I 100% agree

It's worth mentioning that the larger variant of the Providence would actually be 8x the size of the standard version. If it is about exactly double the dimensions of the standard variant, then it is 2x the length, 2x the height, and 2x the width, for a total of 8x the overall size/volume (2x2x2). If I remember the math right, this also means it had 4x the surface area of the standard Providence, meaning 4x the space to mount weapons and such. With 8x the volume, that's potentially 8x the fighter/bomber complement, and 8x the ground troop complement of a regular Providence. Plus, since it would have 4x the surface area but 8x the volume, that means that the designers could have packed 4x as many weapons, shield generators, etc onto the hull, but 8x as much power generation to power it all, meaning that it would have proportionately double the available power for each of those systems compared to the smaller version, which would make the up-sized Providence significantly deadlier than "4x the weaponry" would imply, and significantly tougher than "4x the shield generation capacity" would suggest. The upscale Providence Dreadnought would truly be a BEAST of a warship, one that would almost certainly be at least a match for an Imperator-I in a one-on-one slugging match, if not superior to that later design.

This is literally my favourite ship type in Star Wars, I loved watching through this video!

I would definitely want one of these as my flagship. Whether I'm a Separatist Commander or Rebel commander, this is the ship for me. Though if I was the ladder, I probably have to salvage one or steal it

I respect admiral trench for just accepting his loss

Excellent vid, but hey, uh, I've heard that Established Titles is a scam, you should look into it. Some creators even made apology videos after they were sponsored by them 😬

The larger variant of the providence would definitely be my flagship of choice, hands down. It’s just so good in every aspect from weapons, having plenty of weapons and lots of variety, to a huge amount of battle droid storage and fighter storage, plus you can have fighters on the outside as-well as extra fighters or extra point defence. And with the insane speed and strong durability it’s just such a good all around ship with no real weakness that packs a very strong punch

I had an idea for a modified version of this ship for my Star Wars faction “the lost separatist” called the capsule ship. Basically the front area of the ship was hollowed out and replaced with large racks of vulture, hyena, or tri fighters. The main hanger was where they would have landed and automated arms would pick them up and rerack them.

That's debatable. The clones were originally basically meat droids and the droids were more sentient then you expect. It was always meant to be a both sides are bad because they're both manipulated by sidious, but of course TCW ruined that. They both were slaves, the only difference being what they're made of. I think TCW would've done better if they kept everything consistent with the movies and if there's been a plot line about anakin being against the clones (ex slave, TCW treated him like an action hero with anger issues) but learning that they don't really have any individuality or free will, only really seeing that in commandos and to an extent ARCs

The Providence Class dreadnought of the Separatist Navy is a very unique design. However I can see that the observation deck on the spire at the aft section of the vessel can be used as a secondary bridge helm. That can be used as both a shuttle and emergency escape ship. 😮

A beautiful ship design.

About the attacks on medical facilities, that sort of thing (destroying logistics and swiftly hammering soft targets, not war crimes) are actually what things like battleships were mainly intended for. Even the existence of ship-to-ship battles is just a side-effect of each side trying to attack and defend their logistics, not the actual purpose of a warship.

My 3rd favorite CIS ship

This really is a perfect warship.

Providence class is a magnificent ship, 100% my top favorite ship from Star wars

A beautiful spacecraft.

It's a shame there are no Clone Wars media where you actually see these ships use their underwater "submarine mode" in battles. Considering how many torpedoes, a Providence-Class Dreadnought had, it would probably make mincemeat out of mostly all Republic ships that tried to take it on in an underwater battle. It's in my opinion a bit of a missed opportunity that in the Clone Wars show, during the Battle of Mon Kala that the Quarren (later CIS occupation forces after the Quarren getting dooped was revaled) did not have any underwater warships on their side. It would have been quite interesting to see how the Republic dealt with something like that - That during the heat of battle a bunch of CIS ships came screaming in to make a dive for the ocean, with one smashing into the Venator that brought the Gungan backup to just sink it flat out by kamikazing it for good measure, while the others go underwater to join the CIS occupation forces. (Noting here - Why aren't we shown cases of the CIS using their droid operated ships in desperate moments as giant ballistic missiles? If you have Republic ships down in atmosphere mostly stationary, and the battle for space supremacy seems lost, with retreat either only possible in limited ability/is not possible, a CIS commander has nothing to lose in ordering some of their ships to act as a sort of very large"rods from the gods" type battering ram. Heck, they could even get desperately brave, and just order a ship to pull in essence a hyperspace ram where the ship jumps down towards the planet aimed at a Republic ship, and then the ship gets pulled out of hyperspace by the mass shadow of the ship/planet thus reverting it to real space, but keeping momentum to make interception/dodging harder. Even accounting for if atmospheres interferes with the full functionality, it would, I suppose be worth it to just tell the droids operating it to go for it to see what happens if all Sith hit the fan. At the very least, it would cause some panic and disarray as debris rains down if the ship gets close enough to the area it's aimed at. Even if ships can dodge, infantry on the ground sure cant. Got a clone force advancing with an annoyingly hard to kill Jedi leading em? Time to do a battlefield decommission, and drop a warship onto them if orbital bombardment aint an option. For some of the Jedi, considering how ridiculously good they are at surviving situations, bombing em from orbit seems like worth a shot when other things fail. A fried continent or two is worth some of the heavy hitter Jedi dead, aint it?)

“ Not to worry we are still flying half a ship”.
