The CIS starfighter corps was truly brilliant. Large numbers meant they could use swarm tactics versus the GAR having to use over-engineered and expensive ships like the ARC 170. Also being droids meant they could coordinate their attacks far better than organic pilots could. Furthermore with no living pilots their starfighters were smaller and more maneuverable, thus harder to hit.

The CIS Navy is my favorite by far. They had a ton of advantages, including a few that I think are left unsaid. - Numbers. In most typical combat situations, the CIS Navy had the Republic outnumbered two to one, if not more so, and their reserves were massive. This numerically superior approach was perfect for a long term war, and it was a solid decision to rely on mass production of such vital starships. - Logistics. The Confederacy's decision to rely on droids was nothing short of brilliant in this case. Droids don't need food, water, sleep or medical care of any kind. They just need power, repairs and ammunition, and droid engineers and mechanics were effectively medics by extension, making droid medical ships unnecessary. It also made resupplying fleets easy, while the Republic logistics network was basically wheezing trying to catch up. - Coordination. If there is one thing the Seperatists nailed during the Clone Wars, it was combining the firepower and momentum of the droid Navy (and army) without flaw. In fact, CIS coordination was so good that some of the Empire's best fleets simply paled in comparison. - Firepower. The droid Navy was one of the strongest in the galaxy, and could actually compete with the Republic Navy with hardly anyone not taking it seriously. I bet the Confederate Navy would have mopped the floor with the Imperial Navy. - Cost effectiveness. The CIS Navy was very cost effective and didn't take much money to expand, since many of its ships were designed for mass production, which saved the Seperatists quite a lot of money, while the Republic by comparison was almost bankrupt by war's end. - Versatility. The Confederacy's Navy had countless specialized ships for completely different combat roles. The Munificent cruiser formed the sturdy bulk of their fleets, the Recuscant was an excellent, well armed flanker, the Providence was versatile, tough and more than a match for a Venator, and the Lucrehulk was pretty much the ultimate command ship. Not to mention I love how they look. I always preferred the more "mechanical" appearance of the Confederacy.

The warship reconfiguration of their fleets was also an easy task for them considering the highly modular configuration of their ships. The CIS constituent Fleets skirted Ruusan reformation limits by having the modular sockets that would house their heavier weapons serve as housing for other equipment. When war was declared, it was a simple matter of swapping out components. With all this in mind, It's important to note that they were still operating way below their potential. Had they not been manipulated by Plaegus and Sidious from the start, they could have easily crushed the Republic's forces. They could've swiftly taken and easily held resource rich systems within Republic space thus thoroughly hampering their already relatively limited capacity to wage war.

@Adam and Eve clones may be more effective, but they take massive amounts of time and resources to raise compared to a battle droid. You have to raise them for 10 years, feed them, medically threat them and once their service is over you will have a shit ton of soldiers you need to give retirement to. Droids on the other hand are quick the manufacture where you can make one in minutes and only require basic maintenance and power charging and when you are done with them, simply deactivate them. They are also 100 loyal. If the war kept going, I'm pretty sure that the clone troopers will realize they're slaves. A single clone trooper would need to kill 100 droids or maybe more just to make up for their cost. Also, clone troopers are literally slaves forced to fight wars of a corrupt bureaucratic government with no will of their own. Really unethical to exploit them than compared to mindless machines.

Adam and Eve ok you sound like a child but I’m going to step into the argument and both help you argument while also refute it. Clones didn’t have the skill of Mandalorians. That being said clones were far better warriors then any droid models except for the Magna droids and they were few in number as they were expensive and most magna droids were under the command of and personally trained by general grievous. Besides them the only droids that came close were commando droids and I’d say they were on par if not better then your average clone but were inferior by a pretty large margin to that of more skilled clone troopers. Over all the clones in terms of sheer power and skill were likely the greatest ground forces in Star Wars as though they didn’t have the skill of the mandalorians they had a pretty large numbers advantage with better tech. That being said they would still lose to the CIS because they have a massive and I do mean MASSIVE numbers advantage. Were sidious to not interfere beyond starting the clone wars the CIS would have won the war without question.

I would captain a Lucrehulk battleship. It would serve as a perfect mobile command for a PMC/Bounty Hunter/Mercenary group that would be functional for space and planet side warfronts. The large hangars would allow for a variety of vehicles of various types for both battlefronts, large scale troop deployment, cargo transport, and have room to spare. The CIS has cool designs that are lethally effective. That has always been there appeal to me from the very start. In the original Battlefront games, I likes playing on the CIS side or stealing their ships because of how much I like the designs. Especially the Tri fighter. My introduction to Star Wars was the Phantom Menace as a kid then the original trilogy and then the last 2 prequels was my original viewing order. When the opening script finished rolling, reading every word I felt drawn in to the setting, then we see a plain starship but then pans over to this imposing, massive station, which turns out to be a battle ship, and I felt awed by its scale and the implied might it could bear down upon enemies, quickly conveying just how dangerous it is. I am pretty neutral towards the War but if the sith and jedi were removed from the equation, then I would side with the CIS. The Clones got the short end of the stick and forced to do the dirty work. I pity them, poor souls. Thank you if you read this far. Have a pleasant day.

Gaius Wyrden dude you need to do more research. The imperial navy was pretty bad. It’s fighters were some of the worse ever made the star destroyers had a lot of fire power and strong armor and shielding but had virtually no point defense systems and overly exposed shield generators which made them highly susceptible to surgical strike and bombing runs. The rebels didn’t win because of plot armor they won because the empire was trying to fight a war that was fought mostly with fighters with warship with no point defenses and a high vulnerability to surgical strike and shitty fighters of there own. The navy of the empire is IMO the worst in Star Wars. It had very little diversity and what it did have was strong in theory but not in execution. In terms of sheer fire power the imperials should have the strongest but when u consider other factors there navy was actually pretty shitty.

Highly-automated vessels, replacable and very efficient crew, diverse ship types specialized for specific tactical roles, more-realistic designs, all of these really put the CIS ahead of the Republic,and I think they were better-designed on purpose because of a general lack of continuity constraints (venators and acclamators needing to look similar enough to star destroyers and to differentiate the factions) and maybe, also to give the main heroes more recognition for winning battles with clearly-inferior ships. I think the greatest advantage of the CIS navy was not only the extremely-convenient pre-set-up base and multiple sources that just happened to fit together perfectly, but competant-enough commanders to use these advantages in combined-arms tactics to their fullest.

Even into the Imperial era a fully armed Lucrehulk was a force to be reckoned with. I'd captain one without any hesitation whatsoever. You basically drop that mother ******** into orbit around a planet and you're good to go. Immense firepower, nearly impenetrable shields and armor, and enough starfighters, droids/landing craft, and supplies to single-handedly occupy a planet? What more could you want? Aside from maybe a super laser... Looking at you, Eclipse.

I think you're over estimating the utility of the Lucrehulk battleships and the CIS logistical advantage. Lucrehulks might have been massively powerful ships, but they were also just massive ships each one the size of a large battlecruiser and the CIS could only bring a relative handful to bare at any one point in the war and had fairly weak armaments for their size, in star fighter carrying capacity a single Venator carried 20-25% as much as the Lucrehulk in a hull that was maybe around 1/25 the size if we're being generous (1137x548x268m compared to 3120x3009x1029m, I didn't do the maths because of the giant negative spaces and odd shapes, I'd need to CAD model each one to work it out, but it wouldn't surprise me if it turned out to be under 2% as large) and while it had a huge number of guns a Victory 1 probably had half the armament a Lucrehulk has while being even smaller than a Venator and could likely being even more to bare in any one direction and a doughnut shaped ship could while an Imperial 1 probably matches it's firepower. Each Lucrehulk needed a powerful escort because they were the weak links in the CIS fleet, if a Lucrehulk in a fleet was destroyed that fleet probably just lost most of its star fighters, supplies and any significant ground forces it had. Without Lucrehulks the CIS wouldn't have been able to invade planets and if they couldn't attack planets the Republic would be able to free up more clones from defensive duties to go on the attack. As for logistics, I think you're missing a lot of what logistics means, it's more than food and medical supplies, the vast bulk of both sides logistics trains would have been busy ferrying fuel, spare weapons, spare parts and reinforcements to the front lines, and just because they used droids didn't mean that the CIS forces were self sustaining, especially with how many droids their ground tactics ensured would be lost in every fight (they'd need a lot of replacements) and spare parts for technicians to repair and maintain the droids that survived any given fight. If anything the CIS should have had worse logistics than the Republic due to their astrography (the Republic had the interior lines of communication, with better hyperspace lanes between their industrial base and the front, and shorter overall distances to travel with more direct routes across the galaxy instead of needing to go all the way around) and their reliance on sheer quantity of equipment.
@terrenaven5 жыл бұрын
I just want to point out, you are grossly overestimating how large a Lucrehulk is compared to a Venator. Watch the episode where Anakin rams his star destroyer into the blockade battleship. The venator is about a third of the size and maybe a little less in mass than the Lucrehulk, not 2% of the size. Like, damn, i don't know where you got that figure from, just looking at it it's clear the ratio is nowhere near that. Also, with their firepower, just by design you can see that mose star wars ships are not very good at concentrating their firepower to one point. The Venator and Victory as well as the Imperial I and II need to either angle their nose down and expose their bridge to bring their full firepower on one target (although their bridges were overexposed enough as it is) or they can only broadside. The Lucrehulk is very much a defensive type of ship. Slow, heavily armored, and with many overlapping fields of fire but nowhere to fully concentrate its firepower means it has a powerful broadside and is great as a second-line combatant. Secondly, yes, Geetsly's is a bit wrong with how he described logistics, but in the way he's talking, he means the logistics of keeping these ships crewed and operational. Despite the heavy casualties that Separatist ground forces endured, by the end of the clone wars the CIS had BILLIONS of droids. Spreading them out by a couple hundred to each warship barely makes a dent in those numbers, even with the tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of ships they had by the end of the war.

Corey Micallef I don’t know where tf u got your info the lucrehulks were noted for insane shielding and it could single handed take on multiple venetors at the same time. Not to mention you’re forgetting that many of his hangers were for ground vehicles and troops. As for its weapon systems it seem like you’re thinking of pre refit lucrehulks. There only really weakness was speed.

Corey Micallef I don’t know what ur referencing about u talking about another reply u made but regardless you’re wrong. The Lucrehulk was cheaper to make then a Venator, was around 3-4 times the size carried hundreds of thousands more troops had 6 times the fire power 5 times the fighter and artillery vehicle compliment, and is confirmed to be capable of taking on 3+ Venator Star destroyers on its own. All of this while being able to run of a crew one 3rd the size of what was required for a Venator.

The ship the CIS needed was a dedicated carrier. I can imagine a ship that is just a long skinny cylinder containing a drive and shields that had thousands of skinny arm/racks of Tri-fighters or Vulture and Hyena droid starfighters. Those fighters were half the cost of their manned counterparts and were unmanned so less expensive to operate. The rack carrier ships could just pop in quickly unload or drop off their racks and exit the theater of battle into hyperspace.

Very late to this but I'd captain the malevolence. The malevolence was a brilliant ship used in an idiotic fashion. If I were a captain I would have demanded that it be surrounded by a fleet escort of carriers and a few cruisers for general defense to deflect the weakness of fighter counters. It would have made stealth aspects of the ship nearly impossible but I still think it would have been a much smarter move than to simply have it gun it solo and basically wait for the republic to muster enough offensive fighters to overwhelm the point defense systems

3:45 The skeletal nature of the Munificent would have made it perfect for ferrying Vulture and Hyena droid starfighters on the exterior, many of these starfighters could probably still have been under the cover of the armor plating. These starfighters wouldn’t have been able to get refueled or have maintenance done on them, but I suspect the CIS respected their droid starfighters about as much as they respected their B-1s anyway (which was not at all) and probably assumed these starfighters were disposable anyway. So not having the ability to refuel or maintain the fighters is a feature, not a bug.

The different science fiction universes are hard to compare one on one because they all have unique laws of physics or arbitrary technical jargon that means nothing in any universe but their own. It's also so insanely massive that it doesn't need deep bass voiced narration to explain the massive technical feats of engineering and scale to prove anything. It is what it is.

5:53 - fend off multiple Republic Star Destroyers? Well, in Republic Commando, one was taken down by 2 Acclamators, one of which had its shields down and was heavily damaged. So IDK, was that specific Lucrehulk just never upgraded from its pre-Clone Wars configuration? Also, it's mentioned in visual dictionaries and on Wookieepedia that it takes 4-6 Recusant-class light destroyers to outgun a Venator. Plus, in the Clone Wars cartoon, I think it's pretty clear that a Venator has more firepower than a Munificent. We see in the Battle of Bothawui that in a bow-to-bow fight, with the munificent's heavy turbolasers and heavy ion canons pointing right at the Venators, that with a 2-to-1 advantage, Munificents outgun Venators. But, in the same battle, Grievous says "if we attack from above, they will have the advantage", implying that a Venator's dorsal side vs a Munificent's ventral side would take more than a 2-to-1 advantage for the Munificents to win. Still, I agree that the Separatist Navy is the most well-designed navy in Star Wars, aside from the New Republic and Galactic Alliance navies and maybe the Yuuzhan Vong fleet.

My favorite ship in the CIS, and maybe all of Star Wars cannon, is the Lucrehulk. I imagine myself in the post-Empire time. If I had a Lucrehulk, I’d use it for its original purpose, as a heavily armed and maximally-shielded and heavily-armored freighter, no pirate gang would dare step up to that! I would also do mercenary planetary defense on the side. I would use the massive amounts of profits to buy dozens of Correllian light freighters, it would be easiest for fleet maintenance to get all the same light freighters, like YT-2400s since they have good internal carrying capacity and can haul cargo boxes on the bottom, and are very nimble and have powerful shields and huge reactors. I would heavily modify their freighters to run anti-starfighter screening for mercenary purposes and run unescorted on smuggling and smaller legitimate freight delivery runs. For the Lucrehulk and the freighters I’d upgrade the hyperdrives to be as fast as possible for delivery and super-fast defensive response to the planets which hired me out as a mercenary. I’d probably buy a few dozen starfighter interceptors or superiority fighters, like really common ones like maybe the Z-95, but with upgrades to modernize it. For purposes of mercenary work and defense I would utilize only Ion cannons, ion torpedos, and ion bombs, so I could claim the dead ships as salvage and either add them to my fleet or sell them off, which ever suited my fancy. Like any good swashbuckler, I’d divide all of my profits and spoils evenly and equitably among my crew and the captains of my various light freighters.

If the Sith never pulled the strings of the Confederacy, and the Jedi never went into politics, they would wipe out the Republics Grand Army instantly, and the Battle for Coruscant would have been a lot sooner. Plus the Republic would have had Acclamatiors and some early Venators, against Lukerhulk, Providence, Recusant, and Munificent class star destroyers. I have to say, the fact that the ships didn't need major life support systems, and bunks/cafeterias, etc. provided their ships with almost like spaced armor, except that hollow space was filled with cargo, or Drone-Star-fighters, along with massive Shield Generators, made their ships a really hard target to kill.
