personally, i think starfleet can kick the romulans ass any day
 

moved to star trek (i think )

i don't know if starfleet can do that. they fought the dominion war, are weakened, the rommies who where allies surely used the tal shiar to spy during that alliance at the feds just to see what they have . and i guess that with all those spies they could make quicte some havoc and suprize attacks if  coordinated.

especially with there intelligence networks. which the starfleet basically doesn't have

btw does anyone like my pictures?

well i don't think  section 31 has as near influence as the tal shiar. 31 is only a small arm talshiar is a nig office

well if section 31 was that powerfull, then starfleet whould have had more intell about teh romulans and the rommies wouldn't have been a threat at all
 

well in the cold war they both nullified eachothers intelligence out. so there wasn't a big differnce in strength.

besides, it has always been stated that the talshiar is the strongest intelligence networks of quadrant so i guess they should be good at it otherwise they wouldn't be so (in)famous.

i don't think you following me.

starfleet has a hard time getting info about rommies. so why is it that section 31 get the info out of it then? because the tal shiaris better in keeping secrets

and that is the advanatge, if you don't know where an enemy is going to strike, you are dooomed

fleetops junkie was right, sec 31 has more intel about the romulans than you think
