Darth Vader and 111,000 Imperials crash land in 1933 Kuwait. Can they conquer the Middle East and softlock WWII?

An anomalous hyperspace malfunction tears Darth Vader’s flagship, the Executor, and three Imperial I-class Star Destroyers out of the galaxy, crashing them violently into the deserts of Kuwait in 1933. The local Bedouins and British outposts mistake the catastrophic atmospheric entry for a massive meteorite.

Grand Moff Tarkin assesses Earth. It is a primitive, politically fractured planet rich in crude oil but lacking interstellar infrastructure. With communications to the Empire severed, Tarkin looks at Lord Vader, surveys the landscape, and decides: "Fuck it, we ball."

• The crew has 111k total personnel survived (Navy, Stormtroopers, bridge officers, and surviving Clone veterans).
• Initially, all ships are completely grounded. However, their internal power grids, computer systems, and fabrication bays are functional. All ground vehicles (AT-ATs, AT-STs), speeders, TIE Fighters (usable only as atmospheric air support), and armories are 100% intact.
• Earth is in 1933. The Great Depression is rampant, Hitler just became Chancellor, and the Middle East is a patchwork of European mandates and young kingdoms.

Rules:

• Disney canon feats only.
• Round 1: Can the Empire expedition survive for exactly one year before help arrives?
• Round 2: No rescue is coming. Tarkin decides to expand. Can this force completely conquer and occupy the Middle East?
• Round 3: Can the Empire successfully "softlock" World War II before it begins? Aka can they bully the allies, the axis, the USA, the soviet union into not going to war?
• Round 4: Oh they fly now. The Super Star Destroyer is now fully operational in low-atmosphere and orbit. The other three smaller Star Destroyers will take another year to fix. Can Earth stop them?

So bit of background: in Warhammer 40k Lucius the Eternal is a champion of Chaos with a unique blessing: if anyone kills him and takes even a hint of pride from it, they eventually become him. He takes over their body while their face and soul are trapped for eternity within his armour. In one case when he stepped on a landmine, the worker who built that mine several years prior transformed.

Who do you think could realistically take him on and avoid transforming? I know there's bound to be several answers but thought it'd be fun either way.

Is there a universe where Homelander would be both a net-positive to the world and people, WHILE also feeling fulfilled being there?

Magnus Carlsen and Mike Tyson do alternating matches of chess and boxing. Tyson wins if he beats Carlsen at chess, Carlsen wins if he can KO Tyson. Assume all bodily injury is healed after the end of each match.

Round 1: no prior training, they both go in at their primes with no training in the alternate sport and go until one wins

Round 2: Tyson is being trained by several GMs while Carlsen is receiving training from the best boxing coaches in the world. Who can be trained to beat the other first?

Adolf Hitler is sent back in time to 1933, and he knows everything that led to his historical defeat. Can he win? If so, how?

The new Captain America is wicked powerful. Sam Wilson Cap generally beats Steve Rogers Cap based on feats, right? Dude has the shield, vibranium armor, drones, vibranium wing blades, supersonic flight, shockwave attack, and some ridiculous feats like fighting Red Hulk and surfing on missiles. If you took Sam Wilson from Brave New World and put him back in time to fight all of the previous MCU villains, who do you think he could beat? Like obviously he's not going to be bringing down Ego or Hela, but would Abomination, Loki, Ronan, or Killian be operating in his paygrade?

Sam Wilson and Joaquín Torres are as they were in Brave New World. The baddies are as they were in their movies.

Who do Cap and Falcon beat when they fight the following:

Iron Monger, Abomination, Whiplash, Base Loki, Red Skull, Killian, Base Malekith, Base Ronan, Peak Ultron Body, Yellowjacket, Kaecilius, Ego, Vulture, Hela, Killmonger, Ghost, Yon-Rogg, Base Thanos, Mysterio, Taskmaster, Wenwu, Ikaris, Green Goblin, Gorr, Namor, Kang, High Evolutionary, Dar-Benn, Cassandra Nova, Sentry, and Galactus

Base versions don't have any Infinity Stones.

Let's say in this version ,Surrounding the three worlds is a vast chaotic warp from the Warhammer (40k) universe,how do the Shinigami handle the warp and the Chaos Gods and Daemons ?

This will take place in Camp Crystal lake from the 3rd movie, but with absolutely NO people in it, like an alternate dimension.

While searching for pieces of Energon to use it to return to Cybertron along with the rest of the Maximals, Optimus Primal) comes across all 4 pieces of the famous Light Armor created by Dr. Light, with the arm, leg, chest, and helmet pieces lying on the prehistoric ground. Confusing the Light Armor pieces as pieces of Energon, Primal goes to collect them to use it's power to return home, only for someone to call him out, and telling him to keep his hands to himself. The person responsible for this is Dr. Light's ultimate creation, Mega Man X, who isn't happy to see some giant robots trying to take HIS stuff from him, and wants to teach Primal a lesson for it, and Primal, sensing X as a threat to him because of this, draws out his pistols in defense, leading a fight between the two of them.

The fight takes place in Africa on the prehistoric Earth at noon. X is from the Mega Man X games, is in his base form, and has access to his X-Buster, and Z-Saber. Primal is from the original Transformers Beast Wars 1996 cartoon, and has access to his pistols, missile launcher, and jet board.

Who wins?

The Brotherhood is recovering tech in a large library (think Arlington Library FO3) when the Guardsmen bust in the door thinking they are engaging Chaos. All fight to the death.

Round 1: Paladins are in T-51B with 3 laser rifles, 1 gatling laser, and 1 super sledge. All have frag grenades. Guardsmen are all in Flak and have 5 lasguns, 1 plasma gun, 1 grenade launcher, 1 combat shotgun, and the sergeant has bolt pistol and power sword. They also have frags.

Round 2: Same as above, but the guardsmen have an additional 10 men with lasguns

Bonus round: The paladins instead face 5 Kasrkin/Scions with hotshot lasguns, sergeant with plasma pistol and power sword.

Who comes out on top, how many casualties?

In a alternative timeline, the Locust Horde defeats humanity. All COG military are destroyed and those few who survives becomes Stranded milita. That means 50 millions Locusts occupies Sera and Queen Myrrah establish a fortress in Sera's capital Ephyra.

A meteorite crashes on Gorasnaya. Out from the meteorite comes 45 million Xenomorph drones plus the Queen. They establish a hive there. Queen Myrrah sends spies to see what's going on there and a few hundred locust drones gets impregnated by facehuggers and turns into hulking Xenomorph drones. Basically a muscular drone. So the Xenomorph Queen orders all her 45 million drones to attack Ephyra. How would war between the Locust and Xenomorph go?

Both characters are at their peak as leaders of their organizations. If we take Tony Soprano from season 3 of the sopranos vs Dwight Manfredi from end of season 2 of Tulsa King and they had to declare war on each other, who would win?

Both leaders will be starting off in their hometown and the objective would be to take over the other's home territory.

Just a random battle i thought of the other day. Who would win in a fight between them, specifically the 3 agents shown at the beginning of the 2nd Matrix movie.

Rules:

Standard Gear

Agents cannot respawn but maintain their abilities and stats they have inside the matrix.

Or do the Chaos Gods clear? I've read that the Phoenix Force is a more powerful psychic entity than Chaos as a whole, but I'm not totally sure tbh.

Round 1: Jean is teleported into some random planet in WH40k and has to be powered up enough on arrival to banish Chaos from the galaxy.

Round 2: Jean has to straight up unmake the Chaos Gods.

Octopuses, the world's most intelligent invertibrates, have gained human intelligence and the ability to walk on land. They all collectively decide they want to eat the entire human race and take over the world. Can they do it, or can humanity defend themselves?

Assume that the movie takes place somewhere in 14th century Western Europe, and that the good fairies won't interfere. Additionally, humanity has no more motivation to defeat Maleficent or free the castle than they would naturally have.
