A very small percentage of that weaponry would ever be in range of the enemy, assuming they were stupid enough to get that close. The advantage of fighting something that big is that you could stay far away and just take pot shots and still hit something, whereas the Death Star would have no chance of hitting anything small and far away with its weaponry that is most likely intended for point defense.

The first one couldn't target ships, so, it can't shoot very well

but the gravity wells would help the shot bend towards the YV ships

The gravity wells activate to suck up shots, they aren't always on, they aren't going to use them to kill themselves

i have to agree with meyer, the only reason the rebs won is because of their tactics, the empire couldnt stop a force they couldnt see, the empire and yuuzhan vong have the same way of fighting, and the universe probly would have been destroyed if they had fought

also for the deathstar 1 to fire a planet killing laser, it took 24 hours to recharge

So it's virtually useless for a full day after it fires.
The YV would have trouble if they got close to it, but no-one is that stupid. They would just attack it from afar.

YV WEAPONS MELTED DOWN SHIELDS.

SO DO TURBOLASERS



Neither of them melt shields.
And DSI defenses were designed against a large scale attack. it its said on the Ep.IV.

i was using it as a metaphor. yv weapons pretty much destroyed shields immediately.

No, it took some time to chew through the shields of an enemy vessel. Hence why capital ships could survive extended combat with the vong.

Yeah I agree with Dane Kiet and Meyer; that point seems a bit conviluted. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way on that one vadereclipse, just pointing out something. Why must we always take sides? (wonders idly and sadly)

shooting anything at a wall to break it down takes time. it just depends on the strength of the barrier your shooting at and the weapon your using.

Well no and i'll tell you why.

The Empire would have a chance but they would waste their time wasting countless credits and resources making a superweapon with some flashy name like the universe destroyer and planet killer etc. Then they'd accidently let someone steal the plans and forget to nail down a board protecting a exaust shaft leading right down into their reactor core. then a hot shot enemy pilot would fly in and blast the superweapon to the heavens! 8)

and this rant i just said is similair to a rant Han solo said when the subject was brought up in one of the new jedi order books. :laugh:

Well I apologize, and I will shut up about the whole matter if need be; if we really have to argue, we'll do it over PM's from now on. I am sorry that I didnt realize that my actions were causing threads to be forced to be locked, soa s I said, if we wish to continue, I will PM him, but it is his decision to do so as well.

Except that YV wouldn't have been interested in plans which where in technical form. they would have seen it as a mockery against their gods and destroyed them without second thought.
