    The Anaxes War College System is a good idea but as it is implemented though it does not go far enough or include a number of items though. It divides the fleet into only 7 classifications, does not IMHO differentiate enough at the high end, nor does it account for support ships, small craft like fighters/shuttles, space stations, planetary assets/vehicle types.

      Theres not enough ships in the 2000-16000 meter range to justify more ship classes. Especially since SSD's dont tend to be treated as strong as they ought to be for their size. Plus I think your classification is too relatively rigid, since it doesnt give as much room to varying ship roles (i.e. secutor was considered a star destroyer despite being 2.2 km due to its light armament)
      Personally I think the biggest issue is its only based on length, despite that being a horrible way of measuring ship size. The executor and Eye of Palpatine have similar length, but the Eye of Palpatine is many times larger due to its shape.

    I feel like, if the empire had a lot more ships that were dedicated anti fighter ships as well as more point defense on there larger ships, than they wouldn't have fallen so easily if not fallen at all to the rebels. I also believe that the grand moffs shouldn't have had so much power. Especially when it came to building up fleets. Bigger, isn't always better. If you throw a victory class up against a squadron of Y-wing's and X-Wings, then as long as the Y-wings around the back or bottom of the ship, then the rebels win almost every time. But if you sent Y-wings and X-wings at a Karrack or IPV-Patrol frigate, then the empire wins.

  • @321gman3
    @321gman3 7 лет назад

    A Star Dreadnought that was built before the Empire, well before the Empire actually, was the one that the Hutt Clans possessed in their main battle fleet. They picket it up from another civilization and repurposed it for their own use.
    It was actually built several hundred or thousands of years before the Empire and was still in service at the time as the Hutts never decomissond it, instead they would update the technology within it.

  • @Warsie

    4:37 thats a bellator-class, not a mandator-II. Mandator-IIs are basically the same ship as Mandator-I, they only have long-range hyperdrives installed on them.
    Also, the dreadnaughts specified int he example earlier which you show are Rendili StarDrive dreadnaughts, which were made like 200 BBY so they wouldnt be pre-ruusan ship classes.
    dreadnOught = super star destroyer. dreadnaUght - the rendili stardrive dildo ships. the spelling is a giveaway.
    EDIT 2: you forgot this ship. its never explained if this is a mandator or procurator class, but it's a star dreadnought which as used by a republic member world
    www.theforce.net/swtc/dagger.html#battleship4
    I forgot: the empire didn't necessarily have less, but larger ships compared to the old republic. the empire was more militarist compared to the old republic, so it could afford to have both a shitload of smaller ships for system and sector patrol, as well as strategic forces with star dreadnoughts, battleships and cruisers.
