Slylandro Probe vs the SW Galaxy
A Slylandro probe is sent into the SW galaxy, and appears in a lightly patrolled sector of the Empire, with some asteroids. This probe is programmed to seek out materials and replicate itself above all else, like the one in SC2. Can the Empire kill the probe and its offspring before they replicate themselves into a horde numbering millions (a few months basically) and overrun the Empire (and everything else in the SW galaxy)? I say the probes win

No problem, they just added CAMs and Gridfire and effectors and cranked up the replication priority
