And the one where he goes to dragon ball Z and takes over planet Vegeta got me wondering... How strong compared to a baseline normal space marine would a normal baseline Saiyan soldier be? What about a lieutenant like Radditz?And would the Emprah accept Saiyans as human mutants the way he does Ogryns, or not? Would he absorb them or wipe them out?
>>96901734Baseline Saiyans would be solo conquering worlds. They would not be accepted, as they as as human as Eldar are. He would have zero chance wiping them out, power scaling in DBZ is over the top. No matter what slop sources would say. TEH EMPRAH is trash-tier, given that Vegeta himself can solo chapters and one-shot Exterminatus worlds by flexing and screaming.
>>96901769 Do baseline space monkeys really have planet busting power, I was under the impression that they had to train for quite a while or be naturally gifted to get to that point, in the vein of any of the named characters. And I'm not talking about super saiyans or anything, just the normal run of the mill space monkey soldier at the lowest basic tier that would have been working for friza at whatever point
>>96901969Goku was considered trash by Raditz during their initial fight and was significantly stronger than a man who could destroy a moon - they could also grow fighters from seeds who were above that level. DBZ powerscaling is completely retarded because Toriyama was going off vibes.
>>96901969>>96901769Saiyans were prized because like 5-6 of the grunts like Goku's Dad could crush an entire world in a couple of weeks. Their only real weakness is needing to breath atmosphere, something a race like Freeza's wouldn't need.Also remember saiyans were conquering worlds not destroying them outright even if they could.
>>96901979Radditz was considered trash by nappa/vegeta too. And Vegeta was considered powerful but not even in Freeza's inner circle when he fought goku and it's shown he could destroy the planet whenever he wanted.
Remember, Goku at 12 gets shot in the head by Bulma and walks it off. Baseline saiyans are basically bullet-proof and would probably be able to shrug off most las weapon shots as if they were cigarette burns. Trained saiyans would probably be able to take bolter rounds to the face with little issue. A space marine would probably be able to kill some in melee with a chainsword or powerfist though, because vibes.
>>96901969>Do baseline space monkeys really have planet busting powerFucking Piccolo blew up the Moon, let alone saiyans.
>>96901734Nids and orks could do it
>>96902382Calm down, liberal arts major. We are talking about real power, not the "power of imagination".
>>96902425>We are talking about real power, not the "power of imagination".Actually, we're talking about dragon ball, so we are talking about the power of imagination.
>>96901969Vegeta and nappa were casually blowing up planets at base power, when they were still just considered cannon fodder to frieza. Goku, roshi, and piccolo could destroy the moon by the end of dragon ball, and were considered weak shit by friezas mooks. By the cell saga characters had to regularly aim basic attacks away from the surface of the earth because of the risk of destroying it by accident. Buu saga goku nearly destroyed the planet simply from the excess energy that he gave off while powering up to what isn't even his final form.
>>96901734>I have been listening to rot and now my brain is rotting>I have to make this everyone elses problem.Please and thank you just kill yourself post-haste. Slop-spamming fucking faggot.
>>96901734>40k able to handle Dragon Balllmaokek
>>96901979Also every Saiyan with a tail can go into a great ape form with a canonical ten times power magnifier. DBZ power scaling is truly absurd.
>>96901734slop indeed. Put simply, The Emperor would be no diffed by Raditz. Raditz can just punch the Emperor's head off before he even uses his first psychic power, such is the speed difference between them. He would also find Saiyans to be nothing but xenos scum (because they are) and work to eradicate them with a superbomb of some kind, no doubt. Now, a much more interesting scenario is like this: Emperor might team up with Dr. Gero and then you'd see some real fireworks. Imagine an Emperor juiced up by Gero's wetware, the same stuff he put in 17 and 18. Now we're talking. If 17 (an ordinary boy) with six years of training can reach SS Blue level, the Emperor with the same enhancements and an equal amount of training time would probably be
>>96902662/threadOP is a faggot and should kill it's self.
>>96902286Not much of a flex, roshi also blew up the moon
Everyone here is so stupid. The emperor could just mind rape the Saiyans. The monkeys no defense against certain magic powers.
>>96908377General blue had psychic powers and they weren't very effective against Goku or tao.
>>96908377Dragonball main characters ignore faggy magic casters by just powering up more.
>>96908650The potency of magic is really inconsistent in Dragon Ball. Evil Containment Wave works on gods, but being strong enough lets you ignore time skipping powers.
>>96903507If you want to power scale the Emperor, you should do it by comparing the C'tan to the Saiyans. After all, he did fight the Void Dragon.
>>96908690Magic lets you cheat above your power level but is still dependent upon it. It's why they needed Super Saiyan 2 Trunks to use the Containment Wave on Zamasu. It's why Tien was the only other person capable of trying it on King Piccolo after Roshi failed.Emperor would be a decent DB era villain, but once Raditz shows up he is totally outclassed in every way.
>>96908728Some of this still seems dependent on the magic in question. When Buu turns Vegito into candy, Vegito can't just hit the undo button, even if he maintains control and power over himself. But Buu is also made of so much magic that it forcibly dissolved the fusion after he swallowed him.
There is literally nothing more cringe on earth than people who compare different media franchises to DBZ
>>96901969Nappa nuked an entire city and vaporized its citizens just by lifting two fingers, DBZ powerlevel is obscene compared to 40k
>>96908377Saiyans think faster than light and have superhuman willpower. The Emperor can think far faster than an ordinary human, but to Saiyans who fight at FTL speeds, his psychic attacks would seem slow as molasses. Goku, also, already has potent telepathic powers that allow him to read minds and scan memories of people around him. He has also fought off telepathic attacks with ease and that was as a child.
>>96909610Goku is also a massive outlier known as a "shonen protagonist" who shouldn't be taken into account for regards to what the "average" saiyan can do.
This entire thread is devolving into dumbass DBZ fanbys with no understanding of 40K arguing with dumbass 40K fanboys who have no understanding of DBZ.It make it easy for people to understand: The warhammer emperor is about on par with Gods of Destruction in DBZ. Unlike GoDs in DBZ, the emperor has a psychic based powerset rather than Ki-Based. So think Bobiti's mind control, but without the option to just overpower it like vegeta does.On the other hand, the average saiyan is no-diffing anything short of a demon prince or primarch.On a meta-level: 40K is an grimdark comedy setting. This means goku's usual "I overpower the over-hyped enemy for comedic effect" thing doesn't work against 40k characters, since they already kill people like that on a regular basis.
