Forerunner Ships vs....

Ok, maybe because i´m drunk or in a sort of half-coma because i´m stuffed with all the good and tasty foods,
but, there is one question that bugs me for quite some time now..

How are the Ships of the Forerunner are faring against ships of the other Universes out there....

AFAIK, the Forerunners had the following ships:

Civilian starships: Council ship (Seedling Star) • Builder ship • Mining ship • Audacity • Falco-class space pod • Gargantua-class transport • Keyship (Anodyne Spirit)
Space fighters: Despair-class fighter • Weapon-ship (Z-1800 Phaeton)
Escorts: Escort (Z-330 Forerunner Escort • Dignity-class • Preservation-class)
Warships: Prime dragoon (Sojourner-class)
Battle stations: Aspis platform • Castellan • Mantle's Approach
Unknown type: Babd Catha vessel • Fast attack runner • Fast frigate • Picket cruiser • Planet-breaker (Didact's ship) • Cruiser • Harrier-class vessel • Fortress-class vessel (Deep Reverence)

Note: i´ve taken the information from the Halopedia Website. If you have more information about them, feel free to use them or post them.

Also, i´m not including the various robotic units such as the Prothean Knights or Sentinels or any other types i.e. Guardians.

So, in a direct conflict against a fleet of the Forerunners (for the sake of this conversation lets say 5000 Ships), appear in the following Universes to wreck some sh*t, how will they gonna fare against the local forces.

The Universes in question are:

Star Trek (Discovery, pre-burn)
Star Wars (High Republic)
Star Gate (100 years after the end of the show)
B5 (50 years after the end of the show)
Farscape
Hyperion
DC (Cinematic Version)
MCU (Post-Second Snap)
Star Ocean
Perry Rhodan
Crest of the Stars
Foundation (2021)

Can the locals resist the incursion of the Forerunners ??
Or will the Forerunners gonna stomp them ?

Edit:
Should this Thread belong to another Sub-Forum, please feel free to move it.

Edit 2:
The composition of the 5000 fleet strong fleet, i leave to your imagination.

Forerunner is one of the higher ones in the sci-fi hierarchy so Star trek, Star wars, Star gate, MCU are immediately ruled out.

Even Stargate ??
Ok, that surprises me, really.

So, if the Universes like Star Trek, Star Wars, Stargate, MCU are ruled out, what about the rest ??
 
As for Sword/Banner of the Stars, there is nothing to suggest that they can stop the Forerunner. You replace Sword/Banner of the Stars with Crest of the Stars to make it more recognizable.

What Information do you seek ??
Iirc, there are several Threads on SB.com regarding the feats of Perry Rhodan. There are also some pretty good animations on YT.

Ok, here are some informations....

The exact number of the Solar Fleet is not mentioned, but, by 3460, they could field a fleet of around 88.000 Large Battleships for a expedition.
A smaller Fleet of around 12.000 Ships stayed behind in the Solar System to guard it.

Known Ship Types are:


Up to 2500 meters
Up to 1500 meters
Up to 800 meters
Up to 500 meters
Up to 200 meters
Up to 100 meters
Dinghies ( space fighter , space jet , corvette )
Fleet tender
Others

Weapons Systems used by the Terrans (Humans):

Impulse Cannon (think Plasma Cannon)

Thermal Weapon (think Laser Weapon)

Disintegrator (think Disruptor)

Transform Cannon (can send Nukes through Hyperspace, ignores conventional Energy Shields)

Also various types of Bombs, Torpedos and other explosives. Note: the biggest bombs had up to 2000 Giga Tons of TNT.

Other Tech:

Use quite amount of Robotics of various Types.
Teleporter Tech is known and in use. However, they use a type of Portal Transmitter called Archway Transmitter. They even use Teleporters to move whole Ships or Fleets.
Computer Systems are mostly based on Positronic Systems. However, don´t think of them as a sort of Data. Later they used Syntronic Systems. To give you a comparison, think of a sort of Mind from the Culture, where it´s Hardware is located in Hyperspace where there are far greater Speeds possible.

Here is a Link for all the Tech.....
Note: the Tech used there is totally insane, and, the translation Software used by the Site sucks.

Edit:
You can find all sorts of pretty good (fanmade) Animations on YT, unfortunately, the Video´s are all in German.
