As a maritime history buff, whenever I hear about sci fi battlecruisers being slow or plodding or anywhere near the archetypical "mighty glacier" I shudder. What defined them in real life was comparatively higher speed over their contemporary battleship cousins. Often achieved by thinning armor protection and upping engine power.

@@ExcaliburHeavyBattlecruiser You're playing damage control Resurgent. You know that freighter was hit countless times, but somehow resisted the firepower of a ship that wrecked a corellian corvette in no time. That freighter is protected by an armor from Elsewhere, a ship that you were unable to prevent from reaching orbit and leave the system, might I had, despite the fact two of your TIEs were in close air support mission on site, and the freighter was hijacked by a slow ass heavy cargo ship that stayed in orbit for something like 15 minutes straight, while it was getting boarded by pirates. Oh, and that TIE you shut down? It was piloted by _your_ prisoner, who escaped thanks to _your_ traitor, and who was able to easily destroy almost all of one section of your broadside battery: someone forgot to design hull-tight shields for you. What a shame. I have no trouble believing you actually _couldn't_ catch that Mon Cal, since you didn't even bother to try when you met her first, despite the fact you outnumbered her already, and she was standing there, stationary above her base. You didn't even fire one turbolaser in her direction. What kind of Destroyer are you? A Shy Destroyer? You've got some nice weaponry on paper but all we've seen so far is a TIE that you needed two missiles to wreck, and who destroyer about a dozen of your batteries in one row. Pretty underwhelming that's for sure. Momma Imperial isn't impressed: she can bombard planets on her own, she's as fast as the Millenium Falcon, tracking that thing down for days without sweating. It takes a freaking asteroid field for days to kill her. She tears through corvettes and frigates in seconds when they don't have plot armour. She never had any of her crew deserting in mission. No fighter was ever able to destroy any or her batteries without taking out the shields first. She flown dozens of TIEs hurling towards her enemies, while you seem to have to respect a rule that forces you to launch only 4 TIEs in a row, no more.

The only reason everyone calls Mon Calamari ships the best in Star Wars is that the Givins’ ships are so sidelined, I don’t think we have the name of a single Givin ship model. For those who don’t know, the Givin are a species from Legends who come from a planet where tidal forces cause the atmosphere to pool up in certain places, creating a vacuum on much of the planet’s surface. The Givin can survive in a vacuum for a short time, but they also have to use math to predict when they will have air, making them a very math-savvy species. They eventually started applying their mastery of math to shipbuilding, creating starships that at least rivaled Mon Calamari engineering.

#AskEck How would a confrontation/fight between the Nebula Star Destroyer and Starhawk Battleship turn out? And which is more well designed?

@nicholaswong6737

5 жыл бұрын

Justin Trujillo the Nebula is better designed/more powerful. The Nebula was created way later in the Legends NR era, and had better firing arcs, better shielding, and better fighters. Assuming The Starhawk had the same shield generators as the ISD (because the starhawk was literally thrown together with ISD parts) then the shielding on the Nebula would be vastly better. The starhawk also was active during 6-7 ABY, which meant it still carried rebel fighters, (A wing, Xwing Ywing probably no Bwings) if it even had a hangar, while the Nebula carried the next generation fighters (Ewing, Defender, Kwing T75 Xwing, J-Stealth Xwing). The 80 turbos, 20 Ion cannons and 10 concussion missile launchers are easily more firepower than the Starhawk could feasibly have. The only advantage the Starhawk could have is the stronger tractor beam, but that would probably be no effect in this fight. (The only reason a starhawk was able to pull down a SSD was because an entire fleet destroyed the engines, secondary engines, and it had a huge gravity assist from the planet of Jakku) I doubt it can normally pull a capital ship the size of a Nebula down normally without all those factors.

The Resurgent-class Star Destroyer is a fast and agile ship. It could travel even faster than a First Order TIE Fighter if need be, however, such speed came at the cost of maneuverability. At top speeds, the ship needed a lot of counter-thrust, for even the smallest maneuver, thus in the hands of a reckless commander, the Resurgent could find itself out of control and even destroyed. The ship required the most experienced commanders in order to be piloted appropriately.

1. Would the Bulwark III be considered the best Rebel/NR battlercruiser in Lucas Canon? It is 2500 meters. Meanwhile, in Disney Canon, the MC85 is 3000 meters and has incredible shields. We do not know very much in terms of what the Mediator looks like or it's precise size. As for the CIS, what about the Lucrehulk?

Battle cruisers in classic navy doctrine were ships armored like a heavy cruiser with cruiser speed but the guns of a battleship (a star destroyer). The idea was they would engage cruisers and hunt them down but run if faced with a battleship. The only time they would engage a battleship was in support of other friendly battleships. When they would go it alone you would have massive losses like the HMS Hood to the Bismarck. The idea in the Star Wars universe (as well as many others) that a battlecruiser was the biggest thing out there is just insane.

The battlecruiser concept in naval architecture has always been a hybrid one: Outrun dreadnaughts and outgun cruisers and other similar caputal ships. BCs in the British and US Navies were intended to operate in semi independant squadrons as part of a Grand Fleet or independantly cruising the oceans chasing down commerce raiders. In Star Trek you see this concept in the Klingon D6, The Kzinti BCs ans CCs, the Romulan Birds of Prey and the Federation Heavy Cruisers such as the Hood and Excelsiors. The battlecruiser role is partly served in SW by the ISDs and ISD2s.

I miss the Imperious class from Legacy. Such a sleek looking little ship capable of holding its own against an entire fleet of Paelleon class SDs.

The Mediator Class was in the z3r0x mod for Star Wars Empire At War: FoC. Unless it's purely fan-art you could use that as a reference image.

I would say the Allegiance is my favourite of these four battle cruisers, not just a bias opinion but because of familiarity with using it often in Empire at War long as you can keep producing them at 11,000 credits each. I have no doubt the Resurgent is a great ship but we have not seen much of it in major fleet action either. Perhaps if there is a First Order Mod I would check it out. The Praetor always struck me as a great bulky ship with that roll of a tower but can easily be overwhelmed when bombers and sustained fire are brought against it since I have destroyed many that way.

I feel like the Praetor if refitted with armaments could probably go toe to toe with the allegiance but I think it would lose handily to the others unless it had something crazy put on it

For those wondering, in real life a battlecruiser was sort of a middle ground between the battleship and heavy cruiser. A battlecruiser was well-armed and armored, but not quite as well as a proper battleship. However, it made up for this by being much faster than a battleship.

My headcanon is: The Praetor actually was set up with the ability to be REMODELED to have more weapons. Just in case the reformation was ever determined obsolete. So they made a ship with the necessary power generation and shields for a ship that size (at least at the time), and left it under-armed to avoid breaking the treaty. While perhaps at least leaving a reasonable number of redundant power conduits lying around at certain points to where you COULD potentially add the "rest" of the guns if it became necessary. Obviously, it would not be suited to adding on turreted weaponry larger or more draining than the heaviest weapons available at the time it was designed and the demonstration model built (and obviously being no better suited to slapping on fixed weaponry than any other capital ship). And thus the Praetor 2 was essentially just the Praetor updated to be able to support more modern weapons, and coming standard with more weapons, but which was still left with "empty slots" on its hull that could be further augmented because, perhaps at the time it first started going into production, there was still debate on just how much the Reformation should be flouted and/or how going too far past it may result a bad image for the Republic. And thus, the Praetor 2 came, in "base form" still under-armed, but still able to have more guns added to bring it to what you would expect from a ship that size if that were done. Who knows, with all the fleets engaging each other and mildly damaged vessels that needed repair, a number of Praetor 2s that got light damage may have been sent in for quick repairs that also silently added the "remaining" guns. Edit: Oh, don't get me wrong. The more modern vessels likely are better battlecruisers usually, since they in their stock form don't require "sending in for repairs" to actually bring them up to their intended spec. But at the same time, I'm not sure I really consider the First Order "Star Destroyer" to really be a "Battlecruiser," as well, they don't seem to really treat it as such. Instead, its more like the First Order just wants to say that every ship class is bigger now, because TARKIIIIIIIIN and all that (hey, they made a PLANET into a superweapon just to show up those "puny" Death Stars, and then made the Mega Star Destroyer to show up those old executors, so yeah, this is a thing they do).

I would argue a battlecruiser in the RL sense would make tons of sense for the Empire. IRL battlecruisers were generally meant as anti-cruiser ships or to have a capital ship present when a battleship isn't available or able to do the job. Basically you make a ship that has the speed of a cruiser and has either the armor of a BB or the weaponry of a BB, or in this case a dreadnought. A ship that is able to keep up with or chase down smaller ships (like the Rebellion favored) but still outgun or be too tough for them would be the bane of the republic. Just imagine a ship able to chase down and destroy anything, including Mon Cal cruisers 1v1 but able to run away from anything that outguns it which is only the rare dreadnought. They need less crew and are cheaper to make so Dreadnoughts like the SSD can be used for defending key installations/planets or assaulting the most heavily defended planets while battlecruisers could be used to patrol hot zones, lead groups of SDs, escort interdictor cruisers and destroy what they catch, due to their speed they can be an emergency response force or lead one, etc. Imagine if the Interdictor was actually a battlecruiser? Instead of being a relatively weak ship that needs defending it would be more powerful than most ships except for the larger Mon Cal cruisers. I'd argue such a ship would be about as perfect an anti-rebellion ship as one could get. Especially with a good complement of fighters and anti fighter turrets.

Also if you go back to Sci-fi universes compared, how about Marvel/X-Men Mutants vs Force Users?

What about the mc80 modified battlecruiser

I do love the Allegiance, one of my favourite imperial ships. The raw firepower of that ship.

Eck - how would you rank the Praetor if its components (armaments, etc.) were upgraded?

I want to here some people opinions. What ship do you think would win in a one on one fight, a Imperial Allegiance battle cruiser or the first orders resurgent class start destroyer (with no star fighter support)

This is a bit different, but what about a video about the Time Lords? They've got some pretty badass lore and I'd like to know how you think they compare to the Galactic Empire or the Forerunners, etc

You should do "which 4 sci fi factions has the BEST DREADNOUGHT"

The Allegiance really does show its Allegiance to the Galactic Empire.

Eckharts ladder you should do a vs episode on Star Wars vs elite dangerous

Don't forget the best one, the Centurion!

What was the space battle footage from? It is cool.

In most SciFi universes "Battlecruiser" is used to describe some sleek looking capital ship and is sometimes more or less synonymous with battleship. Does the Star Wars universe have a ship type that is comparable in its roll within the fleet to the original RL battlecruiser concept?

It was me, Krennic. It was me!

Dunno bout anyone else but the Mon Cal Mediator sounds like 1 great Carrier/Battleship. Seein it's well thought out and can fulfill BOTH roles really well an proved itself against some of what I'm assuming were the best and most formidable Star Destroyers of the time.

So here's a question that l keep going back and forth on. Which is better a Crusader Corvette or a Lancer Frigate? The way I see it is this, The Crusader is cheaper if we go off of Wookieepedia. It has decent cargo space, a great number of Lasers for its size, a small crew requirement, and a class 1 hyperdrive. But in looking at the Lancer it also has good cargo space, Great laser coverage and can have a class 1 hyperdrive. It losing when it comes to crew size however that doesn't matter all that much. The Crusader seems to be punching up in weight class, I'm not really sure though.

Are there actual cannon number for the Praetor's weapons? Becuase the ISD does not look like it has anywhere near 100 weapons emplacements, but it does. So the few spotty weapons emplacements - in areas where the ISD's hull is largely smooth(ish) - should not be an indicator. The power generation was massive I thought, as the generator was used to power a virtually impenetrable shield on Hoth...? I think a little bit of renovation - adding hangers, adding weapons emplacements - would make the Praetor very deadly.

#AskEck can you explain why there is a "small" number of heavy weapons (i.e. turbo lasers and/or batteries) on capital ships? I've never understood the low numbers on such large and larger ships.

What's the purpose of the giant ass barrel at the back of the praetor battlecruiser? Is there an in-universe explanation?

Hey eck. What program did you use in order to make the dread vs dead video?
