Judging by the battered state of the Chimaera, if Thrawn had any other ISDs with him they've all been stripped for parts by now. The name "Chimaera" might be extremely appropriate, it could be made of bits and pieces cannibalized from several different ships (perhaps even including salvaged alien tech and witchcraft?).

I figured as much. Why would he have 3 barely functioning ISDs? He'd obviously cannibalize the worst of them and feed it to the most capable/his own if he's that prideful (he probabaly is). I mean just looking at the Chimera, I doubt there's another ISD hiding somewhere else. Even if that one is similarly battered (no working primary engines too), they'd have stripped even the walls into patchwork for the Chimera. There were several structures that remain in a destroyed state, implying that the gold wasn't enough/too prohibitive aside from just securing major hull breaches.

I can say with certainty based on that first scene that the Chimera's pipe organ still works quite well. Slightly more seriously, my guess would be that the purgil grabbed all of Thrawn's ships, but deposited the ones other than Chimera around the regular galaxy, probably with significant damage. That's why it was said the ships "vanished" rather than "were destroyed," and how Paelleon could be active in the main galaxy. Most of the ships did not end up in Peridea, because Ezra was just trying to get them away from Lothal and take Thrawn out of commission while hurting as few people as possible.

While they could have the parts to repair the Chimera by cannibalizing other ships brought to Perdia, would they have the facilities?

Perdia doesn't look to have any orbital shipyards and from what I understand ISDs can't actually land on planets.

If I were Thrawn, I would have kept a squadron on the Chimaera, probably from the first production batch and well before the factory was put out of action in Rebels. I would also take advantage of the Chimaera's damage and subsequent unorthodox repairs to retrofit some of the hull breaches as hidden auxiliary hangars, then pull a reverse Marg Sabl maneuver to visibly deploy the normal TIEs from the main hangar while obscuring the deployment of Defenders from the hidden hangars, a capability even experienced rebel admirals would not expect from an ISD. In short, I'll be mildly disappointed if we don't see any Defenders by the finale. Only mildly, though.

I'm pleased that Dave Filoni chose to depict the Chimaera as heavily damaged from the Purgil attack ~10 years earlier and the ship was partially repaired with whatever resources could be scrounged from Peridea. It demonstrates that Filoni CARES about those types of details and will push for them, in stark contrast to Jar-Jar Abrams, who didn't give a sh!t and reused the ISD-1 Star Destroyer CG model from Rogue One and upscaled it for TRoS to save money. Filoni learned the importance of a "lived-in universe" from his mentor George Lucas, whereas Jar-Jar Abrams only cares about superficial BS like lens flares and mystery boxes. I don't expect to see more of Thawn's ISDs in the Peridea galaxy; Thrawn seemed grimly forthright that his manpower and resources were diminished, so I don't think he's hiding a larger fleet. Even if more of the Seventh Fleet was taken to the Peridea galaxy by the Purgil, Thrawn probably cannibalized them for parts to repair the Chimaera. I believe Filoni is depicting Thrawn as the underdog so that he can demonstrate his tactical brilliance in a battle against the New Republic. My prediction is that Thrawn will return to Seatos and encounter the 3 NR cruisers still there. Thrawn will defeat the NR ships with a combination of his brilliant tactics and Nightsister magic. Perhaps Thrawn will shoot some of those mystery caskets at the NR ships and either undead Nightsisters or Stormtroopers will reanimate from them and commandeer the NR cruisers, in an homage to the stolen Mole Miners in Heir to the Empire. Ahsoka, Hera, and Sabine will escape the battle and warn the New Republic of Thrawn's return. Ideally, the New Republic will send its Home One fleet to confront Thrawn at Seatos, but Thrawn will have broadcast a message to the Imperial Remnant and the Imperial Fleet will start appearing out of hyperspace and completely surround the NR Home One fleet, and the season will end on a crazy cliffhanger. That's my hope anyway!

I believe that some of the other star destroyers may have survived, however they might have been gutted for parts and had their crews and resources consolidated on the Chimera to ensure its combat effectiveness and lengthen its survivability. The Star Destroyers logistical tail might be long, but it could be shortened for a time by utilizing the resources from several of them to keep 1 afloat

Let's recall Return of the Jedi: "Now witness the firepower of this fully ARMED and OPERATIONAL battle station." As with all good Star Wars, it will rhyme once Thrawn gets back and a squadron gets absolutely manhandled by his one seemingly wrecked Star Destroyer. In fact, if I had to hazard a guess, he will have a way to disable the ships and take the fleet for himself, maybe through an EMP like attack and perhaps by simultaneously activating his agents/ Imperial sympathizers that are part of the crews to disrupt/take over while the undead troopers board and reinforce (something that's super well set up across all the live action shows so far). Furthermore, we now know resources were being siphoned under the New Republic's nose from one of the biggest shipyards the Empire had. There may he a fleet waiting to reinforce Thrawn at some point.
@StevenHouse1980 Жыл бұрын
It's an Imperial warship so it would depend on the priority's of the situations that it has been through Vs it's ability to be repaired with parts that could be made from scratch. In Rebels Thrawn only had to face off against the ghost crew including two Jedi. The Skywalker Jedi faction could prove to provide more Jedi friends. Also Thrawn's return may get side tracked by the Chiss Acedancy.

I was curious about this question myself so, I hunted for what plans and schematics there were and turned them over to my Dad who is a chartered vessel salvage engineer and asked him to cast his eye over them and the images we see. His opinion, from over 30 years in the business, is that if Thawn arrived at Peridia with a few of his ships and used the badly damaged ones for parts, then there is a good chance that she'd be capable of putting up a half good fight. He thought it was odd that the gold like metal is not covering all over the damage, so his view is that its strapped to the original spaceframe in order to strengthen it compared to repairing like the trooper armour. The port side main engine not only looks damaged from the engine bell but also the area around is is pitted, scored and broke so he would discard that right away. The centre engine looks as if it would light if it was very badly needed to but the starboard main engine appears to be intact so he'd have no issues lighting that up. What he was surprised to note was the lack of repairs to the "upper works" or the bridge area - thats been left as damaged on arrival, so Thrawn might be controlling the ship from a secondary room. There also seems to be a lack of weapons from midships aft, so any engagement in a ship to ship role would have to be facing forwards on to the target

Morgan Elsbeth’s shuttle is made out of the metal, the rubix-map was made of the metal, the Night Trooper’s armor seems to be patched with this metal, and the interior of The Eye of Sion seems to be similar metal. Maybe it has some Magick properties?

We didn't create "net energy" fusion. We spent something crazy like >1000x more than the amount of joules we got back.

But the amount of energy we used total to in the process was an insanely large amount.

Gold is a terrible material to repair a ship with. Its fairly soft, which means it makes terrible armour, but most importantly, extremely dense. Well over twice as dense as steel, which would be a major problem considering how the ship is already having to run the reactor at full power to stay hovering.
