The New Republic’s doctrine of having local governments and PDFs handle most issues and only calling in the Five Fleets when things got hot really made Super Ships work. They’re poor defense ships and patrol ships, simply because they can really only be in one place at a time. By having smaller ships for the smaller government dealing with most of those smaller issues allow Super Ships to shine where they were meant to - straight brawls to the death. A change from “Co-Operation with the Fed” vs “Oppression from the Fed” altered how they use a Super weapon. Neat!

This was an old Republic Doctrine. Although they lacked Super Ships. And PDFs usually does most of the fighting anyway, in nearly all factions. Even during the Clone Wars. The Rebels and the Eternal Empire being few exceptions. I’m sure there were others. The Empire conscripted a lot of the Republic’s PDFs into the army and navy. As did most Sith Empires.

The ironic thing is that all of the new republic's own homegrown superships all came about, due to their tradition starfighter centric war doctrine being challenge and shown to be lacking, when they were constantly attacked and having to combat massive imperial superships from the reborn empire campaigns right through to Daala and the black fleet crisis and beyond to the latter imperial campaigns. Leading to them creating the Viscount and Mediator classes in greater numbers than we know and others during the late new republic and GFFA era's.

Can agree on the high strangeness of these supposed supervessels not being of the battlecarrier kind. The NR/GFFA would have nicely benefitted with a Venator successor. Anyhow, would love to think that non-Star Wars vessels like the Orion-class destroyer from the FreeSpace duology would nicely fit in this category (carrier complements plus beam cannons are a treat from it), albeit in a bigger scale.

I don't know if it's ever explicitly stated for sure, but we know that in the final series of battles from Mon Cal through to Courscant basically saw the GA and Vong bring almost everything still flying onto the board. The final battle of the war has characters in universe remarking that basically every ship class of the previous 40 years was present to some extent. And given that it was a battle that spanned several solar systems, that seems believable.
@CoreysDatapad Жыл бұрын
I may be mistaken (or making incorrect assumptions) on which ended up actually going where, I'll have to take more notes next time I read the full book. But Harbinger, Viscount and Guardian seem to have been part of the same group consistently, with Harbinger being noted as present at Corulag after Mon Cal. So they may have split off there, but the implication seemed to me to be that they were sent along with the other ones to Coruscant, albeit likely by the other routes Traest mentions. I definitely should just have said the trio was at Mon Cal though.
