on a side note it might worth saying that previous to the galactic empire being in control over 25,000yrs before the formation of the galactic republic the star wars universe was ruled by the rakatan race who were more technologically advanced than the galactic empire under palpatine. the entire race was force aware mostly darkside force users as well. literally they owned the entire galaxy, at this time in the star wars universe the rakatans would have wiped out the reapers more surely then the galactic empire would, they had technology that could create ships from a star forge in fleet size in days, droid armys from a foundry that would number in the millions and there was a 3rd forge but i don't know what it did. soooo on the off chance that the reapers did attempt to invade the star wars universe they had damn sure better pick the galactic empires time frame or they would have been killed off faster in the distant past than in the near past. its a distinct likelyhood that the rakatans created the corellian system.

tbh am not sure indoctrination would work with something the size of the empire... its just too big, mass effects galaxy has only a fraction of its planets inhabited, the star wars galaxy has thousands of worlds inhabited, on a power lvl the reapers have shown they can destory evolution, the star wars universe at some point had the ability to create a star system namely the corellian system i believe thats what centerpoint station was created for. and as for troops ... the empire could if needed clone thousands of them as and when required and they dont even need to be trained there training is given to them when there in there spiratii clone cylinders, they come out fully trained and ready to go to war.

ok i'll give the reapers this... on the ground would prolly do better against the empire than they would in space but not overly so... destroyer reapers are tough but an AT AT at max firepower would prolly hull it in a single shot then you have AT ST's which are large enough to stomp most reaper ground troops with there firepower, then you can argue that the empire has the dark troopers as well which arent so much man as machine and would likely wipe out large numbers of reaper troops individually ... then you have possibly the ultimate combatant ... Vader

as for the reapers reverse engineering empire tech ... not sure it would or could work there tech works of of mass effect cores they would have to remove these for a massive fusion core that would more then likely require them to remove there organic parts which would then make them just machines with no intelligence... also not all reapers are sentient most of them are controlled by sentient reapers although its difficult to tell which are and which arent although all harbinger/soveriegn class reapers are sentient but there not alot bigger than an imperial class star destroyer.

of recent i have discovered that the effective range of a star destroyer is alot more than 10kilometers.... another problem the repaers would have is breaching a planets shield that any planet the empire controls has ... these planetary shields can absorb orbital bombardment by a fleet of start destroyers numbering over 8 ISD's they cannot be bypassed by flying through them either to land on a planet protected at any point by a shield you have to land beyond its influence a planet like coruscant has a shield that covers the entire planet and so cannot be circumvented in any way and heavily populated planets all had this type of shield. in the end it would all boil down to numbers and firepower...

The reapers number at most 20,000 its probably alot less somewhere closer to 12,000 as they can develop only 1 sentient reaper during a cycle and a cycle is once every 50,000yrs although that was only after they created the mass relays prior to that i would hazard that a cycle was once every 100,000yrs or so they created the mass relays to reduce the time between cycles.

The empire at its height had somewhere between 25 and 37 thousand ISD's, and atleast 15 SSD's of the executor class and other types of star destroyers at its disposal, each of these ships would be capable of destroying entire fleets of reapers before a reaper could get within range of a star destroyer to do any damage what-so-ever, also the empire stopped production on the ISD to make way for the Type II ISD which had better armour, more weapons and was slightly larger then type 1 the real size comes from the SSD superstar destroyer or star dreadnaught which no matter which sorce you read from is a ship of gigantic proportions with an insane amount of firepower.

both sides like to use numbers and sheer size to overwhelm there enemies but trying to overwhelm an enemy the size of the galactic empire when your outnumbered to begin with just wont work, 12.000 vs anything up to 37,000 isnt a plan thats going to win, even if the reapers started out in the rim worlds the emperor would certainly sense the reapers killing poorly protected worlds off and most likely any imperial garrisons that were placed on outter rim worlds militarily speaking the reapers are out classed, out numbered and out gunned also like i have stated before interdictor cruisers would play a role in the reapers utter destruction.

godzilla would not use his atomic breath would take a single bite out of mr staypuft an decide i'm keeping you around for a while, i just got a sweet tooth lolz

heh Vader easily wins... hell mara jade once said that "Vader would have found Exar Kun quient!" which to me would suggest vader would own kun so much that kun wouldnt stand a chance

the thing you have to remember with any of this is the power that these ppl have within the force, mace windu would likely defeat most of the other team on his own as the further towards a new hope you get the stronger in the force the jedi become, same with a sith but as 1 team lived in 3000yrs in the past there power and connection to the force is lower than that of mace and co so to put them into a fight is only going to see 1 side win an thats the side with the most powerful ppl on it, mace may not have been as powerful as yoda but he would have been alot more powerful than setele shan even though she was a grandmaster of the jedi order in her day, but in mace's day he was somewhere between the 3rd or 4th most powerful person in the galaxy

tbh this would be the likely outcome... vader lines up with tenebrous then kills him and then goes on to own kit fisto and plo koon on his own

winner is luke, his connection to the force and power is vastly superior to malgus's who wouldnt be strong enough to prevent himself from being ownd.

after a long hard fight they fight eachother to a standstill and in the end decide to go an make baby sith together :P lol

this in my opinion is a win for the empire...

a single imperial class star destroyer is almost the same size as the largest of the reapers (harbinger/soverign). a super class star destroyer dwarfs a reaper of any class. a single reaper can be destroyed by 4 ME ships which fire 38 KILOTONS of firepower each, a single imperial class star destroyer fires heavy turbo laser batteries of which it has 250 per ship each of which fires in the GIGATONS of damage PER SHOT!! also a star destroyers batteries have an effective range of over 10kilometers, massively increased if theres a command ship like the super star destroyer EXECUTOR, or even bigger the Eclipse class star dreadnaught which is about 40kilometers long and made from quantum armour, has a planet cracking superlaser within its arsenal and 1000 heavy turbolaser batteries, could probably ram a reaper and not even realise it had done it.

now for the coup de grais .... a reaper requires it to be, at its most effectiveness in a 0 GEE environment, this means that it can put all its mass effect cores into its shielding, The empire would deploy interdictor cruisers which would create a planetary stength gravity well that would require every reaper to engage in battle with the empires star destroyers to pull power from its mass effect cores to reduces its mass to manuver and hence draw power from its shields making them even easier to breach, the star destoryers would then clean up rather efficiently, as for a land battle .... the empire probably would not put time and effort into such a thing and more then likely bombard the planet back into the stone age or with the deathstar reduce the planet to debris.
