STAR WARS REPUBLIC AT WAR! Ep 14

[@odstbag337]

Shack, things to do: 1. Put stealth ship on point for Southern Combat Fleet 2. Upgrade income generation at Malastare and Kashyyyk. 3. Go to Naboo and get a MASSIVE wing of N-1 starfighters. 4. Rebuild ARC and Heavy Weapons losses from defenses at Carida. 5. Get LAAT groups built up at heavy vehicle factories and create an Air Assault Group (infantry and gunships). 6. Check EVERY planet for recruitable jedi, and use in conjunction with special forces (ARC squads and Delta). 7. Secure Mintooine before thwy get the Malevolance. 8. Break through enemy defenses at Trandosha and Mandalore. 9. GET MORE COFFEE!!!

[@ThreezeNiNja]

This

[@MLineups]

Shack better see this

[@FrostFoxMinzer3216]

I found out that in this mod you can have was way more than 10 units in a defense. I literally had over 23 units on dathomir at one point and after it was freed I was able to win most of my invasions with that army. Also the base income for cis is ridiculous. I played as them and was able get just a ridiculous number of the munificient frigates. Oh and beware the mtt it can drop 3 squads of b1s at a time but it can do so until it's destroyed I legit captured coruscant with only mtts and that was with all republic ground heroes on the ground.

[@bathalabautista671]

And dont forget rule No.10-If things get too out of hand and you cant handle it RUNNNNN!!!!!!!! And GET MORE COFFE!!!

[@ScientistMan96]

Shack, the "trick" to the Victories are that they have like 12 shield piercing concussion missile tubes with crazy range, so they are amazing at cracking the shield generator of oncoming capital ships before they hit the gun toting Venator lines, and freeing your bomber wings to oneshot subsystems. Also great for sniping the engines of fleeing ships.

[@tylerjones2815]

Agreed! Shack stop throwing shade on the victory class. keep them and the back and watch them chew up ships.

[@arcataslacker]

That Victory class saved your butt!

[@sgtsmith501]

The one thing that always saddens me in any of his RaW series' is that Shack views training troops from Kamino as useless till Phase 2 troopers are available #Redplatoonisgreat

[@aayush1043]

Sgtsmith it's kinda the exact same thing as two of the green ones forgot what they're called

[@setesh1294]

Reds are companies. I think greens are platoons, and dark blues are squads.

[@GlorifiedShed]

white = standard soldier(cannon fodder), green = sargent, blue = leftennant, red = captain, yellow = commander

[@shamrocksardonic2582]

mr pigron No. They are referring to the portraits for the units, which are denoted with red, green and blue for different unit sizes

[@sethkaos572]

Hey shack. Those heavy clones are from the 2002 Star Wars the clone wars TV series. I believe that's where that chest turret came from

[@aurorathearcticwolf4243]

SethKaos 2003 and yes the quad chest gun is there

[@GlorifiedShed]

Jedi Wolf They fight General Greivous don't they?

[@I3oo1ve]

Yes, they were a group of 12 ARC Lieutenants lead by Captain Fordo.

[@thatonedudewhocantbeorigin3995]

SethKaos yeah there was like a 3 episode ark on them where heavy died☹️

[@brettduffey2009]

Use those stealth ships to sneak past the line and take out hangerbays on lucerhulks

[@Three_Dog_Gaming]

Everyone is saying stealth "SHIPS", as in plural. Can you really build more than one? I can't :(

[@PumpG00se707]

It’s not lucerhulks it’s Donut class ships

[@petesperandio]

The CR-70 corvettes chew up fighters evidently. Having more of them in addition to the Consulars will go a long way to mitigating the fighter spam of the Lucrehulks.

[@aayush1043]

Pete Sperandio cr70's do shoot...

[@petesperandio]

They do?

[@sirpsyco4776]

Pete Sperandio yeah they Do. They Are way Better than Most anti fighter ships

[@petesperandio]

I read a comment from the last video where somebody said the CR-70s were bugged and didn't fire.

[@ackulakan]

It's all I use pretty much. They eat fighters. Dotting them around my venators is so very helpful against the Lucrehulk spam.

[@ThornEinar]

The heavy troopers are from the 2003 "Star wars clone wars"

[@LusoPictures]

Turbolaser-for cruisers frigates and capital ships. Laser cannons- corvettes and fighters

[@matthewwiles1974]

You know he’s gonna go completely power crazy with those imperial star destroyers

[@disguisedfrog1155]

Matthew Wiles He needs to play Fall of The Jedi GC to get ISD's

[@matthewwiles1974]

No, at the end of this one, he found the option to build the ISD at Kuat, and placed the order for it to be built. It in the last minute and of it.

[@matijarasovic1519]

Not sure if the engine is capable of it but the game would be a lot less frustrating if you can give move orders in the galactic map and reorganise fleets while the time is paused, it would make fighting ultra agressive AI berable, might be something you could ask some of the modders to try and make eh Cap?

[@matijarasovic1519]

0jrhindo engine isnt capable of it?

[@BlazeJedi]

Original "ARC" Troopers from the 2003 animated Clone Wars Series!

[@hddbcc3020]

Yay you guys know the old cartoons I am glad I am not alone

[@BlazeJedi]

Yep

[@BlazeJedi]

At least on screen, those were the Alpha Arcs. The old Republic Commando books briefly go over them

[@tracytron7162]

Also am I the only one who wishes the lead ARC in each ARC Squad in this game was duel wielding DC-17's? I mean seriously that just bugs me since one of them has a freaking Z-6 lol

[@scottrichie7836]

Shack don't worry about taking out key systems the AI cheats and doesn't have a build time and they have unlimited money.

[@typhlosion4223]

Scott Richie yeah playing Phoenix rising and the just keep rushing while I’m struggling to make my SD2s. I want this fixed to its balanced. Turns me off from the game.

[@jacobhogan3208]

get tatooine, geonosis, ryloth and hypori that will secure the corellia , kamino and rothana.

[@artheric1]

That was an amazing holding action you did there Captain! Those ARC troopers deserve commendations across the board! My apologies on the last video and suggesting the Hunt mode on fighters, I did not elaborate on when to use it. Hunt mode is great when you start getting stuck in the thick of the fighting, that way even if the fighter squadron kills its target, it continues to move rather than simply sit and wait for its next target to be given to it. Usually sitting in a cloud of buzz droids because they're usually killing swaths of fighters. You used it expertly in the battles today, as your fleet had already identified the targets and the fighters had set about hunting down everything in their way. Keep up the good fight Captain!

[@connornorton3552]

When I finish an episode I can’t wait for the next one. Please keep them coming Capt 😀

[@soldier_6641]

Was having a bad day. This made it better. Thanks captain.

[@alejandrotorcida9607]

The diference of the quad laser batteries, and the laser bateries, are, the quat are for capital ships, and the lasers for light fighters and light ships

[@undeniablelogic1963]

I almost can't wait for the next episode. I am so pumped to see that the Republic has finally been worked into a well oiled fighting machine.

[@tTaseric]

This episode was probably around 15 seconds of actual progress on the Galactic map

[@Jay-fs2nw]

24:20 it wasn’t 3 seconds, it was 2 ;p

[@IronElephantProductions]

ADVICE: the stealth ship has concussion missle launchers and is good against capital ships rather than fighters. It’s also fast, So Id put it in command of whatever fleet it’s in Also it’s from TCW tv show (best show ever)

[@garkon8242]

The Lucrehulk/ Fighter spam really is annoying me. Not that i totaly dislike the Mod, but the balancing is still iffy. And the change with the last patch making reinforcements just hyperspacing in didn't really help. Well, bit over a month if everything works out and we should have the full ICW 2.2 release. Can't wait for that.

[@DCPTF2]

Garkon bitch bitch bitch it ain't OP considering he is still winning

[@garkon8242]

Could you point out where exactly i said its OP? I said it is annoying, nothing more, nothing less. Oh you poor fanboy, how dare I'm not falling 100% in love with this mod.

[@maxim-1700]

The reinforcements have to instantly hyperspace in, because with the other methode there was a bug, that deleted the reinforcement units in the galaxy if you loose them in battle

[@venerablrat56]

Garkon yeah, even if they made it so that the AI didn’t spam less it would be better

[@dragonoidsix]

No need to fear! Captain Shack is Here! And he brought a new video too!

[@kor3480]

i havnt been watchin lets play for months maybe even a year or two. But now im watching all i can of your empire at war stuff. Keep up the good work!

[@wisamshallal5793]

Omg thank you!! you left on completely destroying a group of planets but I was scared of the core world's!

[@comradesniper7507]

Acclamators are the M4 Sherman’s of WW2

[@jakepelletier2955]

WarDaddy '45 good in the beginning but obsolete by the mid part of the war

[@comradesniper7507]

And Providence Class is the Tiger II of WW2

[@RawGrilledCheese]

When captain shack uploads and captain jack uploads #Shack>Jack

[@kaiserwilhelmii6440]

Wet Water Jack>Shack

[@kaiserwilhelmii6440]

His commentary is so cancer

[@funkmantim2661]

idea, start using squads of stealth units to take down the planets which can produce lukerhulks

[@samuelschurman3762]

They're probably fortress worlds honestly. Stealth units just won't cut it.

[@funkmantim2661]

depends, the way they are pumping out lukerhulks, some of their worlds may be lacking, and if a strike team of powerful stealth units can land on the world, take over certain objectives and tower posts, and take out the more problematic factories, they should have a chance.

[@Co_Vesta]

Funk Man Tim any separatist capital shipyard can produce those!

[@funkmantim2661]

......that is so unfair....

[@nathanmorrison8847]

Look the republic are unable to take on the main fleets of the separatists, there are too many fighters and regardless of how much fighter support you have.... theres no way you'll be able to best them in a battle without heavy losses. Now the republic do have superior ground forces and can easily hold planets. My idea shack is if you let them strike the core worlds (except your ship yards) and hold the planets on the ground. Meanwhile, yularen or some other fleets could take the main capital ship producer planets for the separatists. This will weaken their ability to reinforce their fleets in the core worlds. Then take the ground of those planets and hold them. Shack you are a fine admiral and general.... I hope you can use this idea to defeat the separatist scum (btw this is my fav series on yt atm!)

[@dave212]

Sharkie 353 well, once the republic gets enough power if they spam venator in in tech 5 (they get arcs and V wings instead of the shitty v19 and the other bombers as their fighter support) they can destroy with ease any CIS fleet, but he is not nearly as powerful as he should be, so he is having a pretty bad time...

[@nathanmorrison8847]

well this can be the solution until he his able to consolidate his power

[@VarietyDrifter1]

Shack, you've always called it a "Shield Generator" because that is how it is what it is referred to as in (I believe) Empire Strikes Back during the battle of Hoth, but in game it is referred to as a "Power Generator". Just trying to bring it to your attention. I have no intention of being a smart ass (though I admit it may sound that way).

[@fletcherquinlan5825]

I've been waiting for these episodes shack keep them coming PLEASE

[@nomnito2055]

the heavys are from the old clone wars series but called arcs in it (but they look just like them)

[@colresswesker8912]

I'm not sure if my tactics still work but I'll share some of what I did to make it through a V1 campaign. Mass produce hover tanks on your border planets. If the CIS invade one of them, just immediately swarm their reinforcement point with Hover Tanks. They should be fast enough to get to the reinforcement point as they are landing. Back in V1 they could run over infantry. If they can still do that, immediately run over any infantry they spawn instead of shooting at them. At the very least this should slow their advance, and make it harder for them to actually gain planets. Aside from that, I'd suggest using the pause button as much as possible when it comes to building infrastructure and forces. The AI may relentlessly attack you but your biggest advantage is that they cannot do anything while you have the game paused. Unfortunately I think its probably too late in the campaign to do anything about the Lucrehulk spam outside of somehow destroying their capital ship production planets and then waging a war of attrition.

[@TheDrow79]

Shack the point of Victory classes in this mod is heavy torpedo duty. They have ridiculous range and can both siege stations and capital ships as well as fire homing rockets on fighter squadrons. Essential they are a jack of all trade ship that can get around enemy shields.

[@isyldy09]

The trooper carrying the quad gun on his chest is from the original Clone Wars cartoon. It came out after Episode 2 and bridged the gap between that and 3. The new Clone Wars is meant to expand on that show.

[@Caligulathegreat]

A good idea is to have a couple squads of the AT-RT walkers on each planet so every time they invade you can butt rush their starting position and capture their landing zone sine AT-RT's can capture them.

[@x-wingmike]

Shack: Laser canons = anti fighters/bombers Turbolasers (any kind) = Anti Capital ship

[@anthonymolina2979]

When you actually level up to tier 5 I suggest keeping a small number of Clone companies on the ground on your front line planets because your barracks will no longer spawn Infantry

[@qwadfff]

[Intel] 1) The difference between turbolasers and laser cannons is: turbos are anti-capital ships, and lasers are anti-corvette/anti-fighter. 2) You should put more troops on the ground portions of your planets that are in harms way, since you have the cash for it now. (That might be asking too much, I know, since you just discovered Star Destroyers on Kuat).

[@barkley8285]

Food? Check Drink? Check Snacks? Check Republic at war? Check What a time to be alive

[@datboi-hz4xi]

Your emperor commands you to build the Pride of the Core!

[@samuelschurman3762]

Who would win? A democracy spanning over many planets and civilizations looking for peace in the galaxy. One Sithy Boi

[@datboi-hz4xi]

when you become the Senate and learn the tragic story of Darth Plagueis the Wise by heart, especially when it's not a story the Jedi would tell you, anything is possible​

[@shiva_chirr]

ive noticed you have the stealth ship but you never seem to activate its stealth field ever

[@bagpipeboy1001]

I think the plan should be to use Admiral Yularen and Plo Koon to take as many planets as you can down south, while defending the core with Anakin’s fleet, while build up a third fleet. When Yularen is free from the south or a third fleet is built focus and taking over hyperspace lanes as they are what the separatists are using to constantly act you, especially the Corellian Way and the one leading to Carida.

[@MrSHADOWANGEL999]

the state of the galaxy is fire, as everything is on fire

[@kyrontaylor4004]

Commander: We can win, we hold the high ground!!! Sergeant: Sir, We're in the middle of a valley. Commander: We...Hold the moral high ground? Private: oh, that's a load of- Sergeant: WATCH YOUR MOUTH SOLIDER, This is a family friendly massacre!!!.

[@TedTheHobbyist]

Apparently Balance is not in the Mood author's vocabulary.

[@wsckillsu8544]

Shack a planet named saceumi. It is in the eastern reaches. By hand in. Has a nice galactic buff to fighters and corvettes. 25% damage buff. Also raxus prime is good for salvage from when your ships are destroyed.

[@Lechuga1815]

Hey Shack, one tactic ive used to great effect is positioning my fleet behind my upgraded station then destroying them from behind while my station soaks the damage because the shields are very strong.

[@surfsnyper5260]

Tip for space battles use acclamators as carriers not frontline de dense and use the space station or heavy cruiser as frontline defense.this allows for fighters to keep spawning and allow for a fighter screen which protects your frontline

[@avocado9157]

Heavy troopers are from the animated cartoon when they were trying to save five other Jedi from a new foe(General what his name).

[@blinky297]

You're at T5 so if you start pumping out some Venators they'll now be spamming V-wings and ARCs which are way better than the old fighters and bombers. ARCs in large numbers can just run around popping Lucrehulk or space station shield generators which makes life so much easier. Also if you bring an ISD in they can just tank almost anything the CIS can throw at you as long as you give them fighter cover

[@deathlord_]

The heavys are from the original clone wars series when they rescued the jedi from greivous

[@loremasterxp3635]

Trench will be back just like in the Clone Wars series, however it was awesome to take him out of the war for awhile.

[@luckyman3573]

Shack when defending in space you always need to upgrade the space station's weapons that way it can do some decent damage or else it does like nothing to larger ships.

[@firestarter000001]

"You trolling me" I cracked:)

[@redstromesoup6563]

Those heavy squads are from the star wars the clone wars 2d animated 2003 movie, they are from the arc squad that attacks grevious and takes the injured jedi back to croissant

[@Sephiroth144]

You gotta upgrade the weapons on the stations; you get the reinforcement maxed, but leave the weapons/armor/etc at the base level, instead of getting solid percentage damage/HP increases...

[@HenT8991]

Captain Shack...please please use all of those Clone Legions..not because they're the most practical but just because they look cool. And KEEP those Imperial Star Destroyers well supported. We dont want to leave those babies alone against a whole fleet.

[@BenSuzuki]

OMG you just pulled a Anakin in The Clone Wars with Admiral Trench.

[@grantmeyer6269]

Shack, you can get infantry under those guns. Rush those turrets and destroy them with infantry.

[@Alpha_Astartes]

The Heavy ARC Troopers are from Genndy Tartakovsky's 2003 Star Wars: Clone Wars animated series.

[@gideonmiles7161]

Shack those At-pts (the pod walkers) are in the base game and have made apperencees in almost every mod you've played and you have atleast twiced noticed for the first time playing this campaign for the first haha the squrriel is strong in this one

[@HenT8991]

They really should upgrade the fighter compliment for Aclamators. Those V 19s should have been phased out by tech 4 at least. Plus V-wings and Arcs are just so much cooler and deserve more screen time.

[@reaperfellsans8478]

I would like to request that shack builds ships again, like the arwuintins and the venetors

[@noanisse]

The separatists make alot of credits from Geanosis, if the AI doesn't cheat that should be a place to focus your forces on

[@TheR423r]

The AI does cheat, alot. escpecially on any difficulty other than easy. The biggest problem is that this mod is utterly stupid with the amount of buzzdroids all over the place, they really need to restrict who can drop how many.

[@samuelschurman3762]

I though of an idea to fix this kinda. Make the ones with buzzdroids a seperate unit that the cis get's a limited amount of. Either that or just give them to the tri-droids.

[@TheR423r]

Tri-Droids and maybe the bombers, but every fighter getting 2 drops of buzzdroids just leads to republic fighters getting chewed way too fast, besides on the Clone wars animated tv show it was shown pretty clearly that buzzdroids were usually only carried by the big CIS ships.

[@basicyapper697]

One tip i can give is to stop building the laser cannon anti fighter platforms in space, build the missile platforms, they can kill a squad of fighters in one shot because of splash

[@ant.ng0]

[Advice] Shack u should build the space casino over Malastare and Vespine and any other worlds that can build it for the extra cash

[@mrsupreme5316]

Woooo!! Finally, the tech upgrade!

[@reaperfellsans8478]

Also, the victories are long range and like space atillery and as a bonus they have missles

[@maggiedavis2162]

"What could have possibly happened since I last spoke with you?"

[@TristanDproductions]

Awesome!! I gust finessed Ep 13!! I am soooo happy!!

[@darthplagueis13]

You really need to reposition that one turbo laser turret on corellia. It´s of no use where it is because it can´t fire up.

[@robmartin525]

Those lasers come in spawned at those locations, they do not occupy plots that you can move

[@detsalb5789]

the heavy clone troopers are from the 2000 clone wars series i remember it because of the quad blaster on the clones chest

[@loremasterxp3635]

Victories are better for sieges and act as space artillery thus meaning you need to not use them as front line vessels and instead keep them at the back of your fleets, also they fire concussion missiles which don't pierce shields so you need your front line vessels or bombers to take down the enemy vessel shields before they can deal their max amount of damage.

[@deeznuts5350]

I love u shack. You make life worth living. XD.

[@notthed0d791]

The planet that you last defended malistare can build a space casino which will greatly increase your profit margins

[@ShadowGaming-md2sd]

from what i've found the victorys are just long range space artilary since their shields and armour sucks

[@oweirevan2061]

after the tech upgrade, the Venators started spamming arcs, and they victory classes were getting v-wings

[@mariusbakken8011]

Your videos come out when im sleeping

[@mariusbakken8011]

Im sad now

[@spencerbergstrom9848]

turbolasers are for capital ships, laster cannons are for fighters and corvetts

[@MrArbiter103]

The mod authors need to make the CIS less hyper agressive. I understand you are looking for a challenge, but you didn't get a chance to do anything. If they won't make the CIS less agressive, then they should at least let give orders while the game I'd paused

[@DCPTF2]

MrArbiter103 ever played as the CIS wait of course not the Republic is just as aggressive and far more powerful

[@MrArbiter103]

DCP ok so then that needs patching as well. Games are good when they are challenging, not when they actively work against you. Also to address your complaint about me not playing the CIS, I confess I have not played this mod, but I have put a few hundred hours into the Base game

[@erikmarshall1652]

Shack says I'm going to be aggressive in this episode but first half of the episode is all about defending

[@aidanleahyleahy1529]

Fun fact did you guys know in a book on Star Wars the rebel’s has a first attempt on the Death Star and they used a lucrehulk they captured and launched 500 x wings but failed because they thought the Death Star was un-operational

[@battlefieldnoscope8361]

Shack when you get to tech 5 build the big clone divisions

[@MandalorV7]

The pain with buzz droids playing as the CIS is that using them is a heavy micro thing to do.

[@spaceking_9184]

clone:the droids want win without a ten to one advantage me:THATS EVER FUCKING DAY

[@collinparker375]

Developers need to fix that, the constant battles

[@kelemvour]

As long as you use Hunt close to the enemy they don't go all over... It's when you use it when they have no enemies in sight that they go all over the map...

[@jaydenwood2591]

The heavy clones are from the original 2003 clone wars mini series

[@fallentanith]

I started as a Imperial Conscript in X3, it was a very slow start until i got my Springblossom.

[@patricks7084]

Keep this campaign to the end be a mam take the challenge please

[@arizonakid4769]

Shack, they are like fordo's rescue team on hypori from 2003 the clon wars animated series

[@rayisawsome11]

the ability the victory's have when it's used drains like half of its shields and it seems they have decent health just not against mobs of fighters or when they fight lucre hulks by themselves

[@wolfbounddrawolf]

Don't forget you can build arcs to yea I think its time for a little payback

[@digitalplayz1315]

Shack put victories at the back there spouse to be like artillery and put your venators at the front to take they can take a beating

[@patrickvarga7789]

Shack you can build three star destroyers and they are amazing get them and the pride of the core you will kill everything

[@sami300war]

The heavy clone trooper squad was first seen in the 2005 clone wars cartoon

[@wolfman4723]

Shack check yourself on i think it was malastare at the 1:09:31 minute mark you can build an income facility in the space over that planet

[@cristianbarbosa3179]

thoes heavy look like the starwars animated series insted of clone wars

[@lightheartedsol8281]

Late comment: Stop making the Victory-Class seem like to does you no good, they're AMAZING. XD anyways love you're videos Shack
