That last battle played out exactly like an episode of Clone Wars. I can just imagine Grievous's wheezing laugh as the first couple of corvettes hyperspace in, believing Kuat to be well within his grasp. Unbeknownst to him, however, Jedi General Shack has laid a cunning trap, with his main fleet waiting just outside of sensor range. Just as the Separatist general takes the bait, the trap is sprung, and Grievous is cornered. Roaring in frustration, he smashes the nearest battle droid and runs for his personal starfighter, only barely escaping Republic justice.

[@marcosbravo9645]

Shack, I suggest upgrading your space stations that will eventually be attacked to level 3, they are way better than the level 2 in terms of firepower. I'm adding things as I watch. Anakin has an ability that one shots armor, you may find it useful. If possible, remember to always check your base layout, it can be the difference between victory and defeat. Bombing runs always take the longest routes to their target since the base game, that means the best place to put AA turrets is at the middle of the map, notice that's a thing the AI usually does. Again, you overestimate the range of the beam weapon, it has a very short range, except with space stations. When you order it to fire from that distance, the Venators will start maneuvering to get in range without you noticing.

[@XthatsXcrumpX]

Very useful tips bro i never knew that about the bombing run

[@marcosbravo9645]

august layman thanks bro, remember to put AA turrets in the middle.

[@hubjump]

on worlds you want defended, 3 venators for fighter aid and a small spam of about 4 to 6 dreadnoughts is the way to have a chance with level 3 stations. also anti fighter corvettes are mandatory because CIS Lucre spam, also take the world near the wheel which gives 25% increased fighter and corvette damage. on top of that use honoghr as a staging point to take nalhutta for a nice 200+ extra cash, i say 200+ because ive had it give me 800~ creds before which was nice.

[@hubjump]

also take mygeeto and the other world by that, i forgot which one of the two, also forgot the name of one, but it gives 8000 creds when maxed out.

[@marcosbravo9645]

hubjump the problem is that he doesn't have tech to build Venators yet, or money to fortify the frontline planets very well.

[@aterranrepublicgrunt9169]

Did none of you watch his last Let's Play? He lost almost all the outer rim worlds on his first Let's play and was entirely on the defensive for the better half of 69 episodes. Why do you think that that LP lasted that long? It's because he spent half of it taking back lost planets.

[@HeiwaNoKami]

General Shack, incoming transmission from Kamino. The 327th Star Corps are still currently training in the citadel along side the 501st and 212th battalions but there have been talks that there is a sizeable fleet above Rothana. Rothana is one of the Republics best positioned military installations capable of building capital shipyards to help with the outer rim sieges. It also has potential for manufacturing armor on a large scale to help with the fight as well. This has got the shinnies nervous as they have a formidable position to strike at Kamino. If Rothana falls Kamino is next. May the force be with us.

[@noah_tries_gaming8318]

I'm so glad you Have started another campaign. I loved your previous videos. I never knew about it the first series finished. But I loved it. Tech level 1 isn't so hard. Last time your started at tech level 4 and that was a some kind of struggle lol. But since you're at 1. I wouldn't worry. If anything you are doing well. Much better than last time. But the game will get harder of course. 1. Never attack space stations without Venators 2.Commando raids(including just Jedi) they are what balances out the CIS space advantage and can capture key planets good for the increasing conflict. 3. Grab Mygeeto (not like you haven't heard that a miliion times) 4.Never auto resolve unless you REALLY have to(cuz even I don't see point in playing a pointless battle to take a 1 small ship down) 5.You remember your last game. Focus on digging in on planets not in space(don't make the same mistake twice) That's all I got. There are more planets i would list for you to target. But that's no fun having a perfect game Lol.

[@mr.lobster531]

I see you have picked the Republic, I hope it goes well. I personally picked the CIS we are currently crushing the republics fleets and armies

[@psyoperator58]

I wish he would pick the CIS, he played the Republic last time.

[@nocommentary9]

Came back and finished watching this episode and I'll leave a bit of advice that I've learnt from my recent successful campaign against the separatists: 1a) Heroes are very powerful- Heroes were a key reason why I had early success in my war. Whilsts the Separtists threw it's huge fleets at me that forced me on the defensive I utilised my heroes to raid planets. In the early days I was able to completely capture planets leaving small-medium fleets without shipyard defences and vulnerable to my attacks. Later war they still played a key role in destroying production facilities and mines. Yoda is extremely powerful due to his health and force sight and whilst i found it hard to find him a suitable partner, Anakin seemed to fill the hole. 1b) Strike Fleets- Without this tactic my raiding campaign wouldn't have been so effective. After realising how powerful my raiding parties were I adopted a new doctrine of fighting that led me to stay on top in the early war despite being mostly on the defensive. The idea was that instead of having smaller fleets all over the galaxy and leaving small garrisons to protect useless planets I decided to group most my fleets into strike forces. One massive fleet for the core worlds, outer rim ect. I would then use these fleets to decimate fleets that are left isolated in space after my raids would destroy their shipyard support. 2) Strategic Offensives- Shack's idea to invade the core worlds was a smart move but to make this tactic even smarter I'll discuss further. At the start of the war one of the Republic's pressing concerns is that there isn't too many places where planets are completely safe from attack making it hard to place mines where factories could be built for garrisons. Taking the core worlds is key however its not the only place you could start. I started by taking the 2 closests worlds to Coruscant for internal security then set up a blockade at Correllia. I then changed my focus further north from Ilum to Dantooine and secured the few separtists worlds there. This allowed me to place many mining facilities to the north where it was now away from the war and funded my war efforts for the entirity of the war. 3) Mid Era doctrine- My final piece of advice is directed to the period around Tier 3 where the Republic lacks Venators or such war machines and the Separtists have the opposite. I personally find Tiers 2,3,4 the hardest as the Confederacy by this point has spent its vast resources on digging in on planets galaxy wide and now has the equipment to counter the Republic raiding doctrine. I consider this part of the war a massive defensive game of 'holding on' and 'stockpiling credits' in preparation of the Republic Tech supremacy of 4 and 5. So my advice/doctrine? Dig in. Expand your economy as much as possible and change the raid's purposes from capturing planets to taking out key infrastructure. I find Yoda and Delta a great mix for this job as Yoda can use his force sight to discover weak targets and isolated facilities for Delta to destroy. I hope this helps your campaigns. It's often nice to look at the history in game however dont let the vast Separatists credits frighten you. Just realise that one day they'll spend those 200,000 credits and hope that you dug in enough to stop them :P

[@ballisticdoggy3960]

Another episode of Republic At War. Keep it up!

[@infokeeper8238]

Hey Shack. The first upgrade on your station is a garrison upgrade. That is what is giving you defensive reinforcements. The third rank grants Venators or Victories.

[@guardian6293]

Info Keeper In rare cases it can give the Pride of the Core, so I have heard at least, but it’s bugged if you don’t already have Pride of the Core unlocked making it more of a curse than a blessing.

[@infokeeper8238]

Your kidding

[@guardian6293]

Info Keeper Yeah, I am going to find a source as I have only heard people say this can happen; watch Corey Loses series on this, it’s in the comments on episode 2 or 3 (he livestreams when he records the episodes).

[@infokeeper8238]

Ok. I will. Thanks

[@guardian6293]

Info Keeper No Problem.

[@FirstPassOfficial]

With the buildable/buyable ground turrets, don’t forget that you can sell them for no penalty even if damaged or simply the wrong type. I tend to have a high turret turn-over rate to keep them fully healthed up.

[@jkgamer1002]

That end battle was amazing it was fun to watch the separatist forces constantly invade planets and annoy you but at the end you completely kicked there ass

[@dark0zim]

Was playing empire at war, got a notification and paused it and now Im watching this, love this series

[@gamewizard6729]

THAT SPACE FIGHT WAS SO CLUCH & THE WAY YOU COMMANDED YOUR FLEET TO TARGET THE ENGINES WERE AMASING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(the one at the end of the video)

[@michaelantonacci300]

Hey Shack! One thing to keep in mind that I actually heard from CoreyLoses while he played this version of this mod is that the CIS AI will normally always try to finish a battle they start. If they take the space above one of your planets you can always expect a ground invasion soon to come. Love the campaigns you do and I'm so happy you are playing this mod again!!!

[@oliverchow61]

When you’re using the thermal detonators for the speeder bikes, rather than going there, stopping and only getting a few droids, you should pre-emtively make the speeder bikes run through the group before they get there and plant the bombs when they are in the middle of the droids

[@oliverchow61]

Also, SPAM the Sabretanks. They can run over infantry and come with rocket launchers for turrets, armour and shielded opponents. Rush the drop zone with them when defending planets and you should never lose

[@jarnovanherreweghe218]

shack has never been the guy to spam 1 unit, in his previous lets play after episode 40 or so we started yelling at him in the comments every time that he should spam venators but he wouldn't do it since such gameplay seems boring to him, he likes more balanced armies that have a little bit of every unit

[@oliverchow61]

jarno van herreweghe Yeah I know what you’re saying. What I meant was that they were extremely effective and he should invest in them

[@AngelOfIron]

And my day was immediately made 1,000,000x better. Thank you, Shack! Time to settle in with a mug of cocoa and watch you wreck some clankers!

[@Trainsmann]

I learned from my own playthrough so i rushed my research whenever I could and about 5 hours of gametime im halfway to Tech5. You gotta get the Venators fast or else its going to be a snowball.

[@jarnovanherreweghe218]

yea the republic needs more venators to realy attack oter fleets, aclamators don't do jack shit agains't munificents or cis ships early game, the only other ship you could use is the heavy dreadnaught but thet thing is slow and expensive

[@Trainsmann]

jarno van herreweghe not including how droid fighters outnumber yours all the time and your bombers are way too slow. So v wings and arc fighters a must

[@jarnovanherreweghe218]

yea for sure, i think they nerfed the buzz droids in this version of the mod because my gihters are not getting wrecked as fast as earlier and my corvettes are not taking any damage from them (previously they got annihilated by them) but even so the cis fighters are early game still better with the buzz droids

[@marinepixel6325]

Later on, I recommend splitting Venators into defense fleets of three, like in the clone wars TV show

[@dustinjolly8494]

Marine Pixel that’s a terrible idea due to if they get hit by a massive fleet they can get wrecked and in the clone wars did you not realize how many venator fleets of 3 got trucked

[@USSEnterprise3]

Dustin Jolly lul

[@ethanjones3180]

Dustin Jolly Okay? If the Republic did it he should do it too.

[@XthatsXcrumpX]

I had this same idea and with a space station and usually 3 frigates and 3 Corvets and a space station of at least lvl 3 or higher can hold off medium to large CIS fleets

Thank you Shack for adopting the plan to build up defenses in fortress worlds in the outer rim and focus on securing the core. Not sure if you got that from my suggestions last vid or if that was your plan all along, but I support it either way.

[@kaibeargaming244]

[@multigwilty5154]

Super late to this party but I'm really enjoying this series already! It was you Shack that put me onto this game and I'm playing through this mod myself at the moment. They've really nailed the feeling of the space battles and the Clone Wars soundtrack is AMAZING. It's probably one of the best mods for a game that I've ever played tbh.

[@Azulon120]

It is so nice seeing this series having returned =D Thamks a lot :D

[@garkon8242]

Love to see you play this, playing it myself right now. The new balancing has made this mod so much better! From my point of the Campaign on (Admiral too) the Seps will get some momentum soon, i think securing the Core first, as almost all important Planets there can get a Plasma Gun(nerfed!) and high level Space Stations plus beeing you main ship yards might be a strategy. Many Planets of the outer Rim can hold an Outpost, so they can be hold on ground for the time beeing. I think in the previous Version Kamino only had a route to the Core via Tatooine, but the changed that, theres a direct rout now from what i have seen.

[@Lufftewaffle]

Shack, remember to get a bunch of scout walkers when defending planets, they work amazing as anti infantry and as units to cap their points. Also, rush through the tech as fast as you can.

[@nicholaswong6737]

Shack, rothana is a valuable industrial powerhouse, and in lore it provided the clone army with its Dropships, equipment and heavy vehicles. I suggest you use it and hold it with multiple heavy factories, to decrease production time and provide defence.

[@jewlssanam3128]

In space battles when you defend you can actually call in reinforcements and you can upgrade it in the space station to call in better reinforcements. And once you research it they will be available in the next battle

[@georgbergsten6050]

They can build capital ships at tech 3 but only on Hypori and Geonosis because they start with level 5 space stations.

[@umarulkhair1048]

Kudos on that trap. Damn the droids be like, "It's a trap!"

[@benmarshall3938]

A good idea for space battle strategy, would be to attack from behind if you can. When hyperspacing in, get a smaller ship to go around the outside (like a blockade runner) of the map and behind the enemy, which would make a flanking manoeuvre, and then hyperspace some ships in 👍 loved this vid though keep up the great work

[@selahh7032]

A tip for defending Rothana once you get artillery: Get two pairs of artillery. Set one up on the bottom of the map, just to the West of the river. They can bombard some units that get too close. Get the other pair up to the north of the east-side ring, and position some clones inside and to the east of that ring, allowing you a good line-of-sight with those on anything that pushes you. I fought off probably twenty attacks with that setup--I only controlled it, Bothawui, and Kamino in that cluster, so I had to abandon the space over one and I chose Rothana (Bothawui is harder to cheese on the ground than it is, and Kamino is too damn important).

[@saveritas731]

Cato is in your backyard and should definitely be your first priority. Once that is resolved, the borders of the Republic and the Confederacy will be clearer and your strategy should emerge from that.

[@anthonyz6913]

Shields on the ground in this game are more 9r less useless. They don’t stop troops from walking through. The AI almost never makes use of orbital support or bombers, and so the money would be much better spent on other things.

[@JeromeSkavenSlayer]

I suspect that Jedi in space battles are counted as a ground transport, but they are the best fighters in the game. Use a Jedi to scout a good spot to drop a battle line down. Or even Windu, Kenobi, and Skywalker at the same time. They can plow a lane through a solid wall of vulture droids working together.

[@calebmarsh1778]

After watching this vid I'd recommend spamming as many Corvettes, Peltas, and Acclamators as you can in your Navy. As for ground forces build as many light vehicle factories, and turbolaser towers as you can on all vulnerable worlds that are defendable, and spamming as many AT-RT, and Saber Tanks as you can. I'd also like to say that you need to utilities your fleets and ground forces better on worlds that are already defended, for example: Move all your fleet and ground forces from lets say Coruscant, and send them to a frontier world that's bordering a CIS world like Corellia, or Tatooine. I really hope this advise really helps in your campaign against the Seppi's.

[@AngryKettle]

The outpost gives you 4 AT-APs as a once off, no-respawn garrison. (Of course they come back for new invasions) Very worth it, they're probably the best ground unit the Republic has (stronger units are too slow). Make Mygeeto your #1 priority. With full mines it has a credit value of the rest of the galaxy (unmined) put together.

[@mattig89ch]

nice job shack! I actually downloaded this mod after you showed it off. Suffice it to say, I am no where near as good a commander as you are. XD Still, nice to see you taking the fight to the confederacy. Though those losses are going to be hard to replace. Keep up the great work!

So after you started talking about the republic at war lets play you did 3 years ago i decided to watch the entire lets play until todays episode came out

[@johnkeith8619]

Shack. With the core strategy you doing early. I recommend picking a planet in the clusters of outer rim world move all ships in that area to it then bunker on the planets of the others especially since turrets are persistent.

[@aidanmurray588]

the stealthship is a craft used by the republic in the clone wars in season 6( I think )which had missile bays and was used to try and take out admiral trench's providence it is a long thin pointy light grey ship capable of complete camouflage apart from magnetic traces

[@sashimi0003]

That was quite the epic space captain.

[@jonasvendlermusic]

Yo Shack I suggest taking Felucia as it gives you immunity to weather effects which helps a lot in most ground battles.

[@BapyTheSnowman]

Anti fighter support is key. Spam Arquitens and Consulars and set a perimeter of just alternating corvettes and light cruisers. Keep a corvette escort near venators and dreadnoughts if any. Light cruisers in the left and right center of the fleet. This will mostly work unless they have Providences or anti Corvette destroyers in which case retreat the light cruisers and corvettes behind the Acclamators but infront of the Venators. Also build up a fighter fleet for any large-ass providence/Recusant fleet. Have Venators or Acclamators in this fleet only for the Anti fighter point defense cruisers

Shack I know you like your victory class destroyers. In a space battle don't auto resolve. If you can hold out the level 3 reinforcement upgrade gives you 2 victory class and 3 Centax carriers. I had a battle where they had 10 munificent 1 technounion and 30 patrol frigates. I ended up winning the battle with a level 1 space station and nothing in the system before the battle started. It was a system I missed to upgrade when I started

The civ population on Honoghr, the Noghri, have anti-VEHICLE weapons. They specialize in taking down targets much larger than themselves. Also, gather you space forces at Carida, Corellia, and Duro, abandoning all other locations and defending them solely with ground troops. Put 5--8 Clone Platoons(Not squads) and Scout Walkers on each world and position your troops by the starting drop zone of the droids. Take them out before they can start to spread out. In the early stages the Republic takes huge losses in space because the enemy can produce Munificent Frigates but you can't make Venators

49:18 I actually got a good laugh of that “Ah shit!”

Rendili can build a pretty good Refinery for cash. You should invest into level 3 tec as soon as possible. AV-7 are the second backbone of your army, besides the Sabertanks. Your objectives after Cato, should be either Fondor, to take an important ship producing planet or Mygeeto for the money.

Shack: Saber Tanks can run over battle droids. Use them when overtaking large groups of B1's and SBD's.

hey shack now you can finally say "welcome back to republic at war" when you would actually be playing thrawns revenge

[@sozius0]

They included the stealth ship from that episode where they deliver supplies to cristophsis, hyped

[@MrJohnycomelately21]

The stealth ship is that long cloaking torpedo ship Anakin used against Admiral Trench in the Clone Wars to get through his blockade.

[@outoforder0]

This is so amazing. Cant wait for episode 3.

[@Mystiquex3]

I ❤️ this so much I’ve been waiting so long thanks for doing more btw i subbed

[@ruddevil]

Defend the Commander. 364th Dagger Wolfs get ready for battle.

[@Tobiasfowler]

I think the stealth ship you spoke about could be the ship that took out Admiral Trench's Providence.

[@jonharper4478]

Ground intensive episode this one. I'm more for the space engagements myself.

[@illogicalporcupine]

Just a heads up, not sure if it's been done in newer episodes. But Rothana gives a boost to heavy vehicle production (Rothana Heavy Engineering developed the LAAT, AT-TE, Acclamator, etc.) Just a tip. Great game.

[@jesse.mp3247]

The Stealth Ship is from the animated series when they where trying to get supplies to the planet but couldn't because of a blockade, and managed destroying the admirals flagship and killing him

[@michaelscalese4656]

Use your acclamators as a support ship. Use your venators as tanks, along with dreadnaughts. Peltas and Arquintans are beast support ships put them in between all your venators along with corvettes. Boom you have concussion missiles and quad turbo lasers firing from behind your venators and also a bunch of point defense cannons destroying fighters. Use the boost shield power and fire power on your ships. Use your bombers and fighter wings to flank the enemy and destroy the hangers on the space station. Do all this whole not moving your fleet(they'll be engaged with the defense fleet which they should be able to hold w/ little to no casualties) when your fighters and bombers succeed and if they survived pull them back to defend your fleet. Also to skip the space station part, use Yoda and any other jedi to commando raid, Yoda can do it alone, but don't risk irt

Dear God it's been a YEAR but finally is back episode 2 I'm gonna hibernate till the next one

[@jacobhogan3208]

when you have enough of a fleet, go for hypori..once that's taken out they won't have a leg to stand on outside of geonosis.

[@HRBladeAU]

This is the new age of empires games. I like this game keep it up with the upload please

[@TAnkersly19937]

here's my strategic advice: modify the ship stats to make your ships cheaper and build faster, stronger, and increase they're HSpace speed

[@LyokoWarrior101]

Shack don't forget to make some heavier vehicle factories! Get your Artillery, LAAT/i, AT-TE!
