That's no drone, that's my wife!
>>65103113I feel like Vulture droids were severely under utilized for CAS. Imagine you're a clone trooper about to overrun a CIS planet, and then all of a sudden flying BMPs start showing up decimating what little light armored support you have.

Prequel trilogy vehicle designs are so fucking good.
>a combat droid that has morale programmed into it, which is usually cowardly>the transmissions sent by the control ship have a limited range and hostile ships can simply sit outside that coverage and not be attacked>the transmissions from the control ship can be spoofed, allowing hostile ships to interfere with its operation>loses to basically all its peers
Being a kid is liking the clones because "Oh wow proto-Stormtroopers, Star Destroyers, walkers, etc."Being an adult is liking the CIS because you recognize their unique designs, their economic & industrial power, and because you respect the leaders who tard-wrangled the whole thing.

>>65103156They're great until you read the retarded lore that says they only have 35min of operation time. It's like the CIS hover tank having a top speed of only 35mph.
>>65103487Free and independent thinker. Roger, roger.
>>65103288>something something sabotoged by Palpatine because of his ultimate keikaku>>65103499what droid is bottom left?
>>65103531A-Series Assassin Droid
>>65103499>magnaguardsFuck those were annoying to fight inbRepublic Commando. Really gave you a sense of how powerful jedi and sith are compared to regular ass people. Obi Wan and Anakin can cut them down like nothing, but it takes your entire squad working together to have a chance against two.
>>65103531Makes sense with that reveal, they were never supposed to be a real threat to the republic, they were only supposed to look like one long enough for Sheev to trick all the senators into extending and expanding his emergency powers. Once that was done he needed something he could just pull the plug on and sweep under the rug.
>>65103499>By your command
>>65103785Republic Commando was such a good game. I should replay it sometime.
>>65103495The Clone wars were barely on the level of the Actual civil war most of the time. Sometimes way, way behind the ACW. A WW1 fighter with 35 minutes of operation time would be a big advantage in a world where most armies could be beaten by fucking George Washington.
>>65104618Everything being a bullet sponge will ruin it for you. Better to keep the good memories
Which type of SW droid would be the most useful for the military today?I'd say those guys. Powerful, tireless, scary, hard to kill, no fear and no remorse, and barely less itelligent than your average marine, the perfect infantry

>>65103113How do you get inside?
>>65103499soulsoullessmental illness
>>65104843I'd say the b1 because it can operate special weapons like recoilless rifles and drive vehiclesb2 is limited by whatever you make for it specifically to usebeing fearful, the b1 is able to preserve its life for a more effective attack later onb2 would just die like a retard
>>65104837You're probably missing most of your shots because you aren't using the ADS the game doesn't tell you it has.
>>65105021B1 has questionable accuracy and reflexes. If those weren't at issue I would prefer them for weight of numbers and being able to occupy a large area that is supported by combined arms and their ability to throw hand grenades has a lot of merit for trench clearing and urban operations. But I am wary that they seem to disassemble from force pushes and human unarmed melee strikes.Droidika have great ground mobility and suppressive fire from behind an energy shield. I would want them as a team machinegunner as my base of fire and casualty causer. I think they can roll up and down stairs too, so their mobility is probably in the acceptable range.Honestly the current tech of quadcopter and ground vehicle with a machine gun or grenade launcher turret is quite good. It really just needs some better onboard AI for target recognition and tracking, navigation and some executive functions.
Command post status?
>>65105542Just like the simulations
>>65103499The speeder bike lancers are pants on head retarded for a setting like Star Wars (beyond say an underdeveloped alien race like the Tuskens or Gungans) and I don't know how anyone can take Genndywars seriously because of shit like them
>>65105542>>65105739WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS
>>65105542THE ENEMY HAS CAPTURED ANOTHERRRR COMMAND POST
>>65105748No one takes Gennedy wars seriously; one of the CIS super weapons is literally just a giant fuckoff stomper piston. Genndy is just very good at visual design and selling spectacle, and he understands how to have characters shut the fuck up for five minutes and just do what they need to get done, which sets him head and shoulders over a bunch of directors even if he's completely without restraint.
>>65104857I feel like there's a pun or something in this pic that im not getting. Why is the vulture alt-girled up?
>>65105867An offshoot of the DJ battle droid meme that was going around last year
>>65105843>No one takes Gennedy wars seriouslyReally? Because every other board on this site seems to think it's a gift from God with how hard they glaze it, at least compared to TCW
>>65106333I will always hold it up as better because it doesn't make Dooku look like a fucking nutcracker.
>>65105748>shitting on hover bike landers[ANGRY ELDAR NOISES]
>>65106333>with how hard they glaze it,other boards aren't too invested in how realistic the battles are, lightsabers aren't exactly a realistic weapon for interstellar civs in the first place even for super monks with precog, too much shit it couldn't block
>>65106333I think anon means in the sense that it shouldn't be taken as a deadly serious work intended to portray a grounded or realistic take on the setting. Which is distinct from if it's good or not.
>>65106333I didnt say it was bad. I said it wasn't serious. People LIKE IT for the reasons I said earlier; Genndy is good at over the top spectacle and is smart enough to realize that sometimes you only need 1-2 complete sentences in an episode instead of filling the runtime with useless blabbering. It's like Megas XLR. No one takes Megas XLR seriously but that doesn't mean they don't like it. The show itself just isn't serious.
>>65105748To be fair, the Separatists were already losing the battle at that point and getting desperate. The (((Banking Clan))) already wasn't known for its military acumen.>Durge, we've already lost 90% of our AATs because we're fucking ork-tier retards who can't into air defense, what do we do?>We have a warehouse full of impounded speeder bikes and some IG droids with an outdated OS installed, just program them to charge the Republic's forces head-on!As to why Kenobi chose to meet them with his own clone troopers mounted on speeder bikes instead of just having LAATs vaporize them from above, well you got me on that one.>>65105843>one of the CIS super weapons is literally just a giant fuckoff stomper piston.re. some piece of mining equipment that was repurposed and billed as wunderwaffen because the CIS military was almost entirely comprised of in-house corporate security, private military companies, and planetary militias amalgamated into a single force and presumably plagued with incompatible equipment and overlapping command structures
>>65105021The B1 cant hit a standing target at fifteen yards consistently.
>>65108367They're trying their best! Okay?
>>65103113>they look like us nowI wish.
