[@lightnihilus]

@@PrestonDCox That would be interesting to see. Do you believe that the Separatist/ CIS Faction and Thrawn get along with the Tau from Warhammer 40K? Since the Tau are considered Heretics to the Imperium of Man.

[@PrestonDCox]

@@lightnihilus I know the Tau well enough that they could work better in Star Wars than in 40k. I say that because of peace treaties and other forms of government stuff. Would they get with the Separatist? Probably, as long as Donku doesn't appear bad them, sure but they'll probably get along way better with the Republic.

[@lightnihilus]

@@PrestonDCox I totally agree. The Starwars Legends Universe is alot more peace get along Universe Compared to Warhammer 40K. The Tau are my only favorite faction in Warhammer 40K. Lets just say that The CIS/Separatist, Republic, and the Tau got along in the Starwars Legends Universe. I'm pretty sure that Dooku would do well good with talking to the Tau peacefully. Dooku does pretty good with those types of things. To let you know alot of Neutrol systems did join the CIS/Separatist during the Clone wars. Some Neutrol systems joined the Republic, and some other Neutrol Systems stayed Neutrol. The CIS/Separatist , Tau, and the Republic got along. Grand Admiral Thrawn also is with Count Dooku while talking to the Tau peacefully. To also let you know Sidious has both factions of the Separatist/CIS and the Republic

[@TheWarmachine375]

Ever since the Imperium's invasion on the Star Wars galaxy that turned the Clone Wars from a puppet war into a real all-out war albeit unwittingly, the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems decided to work together and fight against the common enemy as they deployed a combined force of Clone Troopers and Battle Droids on Christophsis with the objective of capturing the Imperial supply base to seize its weapons for reverse engineering and fight back against the Imperium. The Clones aren't exactly thrilled of working with Droids and fighting alongside them but orders are orders from the Republic command and good soldiers follow orders. The combined force have 9 NR-N99 Persuader-class droids, 6 Armored Assault Tanks, 6 TX-130 Saber-class fighter tanks, 6 Octuptarra tri-droids, 5 All Terrain Tactical Enforcers, 3 All Terrain Open Transports and 3 Multi-Troop Transports on their side. On the other hand, the men and women of the Imperial Guard mobilized themselves to take defensive positions with 8 Basalisk Batteries, Layered Defenses, Vanquisher Turrets and Heavy Mortars and defend the supply base from Republic-Separatist attacks. As the brave Guardsmen who faced down foul xenos and vicious daemons, they will hold the line against the combined slave armies of the heretical Republic and Separatists. The battle begins with the disposable force of Droids sent in first to probe defenses and the Guardsmen are the first to open fire with their weapons, turrets, and artillery pieces. After entering the killzone, the Droids returned fire and continued their advance despite already suffering heavy lossess. The B1s are the quickest to go down while the B2s and Spider Droids lasted a bit longer and shot down a few Guardsmen with their blaster fire before they too were destroyed. Standard Trade Federation tactics have proven to be ineffective against the Imperium as the last of the Spider Droids are wiped out. After that, the main assault force of Clones and Droids moved in with their respective tanks being the first to start their attack. However, the Imperial artillery fire is highly effective against the exposed attackers as the heavy mortars and Basalisk Batteries lay heavy barrage on the tanks of the Republic and Separatists, taking out several of them. Meanwhile the said tanks opened fire on the Guardsmen and killed several of them. The defenders suffered light casualties but they still hold strong and kept firing on their advancing enemies. The Clones and Droids dismount from their AT-OTS and MTTs and charged towards the ongoing battlefield where the remaining Republic and Separatist tanks and walkers exchange fire with the Imperials who had their full attention and opened fire on them with immense abhorrence. The attackers are slowly advancing near towards the slowly bleeding Imperial defenses despite the losses they have suffered. Suddenly, the Republic and CIS forces realize their mistake too late as 10 Space Marine Drop Pods landed from above and out came the Space Marines of the Blood Ravens Chapter. The Astartes opened fire on the surprised Clones and Droids who were routed and massacred. They did not stand a chance and the remaining Guardsmen are emboldened by the Space Marines' surprise attack and left their defensive positions to wipe out the surviving attackers. Many Clones and Droids are completely wiped out with no survivors left and their tanks and walkers have been utterly destroyed, resulting in a devastating Republic-CIS defeat at the hands of the Blood Ravens and Imperial Guard.

Clearly the star wars forces need to revise their tactics to face this kind of foe. Even if the warhammer forces can't replenish their losses or space marines, these kind of attacks play wholly into their hands. If they want to be really effective, they'll need to adopt more facets to an attack than just infantry and armored forces. They need air support, they need artillery, they need behind-the-lines landings, and they'll need them all at once to crack a fortress like that. They could potentially do it, too. With their substantial advantage in hyperdrives, they could bring ARC-170's or other hyperdrive fighters and bombers into a warzone even through an enemy blockade (a very 'rebellion' tactic). They could coordinate wildly diverse forces from a system over. They could have infantry support platforms fly a bunch of super battledroids behind enemy lines to run amok (dipping out of the atmosphere if they need to). In the event they DO have orbit over an enemy planet, the amount of fighters available to the attackers pose a massive problem to the defending forces.

[@apathymanthemundane4165]

@@Bluesonofman I'm not so certain. The time it takes to set up a viable, loyal colony such that you can draw reliable human tithes from it might take a longer time than they've been in the SW galaxy. Recruiting the colonists directly might not be sustainable in the long run, and trying to draw from the local extremists might not be viable either, since they aren't usually extreme enough for warhammer. I *could* see them servitor-izing any captured clones and human POW's, or making penal units out of human civilians, the former of which is probably the most viable option in the short term. Penal units could be subverted by a clever jedi or three breaking their bomb collars.

Plus if they straight up invaded the Star Wars Galaxy, they'd have to deal with the fact that there's no warp. No shields for their ships or titans, no navigators, no warp travel.

@@rayhankazianga6817 The Warp (also known as the Immaterium) exists everywhere, it isn't just localized to the Milky Way.

[@rayhankazianga6817]

@@Mobius_118 but it's never once mentioned in star wars. It isn't where jedi or sith draw their power from, it's not used as faster than light travel for starships, and it doesn't help create void shields for starships and superheavy armored fighting vehicles. We can try all we want, but it boils down to " They're 2 completely separate universes, you can't accurately compare them." Plus if the warp existed in star wars, why have no force users been turned into warp portals or been possessed by daemons?

I think why the Clones and Droids always lose is because they lack the fire power that Imperial Guard has, the weapons the Clones and Droids always use are beam weapons and sometimes rockets or missiles even in their vehicles while the Imperial Guard has lasgun, grenade launcher, plasma gun, heavy bolters, lascannon, assault cannon and their vehicles Chimera, Sentinel, Hellhound, Basilisk, Lemun Russ Battle Tank and Baneblade Super Tank.

[@Connor.SG-1Ring]

The Imperium has the range advantage. In Star Wars, the range of standard blaster is around 100-300 m (109-328 yd). That's low when compared to modern firearms (M4 Carbine) that have a range of 500-600 m (550-660 yd).

[@rz5547]

2:52 What you have shown is not a standard tactic of the trade federation or the CIS In the first episode, when attacking enemy positions, tanks were the first to fire from the maximum range, and only then infantry droids attacked. And after the destruction of the shield, there was a simultaneous attack of equipment and infantry. Since the Imperial Guard does not have a shield, the droids must advance with the support of tanks standing in the rear. Now as for the CIS tactics All types of troops attack at the same time - you can see this in the second episode. In the animated series , the tactics are as follows The first ones are not droids B2, but droids B1. The task of the first rows is to take on the enemy's blow, while more valuable units are approaching an effective firing distance. At the same time, the equipment must also participate in the battle, supporting the first rows with fire. Infantry droids will not stop until they get closer to the enemy's positions - so to speak, so that the pace, accuracy of shooting become overwhelming. The dwarf spider droids, by the way, had the opportunity to blow themselves up, which they took advantage of when they approached enemy positions.

[@MADSAHAD]

Beautifully done, my hat is off to you, But Between 500 and 200 meters out from the trenchworks should have had a 300 meter wide minefield with two safe pathways through. The deep strike marine attack should have only been launched when the enemy was within the minefield. The IG should not have charged out of the trenches but stayed put and continued firing into the bogged down enemy. Imperium casualties would have been lower in the end.

Only counting the astra militarum the empire would be outnumbered and outgunned.
