Eldar (WH40K) vs Protoss (StarCraft)
@wut: i will only play as an ork if i get this much dakka
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
@vandersexxx: Psh, this guy is better:
@vandersexxx: @wut: your both wrong...
@killerwasp: Ha, the best part about him is watching him get crushed by Kyras before Ol' Bluddflagg got ta stompin.
Eldar.
And all this talk about choosing different races to play in crusade.....screw em all. There is only 1 master race
@eisenfauste: what do u mean? the eternal crusade doesn't got necrons lol
@killerwasp: I was just pointing out the race that beats all the other races :P
@eisenfauste: Since when has walking microwaves been the master race? :D
@wut: Lol since they curbstomp factions when not at full power ^_^
Eldar.
And all this talk about choosing different races to play in crusade.....screw em all. There is only 1 master race
What Master race those Space Tomb Kings?
Behold the Galaxy Eater
What Master race those Space Tomb Kings?
@eisenfauste: Incorrect
Thread needs to be locked until the heresy is over
XD
@eisenfauste: Except when they are being infected with PIS and being beaten by Space Marines. :P
@wut: True that. It would be funny if black library threw out a joke book on April Fool's day that had the entire 40k universe ending in a Necron takeover lol.
@eisenfauste: "How did they beat Chaos?"
"Pylons... Pylons everywhere..."
"But strong Warp Storms cause them to short circuit (13th crusade) and shows Chaos Gods can overpower said technology."
".... shut up. Pylons!"
@wut: Haha EXACTLY!!
I feel like a lot of fans would be like WTF. Stupid pylons.........
@eisenfauste: @wut: we need more pylons! we require more pylons! XD
but relly this is how it'd end for both protoss and eldar ( eldar being the republic and protoss being the CIS ) it came to a battle this is the moment 23:14-23:24 no phucks given LOL
@eisenfauste: I love when GW forgets their own fluff. I saw a map they released that put the Eye of Terror as a large warpstorm. I was like... GW... come on man... come on.
@wut: They probably had a rookie design the map. "Hmmmm Chaos can create warpstorms so it stands to reason that the Eye of Terror is a big warpstorm.......Genuis!"
@killerwasp: Lance chargers in a Sci-fi? That is so dumb. Who would do that...
\
Oh.... right...
@wut: LOL xD
@wut: i was gonna say the Saim-Hann eldar craftworld and the white scars space marine chapter ( most note worthy ofc there are others ) lol
@eisenfauste: Lol, I love those little mistakes. In the quote below, they put Imperium Starships as 15 tetrajoules... which makes it 60 joules.... I facepalmed so hard. Average human punching power is 100 joules.
“Look at her, son. Isn’t she a beauty? Over two hundred Vulcan
mega-bolter defence turrets, fifteen tetrajoule Sunsear las-broadsides,
prow plating ten metres thick, the finest auspex masts in the
battlefleet… And the lines on her! Fluted prow, elegant statuary…
those xenos scum won’t know what hit them!”

I think he meant to write Terajoules, but... so if anyone one asks, 60 joules from capital ship fire is the lowest 40k gets in terms of 'lol really?'
@wut: This would be any factions expression when they get hit with those cannons
@eisenfauste: Yea, I would giggle like a little girl if I was on the receiving end. But that is the lowest end Warhammer ever. I still can't believe the editors didn't catch that.
So the Protoss finally face the race they were inspired from. Pretty much everything @wut said about the Eldar was what I was gonna argue with. Eldar definitely take this one.
Let me tell ya one thing i'm not hating but since i'm a fan of scifi i can't let this go
Protoss and Eldar was inspired by Skinnies
Terrans and Space Marines was inspired by Mobile Infantry
Zergs and Tyrannids was inspired by Arachnids
@jwwprod might know what i'm talking about
I don't really see a resemblance between these Skinnies and both the Eldar & Protoss to be honest.
Unless you mean by design then I still don't really see a resemblance between the Skinnies and Eldar, maybe somewhat Protoss but not really Eldar.
I always though the Eldar were like Elves in space (Though they were not the first aliens to look like Elves).
When I look at these Skinnies I actually think of Tau to be honest.
@wut: WRONG THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF ELDAR! AND THEY ARE NOT FROM HIGH ELVEN LORE!!! HUEUHEHUE YOU SHALL DEAL WITH IT! xD sorry cap lock button was broken
Eldar = High Elves
Dark Eldar = Dark Elves
Primal Eldar Dudes = Wood Elves.
Deal with it. (⌐■_■)
@wut: thats much better, "They are just High Elves from Warhammer Fantasy (Which came out before 40k) and thrown into space." <-- was incorrect and u know it scum bag XD
@killerwasp: Save that I was referring to Eldar. >.> The other two have extra words.
@aressword: what are you talking about? The Eldar can live for hundreds and thousands of years as well, they have extremely good reflexes and are tactical geniuses with excellent weapons that'd put the Terrain Dominion to shame. If the TDs can hurt the protoss im pretty sure the eldar could as well. Anyway with the gear that the op gave the eldar the eldar would fight the protoss in a very hard fight, eldar may die to space marines, but honestly the eldar are very good fighters especially banshees and dark reapers as well.
@wut: lol haters gonna hate XD
@aressword: Protoss are not made out of energy, itself. They can, and do, get killed. They live for a long time. Eldar live for a long time. Eldar 'warriors' travel numerous paths. That normal Guardian could have very well spent a hundred years as a Striking Scorpion, then two hundred as a Banshee, then fifty as an avenger, etc.
There is no difference in the level of raw skill between a mook Protoss and a mook Eldar as both live for roughly the same amount of time. Eldrad was well over 10,000 years old before he died.
@wut: and he died due to slaanesh i still believe hes still alive secretly XD.... and i wouldnt bother with this guy he's prolly gonna wank to protoss. Don't get me wrong, protoss are awesome, but yeah lol.
@killerwasp: I mean.. if he argued they were physically stronger, sure, I would agree to that.
But skill wise? O.o crazy talk.
@wut: even stronger is an if, eldar are pretty dang strong depending on the path they pick as well. O well get back to working on those essays nerd! XD
@killerwasp: I think the strongest are Striking Scorpions, and I think they are still in line with humans.
Don't tell me what to do!
@wut: @killerwasp: yes the difference is the protoss have better tech and i'd argue better fighting skills. In addition each protoss is psionic which in turn the eldar are not, so with that in mind again the eldar are not winning this fight.
@aressword: First off, in just another thread, you talked about them have equal tech, now the Protoss have better tech? Mind making up your, well, mind on that one? Also, some proof would be lovely.
You could argue it if you provide some proof as to how Protoss have more fighting skills then Eldar despite both being highly trained, long lived warriors?
Yes, psionics, yet most Protoss cannot manifest awesome storms like you seem to think they can. Would you mind explaining to me how this suddenly gives them the win despite most protoss using Psionics mostly for their shields?
@wut: For whatever it's worth, even Zealots are mind readers in combat.
Not sure if that gives them too much of an edge or not in this battle seeing as 200 Dark Archon should win this handily :P
@boringperson: If they all combine, probably. :D This is more so me just pointing out to this guy that a lot of what he is saying is completely baseless. I doubt the Dark Templars will all combine, it always struck me as one of those really big decisions in their lives which is way they all don't do it.
Mind readers does help, but it doesn't make them better skilled in the least. Mind Reading helps you anticipate and counter your opponent, but it doesn't suddenly give you XP in your Sword skill.
@wut: equal tech to whom? IIRC i said equal or above the eldar, so my mind is already made and i do believe in another thread their is proof, but if you want some here some.
Being able to dodge, jump, and kill an ultralisk something the avg eldar could not do.
Being able to cut through zerg with ease and of course kill them with at such speeds i doubt the eldar got anything like this besides some specialized paths, the protoss don't need to be specialized in killing lesser zerg
creating shields that stop hydralisk spikes that could easily hit the eldar and go through them. The next one being bullets.
"In addition to powerful shielding and armor, a bare Zealot can withstand some heavy punishment of its own. After willingly deactivating her shields, Khastiana is shot at point blank range by a marine’s spiker pistol in the chest. Khastiana shrugs off the wound and keeps on fighting. She in fact, does not even die from her wound."
So, about them losing to terrain marines is usually PIS the terrains don't usually stand a chance, and this has been shown in plenty of video cut scenes and such. @tparks would u like to kindly back me up on this as well? He thinks the eldar can win, i disagree.
