The increadible Battle for Sol in Mass Effect 3 demonstrates why I hate the Battle of Exogol despite them being very similar in concept. The combined fleets in ME were put together after months of diplomacy, fierce fighting, planning and co-ordination. So the pay-off from seeing the results of your dozens of hours in game, is amazing. Very satisfying. The 'Galaxy Fleet' in RoS on the other hand was basically put together in an afternoon and brought in as a completely unbelievable shock reveal. Just feels hollow.

Technically, by 20th Century large navy standards (USN, RN, IJN) a division of ships is 2-5; a squadron is two or more divisions; a flotilla is two or more squadrons; a fleet is two or more flotillas for about 32+ ships. By 18th-19th Century standards a “full” fleet had three squadrons, the Van(guard), the Center, and the Rear(guard) commanded by a Vice (Van) Admiral, an Admiral, and a Rear Admiral, usually with about 4-8 ships under the direct command of each, for about 12-24, although there might only be two squadrons (and admirals, of various grades). Suffren’s “fleet” in the Indian Ocean was really nothing more than a squadron of about 4-8 ships-of-line. Public knowledge has plummeted so badly in the last 50 years that even reporters (who should know better) have taken to calling anything gray that floats a “battleship” and more than one a “fleet”. Science fiction and space fantasy have perverted terms out of all recognition with the label “battlecruiser” slapped on ships haphazardly with little awareness that such a ship was fast, heavily armed and WEAKLY protected. Star Wars perverted the term “destroyer” from an escort (“torpedo boat destroyer”) into a capital ship. The term “dreadnought” has lost all meaning as well, having originally meant a capital ship with a uniform armament of the heaviest weapons available with no intermediate sized weapons between that calibre of weapon and purely defensive armament. Post-WW2 glorification, and historical misinterpretation of Taranto, Pearl Harbor and Kuantan has also imbued the term with an air of obsolescence that belies the fact that these ships were the ne plus ultra of the early 20th Century. Also lost is the fact that at Kuantan and even as late as 1944-1945 it was taking the effort of an entire fleet of carriers to bring down the largest modern ships of the type. Taranto and Pearl Harbor proved nothing other than any ship of any type can be sunk at anchor or at pierside, especially if taken by surprise. Kuantan proved 80 peasants could overwhelm 2 knights…especially if the knights were armed only with daggers and the peasants with spears, which would be a fair analogy for the relative effectiveness of the two capital ships AA in the battle…which distinctly contrasted with the AA firepower of modern American battleships less than a year later.

You’re completely misunderstanding the carrier vs. battleship matchup. The fact it takes a ridiculous amount of aircraft to sink battleships is irrelevant because the battleship can only defend itself and has basically no offensive capability against an aircraft carrier, simply because it can’t get close enough to open fire. THAT is why battleships are obsolete and why carriers rendered them obsolete. Surviving is not the same thing as actually doing your job. Your peasants vs. armoured knights analogy is misleading for that reason: what it ACTUALLY shows is that armoured knights vs. Peasants armed with long-range weapons and horses of their own will at best result in the armoured knights surviving but without being able to kill any of the peasants.

In the sci-fi Pentalogy I'm writing, I am relatively picky about my terminology for groups of ships, and ranks. Of course, some of my definitions of smaller ships (scouts & corvettes are a little squishy), but I am fairly picky also about the naming convention for different levels of ships. (If you know the naming convention, you could see the name of a ship and know whether it is a battleship, cruiser, destroyer or other)

Loved it. Nice someone finally put this together. I still say that the Babylon 5 one is the best. "If you value your lives, be somewhere else!" ,..maybe you had to be there when it first aired. I was :P😃❤ Also always loved that Stargate Atlantis one too.

Coolest Star Trek tng moment ever was when the enterprise is met by Romulan war birds and Picard asked if they were prepared to die today as the Klingons de cloak and are surrounding them. Such an amazing moment.

@7:10 For all its many flaws, this moment, this single beat, was the peak of the sequel trilogy. The most meaningful, important and beautiful thing it had to say. "There are more of *us* ." "They have no navy." "It's not a navy sir, it's just...people."

An interesting comparison here. Serenity had a 40 million dollar budget (and spent 39 million of it), a year of production time, and has at least a dozen different ship types in clear view. The Rise of Skywalker, with a 400+ million dollar budget, 2 years, and a fanbase with scads of high resolution ship designs they'd gladly sell rights to use, had to reuse assets for the primary enemy ships (old Imperial 1's scaled 50% bigger because they made a model for Rogue 1), and extensively copy pasted ships to fill out the count, including ships that made no sense but they had models for, like Han's cargo hauler, and kept most of them at arms length.

Going into this, I hope there is the Shipmaster scene from Halo. "They outnumber us 3 to 1!", followed by, "Then it is an even fight."

Some of the Battlestar Galactica remake space battles deserve a mention too. Some great fleet reveals in that when the Cylons appear and launch their attacks!

Ah, yes, #9: An awesome fleet capping off the season only to be shown blown to smithereens in the opening of the next episode. Always gets a laugh out of me every time I watch it.

"And then we make the Dominion sorry they ever set foot in the Alpha Quadrant." Best line of the entire series, followed up by the second best line: "Cadet, you took the words right out of my mouth."

Serenity is the Star Wars movie we deserved from that era.

A great list, really enjoyed watching this. thank you :)

Sure, but those weren't new. Palps had been building a fleet of 10k ships that used designs that were basically obsolete by the original trilogy already. Someone well in the know of things said that the production used the 3D models built for Rogue One to cut costs.

Man the Dominion War had so many awesome battles. And that ME3 arrival is nuts for how many flashes just keep going in the back. All of these were awesome.

Good list, but personally,. the Lower Decks sequence, which had heart to it, is FAR better than the Rise of Skywalker sequence which was just big for the hell of it.

I think that what makes a fleet arrival scene meaningful is when you're not expecting it, or there's lots of emotion/meaning behind it. Now I'm a Star Trek guy myself, but my top arrival would probably be the galaxy fleet arriving at Exogol followed by the Cali Class ships protecting the USS Cerritos. I like how in the first one, the galaxy essentially bands together and stops living in fear of the empire to confront them and save the day, while in the latter the Cali classes (which were due to be mothballed and generally seen as being low powered, low-tier starships) arrived to show that their true strength lies in the bond the crews have as a ship class (which was slowly built up over the seasons while also setting up the Cerritos to be the hero of the ship class), so the fact that everyone came in to save the Cerritos at that moment was pretty meaningful from a story telling standpoint, and unexpected from an audience standpoint.

The final showdown between Vorlon and the Shadows as pretty fucking epic. You had two of the most advanced species running head to head at each other. Only for the League of Worlds to tell them to fuck off out of here. When the Shadows or the Vorlons went to attack the flag ship that held the Captain of B5 on it. The league ships would suicide their ships to protect him. So while it isn't so much a fleet arriving as it is a completely underpowered fleet. Stepping up to the two strongest fleets in the galaxy. Telling to get bent.

We did earth kicked the shit out of that species to the point they went extinct. A couple of years later. Earth forces ran into the species known as the Minbari. Who did not fuck with other species and let them do their own thing. Well Minbari warrior cast has tradition they follow. They like to show strength in greeting. They opened up all their gun ports in a show of strength. The earth ship it had encountered took it as a threat. Earth opened fire. So Earth opens fire they end up killing the Minbari leader Dukat. If you know that name Star Trek used it too. Just google DS9 copying B5 there is a whole problem. Anyway so they killed Dukat well yup they killed the Minbari leader. Not only was he their leader he was the leader of the religious cast. The final vote to go to war with Earth was the lady seen here. She voted with kill them all. Which is what the Minbari did. At first they hit everywhere humans were. Eventually they stopped hitting colonies and just focused on going to Earth. Their plan was to hit Earth destroy their main support for the military and circle back and wipe the rest out. The plan worked they pushed the military all the way back to Earth. In which they called on everyone. Military, civilian and merchants. If you had a ship if you were brave. Hold the line till we can get as many survivors as we can get off the world before they arrive. The battle of the line happened. Some plot device shit goes down. Don't want to spoil it as it is major plot element to one of the characters. The minbari surrender. Earth gets a big ego about itself. Fast forward years later. After number of the peace stations known as the Babylon project failed either destroyed or vanished. B5 was made and succeeded. Second season rolls around. The Minbari picked the commander of the space station the first time. When he was called to the Minbari homeworld to be a diplomat. Earth wasn't playing around and appointed a new commander a captain. This captain happened to be the only captain to ever destroy and get a victory in the Earth Minbari war. So they assumed homeboy hates the Minbari and is totally loyal to Earth. Well he is loyal to Earth just that he believes in freedom. So when Earth broke off from its values and became a dictatorship. This captain told Earth to go fuck itself. So the Minbari who need the space station for a war that is coming. Tells Earth to go fuck itself too and step up if they think they can.

Not a fleet per se, but an honorable mention should have gone to when the NSEA-Protector was dragging mines in Galaxy Quest. Love that scene!

The only FLEET I disagree with was the 3rd fleet; Separatists & Republic Fleets did not "arrive", they were "INTRODUCED", as they had long since arrived and were fully engaged as we all can fully see. Just my opinion. However, this was an awesome sequence, and I can find no flaw with the order either. A missed honourable mention though could have included the WhiteStar fleet going up against the Drahk

Alright. I did managed to predict the number 1 on this one. I always think about the bad guy losing it "somebody fire!". Thought that was amusing.

Whether people thought it was a sub-par movie or not, and while not technically a reveal/arrival, I'm a huge fan of the final fleet scene in the Ender's Game movie.

. LOL! Serenity! Wish they weren't canceled ❤❤❤❤ .

I have to mention because I would hate myself if I didn't the arrival of the wave motion gun fleet in space battleship Yamato 2202 during the battle of Saturn and I also just for fairness the arrival of the Gamilan fleet a little while later at I think earth itself or maybe it was mars. I can't remember off the top of my head which defense line they were at but most likely it was mars.

A good honorable mention addition would have been the episode in Star Trek "Strange New Worlds" where Kirk effectively mimics a fleet of hundreds of ships.

Good list

My favorite was when the entire Rohirrim fleet came in to attack the Uruk-Hai assault ships invading the Gondor system. Then my next favorite is when they maneuvered to face the much more formidable mercenary Haradrim Dreadnought flotilla despite the massive tonnage disadvantage.

Although it does not qualify under your rules since there were only two Colonial Battlestars left in the universe, a top-ten arrival is definitely when the Pegasus arrives and sacrifices itself to assist the Galactica in saving the humans from New Caprica.

Oooooh you got some B5 in there, very nice.

Thank you.

Nice video, but it twigs into one of my biggest pet peeves about fleets in sci fi. Space is really big, but the fleets are always packed together. B5 seemed like the only show to get it right.

The fleet coming to the rescue at Exogol is my favorite. It gives me chills every time. I might had added another honorable mention - the Rebel Fleet arriving at Scarif in Rogue One.

Serenity made me give you a like. Well done.

In my humble opinion the arrival of the Rebel fleet at Scariff was better composed that the Exegol one...

I have to add... The Krill fleet showing up to chase away the Kaylon in The Orville Season 2. And the Klingon cleave ship with the combined fleet in Star Trek Discovery Season 2. And actually, the Kaylon fleet showing up (Rogue One Style) to help the Union against the combined Krill/Moclan fleet.

“Somebody fire !!!” 😂😂

Destiny 1's Taken King prologue cinematic has a great arrival - the arrival of Oryx and his fleet. No combat, just a giant angry space god and his fleet going towards saturn, and the blotting out of the sun to create the symbol of Oryx was a great finish.

That one episode of Star Gate I watched about the Stargate. It's really A Star Trek type transporter without the sparkle.😮 You go in and replicated on the other side..

Why not only one human captain has survived battle with a Mumbai fleet, he is behind me, you are in front of me, if your value your lives be somewhere else. No response other than leaving real fast. This is one of the most bad ass moments from the most amazing series very few know about but owe so much to Babylon 5. The best series finale ever.

No rebel fleet arriving on scariff feels a bit criminal

The Orville ha d a great fleet scene.

That was arriving to a wedding!

If you think the fleet arrival in the Last Skywalker was better than the rebel fleet alliance arriving on Scarif in Rogue One, you're crazy. People in my theatre laughed at the former and cheered at the latter.

Nice.

You forgot the many Fleet Battles, From Space Battleship Yamato

Love the Mass Effect fleets arriving

Based on your definition two fo my favorites would have been: Rebel Fleet arrival at Scariff & Klingons uncloak surrounding the Romulans in TNG "Shall we die together?"

The Covenant arriving over Reach didnt even make an honorable mention?

I know, it is not a fleet as mentioned in the video. But the uss enterprise saving spock in his time ship ....

Small pedantic correction, that isn't Cardassia, that's the system Chintoka in your honerable mentions.

Thank you for confirmation. I was also surprised to see the battle of Chintoka there. 😅
