    He was defeated numerous times in increasingly embarrassing ways and then in the end was killed via a tactic that had no right to work, and if it did then someone else should have done it three-years earlier. We only got to see him actually be who he actually was outside the books in the 2d Clone Wars animation for like 10 minutes and that's just sad.

    The CIS did have non-droid infantry but sadly only for officers, shock troops and ship crews. If they balanced it out and truly unified the whole military might of their worlds in tangent with the droids then he could make an effective sword and shield tactic with such units. Droids should be the sword and the organics the shield, but also he must alter and switch between the two to keep the Republic off balance then it would be an interesting war following cause when you have different races with their own unique cultures, technology, language and strategy but molded and made as one with each gap covering one another with good coordination then it could work. Whether they could win the war this way I wouldn't say given that Dooku and Sidious ran the the show, but if they weren't there that is another story cause Grievous knows the weaknesses of his droids and while he will use them he will be open to command living breathing warriors and soldiers under his command.

    @@datguy8006 I think a large part of it is general space opera tropes clashing with reality. The former generally has robot armies not be super effective and act like organic ones because that would undermine the drama. It's really hard to get attached to individual pieces of equipment when they're the exact same as the next 2000 that are being pumped off the line. It's also really hard to take into account all the massive changes that a fully robotic army would result it: for starters, morale would go out the window for frontline troops. That takes out a ton of story potential, for stuff on the stress soldiers undergo or the morality of war. Robots wont question orders they think are immoral, they dont suffer psychological trauma like organics and they dont mutiny.

    Can you imagine Grievous sitting in his office - Using his 4 hands to multi-task to fill in spreadsheets, paperwork, forming fleets, battle groups, army rosters etc? With a big mug of cyborg coffee on his desk, he puts one pencil down, uses one hand to move it to his face mask - try to sip it, then throw it away as he remembers he doesn't drink coffee anymore - and continues working? Just doing all the organizational paperwork to get things sorted. Somehow it is an amusing thought to think of - General Grievous doing paperwork. Side note: Imagine how dangerously lethal of a job it is to be General Grievouses personal secretary?

To one that goes like "Well im done for today see next week folks" some 50% percent off the time. The only time's he ever fights is he know's either his opponents are weak, or has a huge advantage against them or just arrogance.

    Yeah, a lot of Clone Wars content, not just the TV series, usually tends to focus so much on Grevious combat abilities on the ground and his Jedi killing skills that I too didn't realize how much of a tactical genius he was being able to bring all these elements together. Although, when most battles play out as both sides sending their troops at each other and trying to kill them all there's really not that much nuance in strategy. Sure there are usually primary targets like bases and Droid Foundries, but they usually just blast their way to them or have a diversion so a small team can sneak in to take over or blow it up.

    General Grievous was the Supreme Commander of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. It's entirely military operated, both in battle and in logistics, in accordance with his strategies, doctrines, and directions. He can be compared, given his rank and role, with legendary real world Supreme Commanders like Georgy Zhukov and Dwight D. Eisenhower. I have quite a bit of confidence that Grievous could've won the war for the CIS if not for the fact that Palpatine constantly sabotaged or ordered a halt to Grievous' plans, technical developments, and advances (take for example the battle of Kamino... if not for the, almost certainly Palpatine sabotage, leaking of part of Grievous' call to the Republic he would've totally crippled the GAR morale in foul swoop). Grievous did a very good job with what he had available to him, especially considering he routinely had to go up against space wizards with magic powers (who almost always were the sole factor that ruined what would've otherwise been his victories). Grievous would be a nightmare to face as a commander in a conventional war (where there aren't any force users involved to save his opponents like a constant foil).

    Sure but the important part of Grievous was that even the jedi couldn't stop him, which terrified the entire galaxy. But TCW show intentionally contradicts this. Matthew Wood (Grievous' vocie actor) said in a featurette of one of the episodes that Grievous is good but when he comes across a Jedi he is "backed up against the wall" because of "stupid droids". Which then contradicts Grievous' reputation as a jedi killer and the threat of droids as a whole to the galaxy, because where did the chaos come from then?

    My favorite tactical moment of Grevious was when he was attacking a republic world, and was having trouble dealing with the defending fleet. So he ordered fighters and long-range guns to target evacuating civilian and medical transports, forcing the republic forces to shield the ships with their own hulls. 10/10 would violate intergalactic laws of war again.

    “Except for the legendary Grand Admiral Thraw, whose only weakness was the lack of natural resistance to knives” AAAAAAND that’s my biggest problem with OG Thraw. For how much people complain about self-inset I think that Thraw gets too much of a pass on that. I understand why, he is a fascinating character, specially at the time the Thraw Trilogy came (and still today actually) when the only depicted Imperial officers were either practically robots (some literally) that followed 01 logic of obedience, and when demonstrated some character trait it would be either petty personal ambition and pride or fear, and not even fear of the Rebellion, but fear of punishment from someone above the chain of command. Then came Thraw. A complex personality and a almost “benevolent dictator”, a “enlightened despot” of sorts. Someone that led by example, that didn’t killed his subordinates for failing but showed them how to learn with their mistakes, someone that was interested in studying art and philosophy, so that he could understand the cultures he was fighting, and whom didn’t run on “scorched earth” upon victory, but welcomed the surrendering systems into his own mini-empire. He also came from a different background, had to fight his way to the top against all the prejudices of Imperial Hierarchy against non-humans and joined the Empire due to a, at the very least, sympathetic motivation. And, of course, was basically invincible on the battlefield. You almost want him to be the protagonist. And, in a sense, he kinda is. He is more of a anti-hero than a villain. And I’m with all of you, I love him, and wished he was better integrated into canon. BUT He is undoubtedly too perfect. I don’t even know if he have any character flaw, aside from being on the opposite side of the heroes. That’s why his defeat and last minute death came so much out of nowhere to me. Felt like he wasn’t defeated by the heroes, but by “chance”, and by “chance” I mean, plot armor. Because it was the only way it could have happened. He didn’t had much of a flaw that the characters could exploit to beat him. And yes, this element makes it for the perfect villain! In the first moments... The protagonists would have to learn how to beat him, and they cannot do if he doesn’t merely “appear to be invincible” but IS basically invincible. Otherwise, what’s the merit? If I would re-introduce him into canon, I would give him some weakness/flaw of emotional nature. Maybe give him the “Holmes flaw” (the Arthur Doyle OG Holmes) even with his “theoretical understanding” of others, he is too analytical and cold to comprehend true emotional fidelity, which is the only thing Leia, Han and Luke have it better. Idk. That’s always a “impopular opinion” I had, but if you bring it up you get dogpilled, because it’s either full love to the character or the minimal criticism is viewed as “hating him”. But calm down, I DO love the character.
