You clearly haven't seen the old republic imperial fleet lol.it took over an entire planet with only 6-12 star destoryers

I have seen that. No one has seen the fire power of a halo. It has only been described. To OP for our eyes...

Edited by Shortbusregular: 11/23/2014 7:03:53 PMSo who would win if everything dies? No one. There is no way for halo to win without obliterating everything and destroying themselves in the process. All the SW universe has to do is shut down the rings and they basically have victory in the bag
-
No, forerunners are able to make rings in weeks. And ships in days. They build armies of A.I. and send them to battle. The Star Wars does the same. On that basis, forerunners win. Send some flood here and there and sit back and watch chaos issue. Halo has faster travel so they would win out in a battle of attrition.
-
You seem to think that a Flood-like parasite is exclusive to Halo lol. The Geonosis brain worm is 10x more scary and effective than the flood, mostly because you can't see who is infected with it. One infected being and they all become infected.
-
The Flood are not a mere parasite, they are a psychic gestalt consciousness that has existed for over 100billion years, living and dying at whim and resurrecting themselves as they see fit in what form they see fit. They are the latest incarnation of the Precursors, and with that comes the ability to warp space and time, destroy planets with contemptuous ease, and slice star systems apart using Star Roads, invincible constructs born of the Precursors psychic might. Their logic plague can infect AI thousands to millions of times more advanced than the Droids of SW. And The original 12 Halos can fire in linear directions, they can park them outside of the galaxy and just shoot it, which is what Omega Halo did to the Large Magellanic Cloud.

Edited by Shortbusregular: 11/23/2014 9:04:43 PMIf a flood got infected by a brain worm they'd be under the control of the Queen. It would be a battle not easily won, but the brain worm would still win. If you can't tell friend from foe you have no chance.
-
I have heard of parasites in star wars, I don't read the books though. Can't say much on it. How did they defeat this foe?
-
They had to either kill them all off (not the host, but the physical worm as well) and they had to deep freeze themselves, to a degree where death is very plausable. (In the episode it happened I feel like they didn't die since it was the main characters, otherwise they would have been toast).
-
Did these worms control the host? Were they contained to a planet? Did they grow smarter as they infected? Sounds like an interesting virus. Was it sentient?
-
They controlled everything the host did but retained it's personality to the fullest. The only time anybody suspected anything after the ship that was infected left geonosis was when the clones started attacking the Jedi hell, the worm even infected a Jedi for a brief amount of time. Also there's no way of knowing how many people are infected, as stated above it doesn't change it's host's personality or memories. It even speaks the same way. So yeah...
-
Interesting thanks
-
Here's video footage of it in action. All the clone in this clip are infected. All of them.
-
Creepy, so what is the purpose of this "creature"? Is it sentient?
-
Personally I don't know, I think of them as like little bits of the Geonosian Queen, as she uses them to force people into submission. She was the entire reason Geonosis rose up for a second time out of fear of the worm. But it might still be sentient in the fact that it can mimic people's emotions and personality perfectly.
