Damn, last time I was this early the New Republic was still the Rebel Alliance!
Thank you😁
The First Order would run away screaming from the legends New Republic navy at its peak strength
And the reborn jedi order
Since one FO Dreadnaught can be destroyed by a fighter squadron, send in a bunch of B-wings and boom! Battle over. FO retreats.
EXACTLY seeing as this was the exact force i think that finished the Imperials off once and for all at Jakku which I think was mainly an armada of Star Destroyers of which several Super SDs were also there on the Imperial side and it still didn't help them. So agreed the FO would get stomped..
WHY you'd demil ENTIRELY AND not keep at least half or a 3rd of such a fleet and have the rest where could easily be activated to combat forces such as the FO is beyond me.. other then terrible Disney writing.
@@GAdmThrawn that's for bloody certainly.
@@robertagu5533 Ask Disney and see wha4 they say
The New Republic (in Legends) is honestly one of my most favorite Star Wars factions ever! And this video breaks down their facinating and cool Navy perfectly! :)
Much better than the hot garbage spewing from Disney
Seriously. The Disney New Republic couldn't keep their shit together for 30 years. Unbe-fucking-lievable.
@@wigglyziggly I'm sorry but the Eu new republic couldn't either
The Legends New Republic had to face multiple warlords, invasions, Thrawn, Dark Empire, and the Yuuzhan Vong, it took a civil war to take it out!
What the actual NR did? 30 years of nothing, letting their enemies mend their wounds, and suddenly the new badies got a fucking armada of ships bigger than the Empire (for some reason) and surrender instantly.
And this is why you don't go full reboot, also not full pacifist, mon Mothma (Mhotma? Motmha? I give up) wasn't dumb like that
The legends new republic didn't last 25 years
Star Destroyers are so iconic to the Empire that I sometimes forget that the New Republic used them.
In Legends it would seem that the New Republic was pretty much the only saint government to ever live within the history of Star Wars, they indeed learn a lot from the mistakes of the Old Republic and the Clone Wars. They were the ones to truely give the Galaxy the peace and freedom they ever wanted. But than, Thrawn, the Dark Empire and the Vong had to fuck everything again. Guess nothing lasts forever.
And then it went crazy and caused the second galactic civil war.
@@Gooberpatrol66: The Galaxy of Star Wars is cursed. 😔
Thrawn would have done a good job
Although they did a lot of damage and slowed down the transformation of the navy, the New Republic survived the Dark Empire and Thrawn. It was the Vong that truly ruined everything. And as Nathan puts it, everything went completely crazy with the second galactic civil war. Too crazy for me even, as I hated those events in the old canon, I think the writers really went too far by trying to top the Vong invasion (e.g. true danger to characters and general "edginess") with Darth Caedus, and it soured my relationship with the EU. Not definitively though, as I really enjoyed the Star Wars: Legacy comic series. :D
Thrawn and the Vong didn't do a thing. Thrawn knew that the Galaxy needed a strong decisive government to lead them against the Vong threat. Thus he did what he did. The Vong where successful only because the Republic let them be. The Republic's biggest dis advantage has always been week leadership.
The new republic is so much better than the resistance imo
Legends new republic> Disney new republic.
Disney's new republic isn't even a republic, it's like if rebel alliance didn't take any action after the battle of Endor and just disbanded themselves.
@@SC-ce3vp that's literally what happened. They won at Jakku and then they disbanded the military as per the Aftermath trilogy
The "canon" New Republic is super idiotic. They let an imperial military cult grow under their nose, building and plotting. Like the New Republic tolerated certain imperial groups but they made sure they weren't true threats. They went after Thrawn, the "canon" New Republic on the other hand more or less ignored the First Order.
Empirically so they didn't loose immediately it took 50 years of infighting
A shame we'll never get to see all this in some sort of Clone Wars animated series format. I've had a lot of fun playing the Thrawn's Revenge mod on Empire at War.
I know you'll get to this in the finale of the Vong sub-series. Won't stop me from going through the motions though. Anyways:
Can you breakdown what is by far the largest space battle in the entire franchise? *The* *Battle* *of* *Yuuzhan'tar!* I have made this request: Ninty-eight times.
I wish we got to see the New Republic fleet in canon, but they got demilitarized as hell by 90% and the rest got blown up by Death Star version 3.0.
It's actually pretty realistic all things considered.
Look at how massive the US military became by the end of WWII, yet a few years after, it demilitarized by *a lot* because the expectation was that there would be no more major wars with the creation of the UN and such, but the start of the Cold War boiling over into the Korean War (where the North Korean threat also wasn't taken seriously at first until it was almost too late) is what kick-started rebuilding.
@@HalfDemonInuyasha
The US did not demilitarize after WW2, they just evolve the technology over the years and no, not a lot of cut back, more like overspending. After WW2, the Soviet that occupied East Germany did not give back as promise by the allied agreement of leaving Germany to the new govt as a single country.
Instead, they permanently took East Germany and include countries they so call liberate as their own puppet govt. The US and Europe won't happy, they may create UN but US and Europe create NATO to deal the communist expansion.
The Korean war was really taken seriously when they found out that weapons and Mig planes supply by the Soviets and it was the American fear of Communities expansion prop them to join the conflict.
For Star Wars Legends, the New Republic have a lot of fear of imperial remnant, they still hold some portion of the galaxy and it took them many years of conflict before finally asking for peace.
In other word, a cold war begin with Imperial remnant and New republic. Fear is the only thing that force both faction to upgrade and expand Military/Navy force just like in real life.
@@HalfDemonInuyasha you are thinking of what happened after ww1 not ww2.
Im sure that leia and new republic survivors will make an alliance with other systems to fight the first order.
@@lokisg3 The U.S. actually did demilitarize heavily after World War II. It was in the late 1940s that the U.S. began to re-militarize in response to a growing Soviet threat.
Conclusion: Better AND larger than their canon counterparts.
Where'd you get the profile pick
Agreed. I mean seriously mon mothma's a bitch for disbanding 90% of the military, the yuuzhan vong would literally just waltz to the galaxy in a matter of 3 days!
@@sugdolomar Plus the ones they did have were underguned.The Radis is a example of this.
Not much manpower either.
@@sugdolomar Isn't that essentially what they did even against a militarized New Republic?
When you just refresh and end up with a new eckhartsladder vid
Yes pls
No u
This channel is never a disappointment
emperor palpatine Unlike your apprentices maul and Vader
Eckharts Ladder
Can you do a Battle Breakdown on how The Galactic Alliance and the Imperial Remnant liberated Coruscant from the Yuzhan Vong
Tim Bartsch YES PLEASE
@@georgelabe-assimo4365
Thanks man
It would be very interesting!
Make a video on how the lost it first.
Yeh
Nebula Star Destroyer vs Resurgent Battle Cruiser (30th try)
1v1, resurgent wins
2v1, that's a bit more interesting...
@@hvymtal8566 i think the nebula wins 1v2 most times, that ship could hold its own against an SSD
CarpalBeet he stopped doing versus videos.
The Nebula/Defender is not made to fight alone, neither along another of its kind, it needs a battlegroup with escort ships to perform at its best
Nebula vs Resurgent is probably a win for the last one(the Resurgent looks like it has at least something to fire on its back, it's not as mobile as a Bellator but hey) the real question is what do the First Order have except resurgents and SSDs to form an actual combat fleet?
A Nebula by itself had more staying power and firepower than an Imperial II. I think just one could give a Resurgent a challenge. The Resurgent might still win, but it is likely to take a pounding in the process.
Legends is better than current canon.
No argument there.
Plz clarify which part of Legends. Because Legends had some real garbage in it.
@@ufukcangencoglu2279 Better to have some garbage rather than have everything be garbage
@@tandemcharge5114 The New Canon also runs on that philosophy.
@@ufukcangencoglu2279 Why are you defending bad writing? New Canon is so shit. Eu had good books hell even the bad books had basic world building competence. New Canon movies literally made star wars a bronze egg how TF do you make the star wars brand not make money.
What always bugged me is that starting with the NJO, we really don't get any illustrations of the vehicles. I would have loved to see what a Ranger gunship or the next iteration of the X-Wing looked like, and we just don't get any pictures to go off of.
Me too
Ping Yeah I had hoped for a sourcebook covering the NJO era. Such a wasted opportunity.
I love the Legends New Republic, quality Warship and Starfighters.
The New Republic preserves in every strategies, and is not afraid to stand up during battles.
Can you do a video on the history of the imperial navy? It’s early history and shifting command from different officers like Tagge, Vader, Thrawn etc would be interesting to see.
The New Republic's (1km) Star Destroyers needs to be in Episode 9.
You mean nebula?
Hahahaha
Nah, I mean Nutella bruh
The New Republic is the best!
Yep
They let themselves get destroyed by the first order
@Mark Martinez nah your fake
@@locop5757 and?
It‘s really nice to revisit all that stuff through your videos. Also I‘m always looking forward to the outro. That thing is great.
I really miss Legends (ok, only the good parts).
I think I should feel bad when a dog with an imperial hat knows more about Star Wars than me
I don't think that's an Impiral hat bro. It looks more like a hat with a mic symbol in it.
The Dark Knight na m8 that’s an Imps hat
@@thedarkknight727 It's an Imperial officers cap.
Its a cool hat.
Doge with an Imperial hat knows more aboht Star Wars than Disney
Great idea and concept! Thanks for doing this. I hope you continue it all the way through. Playing Thrawn's Revenge I have learned that in that mod the MC80B to me is a friggin tough badger that doesn't screw around. It is smaller but so versatile, tougher, and heavily armed. It is my work horse in that mod.
Amazing video and yea the rebellion had an amazing history through the legends series and unlike the old republic the new republic never failed the name and government changed but the ideas they fought and died for where never forgotten
Excellent video! Makes me want to create my own fanzine based on this.
One more thing, never, never, stop the ending of your videos.
PLEASE cover the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances!!!!!!! That would be fantastic
Attempt #2 Mon remonda ship history/lore
The Mandalorian Neo Crusaders vs The Yuuzhan Vong
Or
How Boba Fett led the Mandalorians to victory against the Yuuzhan Vong
-Craig Newsome
4000 years into the past, a Mando'ad Neo Crusader task force was almost wiped out by a single Yorik-et, soooo yeah, not a chance.
Oh well guess there's the second option
Excellent video covering things! I would really appreciate if you did this to to other SW factions as well, it would be interesting to learn the evolution of the navy after the Vong War.
i really don't mean to take shots at the new canon lol but can i just say i way prefer the republic navy and the plot around it more in legends than i do in the new canon
Truth tends to hurt, but it's a fact that Legends was a more intelligent move that canon, i mean, who the fuck in their right mind would disband an entire armada with an entire enemy force out there somewhere, Disney would, that's who.
@@xxvaltielxx1789 Because the NR simply didn'T consider the First Order an actual threat.
@@ufukcangencoglu2279 Dumbest decisión ever from a Galactic size government, even dumber considering that Mothma lived the Clone Wars and was aware of how Palpatine did his power grab and how many resources the Empire had AND how many sycophants were at the head of said Empire's military who also happened to run away to the Unknown Regions with said resources and military, the New Republic deserved it's fate, it's like they were asking for it.
@@xxvaltielxx1789 Disney would have quickly given in at the first verbal threat.
And if we had Thrown and Acbar working together against the vong how long would the war have lasted
I'd give the Vong one battle before total capitulation.
Realistically? A year at the most, maybe two. In the novels, ackbar planned only one battle (he died of old age almost right after it), because he had been previously forced to retire, and that battle was a decisive victory for the republic: entire vong fleet destroyed, it's commander killed, minimal casualties on the republic side, don't think they lost anything larger than a fighter in fact, and the vong never have a reserve force to draw on again in any battle afterwards. Battle of Ebaq 9. Of course ackbar wasn't the republic's only military genius: Wedge Antilles (makes obi-wan look like an amateur when it comes to trolling), Garm Bel-Ibis (was one of the few commanders that had been able to surprise thrawn on occasion), kre'fey (bothan admiral who was extremely aggressive, easily most aggressive commander the republic had, probably would have exterminated the vong though).
Problem wasn't really the commanders, but the politicians.
Fey'lya Mainly
@@johnlavery3433 viqi shesh as well and the quarren senator who later called himself chancellor (forget the jerk's name). In some ways, those two were even worse than fey'ylla.
This was a great video and I would love to see one done in this style about the Imperial/Imperial Remnant as well.
Eck, I honestly love your livestreams and videos, anyone can tell you really care about quality content. Keep it up -Huge Fan
Excellent breakdown. I look forward to your Empire at War livestream.
I hope Petrus gives u special place up above for the link to the outro music. Video is pleasing as always
Rundown of the Ships and vehicles of the UN Spacey from SDF Macross please.
There was only three ships.The Macross cannon command ship carrier and space battleship.As to vehicles there were the VF-2ja VF-2ss VF-2SS sap special VF-2ss Sap Vf-1ms metal siren VF-xx zentran space fighter AGA-1jf.Now ground vehicles Monster II Phalanx II Defender EX Tomahawk II.Thats it according to the Macross II role p[laying game.
@@thunberbolttwo3953 that's the Macross 2 timeline. I mean original main macross timeline.
@@barrybend7189 there is hardly any material ther to.There is the sdf 1 armd series Vf series varitech the super one armored one qf 3000 ghost.The excaliber gladiator mac II raider x and spartyan destroid.Not to mention the zentradi battlep[od artillery pod heavy and light officers pod male and female power armor and theater scout.Thats it.
Great video and the legends new republic is awesome and cool.
I want 1 hour documentary on each of the Mandator Star Dreadnaughts, at Anaxes, Ixtlar, Kuat and other locations. A full breakdown of their crew and captains, how they got destroyed and everything. Heck lets just make a new Star Wars movie based on that.
What was great about legends story arcs is that it made sense, in TFA , the destruction of one system ( Hosnian) brought an end to the New Republic
I had completely forgotten about the majestic heavy cruiser till this video. One of my fave EU ships.
Disney: "What a well-written lore. It would be a shame. If someone. Was to. Erase it!"
Nice one always wanted to know about them
Another great video your channel is awesome!, Would you consider doing a break down on Imperial forces during the different states that the Empire's Navy faced from the Imperialation of the Republic to the Imperial Remnant that would be awesome please consider it thank you in advance!!!
That doggo at the end
GIMME
I love how much more fleshed out the Legends continuity lore is for stuff like this. Plus imo it also makes a hell of a lot more sense than what they did with the Disney canon. I still don't get why they'd choose to limit themselves like that from a story telling point of view. I mean....I know why they did it, so they could have the galaxy not change at all in the last 30 years so they can have all that big change happen in the movies and be brought about by their new characters.
Thank you, Eckhart's Ladder, I've always wanted to know more about the New Republic space navy fleet since I've only read parts and some of the very beginning of that era.....!!! It's a shame that Disney chose to take the story after "Return of the Jedi" so differently that the original books and lore. They didn't have to be so different. This is one of my favorite, favorite videos on RUclips of all time......!!!!! :D
I hope the 'Resistance' Show explores the New Republic deeply
Disney: No
I wouldn't hold my breath.
2 Harrower Dreadnaughts vs 1 Imperial Star Destroyer
Replicators vs a Unified Star Wars universe (360th try now, *_I._** WILL NEVER EVER GIVE UP!!!)*
Do an after the new republic history video
New republic fleet (canon)
1st question, where the frack are they!?
2nd question WHERE THE FRACK ARE THEY!?!?
The New Republic army was on vacation during the sequel triology. We never saw them.
@EckheartsLadder Could you do a video on the MC80b line of cruiser? Also a video on the Agressor Class Star Destroyer would be great. Have a nice day!
I liked this video so much, I watched it while it was still stuck in 360p.
Do a video about the Solo and Skywalker Family throughout the Legends continuity.
you should make a playlist with all the vong history, since is so difficult to track it down
That poor doggo at the end. So abuse. Much annoy. Wow. 😂😂😂
Great video would love a video like you did with Thrawn but on Yulaten Wolfe instead
God your channel has really boomed. I think I subbed before your channel blew up.
Very interesting Video.
I learned a Lot. Thanks.
I really like the old republic and their history/story/look I wish there were some movies about that time
Captain Shack VS Admiral Ecks!
(Either a Battle breakdown or a Battle in EAW)
Edit:Mods may be used
To make it better give shack the Rebels and eck the Empire
Shack would totally win!
@@raulbaez8526 Yeah, but Shack tends to get distracted a lot and misses things, most times he notices that he lost units way after they were killed and don't get me started with his resource management or complete disregard for Unit strenghts and weaknesses, he also tries to multitask more than he can handle.
Don't get me wrong, i love his content and enjoy every moment of it, since i can no longer play EaW because of some life circumstances.
@@xxvaltielxx1789 true and i totally agree. However if he didn't have to talk at the same time of playing he would when. Remember we are only watching him when he is multitasking.
I mean more than normal although if shack had to play against Corey he would probably lose
Great video, very informative
I love the New Republic and by association the Galactic Alliance Navies if the Disney canon had just the Fifth Fleet the First Order would be toast.
Maybe you can cover the consequences of Starkiller base nuking those planets? Your discussion of Vong invasion of Coruscant reminded me of this
*History & Overview of the the NEW REPUBLIC NAVY | Star Wars Canon*
The WHOLE kriffing thing got disbanded by one insane nutjob from Chandrila who ALSO happened to be the new Chancellor of the New "already beginning to get corrupted once again" Republic, then the remaining puny fleet got totally wiped out by the "Imaginary" Imperial Remnant who not only was alive and kicking, but that also had upgraded the shit out of it's hardware and was bent on retaking the Galaxy. *THE END*
* *_slow clapping_* * Brilliant Disney! just brilliant!!! Subarashii!
I just saved Eck an entire script for that video, i give him all the credit though.
Do a Yuuzhan Vong invasion of Fluidic Space and war against Species 8472! 54th try.
Can you do ground battles during the galactic civil war (new republic era)
Hey Ecks, was there a Twitch only stream for Empire at War or did you not have the time for it?
For the New Republic. 😉
You are the best youtuber.
During... pretty sure almost all the Rebel/New Republic SDs were taken after the Endor battle. Around either Death Star battle they were nowhere near capable of taking a whole SD and the garrison within without them activating it's Self Destruct with only the tiniest handful of exceptions since they was STILL the ragtag Rebels back at that battle period.
Two or three at Endor, yeah. And several more in the three years following.
Can you do the Corellian crisis of 18 ABY? If you ever cover the LOTF era I think it's important to cover the predecessor Corellian crisis
Fantastic video a complete change
I like to think that the new republic fleet in canon is just like this one with the addition of starhawks and MC85s aswell as the Rz-2 A wings, T-70 and T-85 X wing
I thought this video was only going to last 30secs. Then I realised you were talking about the novels and not the resistance.
I kinda miss what happened in the Star wars universe after the legacy era.
Ooo, we need some of those Era 3 ships for Armada.
I find it fascinating that the New Republic used Imperial Star Destroyers. How cool would it have been to see the Resistance have one in the new trilogy.
Death Star vs Borg Cube PLEASE!
Just a legend
I would like to see a Galactic Alliance navy video
Also, the Endurance and the Nebula-Class Star Destroyers are the strongest Star Destroyer we currently know of.
Not counting the Imperium class Ultra SD.
Spartans vs N7 or Pilots (Titanfall) and UNSC Marines vs System Alliance Marines
Can you do a battle breakdown for the Yuzhan Vong War's Second Battle of Coruscant.
Could you do a vs episode on the Allegiance vs. the Resurgence?
Do a Battle Breakdown of the Yuuzhan Vong heading to the Fluidic Space to fight Species 8472. Do it now!
:"3 my New Republic favorite
UNSC (pre war) vs Cylon (second war)
Need more info on new republic stuff. Land troops and imsges, organisation of the other military branches the works!
Can't wait for the vong series. Haha
can you do a bsg battle of new caprica. made no sense to sacrifice Pegasus but still one of my favorite battles in sci fi
Profundity vs Rebel one
T-70 Xwing vs Ewing
MC85 vs Allegiance class
How about doing this for the imperial Remnant Navy, Imperial Remnant Army and the New Republic army
I know they should've been making the new republic & it's navy HUGE & WELL EQUIPPED!!! (like how the ESD from Independence Day Resurgence was)
Thrawn vs Ender (Ender's Game)
TheMindRobber42 agreed
Sounds fascinating.
ELKHART you should check out a game called Stellaris. Look into the Star Wars, & Halo mods it's got going on as well they are really cool. I feel like you might enjoy it. Especially because you like both those franchises so much and also have a addiction for Star ships and fleets and stuff. Also the same people who made Europa Universalis 4 made it so it's that type of game. Won't hurt to check out.
John Soltero he should also check out space engineers. There’s Star Wars mods, as well as blueprints for SW ships
Can the UNSC and the Covenant survive and beat the Angel Zeruel from Evangelion on Earth when the Covenant first attacked? Zeruel appears out of nowhere in this and is laying waste to everything and everyone that it sees and gets in it's way while trying to look for Lilith on this version of Earth to start the next Impact
Notification Squadron.
Is the NR losing Borsk Fey'lya really a deterrent though?
