As amusing as the crossovers that should not be thread is, I find myself hoping that there are at least a few redeeming ones that could justify the concept. So come one come all and tell spectacular tales of worlds in beautiful collision.

Additionally, crossovers that you would like to see may also be mentioned.

Super Robot Wars
Namco x Capcom
Kingdom Hearts

Seconding Kingdom Hearts

Anything VS Capcom

Gundam Battle Assault

Shounen Jump Superstars

Super Smash Bros

Final Fantasy Dissidia

Professor Layton/Phoenix Wright video game (please, please, please come out in North America).

Evil Dead/Marvel Zombies


Crossovers that I'd like to see happen?

Anything VS Capcom. Disney, Nintendo, Final Fantasy, whatever.

A Final Fantasy crossover like Dissidia that covers all of the games but is an actual RPG and not some awkward fighting game.

Questionable Content/Portal. Think about it.

Yu-Gi-Oh!/anything really. I know that's a little ridiculous, but just imagine a work from any genre where any and all fight scenes were replaced with children's card games.

Bones/Castle

Bethesda VS Bioware video game.

Dr. Who/Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy/The Warlock series by Stasheff

I also throw my hat down for Kingdom hearts. Also, Transformers Universe and the Japanese TF seires who's name I forget that crosses over a bunch of different generations both are pretty awesome. Also, there is the G.I. Joe and TF crossover comics.

Oh, and also, a yugioh crossover would be AMAZING, though it will never happen. Speaking of yugioh crossovers, Bonds Beyond Time, the ygo movie that crosses over 5Ds, GX and Duel Monsters was pretty good.

For crossovers that do exist, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen springs to mind as an example of how good they can be.

For more hypothectical ones, I remeber hearing about a planned JLA vs The Authority crossover back when they were being written by Morrison and Ellis, now that would have been awesome.

Also I'd pay good money to see a crossover of The West Wing and The Thick of It.

Tom Clancy and Battletech in "An Entry with a Bang" was pretty darn fun.
It didn't suffer so much of "Always VICTORY!" tedium like the first half of Salvation War did ( I never got to the second half), and while I probably didn't get all the references, it was still a very enjoyable experience.

Fellowship of the Black Blade

Fellowship of the Black Blade

The Hero
Elric VIII, 428th Emperor of Melnibone, son of Sadric LXXXVI, The White Wolf, Kinslayer, Prince of Ruins and Womanslayer
http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/e/elric1.jpg
Last ruler of a cruel and decadent race, Elric is attempting to rise above his own kind’s pointless cruelty and become something better. However, the White Wolf isn’t opposed to what he considers “judicious amounts of cruelty”, only when it has no meaning or useful purpose. Elric is a philosophical soul, prone to brooding and contemplation. When in battle Elric displays a different side. He becomes a driven and ruthless warrior, driven by his demonic runeblade Stormbringer. In addition, the White Wolf is a powerful sorcerer, whose might comes from occult and pacts with entities both elemental and demonic.
Pros
1. Highly intelligent and well-educated in many things, including sorcery.
2. Skilled warrior and commander.
3. Superhuman vitality and strength due to Stormbringer.
4. Possesses the Melnibonean Ring of Emperors.
5. The use of Stormbringer in general.
6. Chosen of his demon god Arioch
Cons
1. Dependant on Stormbringer or drugs due to his own physical weakness.
2. Too trusting and forgiving at times.
3. Chosen of his demon god Arioch.
4. Barer of Stormbringer.
5. Extreme guilt bordering or suicidal tendancies.

The Lancer
Nemesis the Warlock, Holder of the Sword Sinister, Lord of the Flies, son of Bha’al, the Death Bringer, the Shape of Things to Come and the One Who sits on the Edge of Dreams
http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/n/nemesis.jpg
A devout follower of the philosophy of Khaos, Nemesis is an alien terrorist/freedom fighter and chief opponent to the oppressive reign Termight’s ruler Torquemada. His might is legendary, his sorcery terrifying, his technology strange and bizarre and his exploits the stuff of legends and nightmares to all of foes.
Pros
1. Expert Blitzspear pilot.
2. Sorcerer on par with Elric.
3. Warrior on par with Elric.
4. Innate Superhuman strength.
5. Multiple natural attack modes including claws and bites.
6. Wields Exxcesus, the Sword Sinister.
7. Gifted in necromancy.
8. Superhuman powers (great leaping and fiery breath weapon).
Cons
1. Sticks out like a sore thumb.

Big Guy I
Midnighter, Night's Bringer of War
http://images.wikia.com/marvel_dc/images/4/4f/Grifter_Vol_3_7_Textless.jpg

Pros
1. Nanotechnology implants allow him to run fight scenarios millions of times before the first punch is even thrown. Ergo, he wins.
2. Strong enough to rip out a guy’s spine out with his bare hands.
3. Enhanced reflexes that allow him to dodge bullets.
4. Super speed in short bursts (about 30 feet in a blink of an eye, faster than the universe's Superman-expy could react to).
5. Extendable nightsticks, bo staff.
6. Supercharged immune system. He beat AIDS in a week.
7. Quickly heals from wounds. NOT a healing factor. More like Slayer healing. But he does have a backup heart.
8. Pain resistance to the point he underwent open heart surgery without anesthesia.
9. He has razor-edged business cards.
Cons
1. He’s a big softy towards children and the Capitol could easily use that against him.

Which is ironic because despite an exorbitant amount of crossovers, only 2 or 3 are actually any good.

On Mass Effect note:
Renegade (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5851454/1/Renegade) - starring the Global Defense Initiative as the Human Alliance, Shepard as a biotic commando and Garrus Vakarian as Turian Jack Bauer meets the Kool-Aid Man! Spoiler:
Kane lives!
Eagle's Fall (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6965762/1/Eagles_Fall) - a "canon" prequel to said story. Urban warfare at its bloodiest. Also shows exactly why tanks the size of a small house are a great idea and why jetpacks are awesome!

Fictional (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5871255/1/Fictional) - Caster cheats. And summons Harry Potter as her servant instead of the True Assassin. Reality (and Grail War) ensues and Harry has to come to terms with being a fictional character! Stars Rin as a secret closet Harry Potter fan. Not really a comedy though, despite my silly little summary, more a study of the myth of Harry Potter.

Emperor of Zero (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7736264/1/Emperor_of_Zero) - Louise de la Valliere of Zero no Tsukaima fame summons the one magnificent bastard strategic genius that started with a small rebellion and ended up as ruler of much of the world! No, not Lelouch vi Britannia. Je vous presente: Napoleon Bonaparte!

Personally I liked the SNK vs Capcom series, and really that's the only philosophically valid Capcom vs series out there. The others don't really mesh even if Capcom twists the gameplay to make them do so.

Wicked potential crossover? Geralt of Rivia making his way through the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros.

I've noticed that My Little Pony gets crossed with damned near everything nowadays. Most of them actually very impressive.

Recently I've been thinking how Psychonauts would make for a pretty good crossover with Persona 4. Both involve beating the crap of out someone's personal demons, whether it be one's suppressed sexuality, the trauma of getting dumped in High School or...

Occasionally that universe also includes the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. No, I don't understand that part.

However, I'm kinda hopeful that there will be a live action Transformers/G.I. Joe movie sometime over the next couple of years - especially if the Avengers and this year's G.I. Joe sells well enough. That could be a good two hour mindless action romp :smalltongue:

Anyway: I like Dresden Files\anything crossovers very much.

THe only crossover I ever seriously thought about myself was going something like this.

It is after the end of Changes. Dresden fans know what that means. Harry wakes up on a cold slab of rusty iron. He groans and grabs his head, then sits up. HIs entire body is stiff as a corpse and ice-cold.
Next to him, and apparently floating in mid-air is a human skull.
"Hey, chief. You okay? You playing corpse or you putting the blinds on the Dusties? I thought you were a deader for sure."
Harry shakes his head. "Bob? Why are you talking to me in a silly accent? And since when can you float?"
"Wouldn't know about any Bob, chief. Name's Morte. Anyway, seems we're trapped here."
The skull floats around Harry in a circle. "Oh, how 'bout that. You come with instructions, chief. Some kind of tattoo. "Harry, this is me. I mean, you, that is, Harry Dresden, writing. Don't freak out now..."

2. Harry Potter, director of the Auror department of the British Ministry of Magic.
and...
3. Harry Keogh, necroscope (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Necroscope) and agent of the British psi-ops division.

Because I want to see Naruto Shepard completely pawn Kai Leng in a ninja fight.



Actually, putting Superman or Wolverine (or Jubilee, huzzah!) in Shepard's role would be interesting, given their personalities, abilities and such.

The fact that if you squint and change one or two endings you can put their whole giant robot ouevre (and FLCL and Otaku no Video and maybe Nadia) on the same timeline helps all the more.

Alternatively Super Robot Wars could just get Eva, Gunbuster, TTGL, and Diebuster into the same continuity. If the latter two had existed before Alpha Gaiden, it could have been the perfect video game...

The problem is, what I find most fascinating in Eva are all the tiny details in the setting, and how mystical and mysterious everything is. And crossovers/fanfics in general tend to ruin that, focusing on "damnit Shinji, why are you acting like a normal kid in your situation would? Be more like Kouji Kabuto!" instead.

Also, Alpha Gaiden is your favorite SRW game?

A totally wicked Crossover?

Super Mario Crossover. (http://www.explodingrabbit.com/games/super-mario-bros-crossover)
The original Super Mario-game as the flash game where you can play as Mario or Luigi... or as Mega Man, Link, Ninja Gaiden or my personal favorite, the Contra-guy. It's surprisingly satisfying to shoot the koopa king with a shotgun.

Also, Gainax crossover should totally include Panty and Stocking. I'm pretty sure they would contribute absolutely nothing meaningful to it but they wouldn't be even remotely interested of the whole thing.

Also, Alpha Gaiden is your favorite SRW game?

Out of the four translated SRWs I've beaten, it has by far the most amusing characters and story. I also find the gameplay on Hard actually challenging without pissing me off like 3 does, and not just because things have way more hit points than they should (although mostly because of that).

If I could actually understand the dialog in Alpha 2, I might prefer it though.


Also, the main reason I want a Gainax crossover is tying all the stories and themes together, which is eminently possible. Shinji getting his face punched in by Kamina or his ear nagged off by Nono is just a side benefit.

For my Contibution, Exalted/Anything. Seriously, Exalted/Familar of Zero has been proven to be awesome with A Green Sun Illuminates the Void, Exalted/Neon Genesis Evangelion with Cast in Gold, and even Mass Effect might get in on the action.

Exalted/Marvel.

Hulk is an Isidoros-favored Slayer.

Wolverine is a Full Moon.

Captain America is either a Dawn, or a Zenith.

Iron Man is an Alchemical. Don't know much about their castes.

Ghost Rider is... a redeemed Abyssal?

Thor is a Dawn.

The Thing is probably an Earth Aspect. Or a Slayer with a refluffed Viridian Legend Exoskeleton.

The Human Torch (is that what he's called? I don't really know much about superheroes) is a Fire Aspect.

Not sure how to stat Mr. Fantastic... but if you can figure that out, I can start working on my Exalted/One Piece crossover!

THat said: China Mieville's Kraken is about as close as one can get to a Planescape novel while still being set in modern London.


Another idea I had, based on the last two media I consumed:

When I brought it back, they cried fake, as they always do, these small, puritanical minds, whenever they encounter things that lie outside the little circle of comfort their minds can comprehend, denying the things beyond briefly illuminated by flashes of true science.

But not me. In the small hours of the night, I still hear that piercing cry, and see that distant, slender shape. So I went back, to these foetid jungles of the new world. I vowed to bring one back alive, if that word applies.

I had to kill others who tried, of course. Many bones are burried here, under the roots of the hungry rainforest trees. Explorers, Adventurers, Hunters. I could not take any chances. I have to be the one to bring it back. For only I have seen it, heard it, felt it, dragged those twisted bones out of the forest and into the light.

I took my hounds with me, my only companions. They were not sufficient for this hunt. And so, with science some would call terrible, but that a true materialist like me can only call practical, I changed them, deformed them. I have given them reasoning akin to that of a man, though lesser, and the power to form simple sentences. I hear them now, outside my room, the same words, repated over and over.

One day, I will succeed.

...

I think I saw a shadow, just now, over the distant mountains, floating in the air. So, finally it has happened... someone has built a new flying contraption, to sail to these cliffs at the end of the world, to steal my fame. But I am prepared...


Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen, I am mixing Lovecraft and Pixar's Up.

As amusing as the crossovers that should not be thread is, I find myself hoping that there are at least a few redeeming ones that could justify the concept. So come one come all and tell spectacular tales of worlds in beautiful collision.

Additionally, crossovers that you would like to see may also be mentioned.

1) Sailor Moon meets the Powerpuff Girls

2) Any Gundam series meets Full Metal Panic

Char Aznable meets Al and his pilot... then have the Gundam team go looking for Mithril and stumble onto the latest hijinx at the high school with you know who & Co!

3) A Power Rangers series that doesn't across as lame... okay maybe going too far there!

4) Symbionic Titan renewed and released on dvd and whatever else medium and if we're at it a new series using the creators notes and not involving a rewrite because they don't know better!

5) A Star Wars series with nothing to do with the Skywalkers, I exclude Han Solo's past because we all want to know how he ended up with a Wookie nanny and because it would be awesome to see this animated and written properly!

6) A Star Trek series based or at least inspired by Star Trek Aegean because its yet to actually start and it holds so much promise (Ideology of Madness podcast for more details on this)

7) Ditto on Knights of Reinsborough although it would have to be more adult rated due to language and violence... quite a bit of it actually!

8) Linnea Sinclair's books being animated especially the Dock 5 series but not so much of the dirty parts okay?

9) A Mass Effect tv series but not centred on Shepherd so we get more background stories perhaps some link to one of the mass effect series so we get a better explanation on why it had to end on such a completely meaningless note. Maybe not then...

10) How about a Gundam series with a Mass Effect style backdrop?
It starts off at a biotic-style academy where they're being taught to use their gifts in symbosis with a new military weapon... the Gundam however the facility is attacked and a number of the prototypes are stolen leaving the survivors under the protection of a neophyte pilot in a modified generic model with most of the teacher's killed in the attack the rest are fleeing aboard a railcart that runs underground and he has to reach the other side and clear the area so they can escape aboard one of the shuttles left there of course the bad guys whose organisation are based on the Greek underworld (Hades) are intent on securing the last remaining biotic pilots but unexpectedly the pilot gets help from members of a band of supposed terrorists who help them escape revealing one of the pilots is the daughter of a member of their group and the reason they were able to escape the facility.
Managing to reach the safety of a Terran base the pilot learns he is being recruited to help fight off a mysterious invader unaware these are his former schoolmates that were taken by Hades are being prepped to move against his homeworld and thats just for starters!

None of these are crossovers. Also, there's already a trilogy about Han Solo's backstory in the EU. Look for novels by A. C. Crispin.

And while technically a crossover, this is still basically every third Gundam series anyway.

- A Buffy/Harry Potter crossover about an actual formally trained (i.e. went to Hogwarts/Durmstrang/Beuxbatons) wizard joining the Scoobies (or Angel Investigations), rather than random amateur witches that at best read a few books.

- Sosuke Sagara (Full Metal Panic!) joining the cast of, well, pretty much anything. Like Stargate...

O'Neill: "Oh, for cryin' out loud, fishing is when you sit down with a beer and a fishing rod and just relax. You know, not think about anything..."

Sosuke: "But Colonel, wouldn't it be pointless to fish in your pond as there aren't any fish there?"

Sosuke: "Oh, I see. The point of this exercise is to teach me ambush skills in an urban setting, to see how long I can maintain my alertness while acting perfectly natural and not giving away my intention."

I can just see them trying to flee through the gate they suddenly realise Sosuke isn't there and after a few minutes of being pinned down by Jaffa fire there's a series of explosions and bullets and then it goes quiet before Sosuke turns up.

"Where the h**l were you?" O'Neil demands as Tealc activates the stargate behind him.
"Well I asked Colonel Carter what would hypothetically be the best way to destroy the Goauld mothership and not us when it blows up," Sosuke replies.
"That was just guesswork," Colonel Carter interrupts.
"Not for much longer," Sosuke nods pulling out a remote control detonator and pushed the button.
"Through the gate NOW!" O'Neil hollers as he shoves Sosuke through the gate and swiftly follows him as in the background the Goauld mothership in the throes of lifting off suddenly careers back into the ground... hard... and then explodes...

I really want to see the SR Team meet Shiro Amada and the 08th Mobile Suit Team - almost as much as I want to put Sousuke and Setsuna F. Seiei from 00 in a room and see if people are able to tell them apart. Just kidding, Setsuna's crazier.

None of these are crossovers. Also, there's already a trilogy about Han Solo's backstory in the EU. Look for novels by A. C. Crispin.

Yes my fault goofed on those!


And while technically a crossover, this is still basically every third Gundam series anyway.

Ah but my version would involve the protagonist being perfectly normal human and not newtype or whatever else they're called.
Hades is actually an extremist part of the government and the terrorists are actually space privateers whose leader had his daughter kidnapped and she's the one he's rescuing and he ends up having to help the hero stop both Hades and the other students from inflicting their ideas of rule on any body else.

So maybe every other gundam series then!

- A Buffy/Harry Potter crossover about an actual formally trained (i.e. went to Hogwarts/Durmstrang/Beuxbatons) wizard joining the Scoobies (or Angel Investigations), rather than random amateur witches that at best read a few books.

You know, given his backstory and personality, I can see Giles as a Hogwarts expellee. Probably thrown out and had his wand broken around fifth or sixth year for practicing the Dark Arts, which is why he can't really do anything useful beyond rituals unless he really puts his mind to it.


- Sosuke Sagara (Full Metal Panic!) joining the cast of, well, pretty much anything. Like Stargate...

O'Neill: "Oh, for cryin' out loud, fishing is when you sit down with a beer and a fishing rod and just relax. You know, not think about anything..."

Sosuke: "But Colonel, wouldn't it be pointless to fish in your pond as there aren't any fish there?"

O'Neill: ...

Sosuke: "Oh, I see. The point of this exercise is to teach me ambush skills in an urban setting, to see how long I can maintain my alertness while acting perfectly natural and not giving away my intention."

OBJECTION!

Fishing is the one recreational activity Sousuke actually does understand.

The SR Team and SG-1 would still make a great teamup, though, especially when SG-1 needs some heavy fire support.

I kind of want to unleash the Mass Effect Reapers on several other Sci-Fi galaxies and see what happens.

The break-even point is probably somewhere around Star Wars level, I think. Star Wars could beat the Reapers, but it would be a fight, not a walkover. It'd probably come down to how many capital ships Star Wars has available. Reaper Dreadnaughts are tough, but not invincible. A Star Destroyer could likely take one on.

Unleashing them on Star Trek could be interesting, it wold be a much nastier fight, but Star Trek does have its own evil synthetics issue in the Borg. Oh, now there's a fun idea. Replace Borg with Reapers, see what happens next. Plus, "You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it." is such a great boast, better than the Borg line of "resistance is futile". A Reapers in Trek crossover would probably be more of a battle of wills between Picard and Sovereign, and I'd be okay with that.

Warhammer 40k? Eh, just one more race bent on galactic domination. They'd have to get in line. The idea of Ork Husks alone would make it fun, though. Heh, on the other hand, the Reapers could be written in as the thing the Tyranids are running from. That'd set them up as a major threat.

I was thinking theatrics, really. "Resistance is futile." is just so clean, straightforward. A little dull. Sovereign's "You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it." is just so condescending and yet you get the feeling that he's not kidding. The Borg are telling people not to attack them. The Reapers are daring them to, knowing that they'll shrug it off, basically.

Which is the Reapers' fatal flaw. Arrogance. Granted, they have millions of years of experience to back it up, but really... It is not smart to play the odds when your plan is repeating. Sooner or later, probability will kick in and ruin everything.

Not without SERIOUS buffing on the part of the Reapers. As they stand, they are heavily out-gunned.

ME is epic in scale, but in comparision WAAAY low tech compared to everyone else. For a kick off, their ships have got minimal defences against energy weapons, and they are SERIOUSLY out-ranged by pretty much everyone (max range of only tens of thousands of kilometers); and the only FTL they could out-run is Star Trek (though to be fair, nearly EVERYONE can do that...!) In terms of weapon energy output, the ME universe is just not in the same order of magnitude. (Remember, their biggest GUNS only fire at 1% the speed of light, which is 50 times less than the Enterprise D's sublight cruising speed...) And in terms of sensors, Mass Effect's are far inferior to those in most sci-fi, especially something like Star Trek where they're practically magical.

Now, to be fair, on a ground war, the fight would be a bit (a lot) more even (and outright curbstomp the other way on the Star Trek races, like as not!)



I love the ME universe, but it is harder sci-fi than a fair chunk and is overall lower-tech compared to a lot, for all the larger scope of the conflicts.

That's part of what makes it interesting, really. You're right, if the Federation catches the Reapers in space, then the battle is short, unless the Reapers jump to FTL quick. Which they might. But they lose the element of surprise, because the Federation has heard weirder things than "fleet of giant muderbots". If Reapers are reported in, Starfleet will react, unlike the Citadel Council in Mass Effect.

But if they make it a ground war, then there's trouble. With the Husks it'd be like a Borg invasion, except with giant walking Reapers for support. And no one in Trek is really that good at ground war. So the Reapers' best bet is to hit a homeworld like Earth or Vulcan first. Pretty much the ME3 plan, just in Trek. The problem is, of course, that Trek has seen it all, so again, a rallying cry for help with giant murderbots will likely be answered fairly quickly. Some Klingons might even look forward to it.

It could make for an interesting story, at least. Trek should win this one, yes, especially if its own superbeings get involved, I'd think both the Borg and the Q would be annoyed at the Reapers messing with evolution, but Starfleet would have to re-learn ground war really, really fast to minimize casualties. This could get ugly.

Although the 40k crossover could be fun just for the apathy of it all. I mean, more giant murderbots that want to clean out the galaxy of advanced life? Yeah, that's nice. So... are you the yellow murderbots, the red murderbots or the murder-cyborgs again? Sorry, I lost track. You aren't the chaosbots, are you? Really don't like those...

That's part of what makes it interesting, really. You're right, if the Federation catches the Reapers in space, then the battle is short, unless the Reapers jump to FTL quick.

Trouble is, in sci-fi you can't take ground without starship cover... Especially not the Reaper, since they can't hide their destroyers or cap-ship groundside. And stationary Reapers (because a Reaper moving on the ground is as stationary as it gets) are trivially easy targets. Magic Federation sensors would quickly allow them to find out the Reapers have a controlling signal - and assuming they couldn't technobabble a jamming field in the first place - it's then a trivial matter of shooting all the Reaper ships from orbit, where they don't even have the limited defense of manouverability. I mean, thy're hundreds of meters tall, even the small ones. You just can't miss with the sort of targeting systems the Federation have (not to mention in Star Wars, or B5 (who also being lower-tech, actually would be a much more even match, aside from the aforementioned "Reapers still all get murdered by energy weapons."))

The Reapers might win a few ground battles early on, but they would be massecred in the war overall. (Note that their reliance on control signals renders them just as vulnerable as the Battle Droids in Star Wars, once you know their secret.)

The Reapers only hope is that they can come in quickly and quietly enough to start adapting Federation technology (which is way beyond their level of advancement), at which point it would devolve to a weaker form of the Borg verses Star Trek.



No defense againsy energy weapons is just a massive, crippling vulnerability in sci-fi, and it's compounded by the fact if you look at the sort of numbers given for most sci-fi weapons (e.g. Star Trek or Star Wars), the Reaper are unlikely to even be able to get throught the shields of their enemies.)

It doesn't matter how cool your sailing-ship armada is, if the other guy is using guided missiles, you're gonna get sunk.

You know how in sci-fi, there's the thing where the humans run into some aliens and get curb-stomped to start with, because the aliens have technology that's way beyond them? It'd be like that for the Reapers, with the problem that they are far more vulnerable, being overly centralised.

The Reapers are a "bully" fleet, best optimised to dealing with larger numbers of lower-tech enemies (not unreasonably). Against something higher up the chain than them, they're just out of their league.

The gap between Reapers and Trek isn't that big. Sure, Trek has some advantages, like teleporters and burst firepower, but there are a lot of Reapers, and Reapers are shielded too. As I see it, the Reapers have two advantages themselves.

Firstly, as you said: brute force. When they arrive, they arrive by the hundreds. No one on the sane side of power has an easy time with a couple of hundred Reapers touching down on a planet. Yes, they're not hard to hit, but there's still a difference between hitting and killing. We know from the games about how hard a Dreadnaught hits (main gun can deliver 38 kilotons every 5 seconds) and 4 Dreadnaughts to 1 Capital Reaper is an even fight. A Reaper, in other words, can take a hit.

Secondly: Indoctrination. Basically, showing the Borg a few new tricks. The nasty thing about Reapers is that they're infectious. Sure, the giant cuttlefish are scary, but it's the tiny ones that are nasty. Even a dead Reaper can still infect people. So even if the trek tech can't be copied easily by the Reapers, they can go after the eternal security hole in any technology: The user. That was how Sovereign planned to access the Citadel, before Shepard stepped in, after all. The right person in the right place can do a lot of damage. Especially in a fleet that uses vocal commands for auto-destruct. (Talk about an unnecessary security hole...)

But again, I like this paring because it has potential for a nice story. I want to see Picard encounter Sovereign and see if he can out-Shepard Shepard in talking to it, I want to see Reapers land in Trek San Fransisco, and, of course, I want a big space battle. Reapers vs. Star Trek? It has potential for all of that. I agree that it'll end with the Reapers defeated, but getting there will be a fun tale.

I have a pretty good idea on how this would go, really. Sovereign acting as vanguard scouts out the galaxy, reporting back to the main fleet every so often. Now, a ship that size will trip an alarm at some point, and a ship will be sent out to investigate. And what's the first thing Starfleet does when it encounters unknowns? Hail it. And that would be where things start to go bad... Sovereign just needs to put on a friendly face and a sad story about being the last of its kind. Reapers are manipulative and patient, after all. But basically, if the Trek ship sends over crew, the Reapers gain sleeper agents. Even if that means Sovereign is taken out and the wreckage examined.

See that's the downside of having seen it all. You aren't properly scared of it anymore.

We know from the games about how hard a Dreadnaught hits (main gun can deliver 38 kilotons every 5 seconds) and 4 Dreadnaughts to 1 Capital Reaper is an even fight. A Reaper, in other words, can take a hit.

And therein lies the problem. That is NOTHING. It's barely two-and-times a modern nuke. In Star Trek they're using anti-matter warheads. The difference in numerical power output is just not even the the same order of magnitude. FTL aside, the Star Trek ships are literally fifty times faster than the Reaper's GUNS (let ALONE the Reapers), with vastly more weapons range.

Reaper shields are kinetic barriers, which are of no protection against phasers (which have a range, on a Galaxy-class of 300 thousands kilometers, about thirty times the range of the Mass Effects "tnes of thousands.")

A photon torpedo is, according to the Trek data, releases about 690 GIGAtons, which is so far beyond the 38 kilotons as to be astonishing. (And remember, most starships can cheerfully take isolated torpedo hits without blinking.)

(To say nothing of the calculated energy releases in Star Wars, whihc are even bigger numbers.)

While on the ground, the Federation are arguably less of a threat than modern infantry (except for their energy weapons, rendering barriers and shields useless), the starship side is such a massively overwhelming advantage that it renders the point moot.

Probably the most decisive advantage is the Star Trek scanners, which are excellent (unlike their military...), which would grant them a massive advantage in recon, which is one of the more important aspects of warfare.



One other point of note is how relativistically close ME fleets fly, making them a highly dense mass of targets, meaning that an area attack (or sustained phaser attack) will hit multiple targets.



Anyway, we're side-tracking the thread a bit, so I'll lay off.

Not exactly a crossover, because they take place in the same universe canonically, but recently I was talking to a friend about how Valve could fix their problems with everyone wanting Half Life 2: Episode 3(or Half Life 3) and Portal 3. After the ending of Portal 2, where Chell is on the surface they could make a game to satisfy their stated desire for more multiplayer driven titles by making a co-op game where Chell and Gordon Freeman team up. I mean sure, they're something like 200 years apart, but the only source we have of that in game is Glados, who isn't exactly the most trustworthy.

Superman: xeno, but human-looking. If he can dodge the Inquisition's Ordo Xenos, he'll be one of the Imperium's weapon of mass destruction. Downside: a lot of space battles can't rely on there being a yellow sun nearby. And Emperor help the Imperium if Chaos turns him.

Batman: can't see him being useful anywhere except for recon and tactics. Peak human-level ninja skills don't really cut it in WH40k unless Bats starts augmenting himself with all the toys from the Mechanicum, turns himself into an Astartes, etc. Plus, who doesn't want to see Batman as a pre-Heresy Alpha Legion or Night Lords Space Marine?

Flash: useless in space. Marginally more useful on the ground for scouting and precision-bombing. Not sure how the Speed Force fits into the setting and how it interacts with Warpspace.

Martian Manhunter: xenophobia is a bitch. Also, J'onn's vast psychic powers makes him vulnerable to Chaos possession. I've a funny thought that the Martian, being green, will be hailed as the Orks' prophet and inadvertently starts the biggest Waaarrrghh! the galaxy has ever seen.

Wonder Woman: definitely adopting the Sororitas and teaching them the ways of the warrior women of Themyscira, although they can probably teach her a few things as well. Power armor on Diana is useless, but she'll most likely take to their weapons in an instant.

Dr. Fate: a sorcerer and an avatar of the Lords of Order. Except, there are no more Lords of Order and a bucketload of Chaos instead. WH40k is not a very nice place to be for Dr. Fate. Maybe the Thousand Sons will try to take him to their side.

Green Lantern: His power ring may very well not be the most powerful weapon in the universe anymore, but it's still very flexible. Emotion in this setting is the domain of Chaos, and while GL draws from Willpower, presumably the most pure and balanced in the emotional spectrum, his ring could be a deadly weapon against Chaos.
