The range of phasers and turbolasers is actually not as great as some think. There's notations that turbolasers could fire out to several million km at their max range, so it depends entirely on the source you go by.
That and apparently hyperspace is faster than warp drive. Faster than transwarp, since the GFFA and the Milky Way galaxies are the same, but you can get around the Star Wars galaxy within a few weeks.
Honestly one could go forever with the whole 'trek vs wars' debate, but I care less. Both have their strong points and their weak points.
And they're both a lot of fun.
