now their Martian pilot will be replaced with another Earther, and additionally another and not just any Earther, but the daughter of an Earther who killed 100 000 Belters on Eros, got added to their crew..so much for "unity" for that matter, not to mention that even before this the Roci wasn't welcomed on Mars, neither the Belt, and that's why they did all their supply, resupply, service, maitenance on Earth-owned Tycho run by an Earther, or on Luna, and so much for "an independent" ship for that matter..

"I'm putting us into a spin!" Bull said. What an amazing move and what a fantastic scene when the Rocci's PDC's opened up and took out all the torpedoes. One of my favorite moments in the whole series!

"this is the war ship Rocinante..."

I can't believe we got a call out to the Barba Picola scene and no mention using the freakin rail gun to stay in orbit

In the final engagement you described you didn't mention how the Roci fired missiles at the Razorback not to destroy it but to escort it protecting the Razorback against further missile attacks, clear tactical thinking from the mind of someone well trained in the UN Navy underscored by what you then went on to describe.

I'd love to be able to experience IFF for the first time again. That was such an amazing episode and that sequence was unlike anything we'd seen in scifi before. Using their missiles as "escort" for the Razorback, using the blast from missiles to intercept incoming missiles targeting the Razorback but her own PDC's for anything thrown at them, using EMP to blind the enemy at just the right moment and best of all the Roci isn't racing anywhere. She's literally tapping the breaks and allowing the Razorback and the UNN ship to catch up instead of the stereotypical punch the throttle and swoop in to the rescue like it's a WW2 dogfight. Have to say though the Roci vs Pella one ups it. The book does a better job at conveying it but it still comes through on the show that Bobbie wasn't just shooting where the Pella would be. She was creating a circumstance that would have the Pella move to where she WANTED it to be for the PDC rounds to be there to hit them in the face. Pella saw the missiles coming in, knew the rail gun would be fired but didn't expect the PDC's to be a threat so missed it. Love how the show didn't wreck it with exposition and just let it play out though letting us figure it out for ourselves. The Expanse did an amazing job with theses action sequences. Most of them you know exactly where everyone is in relation to each other and even those times where it's a "wtf? Where'd that come from?", quick rewind and watch a little closer and the answers there. So many tiny details going on too, imo it's going to be a long time for anyone to reach the bar The Expanse left

I would rank Uncle Mateo's ice hauler SCIF, rock tow cable sling shot at the MCRN Patrol Destroyer towards the top. The ice projectiles nearly destroyed the Martians.

By that point in the show the Donnager was policing the belt against pirates with her Fleet of 2 Morrigan Class Destroyers and 2 Corvette Class Frigates, she was the mothership just there to refuel, resupply and rearm them so she was not exactly at max strength when she was attacked plus much like the crew themselves nobody thought there was anything or anyone powerful or crazy enough to challange the Martian Navy Flagship let alone beat the biggest baddest battleship in the system, so probably they had no Goliath Armours ready and charged when they were attacked.

The Scirocco-class is a dedicated troop carrier while the Donnager is not. The Scirocco has breaching pods and boarding skiffs and is designed for putting troops into battle. The Donnager is designed to pummel the enemy in space. It makes sense the former would be more likely to have a contingent of force recon marines.

I like how the "most replayed" portion of the video is the very end of the raid shadow legends plug xD

The real science that powers this show is the absolute star, in my book!

Great video! You highlighted it in your best damn space pirate video, the Tynan attack on Marco Inaros was pretty damn solid. I LOVE that the expanse does space battle so well. However, I have to agree with you on the number 1, it is definitely not talked about enough!

What slips most people's memories is that the Donnager destroyed four of the Amon-Ra class ships before they got close enough to launch breaching pods. We also have no indication that the remaining two frigates were able to escape the blast when Capt. Yao scuttled the Donnie.

I would add Bobbie's kick flip against the Pella and Bull's Spin-o-rama against the Zmeya.

They were all good!

THANK YOU for the first place!

Epic!

With the donnager battle you missed that their lack of effective pdc cover led to them losing 2 ships to missiles

Brilliant video as always, though I never need a break from your visage: that is always a welcome gift.

@dokkatoo1894

You are just flat out wrong 1. The battle with the Zmeya At first glance, you seem to have a point, there's no way the Roci could destroy such a large volley of torpedoes and come out relatively unscaved. To this I have three rebuttals. The first of which being the immaculate technology put in place by the MCRN. The MCRN has the best PDC tracking systems in the entire system, even the UNN's PDC's cannot even compare to the MCRNs. Point number two is the type of torpedoes being fired at the Roci. Those missiles were belter missiles, those of which being the worst type of missiles in the entire system, bad avoidance systems and are far outclassed by their counterparts. MCRN pdcs can easily take down a volley of shitty belter torpedoes with no issue. "But you can only take down so many, there were to many for the Roci to handle". This brings me to point three, if you look at the positioning of the torpedoes fired from the Zmeya, they essentially line up 1 after the other for the Roci to destroy. Its a lot easier for a ship to kill 15 torpedoes on at a time then 15 torpedoes at the same time. In this case, they all came at the Roci pretty much one at a time. If they had all Zerg rushed the Roci at the same time, it might've been a different story. 2. The Free Navy Battle This one is even easier to rebuttal then the first one. It is shown in the show that the Holden and Bull thought that this battle was going to be the end for them. And if Drummer hadn't switched sides, it would've been. (To be fair, there is a zero percent chance that Drummer would kill Holden). Keep in mind, the Roci is equipped with light keel mounted railgun that can shred smaller ships at close range, (which we see in the battle). The battle begins with Drummers faction basically switching sides, this turns the 1v5 into a 4v2 which is already good enough. The Tynan fired its missiles at the Koto which allowed the Roci to come in close with the railgun and that was. Thats not plot armor thats just good strategy and common sense. For the serrio mal, the Roci and the Serrio mal exchanged one small volley which both ships can easily destroy, then another one of Drummers faction fires on the Serrio mal which allows the Roci to get in close with the railgun which is game over. You may say, its plot armor for drummers faction to switch sides, its just not. Drummer would never kill Holden if she could decide not to. She could never do that to Naomi, plus not to mention this betrayal had been building up all season. Its not plot armor, the two battles are entertaining and realistic in the bounds of the universe and its characters. Also I dont know what production errors you're talking about, the battle is gorgeous, with subtle details of scientific accuracies. The Expanse has and still does have the best battles in sci fi, they become more and more realistic as you know more about the universe itself.

In the final example, when the Roci blew the engines off the UNN a ship, they used two rail gun shots, not missiles. The idea of the attack was to blind the UNN ship with the nukes. Presumably the Roci shielded its sensors for the moment of the blast. However, if this were possible, it would have been used decades ago in other battles. A warship would have redundant sensors that would come online immediately. Though the Roci had sent about 6 missiles so if the detonations were timed right they could take out the backups as well. And the UNN ship should have been able to launch a swarm of missiles even after losing its engines, and killed the Roci. At the end Jim says they’re down to 10% of PDC rounds, could not have got them all.

nope, he used Martian torpedoes. The Roci never had a railgun at that point - in fact Alex never once got to fire the railgun against live opponents, he fired once when he blew up a moon and a few times when he used the railgun as a thruster. He fired a load of Martian torpedoes towards the heavy cruiser, and exploded the plasma warheads of the Martian torpedoes just out of PDC range. No-one expected him to use the explosion as a screen, there was nothing wrong with the sensors on the UNN cruiser, they just had nowhere near enough time to react and fire when then Roci came through, and as you seem many times in the series, an engine hit pretty much always causes a power overload forcing you to shut down then restart the reactor - even the Donnager suffered this. Thats why they could not fire back. The Roci and Razorback will have hauled ass before the UNN cruiser could start up again.

The only reason Alex didn't make it in the MCRN is that standard issue MCRN underwear isn't up to the job.

20G is not speed, it's acceleration.

The ridiculous thing about the Donnager is that a couple of frigates seem to have more marines than a massive battleship. There also don’t appear to be some means of defending against boarders

The Donnager is one hell of a battle ship, but they didn't thought that someone was going to board them, while the attacking frigattes prepared for this. They knew that their only chance was to board the Donnager, so they filled their ships with infantry.

@@TN-lz8qs just speaks of Martian overconfidence. And it’s not like they don’t have enough people. Isn’t the Martian population something like 9 billion? As ridiculous as it sounds for a planet without a breathable atmosphere. Or at least add automated systems to fight off or delay boarders

@@artembentsionov Yes that's really weird, if you have such a ship, why don't you just install some kind of pdc(not that big but you know what I mean) at the entry of the bridge, the Maschine deck and the reactor control room. The population is about 4 billion.

You haven't mentioned how Naomi set Chetskoka onto a spiralling course. You won't believe the number of muppets who think such maneuvre is impossible in absence of atmosphere.

I’m not quite sure on that manoeuvre. It is possible but very very difficult to pull off and everything has to be lined up perfectly

Alex dying to a god damn aneurysm was so not cash money
