Ok you guys seem to be forgeting something if you would brin the 2 universes together the imperium would actualy have a big disadvantage because for them it would be just one more foe to fight ,they would still have to deal with chaos incursions, xenos atacks etc so i think it would go on like it had with the tau empire (only the tau survived because of the nids), so yeah i guess the imperium would lunch a crusade against it (but gray knits forget it ,its not their job to deal with non chaotic threats, deathwatch marines certaily) and i also agree that a jedi would be like a farseer or a seer council warlock more likely and would be able to defeat say like 10 marines (btw lightsaber completly ignores armor while power weapons are more like a pseudo ignore) but a librarian would be more than a match for a jedi + they are comparativley tthe same in number ( each chapter has like 20 librarians <not to mentions chaplains captains and champions who would also be a match), assasins would also be employed  and so the jedi while still beeing a hinderance would be dealth with,

Next we have the ships, The imperium would win in most if not all naval fights because of their sheer firepower ,but SW ships also have a significant advantage, they are faster and hyperspace (lets asume its not the warp) is a faster way to travel so the imperium would have to divide it's available navy ships in 2 one to go on and purge the heretics and xenos and the other to stay behind and defend key strategic planets and locations ,because it would be pointless to chase the much faster SW ships  and so i still think that the imperium would own SW but it would most likely be a bittersweet victory because they could have used those forces to recapture or defend other worlds within the imperium ( Ofc that won't stop the imperium from comiting genocide against  the republic :)   )
