I don't know what the Death Squadron is but with Vader it would probably depend on whether he can access the force or not. Also do you mean literally Bab 5 station or somewhere in that universe.
I suppose if he did have force capacity and the squadron and linked up with the shadows would be the worst option.

Ouch! Given the size of the imperial star destroyers that is a huge force compared to what is available in the early parts of Bab 5. For most of the series there are no defensive warships and even the bulk of the white star fleet are likely to have problems if they were concentrated at the station at the time. This assumes Vader's approach is violent but that may not be the case.

Well, the denizens of the Babylon 5 universe might consider themselves lucky if they knew that this Death Squadron’s Legends counterpart could have dozens of capital ships at once. ...Not terribly reassuring, I know. |

What would be a good time to put the Death Squadron into the Babylon 5verse, before ore during the Second Shadow War . |

I’m afraid I wouldn’t know since I’m unfamiliar with Babylon 5 to begin with and have only come across some barren, context-lacking Wikipedia articles about those two conflicts. My best guess at the moment is maybe sending Death Squadron to the first, perhaps as a replacement for Babylon 4? And even then, that may be an uninformed answer on my part. Sorry, lordroel. |

I'm not sure how the DS would stand up against the full strength of either the Shadows or the First ones who opposed them.
If its after the 2nd war then the elder races have gone so their not an issue but how strong the alliance Babylon 5 has built up in comparison would be I don't know.

No problem Zyobot , then what about the Death Squadron made up of one Executor-class Star Dreadnought (flagship with Darth Vader onboard), five Imperial-class Star Destroyers and 3 Imperial II-class Star Destroyers are ISOTed a remote planet in the Star Trek verse, lets say at the time of the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. |

Good question. If Vader and the Imperials are pragmatic, then they'll watch, wait, and gather intelligence about this new galaxy that they've been mysteriously sent to (one guess as to which mischievous, Picard-pestering omnipotent did so). Not to mention look for places to harvest natural resources and set up proper production facilities in order to pump out more hardware and supplies. Though each setting has its own unique technology--namely teleportation in Trek and commonplace AI in Wars--I can't say how each's military capabilities stack up against one another's. If we go by the standards of the (overtly lopsided-looking) Conquest crossover fanfic, then Imperial ships would tear apart their Milky Way opposition. |

If we go by the standards of the (overtly lopsided-looking) Conquest crossover fanfic, then Imperial ships would tear apart their Milky Way opposition. Well did some counting using the Wookieepadia articles of the ships in the Death Squadron and not counting the crew of those ships, the 5 Imperial-class Star Destroyers and 3 Imperial II-class Star Destroyers are: TIE/ln space superiority starfighters (576). Lambda-class T-4a shuttles (64). AT-AT walkers (240). AT-ST or AT-DP walkers (160). Imperial Troop Transports (120). Stormtroopers (77,600). The Executor-class Star Dreadnought is a class of its own bringing a complement of: TIE Series starfighters (144) (can number in the thousands if fully loaded). AT-ATs (30). AT-STs (40). Prefabricated garrison bases (2), this will be verry imprtant for Darth Vader as it allows him to secure a planet and begin his motioning of the Star Trek verse. Various other assault and support craft (total of 200). Stormtroopers (33,800). |

About those Imperial assets, they seem to be coming from one continuity or another, the question being whether we're ISOTing Canon or Legends Death Squadron to the Trek universe? Or, is it whatever combination of the two serves our purposes best? |

Do they come from Canon or Legends, if I may ask? |
