For the halo universe, you don't have to take calculation to obstacles in the way, by using real time calculations with planetary coordinates, the covenant ( not even the most advanced race to begin with) could predict where a planet, or a specific spot in a solar system, would be with a discrepancy of a [b]single atom.[/b]
The forerunners or precursers? Spot on, no errors at all.
Ever played portal? Slipspace is like traveling through the two portals, every real word obstacle is ignored.
Also, 2,000 light years an hour is for a heavy war ship. If we really wanted to measure speed. The forerunners sent an exploration ship to a nearby galaxy for research on a possible flood origin.
A jedi cruiser ' s hyper drive has a range of 60 thousand light years, this galaxy was a couple MILLION light years away. The book didn't even give a specific top speed for the forerunner expedition vessel.
Forerunners transit system is so fast, they were actually limited by the laws of physics of the slipspace dimension.
Also, may I ask what does the SW universe use to power their ships? I would like to know before I give my answer to this question for the forerunners.

Edited by DarthBrando: 8/31/2015 11:22:45 PMNot saying that calculation is impossible: 2,000 light years per hour: milky way 126,000 light years a crossed= 60+ hours to cross OUR galaxy. Jedi cruiser 60,000 light years per jump; 3 jumps takes you from 1 side of milky way to the other: time elapsed during each jump = 0 time in between jumps = refuel and cool down time+ spin up time of hyperdrive engines. Ether way the jedi cross the milky way FASTER than the forerunners Idk on power supplies/fuel sources its been a while. But yea jus sayin simple math the jedi cruiser jumps in 3 jumps the entire diameter of our galaxy, which takes 60+ hours for the fore runners to do at 2,000 light years per hour.

as i said, 2,000 light years an hour is for slow, sluggish capital ships in the forerunners navy. they can make ships that can travel across millions of light years, that's dozens of times the range of a Jedi cruser's jump range. So you say they use a type of fuel? like we use oil? thats cute. You know what powers the halos?Reality. Quasi spacial reactors, micro universes ( but from perspective, the size of our universe) is created, harvested for energy, and decayed into quantum foam. think of it, an entire reality. think of how many stars, solar system, heck even galaxies are simply consumed. think of all the civilizations, an incalculable number of lives that have lived,died, and were born unbeknownst to them that they were just an energy source. Think of the matrix with the robots using humans as a power source except with entire universes across all time and space of that reality. oh, how many ships did you say the SW had, like 50 or something thousand, each capable of bombarding a planet's surface to smithereens? so can the covenant ships, let alone ancient humanity, forerunner, or precursor ships. you say that throughout all time, the SW universe would have a couple billion ships? The forerunners have a few billion ships themselves, wanna know a secret? [spoiler]those few billions of ships are at a single point in time, let alone their entire history. and that is just one of the races.[/spoiler]

Edited by DarthBrando: 9/1/2015 12:00:50 AMSo how come pillar of autumn max speed is 959C in FTL vs the death star's 1,000,000+C FTL? (C= 288,369 m/s aka speed of light) Idk im some what out of date on halo history yes Yes hyperdrives use some sort of fuel (more like anti-matter than oil tho) The smaller the craft with the hyper drive in SWU faster it can go, millennium falcon IS fastest. http://www.fatwallet.com/blog/fastest-ship-in-the-universe/

Edited by BladeEdge545: 9/1/2015 12:33:36 AMalso here is a list of the races in Halo from least to greatest. -Current humanity ( our timeline humanity) - they built the pillar of autumn - could easily make a crater kilometers wide with a single mac cannon, also they have a few bombs capable of destabilizing ( almost completely destroying) a small moon edit: The Pillar of Autumm is not the ship capable of creating said multi kilometer-wide crater, the UNSC Infinity is. in terms of firepower, the Autumn can probably make like a half-kilometer explosion. -The covenant - capable of bombarding every square meter of a planet's surface, making it inhabitable. in comparsion to Current humanity, could also blow up moons and/or planets -Ancient Humanity - same type of technology concepts as the covenant, except more advanced- (let your imagination flow in terms of destruction power by comparison) -Forerunners - they can literally create planets, consume universes for power, and completely atomize entire body's of mass in terms of destructive power -Precursers ( their ships were literally invulnerable until the halos fired, destroying their biological core , causing them to disintegrate) in terms of destructive power.. literally everything. think of being atomized across the entire space and time continuum, not only is the target atomized, but scattered across dimensions, universes, quantum foam, and space and time ( [i]you are forever lost in the dark corners of time[/i] )

In star wars idk order but you have these; The mandalorians ---> a small empire of a few thousand systems The vong----> dominant species of an entire galaxy with tech of organic and seemingly dark magic origin and force sensitive The jedi---> need no explination The sith---> also no exp needed The bounty hunter's guild---> mercs from a crossed the galaxy each with their own tech The Hutt crime syndicate---> conglomerate of smugglers, pirates, slavers, traders, merchants under control of the hutt clan The wookies---> home world kashyyyk, each as powerful as a jedi regarding strength and intelligence, live extremely long lives The mon calamari---> ocean world ppl, build the best starships in the galaxy regarding frigate to cruiser class The trade federation---> largest droid army and resource pool in the galaxy thanks to the aid of the commerce guild and banking clans The nightsisters---> force sensitive witches who can tame and ride rancors amongst other abilities The ancients from the sith culture---> alot of the EU stuff gets mixed up here; vujn an korriban are key worlds to it, the ancient korriban warriors were EACH 10x as fierce as Darth Vader and vader on the battlefield was nigh invincible. Naboo: hub of artisans and amazing and sleek tech Corellia: major starship and weapons producer An there are a TON more but these are some of the KEY factions. Also JUST from mostly the new ERA (not old republic) and the lore around that, tho some is from the old republic like the vong ect...
-
thats becuase the pillar of autumn is a primitive ship. thats in the year 2550 humanity. that is an entirely different race, on a different level of technological advancement. very very primitive. Im not talking about 26th century humanity. i am talking about a race that is millions of years older, and are millions of years more advanced than current humanity. tbh, i am somewhat out of date on SW history and theories, i didnt go as deep into SW as i did Halo.
-
To take an example then; The VONG, arguable as advanced as the fore runners, they are a race just as old and FROM A DIFFERENT galaxy; invaded with a GALACTIC invasion force, with some crazy organic based and very advanced tech, and they LOST to the OLD REPUBLIC era of SW tech
