If, for once, the Goa'uld helped the other people, then it'd be a pretty much unstoppable army. Asgard+Ancient Technology used by Goa'uld could be very powerful, as Goa'uld pretty much find exploits, so to speak, in everything. They could simply do what the Replicators did and make time dilation fields so they could progress faster. Or, as I think would happen, they would use specially controlled time dilation fields to make parts of the ship, like weaponry, function faster, or even the entire ship. Imagine fighting a ship with technology, even less than yours, that the people on it, and most everything on it, could function at a million times the speed you could. The people could simply fly around you for maybe a year their time(a second or so your time), shooting their weapons(weaponry and energy production would be further accelerated so they'd be able to shoot as fast as you needed) the entire time. Even if, in real time, the weapons couldn't get past your shields, I think a year's worth, or two, or three, or however many the enemy wants, of weaponfire delivered in a second could cause serious harm. Also, can you imagine what could be done with time dilation, supply ships, and Horizon missile deployment systems? Or just plain Naquadriah(Or Naquadah)-enhanced nukes? They'd be able to fire hundreds in what you perceive as a second. Hundreds of missiles, each with more than a 10-gigaton yield, fired in a second. Even if your shields could normally withstand a few mega-nukes, this is hundreds. And the supply ships could keep them coming as fast as is needed for as long as is needed, as you can have extra-extra time dilation on the mine-and-factory planets, as well as on the supply ships. And, suppose they didn't use time dilation to go super fast relative to you. Even at 4 times, that would be a huge advantage. 4 times the reaction rate. Imagine starfighters with that. F-302s or Gliders going at 4 times normal speed, with pilots reacting 4 times faster. Pretty much undefeatable. Now let's throw in the Pegasus galaxy's stuff. Asurans. Game. Asurans can create ZPMs, making power generation problems pretty much over. Wraith's only problem really is power generation. Now throw in time dilation and a few ZPM factories to the Wraiths... So, as you said, Stargate would win.

Yeah, most stargate tech would be a game over for most crossovers.

Star Wars has a serious infliction where most fanboys overhype Star Wars' tech to the point that its unbeatable, citing that ships like Star Destroyer secondary weapons like turrets can dish out 2 gigaton lasers..which is absolute bullcrap. With the exception of the Death Star, nothing else can dish more than multi-megaton range weapons in the Star Wars universe.

Star Trek fans have a problem of thinking that pretty, sleek looking ships = indestructible. Contrary to popular belief, Star Trek shields are actually a misnomer. Those "shields" are nothing more than static forcefields that surround starfleet ships, which while a good defense against weapons, tend to go offline after 30 seconds from sustained enemy fire. In other words, Star Trek shields are not very strong.

Star Wars is even worse! What you call defense shields in Sci-fi shows, they call "Deflector shields" in star wars. As the name implies, deflector shields will "deflect" enemy fire which doesn't last very long. Those types of shields tend to get drained and go offline under 10 seconds of enemy fire making them the worst type of shields in the history of Sci-fi genre.

Stargate shields like Atlantis' shields, are fundamentally different from Star Trek or Star Wars. For starters, as long as you pump enough power into the shields, they can remain indefinitely even despite enemy firing on the shields. Atlantis shields being powered by 3 zpm's would make them the most powerful shields in existence....they can essentially remain at 100% full strength for hundreds of years while being constantly under bombartment of thousands of wraith cruisers.

Just an idea of the difference of technological level in each universe so to speak.
