First Robotech Arc? Hmmm.....

Assuming that it is the last episode i watched when the Zentradi and RDF first start talking it goes surprisingly well at first.

The Zentradi fleet may be made out of cardboard but there are a million ships. They need to avoid ground combat though, Zentradi have huge guts and Spacemarines love to rend and tear.

Also Battle Pods are so fragile i am reasonably sure they are vulnerable to bolter fire or even massed lasguns.

AdMech would probably recreate the original premise of the show by declaring that as a priceless artifact of the Dark Ages of Technology the SDF ! must not be harmed no matter the cost.

Max Sterling somehow beats up a Space Wolf and becomes friends with him.

True that.

Silly question, I'm a mad fluff obsessive, but always curious, as the Imperium is just being ground down on so many fronts, why wont they just willingly give ground and reduce what they need to defend rather than try to hold everything against everything and be spread so thin? Or is that just heresy to cede such ground?
>>
>>82871471
The Imperium has a Million plus worlds. The Republic has 14 million plus. While the Imperium has an ungodly sized military the Republic could (in theory) hold them at bay til a proper war economy got going. The Republic would be facing a war beyond any they can think of that would last generations, but they have good odds if they can get their shit together.

Any 40k vs Star Wars argument ultimately boils down to home turf advantage.

Whoever is on their own turf wins. The republic has their ez hyperspace in their own galaxy. But lack any sort of ability to use it in the 40k galaxy because they need those maps for it to work.

The advantage SW has is speed. Their hyperspace drive is way way way faster than warp travel, and they can outproduce the Imperium industrially. Yes, they have shittier armor and their weapons are maybe on-par with the Imperium, and in an even fight the Imperial Navy will win against the Republic Navy, but they're never gonna have an even fight, because hyperspace drive.

They're humanity from the year 40,000 A.D.

They conquered most of the galaxy by slapping the shit out of aliens thousands of years ago, but they've regressed socially and technologically since then.

Their normal army, the Imperial Guard, numbers in the trillions, with enough starships to transport all those men. And their tech destroys planets fairly regularly.

Socially, they're Catholic Nazis in space.
>>
>>82874335
They're an extremely xenophobic human empire that controls a large portion of the galaxy. They have near limitless resources and are not unfamiliar to throwing literal billions of bodies at a problem until it drowns in Imperial blood.

It's main weaknesses are the simultaneous corruption and fanaticism towards their God-Emperor, which has led to stagnation and the loss of large swathes of technological knowledge.

Imperial ships do have Void Shields and can withstand battles against the best Hell, Nature, Communism, Egyptian Skynet, Mold with Gunpowder, hyper-advanced Sadists and hyper-advanced environmentalists can throw at them. Plus, the Galaxy of 40k and SU are somewhat similar.

I think it would depend on the extent of the invasion. If the whole Imperium was thrust into SU, the gems would simply be overwhelmed by the sheet mass of the Imperium. If it was an expeditionary fleet, then the Fleet would die off from attrition after a time

I don't like choosing xenos over a human civilization, but come on. Just think about the energy requirements of reforming an entire fucking planet like that. This is construction equipment we are talking about with the power to do anything the Imperium can militarily. Glassing the surface of a planet would take a literal afternoon.

All the Imperium has going for it is that MAYBE Homeworld isn't used to fighting civilizations with spaceships and is more geared towards fighting other gems. By power output though, the Diamond Authority makes the Imperium look like they are chucking rocks.

What about logistics? An Imperial fleet without the Imperium to back it up would quickly dissolve as its resources run out and it can't feed itself. Gems don't have such problems and can fabricate material using a handheld tool.
>>
>>82877628
I think you're vastly underestimating the Imperium technological superiority.

Imagine the technological output of and earth with 100X more people, then imagine that 10000X, That is how the Imperium do.
>>
>>82877698
You do realize that Imperial Fleets are self-sustaining, right?
>>
>>82877681
So then why are we even considering OP's question?
>>82877698
Ships have enough food to last them for a long time. Not always enough to last an "unexpected" extended stay in the Warp, but enough for quite a few years.

Given that the Imperium is made up of Quadrillions if not more people, I'm sure they would eventually find places to colonize and reside, but you are right, Trillions would die from starvation and dehydration, as food would be rationed to the Imperium's best and most deserving assets

They got there. Tau kicked their ass, space pope got assassinated, mechanius got super butthurt and set space on fire.

The tau got pretty fucked up but the imperial fleet that was supposed to wipe them out completely got stopped at one planet.
>>
>>82877719
I think you are vastly underestimating the power requirements for ripping apart a planet like that. The Imperium doesn't do that. They aren't capable of doing it. They colonize a hundred million worlds but at most just the thin layer of a planet's surface. Homeowlrd turns entire fucking planets, core to crust, into hive cities.

The Imperium is tier 2.1 civilization. Homeworld is a 2.5 civilization. That is a big fucking difference. The best one could hope for is that the Diamond Authority rarely fights and has never fought anyone but other gems. If so they might be woefully illequipped for fighting the battle hardened Imperium initially. But by scale and shear unadulterated power output, the Diamond Authority puts the Imperium to shame.

I would assume the Zentradi, while stupid and everything, would be able to take them out by sheer firepower. If any Imperium forces were left or if they got within range to board I think it would be over because they could just "chain board" until they were all dead.

>>
>>82877888
You've got to adapt to the setting. In SU, the Milky Way is so inconsequential that it makes more sense to just imagine that the Imperium simply exists there rather than invades. They are already ill equipped to handle the Diamond Authority. Leaving them at a further disadvantage by only allowing them a fleet of ships instead of millions of worlds would be an uninteresting route.

They are going to have to deal with the Tyranids, the Tau, the Necrons, the Orks, the Dark/Eldar, Chaos and all it's subsidiaries before it can get a slice of the Imperial Pie

If you consider the warp pads to be like webways and what happened in Marble Maddness, the Warp likely didn't get fucked over by a War in Heaven and gems have no influence over it.

>implying that can even compare to what Homeworld is capable of
An exterminatus is nothing more than Homeworld breaking ground on new colony. Destroying the crust of a planet is pathetic compared to what Homeworld does to planets.

It depends on whether the Authority has gone against psionically capable species before and whether they've developed shielding against it. Unfortunately most of what we think the Authority's strength is is pure theory and conjecture.

>Two-Stage Cyclonic Torpedoes, which are a more exotic form of the standard Cyclonic Torpedoes, are the most common of a special class of rare Exterminatus weapons, designed for use against atmosphere-less or biologically-void worlds (Necron Tomb Worlds being the main example). These torpedoes possess two-stage warheads: The first stage is an unusually powerful Melta Charge that bores straight through a planet's surface all the way down to its core. The second stage is a modified Cyclonic Charge that destabilises it, in most cases physically destroying the planet from the inside out.

Ah the Eldar life.

Well here is your (you) I guess. Have a good night.

Underrated post.

It's simply a matter of time.

Fucker, you don't even know what Homeworld even has.
Stop talking out of your ass.

They poof the crystal gems. If the gems are lucky the Imperium doesn't notice the falling gems, though one would probably be broken by lucky mistake. They'd probably purge Steven and his father, as well as Connie if they learned about how close she was to the xenos scum. They then have no further resistance as they add the ancient Holy Terra-like planet with bizarrely complacent inhabitants to the Imperium.

They can convert ~95% of a planet's mass into new gems and materials and are capable of transgalactic travel. We don't know much else.

And how many millions of years did that take?
