The senshi might not fight worth spit, but they ARE

 called her a "magical howitzer." :)

 Another point you sometimes see is that most of the
 bad guys the senshi fight absord the life-force from
 people. That renders many of Ranma's attacks useless.
 No ki blasts for certain.

Yeah, on a purely martial arts level, Venus and Jupiter between them
are at least Ryouga's equal and could give Ranma a run for his money
without breaking a sweat.

He'd beat them eventually, but it would be close.

I'm not trying to open a debate on who would beat who -- though, if
it came to that, I suspect that simple teamwork from the senshi
(something not prevalent in the Ranma canon) might have something of
an impact.

Rather, I think (or at least I hope) that my point is that a crossover
writer ought to show a decent respect for *both* canon.

Nor I, and I agree wholeheartedly. You must respect Canon. I'm just  
considering the differences between the two.
