If Captain Piccard faced off in battle against Captian Kirk, with each captain in command of their respective starships, who would win and why? (a few brief reasons will suffice for the "why" part of the question) Thank You. |

Picard keeps his head. Kirk is too emotional and impetuous. If I had to choose which crew to join I'd go with Picard. |

Perhaps the strongest advantage on Picard's side is that his Galaxy Class starhip has eighty years' worth of technical advances absent from Kirk's ship, plus an equal number of decades' worth of collective military tactics studied by Picard in his academic career. On the other hand, Picard is a company man, while Kirk is more than able to break the rules for the greater good. This, plus the fact that he has both Spock and Scotty at his disposal, means that he & his entourage out-talent anything passing for Starfleet material on Picard's ship. I'd say that they are approximately evenly matched in resources, and that the outcome of such a battle will be determined mainly by unexpected fortunes, and not primarily by the skills of the captains themselves. |

I think picard would win most times so long as he does not involve the Ships's Shrink (i.e. Marina Sirtis) DPRK007 |

Picard has a more advanced ship since he came along a couple centuries after Kirk. So he would win. |

I should think the final solution rather simple :) Picard would start off with "Let's talk about this, and figure out a rational solution that gives both parties exactly what they need in an emotionally satisfying manner...." And Kirk would shoot him. :) |

Kirk would win both the battle AND the adoring affections of Picard's shrink. |
