'S where the Spartans come in and shine. Get just one Spartan onboard, and you have a captured gunship. Get a full squad of four and you have a captured cruiser. Get the Infinity in the fight, and you've taken Home One.
But I'd also like to say that neither would be able to track the other's FTL due to not understanding it at first, but Halo FTL doesn't have to be in such a straight line, even with the Covenant war era lower tech. I shouldn't have even said the rebels had superior FTL a second ago necessarily, because their superior speed and distance isn't the only metric for military tech comparisons. The UNSC ships with the help of shipboard dumb AIs, or just one smart AI for the local fleet, could jump across a solar system to wind up henhind themselves. No need to turn so slowly to about-face. Moreover, since the rebels don't have slipspace drives, the UNSC could use the portals formed by their drives as a weapon. This wouldn't work so well against Covies since they can just fire up their own drives to compensate and maintain structural integrity, hence why Noble team had to take the super carier by surprise by using a Convenient Corvette at Reach. The rebel ships would frequently be split to pieces, with half of them teleported to oblivion.
I'm extremely interested to hear what you think about these two views.
The outro is so good
Halo factions lose pretty often, but the one which will win every time is the Flood. Greatest end game threat in all of sci-fi.
The X-Parasite from Metroid makes the Flood seem like fish food.
Star Wars wins because of technology, proceeds to laugh in 40k
Master Chief: "Tell that to the Covenant."
Arbiter: "were it so easy"
The thecnology in Star Wars is thecnicly weaker
love it. 10 more episodes
ANOTHER VS VID YOU'RE SPOILING US HERE ECK
Scorpion Tank vs AT-TE? Both use an projectile as their main weaponry. Tracks vs walker, could be an interesting matchup?
If you wanna bring realism into it walkers are stupid to the absolute max and will just sink into the ground
I'd say the atte would win. I'd like a grizzly vs atte
Any of the Star Wars 2 legged walkers would be the equivalent of a mantis in Halo the scorpion tank has over 20 variants most of which would devastate an ATAT
Everybody gangsta until a Spartan comes out of tank
in the wise words of Chips Dubbo: Tank beats EVERYTHING!
The rebels would have the advantage until the unsc started reverse engineering their tech.
They dont even need to. People gove the rebels too much credit because plot armour. In Rouge One, the were TALKING BOUT Surrendering. The UNSC did not. Found the flaw in the Covenant battle structure, and Used it against them
This right here. With hyper intelligent UNSC AI and people like Halsey, the UNSC would only have to buy enough time for new weapons to be deployed against the rebels
@@wanbiis
Dont forget Admiral Preston J. Cole. The one admiral who sent 300 Covenant Ships straight to hell
@@Cameron088 The rebels could surrender because they were fighting other humans you artard. The covenant was trying to eradicate humanity, no surrender would have been accepted, ever.
@@hiibillymayshere4238
You dont need to get rude mister, The Rebels fought for freedom, and yet they are like "We should give up lol".
Great job! I’m really glad to see your versus series return as they’re what got me into your channel. If you plan on adding new factions or ships, might I suggest any of the ships from Space Battleship Yamato? It’s anime but the ships and factions are very interesting and if you want you could always use the Space Battleship Yamato from the inferior live action movie.
Something I'd like to see is maybe Jango Fett vs The Mandalorian possibly, also love these please keep em up
Its been a while you did this.
Star Wars ships don't even know what a firewall is.
I like the new intro style
New Year New Eck? He. Is. Back.
I'd love to see a proper visual representation of a protracted ground invasion between the UNSC and really any Star Wars faction, everyone I've ever seen ask the question about the efficacy of Star Wars armor V.S. conventional ballistic weapons seemed to always come to the conclusion that conventional ballistic weapons would absolutely shred Star Wars armor technology. Seeing a squad of stormtroopers deal with some marine sharpshooters would be really interesting (not seeing blaster bolts to determine location/massively outranged/pinpoint crippling shots/ massive concussive force with even partial hits/ no self-cauterizing wounds) I know star wars blasters would still likely melt most USNC armor even more than covenant weapons, but seeing the empire panic as some unknown force using "ancient" technology just unloads with 10-20 Assault Rifles at once would just be really interesting to see how they'd adapt and try to combat such a threat.
Not to mention heavy anti armor weaponry to counter the Empire’s vehicles. Like scorpions firing at the legs of ATAT’s at extreme ranges, anti air missiles shooting down any imp transport or fighter out of their effective weapon range, combined with skilled and effective air fighters that give Ties a trip to the junk yard. And finally actual tactics that adapt to theirs and they struggle to comprehend how to beat them becuase of their stubbornness. (Talking about Imp commanders being the ones who suck)
